This morning on CNN, Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz was asked, “Why is it not hypocrisy for the president to take campaign donations from private equity when he’s attacking private equity making that an essential part of his campaign?”

The chairwoman responded, “It’s not comparing apples and oranges, it’s comparing apples and coconuts.”
