DNC Chief Wasserman Schultz: “If It Was Up To The GOP We’d All Be Driving Foreign Cars” . . . Take a Wild Guess What Kind Of Car She Drives?

Drum roll please . . . A Japanese-owned Nissan Infinity.

Do you have to be a fool to head the DNC?

(The Hill) – The chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) appears to drive a foreign car, despite criticizing Republican presidential candidates for supposedly favoring foreign auto manufacturers.

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.), the chairwoman of the DNC, ripped into Republican presidential contenders who opposed President Obama’s 2009 bailouts for General Motors and Chrysler.

“If it were up to the candidates for president on the Republican side, we would be driving foreign cars; they would have let the auto industry in America go down the tubes,” she said at a breakfast for reporters organized by The Christian Science Monitor.

But according to Florida motor vehicle records, the Wasserman Schultz household owns a 2010 Infiniti FX35, a Japanese car whose parent company is Nissan, another Japanese company. The car appears to be hers, since its license plate includes her initials.

The Infiniti FX35, sticker price roughly $38,000.

Update: MPG for the FX35 is a paltry 16 city/23 hwy. Not exactly “green” friendly.
