On Mother's Day, Chuck Schumer delivered two commencement speeches upstate, flew back to Brooklyn to eat dinner with his wife, mother and daughters and at 7:38 p.m. toted a briefcase into his midtown office for the political ritual known as the Sunday press conference. Picking his way through a line of television cameramen, he joked: "It's like football. No holes. Can't get through," then settled into his habitual spot between a lectern and a ratty blue curtain.
"The Times Square car bomb should be a wake-up call for the administration," Schumer said into a bouquet of microphones, demanding that President Obama increase New York's share of antiterrorism funding. "I'm going to pursue that legislatively."
During his three-decade legislative career, Schumer, 59, has developed a reputation as a razor-elbowed, shamelessly self-serving, media-addicted political monster. He is also arguably the single most effective lawmaker of his generation.
Now, with confidant Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (Nev.) hanging on to his seat by a thread, the Brooklynite is nearing the goal line of his long game. Succeeding Reid would make Schumer the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in American history and, more important for the uber-competitive politician, the first among peers. Schumer has thrust himself into the center of issues ranging from jobs to immigration to Supreme Court hearings, but as that momentum has carried him into a more intimate arena where popularity matters, the grating architect of the current Democratic majority has become noticeably more collegial. Perhaps not coincidentally, his colleagues see him as the front-runner to be their leader.

Dems rearrange deck chairs on their titanic.
“The Times Square car bomb should be a wake-up call for the administration, and I’m going to pursue that by demanding that severe common-sense gun bans be implemented against all Americans.” Please don’t become a poster boy for Jews, Chucky.
God willing, that will be MINORITY Leader.

check my profile for more info. Help spreading the word is appreciated.
Schumer is every bit as evil as Obama.
You have to admit that Chucky has been “effective” ~ he’s triggered a movement to repeal the 17th Amendment (direct election of Senators).
It’s hard to believe that this guy could become more insufferable than he already is, but I have been surprised before.
He spends more time trying to become majority leader than
taking care of his constituents.Also,he observes his sabbath,but doesn’t mind making the goys work on Sundays
covering him!
what the hell have we become when scum like pelosi, reid, schumer and obammy are our “leaders”?
The passage of March's jobs bill revealed how Schumer operates. Reid, who was preoccupied with health care, delegated the jobs legislation out to North Dakota's Byron Dorgan and Durbin. Durbin proposed his $80 billion package. A month later, after Republican Scott Brown (R-Mass.) had replaced Ted Kennedy and stripped the Democrats of their fillibuster-proof majority, Schumer persuaded Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) to sign on to a $13 billion jobs bill.
"He's willing to cross over the aisle," Hatch said. "Many of the others won't."
Orrin, you are a gullible ass.
Will he then ask Barry Soetoro to show ALL his records???

Polarized!
Hey...I've been suffering for 2,000 years (please note sarcasm here) but enduring these people and being judged as a people is more than one can bear.
I'm good with that. IMHO that, along with the Income Tax Amendment, are the two changes which undermined the Federal structure and led to the fascist dictatorship under which we now suffer. You'd think a Jew would have a clearer vision about what happens in unrestrained Fascist disctatorships than does Chucky. I guess he figures it's okay if he's in the fascist driver's seat.
Obersturmbanfuehrer Schumer, that's him.
There’s no real evidence that Schumer is a Jew.
it would be nice to see Chuck-U in a blood struggle to the death with bin-Durbin for the senate minority leader spot ... but i s’pose that’s asking too much
Yes he serves Chuck Schumer before the nation. He may lead the Dems in the Senate, but hopefully not as the majority.
