Democrats: Conflict at the top?

Washington – Rumors have been swirling around that Wasserman Schultz was not in President Obama’s top tier of candidates to sit at the helm of the Democratic National Committee.

A source within the Democratic Party who is a close associate of Wasserman Schultz has told the Shark Tank the details about the process that took place when the vetting of prospective candidates for the DNC chair.

The source told the Shark Tank that, “she (Wasserman Schultz) was not the first choice,” and that Wasserman Schultz feverishly lobbied her case of being a sitting ‘Jewish’ congresswoman in a very safe Democratic district.  According to the source, Obama was pressured into picking Wasserman Schultz because she impressed upon him that he needed her as a loyal foot soldier to run cover him and shore up his dwindling support with the Jewish voters as well as with women.

But while Obama has been able to rely on Wasserman Schultz to carry his water, the President has grown increasingly annoyed with the polarizing manner in which she attacks her political opposition-a style that has galvanized her Republican opponents and chased many of those coveted ‘Independents’ away.

It seems as if the relationship has soured to the point that according to the source, “He does not want her in the DNC anymore.”

Apparently, President Obama had discussions with the DNC Chairwoman regarding her approach, even telling her, “Don’t forget you work for me.”

It’s not about you, its about me. – attributed to President Barack Obama to Debbie Wasserman Schultz, as per our source.

    Therein lies the rub, how much goemrnvent is too much goemrnvent. We agree that there is a need for some regulations, the issue becomes when the goemrnvent invades every aspect of life. Society needs rules and laws what it does not need is a Father Figure looking over us.Right now, we in some cases have 3 or 4 goemrnvent entities for the same job. For instance, you have in some instances you have the city, country, state and federal agencies all to regulate the same thing. Isn’t wise to cut out the excess, specially since they all do the same thing. What Republican advocate is removing one layer of this onion in some instances. Allowing the states and counties and cities to do what they are doing but locally and more efficiently. A limited FEDERAL goemrnvent, this was the vision of our Founding Fathers. What we have today, is a Federal Agency dictating rules, a State agency created to enforce the Federal agency rules, and adding their own, County agencies created to make sure Federal and State agencies are complied with and in some larger cities a city agency to comply and enforce Federal, State and County rules and regulations and all of them add more rule and regulations. How is this effective or even helpful. Imagine what removing a single layer of this will do for the country. I’m sure you must have heard some political leaders say they wish they ruled like in China. this is an acknowledgement of the problems we face, in China what the dictators say is what goes, period. We don’t have to be like China to improve goemrnvent, we just need to trim it to what it was supposed to be.Not no goemrnvent but less goemrnvent.
