‘CHUCKIE’ SCHUMER ISSUES ANOTHER WARNING TO REPUBLICANS…


It would appear that that perennial Democrat douche-bag, Chuckie Schumer, is at it yet again. He has recently been doing his best to ‘convince’ Republicans that it would actually be in their best interest to move forward with efforts to bring about amnesty for the supposed 11 million immigrants who are now said to be in this country illegally. Actually, what Chuckie did, was to warn Republicans that should they persist with their stubborn refusal to pass a comprehensive immigration reform bill this year, they'll never have a chance of ever taking power from the Democrats.

Chuckie's warning came at the same time he also chose to slam Rep. Steve King, a Republican, for what he referred to as the "spewing hatred" against illegal immigrants and he accused King of leading his fellow Republicans "over the cliff" on the issue. It was from the Senate floor on Thursday that old Chuckie was heard to say that the GOP has handed the "gavel of leadership on immigration" to King, and that if Republicans continues to follow the right-wing hard line, then Democrats will stay in power for at least another 10 years. Frankly, I think old Chuckie is talking out his ass.

And making accusations of his being a right wing extremist, Chuckie said, "Steve King — a far-right, way out of the mainstream outlier — doesn't just spew hatred, he calls the shots." Then Chuckie went on to spew that which has become his standard brand of drivel on the subject, saying, "They're following Steve King over the cliff." He went on to say, "Where are the people in the Republican Party with the courage to stand up to Steve King? If Republicans continue to kowtow to the hard right on immigration reform, they'll consign themselves to being the minority party for a decade."

And he then went on to make a prediction of sorts. He said, "Immigration reform will pass this year with bipartisan support and a bipartisan imprint or it will pass in future years with only Democratic support and Democratic imprint because Democrats will control Congress and the White House." The Senate's third-ranking Democrat noted that it's been 300 days since the Senate passed a comprehensive reform package last year, which he helped to write as a member of the so-called "Gang of Eight", a little group that, besides himself, consisted of three other Democrats and four RINOs.

Chuckie said, "Every time any Republican raised the possibility of action on immigration reform in the House, Steve King is there, in his own words, 'manning the watchtowers 24/7' to make sure nothing can be passed to fix our broken immigration system. He's an extreme outlier on the issue of immigration reform." Chuckie also railed against King for his contentious comments that there are a horde of undocumented immigrants in the United States who are drug mules with "calves the size of cantaloupes because they're hauling marijuana across the desert." Actually, King was pretty accurate!

The remarks have previously earned King a stern rebuke from such RINOs as John Boehner and Eric Cantor. Chuckie also took King to task for saying that illegal immigrants should be bused back to Tijuana, Mexico. Chuckie said, "My guess is that Republican stomachs churn when they see Steven King spew that kind of rhetoric," the Democrat added. "But rather than stand up to him, they give him the keys to the kingdom of immigration reform." Republicans have said that they are unwilling to pass immigration reform because they cannot trust Barry "Almighty" to enforce the laws.

But Chuckie claims to have answer for that, and has suggested that any new immigration bill should include a proviso that it will not go into effect until 2017 when Barry is out of office. "If Republicans can't agree to pass a bill that goes into effect after the president's term, then we know that 'mistrust of the president' is nothing but a straw man," he said. What may be a "straw man" to old Chuckie, here, most definitely is not one to the rest of us. Barry has demonstrated more times than I care to count, that he’s simply not to be trusted. There should be no proviso that’s part of the debate.

But I must admit that I am puzzled about something though. I mean am I the only one curious about why it is that old Chuckie might be willing to go out of his way to offer up to the Republicans some free advice on how it that they would best be able to wrestle power away from the Democrat Party? Doesn’t that strike anyone as being just a little odd? It’s as if he’s telling the Republicans, "Look, all you guys gotta do to kick our ass in the next election, is to provide amnesty to all those folks who are breaking our laws by being in this country illegally." Is anyone buying this crap?
