The real “War on Women”: when major liberal Democrat donors discriminate against pregnant women. That’s what happened when Florine Mark, Hannan Lis, and Lisa Lis, who gave tens of thousands of dollars to the Obama campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and Democrat candidates nationwide, discriminated against a pregnant woman and recently settled with her for tens of thousands of dollars. And you won’t read about it anywhere but here on DebbieSchlussel.com.

Mark, and her daughter and son-in-law, the Lises, own The WW Group, one of the largest franchisees of Weight Watchers franchises in the world. They are multi-millionaires and far leftists who are also JINOs (Jews In Name Only) and support various liberal, anti-Israel, and anti-Semitic causes. As I told you several years ago, the Lises held a legal defense fundraiser at their mansion for an indicted HAMASnik Jew-hater, just a few days after PFLP (Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine) terrorist Imad Hamad and Hezbollah agent Osama Siblani held a fundraiser for the man. Hannan Lis also paid to bring Leonard Nimoy (yes, of Star Trek fame) to Detroit to pimp his anti-Semitic nudie book, featuring naked women defiling Jewish religious materials.

And last week, Mark and the Lises’ privately held WW Group settled a federal civil rights lawsuit brought against the company by the Equal Employment Opportunities Commission (EEOC) on behalf of a pregnant woman against whom the company discriminated.

Wendy Lamond-Broughton joined Weight Watchers and lost 30 pounds following the birth of her child. She decided to apply for a job with The WW Group, and was told at her second interview that she would not be hired because she was pregnant again. The WW Group recently settled the suit for only $45,000, which is pizza money for them, a drop in the bucket.

While I understand that Weight Watchers’ pitch is all about losing weight, it’s illegal to discriminate against women based on pregnancy status, pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. And, as we all know, if the Koch Brothers did this, the story would be headlines internationally and part of the BS about the so-called “Republican War on Women.” But with Mrs. Mark and the Lises, the story was barely a blip in local Detroit-area news and their status as major Dem donors wasn’t mentioned anywhere . . . except here.

Hannan and Lisa Lis gave thousands of dollars in campaign contributions to Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, and Charles Schumer, among many others. They also gave at least $30,000 to the DNC Services Corporation a/k/a the Democratic National Committee. Ditto for Florine Mark, a major donor to the Obama campaign, the DNC, and Democrat candidates. Don’t you just love how the politicians whining about the “war on women” are taking oodles of money from those perpetrating that war. Mark and the Lises were also consistent major donors to John Dingell, who they know has one of the most anti-Israel voting records and is an open supporter of Hezbollah, which murdered over 300 U.S. Marines and Embassy officials in cold blood.

Mark and the Lises are good friends and supporters of the Clintons, and I’m sure they’ll donate plenty for Hillary’s 2016 run for Prez. Mark actually took her granddaughter–the Lis’s daughter–to meet Bill Clinton at the height of his impeachment and expressed her support of the President’s right to get oral sex from interns and lie about it under oath.

She won’t hire hard-working pregnant chicks, but has no prob with men who get oral sex from the youthful hired help.

Maybe Florine Mark wanted her granddaughter to be the next Monica Lewinsky.

BTW, after I last wrote about Hannan and Lisa Lis, Mr. Lis contacted me, and I had the e-mail exchange with him, below. (For background info, you should definitely read this article, “Who Are Hannan Lis & Tim Attalla?,” first, so you’ll see these New Year’s greetings and invitation weren’t the kind and generous gestures they may appear to be.)

Hi Debbie,.

My name is Hannan Lis and my family and I would like to wish you a Happy and Healthy New year.

We also would like to invite you to join our family for Shabbat Dinner at our home. We usually celebrate Shabbat at our home withf friends and family and would be honored if you could join us.

May the new year bring you and your family health and happiness.

Warmest Regards,

Hannan:

Thank you for your New Year wishes. Shanah Tovah to you and your family, too. While I appreciate your invitation, I observe Shabbat and do not drive on the Sabbath, so I would be unable to attend without doing so.

Regardless, I would have to decline your very nice invitation, anyway. As we both know, your e-mail invitation to me was not sent in a vacuum. As you know from my recent article about you, we have fundamental differences of opinion that cannot be bridged over challah [DS: challah is the braided bread, over which Jews say a blessing and which they eat before meals on the Jewish Sabbath] and kiddush [DS: kiddush is the ceremony of saying a blessing over and drinking wine before meals on the Jewish Sabbath].

I oppose the enemies of the Jewish people. You fraternize with them, orchestrate awards for them, and raise money for their legal defense funds. I oppose illegal drugs and those who are involved in drug gangs that murder in the name of distributing them. You raise money for those involved with those gangs and their legal defense funds . . . when they are Palestinians. I oppose a moral equivalency summer camp that considers Holocaust denial as a legitimate viewpoint and treats Jewish kids and Palestinians–many of whom end up becoming terrorists–as equals, not as terror victims and their aggressors. You send your kids to that camp and raise money for its continued existence. I oppose Congressman John Dingell, one of the most anti-Israel members of Congress. Your family and PACs in which you are involved promote him and give money to his campaigns.

And I respect the Jewish religion and its traditions and paraphernalia used in performing religious observances. You welcome to town those who do picture books featuring naked women who desecrate them (your friend Leonard Nimoy’s “Shekhina”).

Again, I very much appreciate your classy letter and invitation and I return your wishes that the new year bring you and your family health and happiness.

Thanks for your invitation. And I hope the New Year is a good one for you and your family.

Of course, my kind wishes and niceties at the end were as sincere as a Congressman using the description “my esteemed colleague” on the Floor of the U.S. House. I do not give well-wishes to the enablers of my enemies and those who would destroy me.

Far lefties like this really think I’ll be charmed and awed by their mansions (which they attained by marrying the right spoiled lefty rich girl), and that this will bridge the wide chasm between my mainstream, morality-based views and their whacked out, off-the-deep-end ones.

Not a chance.
