In a year full of political dirt hurled by both the Democrats and their mainstream media allies, one of the worst smears of all came near the end. This was the smear by Congressman Gary Ackerman of New York against the brother of Rembrandt by casting aspersions upon his artistic ability. Ackerman made the lack of talent charge against Murray Rembrandt last Sunday to Bob Schieffer on Face the Nation as relayed by Rush Limbaugh on his The Schlossberg Chronicles page (emphasis mine):

I thought for a moment the schmuck said Rembrandt (the artist) didn't have any talent!

It is odd that Ackerman is so anti Kennedy I think he’s speaking for Schumer. Otherwise, there’s nothing in it for him.

No, it's his brother Murray Rembrandt who has insufficient talent to paint a house.

Ackerman made a joke! Inconceivable!

He can't even pull off a joke successfully. He used the word 'wouldn't' instead of 'couldn't'.

Rep. Gary Ackerman (D-NY) on Caroline Kennedy: "Rembrandt was a great artist. His brother Murray, on the other hand, Murray Rembrandt wouldn't paint a house."
