Chuck Schumer: 'Tea Party Does Not Favor Cutting Taxes'
Pundit Press ^ | 12/13/10 | Aurelius

Posted on 12/13/2010 1:42:53 PM PST by rightistight

Something tells me that most of the Democrats did not get the message of last month's election. Apparently they prefer to shove their head in the sand (and most likely somewhere else), and pretend that it never happened.

And then there is New York Senator Chuck Schumer. Not only does Senator Schumer deny that the election had any real significance, but that it might have had the opposite affect that people believe it did. In a recent interview, Schumer stated:

“Our colleagues on the other side of the aisle said, ‘Did you hear the mandate of the election?’ Well, I ran this year, I got 66 percent of the vote in my state. And I saw lots of people and lots of angry people. . . . But not a single one of them, from the tea party or anywhere else, said give tax breaks to the millionaires.”

That's weird because I don't know if I've ever heard of a Tea Partier who was against tax cuts. But hey, what are facts to Chuck Schumer, right?

Schumer and Wiener are two peas in a pod. I wonder if Schumer likes Wiener?

I don't know of any Tea Partier who would talk to Chuck Schumer in the first place.

And I don't know how they could because he hid like a scared little girlie man all summer long.

Chuckie's been pissed since they passed him over for the role of Oswald Cobblepot in Burton's "Batman Returns" movie.

Does Schumer realize that the whole premise behind the TEA party is in the name?

Enough
Already
