DNC Rep. Resigns After Anti-Israel Tirade
2012-07-04
[Free Beacon] A South Florida Democratic National Committee representative who engaged in an anti-Israel tirade over email had resigned from the post following outrage over her remarks.

Evelyn Garcia, a Palm Beach County representative to the DNC and ally of its chair, Florida Rep. Debbie Downer Wasserman-Schultz,
...Congresswoman from Florida, the abrasive chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee. She has been a politician since 1992, and prior to that was in training as a political science major. Her primary accomplishment seems to be that she's Jewish...
 was caught by the news website BizPacReview advocating for an end to the U.S.-Israel alliance and accusing Israel of war crimes.

Garcia, who additionally serves as a Democratic Executive Committee member and is running to become a member of the Florida State House, quit her post at the DNC following the fallout from her tirade, BizPacReview reported:
Though she gave up her DNC position, Garcia told the newspaper she still plans to continue her campaign for the House District 88 seat.

She may have an uphill climb in winning back leaders of her own party.

As soon as BizPac Review President Jack Furnari's post on the inflammatory emails went live on Sunday, a number of Democratic leaders across Palm Beach County expressed horror at comments many considered anti-Semitic.

#3  While I do have some liberal friends, they all know that this is one thing I will not tolerate. Actually, I point out them repeatedly that they are far more intolerant than I, with great glee and gloat over their whinging about it.

There's one human race, if you claim to be otherwise, you should be seized and dissected to figure out what sort of non-human species you are. Anything else is just racist.

#1  This is a constant struggle for the Democratic Pary leadership.

Large blocs of Dem officials are anti American, anti Semitic, anti Christian, anti marriage, and anti business. However, at the Dem convention and similar events that many people actually watch on TV, these constituencies need to be suppressed otherwise the country will figure out who the Dems are.
