debbie wasserman-schultz did nothing to deserve the sexist tirade. the republican agenda is one of the most sexist that we have seen in politics. they have shown themselves willing in word and in politics and in policy to discriminate against women, everything from cutting family planning, to privatizing medicare. the thing that made me saddest about this was that it came during the normal course of business. just as you said, debbie wasserman-schultz was on the floor of the senate, talking about the impact of legislation on her own constituents. emily's list has come out and made a statement and taken action. where are the rest of the women's groups on this? >> i think there's a lot of outrage among women and men in america, who are sick of this kind of thing. i think the outrage and the enthusiasm that it has engendered is coming from two places. one is is the gop war on women, which i think nobody expected the ferocitity of. and the second is inspiring women coming to the forefront of the republican party like debbie wasserman-schultz. if you want

i amean i -- i mean, allen west i think took it there calling into question debbie wasserman schultz' ladyship but it bears basically nothing on the argument. from what i understand, wasserman schultz remarks were partisan ted for tat over or the republican position on entitle reform, and the way he volleyed back, accusing her of being a vile member of congress, it seemed really unnecessary, and if we're talking about the general tenor in congress, the last thing we need is people ratcheting up the rhetoric. >> an excerpt of congressman allen west's e-mail to debbie wasserman schultz which set off the war of words. between these two members of congress. the most vile, unprofessional and despicable member of the u.s. house of representatives. if you have something to say to me, stop being a coward and say it to my face, and otherwise, shut the heck up. my view, in the draft, not that word placed there. doesn't it speak to the whole instability that's become so part and parcel of what goes on in partisan politics? >> the other party, too. the rsnds and the tea party and allen west is a

he would have said it if it wasbe debbie wasserman schultz or barry wasserman schultz. >> do you thinks the d.n.c. strategy to go after decorated military veteran? what is the mission between the democrat full throttle attack? >> greg: the story here isn't the e-mail. this is the new kind of politician that isn't a politician in 2010, you have a tea party and people represent. these are not the normal run of the mill politicians. they don't play the dirty politics. he gets angry and shoots from the hip. look at him and go that is the kind of guy i want as a neighbor. you know his lawn is perfect, the trash is in the right place. just like his hair. perfect. unlike schultz. >> bob: you want everybody at attica. you just jumped in. it'd like to chairfy this. when you said the thing about what is his name, we talked about it yesterday. i made it clear yesterday i thought what he said was disgusting. bill maher. he ought to go to insane asylum. >> you were more outrageed. >> greg: no, he was more outrageed about maher than i was if i remember. >> this is debbie wasserman schultz and all th

last story tonight so this is just turned into a whole rotten mass between allen west and debbie wasserman schultz and basically she called him out for supporting this horrible debt ceiling bill and they passed and he e-mailed her and said you were the most vile unprofessional and despicable member of the u.s. house of representatives you've been proved repeatedly and you are not a lady and therefore should not be afforded due respect from me but the funny thing about this to me is the way that washington works is that immediately the d.c.c. and emily's list of already sent out things asking for money and try. fundraise off of someone else's bad words do not forget that this man called one of ours not a lady i mean i think everybody about money policy is tough and you know right it's difficult to go out to people and say look republicans say this about medicare but this is why we think that ours is the more fiscally sound plan it's much easier to say look some republican said very mean things about a florida congresswoman this is what we're going to say about republicans it's i mean he gave them a

it began when debbie wasserman schultz made a statement on the floor criticizing allen west yet. west responded with a scathing e-mail to wasserman schultz which read -- i don't believe these words -- you are the most vile, unprofessional and despicable member of the house of representatives. wow, opting to take the high road, she spoke with andrea mitchell and said, i love this, the pressure felt by allen west and her other colleagues. well done. >>> this one is personal. yesterday i interviewed joe walsh from illinois. suffice it to say that representative walsh tried to use my name, which is fine with me, more than a few times as he attempted to defend the, cap and balance bill, as well as his own rationale for signing nor quists's petition. and his claim, that the president is a liar. let's take a look back. >>> hey, chris, let me ask you a question, do you support that, chris? >> the president's plan. >> what is the president's plan? we have to stop that, chris. come on, chris. hey, cresse. hey, chris. chris, chris, chris. i love it, chris. >> well, that wasn't half of it. ho

. >>> now, democratic debbie wasserman schultz. i think you just heard the conversation i had. one of the problems, no matter what side of the argument, is that the republican party is split between the likes of mr. chaffetz who are completely irresolute to raising the debt ceiling and the others in speaker boehner's corner who can't get their bill through the senate. where are we with this? >> well there, is clearly, piers, an internal battle going on within the republican party right now. have you a group of what i would said are extremist tea party republicans who basically have a strangle hold the republican party. the tail seems to be wagging the dog. mr. chaffetz, a nice person who i had lovely conversations with on the house floor, really is clearly one of the obstructists. he said they've bent over backward? the problem here is he actually believes that his version of compromise is just the vote to raise the debt ceiling. that's -- at a minimum what we should be doing. that's not a component of compromise. a component of compromise that the american people clearly want

particularly when it comes to the tone, the tenor and the lack of quality of arguments of debbie wasserman schultz herself. she is nothing more than allen grace sen in heels. when it comes to the tone of her rhetoric she is nothing more than anthony weiner only an ok tive higher. this is a whom who was recently accusing the republican party sending america back to the jim crow era. you didn't see all of the civility police demanding she ratchet down her rhetoric and make america's children proud. it was mere months ago president obama was wagging his finger at all of us and asking us to make sure that we were making future generations proud with the quality and tone of our debate. so look everybody is raising money off of this now. honestly, sean, i don't care who apologized to who and what and how this all came out. because ultimately what this is just another convenient distraction from the lack of any democratic plan on how to solve these intractable entitlement problems. >> i think it goes a little bit -- my flag just got messed up. i think it goes deeper than that in this sense. the president
