Two Quick Lessons in Calling it Like You see it.

First, from CA Rep. Loretta Sanchez regarding what the GOP is doing about economic legislation (such as the jobs bills):



Yeah, might just be Congressional Republicans, especially in the Senate , even say that out loud where regular folks can hear, too.

From DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz on voter suppression and the GOP:

"It's clear that these Republican legislatures led by Republican governors just don't think that they can win an election on the merits," she continued. "And so… they need an insurance policy, because in the event that voters actually decide that — no, Republicans aren't interested in creating jobs, no, they're not interested in getting the economy turned around, and gee, maybe I'd like to actually go to the polls and vote for the candidate of my choice — they are using the insurance policy of voter suppression laws to make sure that people who are likely to go to the polls and vote for someone other than them can't do it. That's un-American. That's unacceptable."

She was countered by Rep. Steve King of Iowa with some unfounded bullshit.  I mean, seriously debunked bullshit.  Which remains bullshit no matter how often it gets said.

Congressional Dems--more of this, please. Step one--call it like you see it. Step two--you don't need a step two: just call it like you see it.
