Chuck Schumer Addresses Troops in Anbar: You Failed
Leibowitz's Canticle ^ | September 5, 2007 | Leibowitz

Posted on 09/05/2007 3:37:36 PM PDT by Bob Leibowitz

Chuck Schumer, senior Senator from New York and self-described member of the Democratic leadership team in the Senate, really knows how to make friends and influence people.

This morning, in a speech on the Senate floor, he explicitly told the U. S. Marines in Anbar province that they've failed and are a part of the problem, not part of the solution.

Let me be clear. The violence in Anbar has gone down despite the surge, not because of the surge. The inability of American soldiers to protect these tribes from al-Qaeda said to these tribes, "We have to fight al-Qaeda ourselves."

It wasn't that the surge brought peace here, it was that the warlords took peace here, created a temporary peace here and that was because there was no one else there protecting. (Emphasis in original.)

upChuck Schumer is without a doubt, one of the most vile and offensive slugs to ever slime it’s way across the floor of the United States Senate.

And being a slug, hopefully somebody will dump a box of salt on the miserable S.O.B.

Well that’ll play well to the public. Not going to convince middle-America to vote (D) with this junk.

Chuck, not only my senior senator but my former congressman, is an embarrassment to all Jews and all New Yorkers.

Any time I hear chuckies name, I’m reminded of the horror movie chuckie—you know, that puppet that loved death and destruction.

I wonder if anyone will bring this up in the debate tonight; I certainly hope so. At least then the statement will get some coverage. As we all know the liberal poodles in mainstream media will protect chuckie from any fall out. Lets hope that the candidate’s teams are up to speed on this and chastice schumer loudly tonight. In fact, at least one of them, perhaps Rudy or McCain should call on Schumer to immediately apologize to our military, or he should resign his seat effectively immediately. This is almost as bad as turbin durbin calling our troops nazi’s on the floor. I know Rudy plans to go after the democrats in the debate tonight, will the others?

Political Correctness is a concept promoted by people so delusional that they believe you can pick up a turd by the clean end.

Has General Schumer been to Iraq in the last month or two? He would rather see Iraqi’s killing each other so we have money for his liberal pet projects.
