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.)

It should be clear to all that read his address that Senator Charles Schumer of New York is afraid of Victory by the Armed Forces of the United States, that Senator Charles Schumer is fearful of lossing power due to success in the field and that Senator Charles Schumer goes to sleep each night in fear of what might be achieved in spite of his actions each day in Congress.

Schumer is one of the worst Senators and his words are full of venom and destructive actions. I can’t stand it that he is on the judicial committee, for nothing good comes out of that snakes mouth...I can’t wait to see his face when God hands down his judgement someday...there are quite a few politicians I want a front row seat for on judgement day!

It's slightly off topic, but the title is fun:

"The Charles E. Schumer Memorial Rifle Range"

The Surge is Working and the Rats are in the Trap.

Of course all they have left is to lie, its what they do best. Why anyone in the military would vote Rat is a mystery.

Chuck started his first political campaign the day after graduation from law school. He’s never worked in the private sector.

>>>Well that’ll play well to the public.<<<

The public will never hear it! The MSM, thoroughly in the Democrat camp, will practice self-censorship; all in the interest of "the cause" you understand!!

“Is this man just plain crazy?”

No, Chuck Schumer is not just plain crazy. He’s a special kind of crazy that you only see about once every two hundred years or so, and even then the subjects are usually so incapacitated that they live in gutters.

The man has no shame.

There must be some deep psychological disorder he suffers from to be such a complete asshat.

Upchuck is maybe a few rungs higher that Hitliary (Ain’t saying much). I was watching the memorial service at Yankee Stadium after 911. Chuck had some appearence of civility (maybe it hit a little too close for home, alas the lesson did not take hold). The Bitch, I meant Luciferess Incarnate however had the look of “I’m bored but I have to be here to make political points. When is this &*^(*^(*^*( dog and pony show going to be over”.
New York, just how could you?!?!
