Chuckie Back and he is nothing but one of the worst one sided partisan persons in Congress today. Hey Chuckie. We are armed with the internet and a bunch of new tools that you can not hide your 1960's ways of one lines "EXTREME" comments anymore. Hey Cuckie how long had you been in Washington? Can we blame you for some of this 14.4 Trillion dollars of debt. You Bet Cha.
Chuck Schumer in addition to being corrupt is nothing more than a simple minded idiot!
Regardless of all the derogatory names one could think apply to apply to Shummer, it is futitle to disparage him without attributing to sorrid conduct of violating the interest of America by his attempt to enhance his and his party's interest to the people that he represents. You will never get rid of miscreatants untill you get rid of those who support him.
Schumer is an empty suit. He really shoud be locked up in a ZOO !!
