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.)

If anyone wants to read about what our guys can do, please pick up a copy of Marcus Lutrell's, Lone Survivor; one of the best books I have read in a long while.

I'm so proud of our men and women in the military; Chuckles Schumer couldn't lick the...never mind.

If that sentence wasn’t so long, it would be the perfect bumper sticker.

Why Alfonze DaMato ever apologized is beyond me.

Schumer, you are, without a doubt, a putz!

And yes, I know that means a d!ck. You are one.

Schumer = Slimeball

Just looking at the guy gives me the creeps. You know the guy will say *anything* if he thinks it will give him some temporary advantage.

Shmuckie Schumer is a pure defeatist and is about as useful as tits on a baseball.

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

Ding, ding, ding, ding!!!! OK folks, it is all over for this month, we have our winner for September's most cogent and biting political observation. Heck, its in the running for the 2007 award.

Haha. Timing is everything, chuckles, and you blew it.

National polls just released indicate that 67% of America say it IS the surge and it IS working.

Your little boy playground scare tactics fall on deaf ears.

American Warriors=10

“chuckles the shoebox” Schumer=0

He’s also an embarrassment to all sane people, to all patriots, and to the human race.

Apparently when he was circumcised, they cut the wrong head. That’s why he is crazy.

Is this man just plain crazy?

democrats can NEVER admit they were wrong. And they're always %100 sure of their predictions. All part of the liberal snow job.

They make me sick.
