The NYT and Schumer are soulmates: arrogant, obnoxious, left-wing. While NYT does indeed seem to be making this story into a swipe at Mr. Mills (to the meager extent possible), look on the bright side: The mighty Times had to write a story it would have preferred to ignore. Schumer looks like a putz, and the Times looks like a putz for sneering at his opponent in this context.

Can anyone say that if chuckie was a GOPer and Mills was a rat, this story would be presented the way it was?
Mills's manager did a great job. Of course the ratmedia will try to smother it. Now let's see who else picks it up.

"Senator Schumer has effectively admitted to violating the law,"

what wonderful words to read!

I would love to see

Mr Schumer and partner in crime Ms klinkton were escorted to jail in the scandal.......

some people forget that congressmen and women got the boot because they did things, with a bank in the congress, that ordinary people could not do. it took some constant pressure to make the story BIG. What an underdog needs to do is take a Senator to task for not being ordinary. People hate royalty in the guise of a politician.</p>

And the left had the nerve to question John Ashcroft using a chartered plane a couple of times. The Demo's creed: "Don't do as I do, do as I say."
