Democrats Blast DINO Chuck Schumer's Threat to Kill Iran Deal

[Triana]

So - this REPUBLICAN is set to take the place of Harry Reid? As ineffective as I have at times thought Reid to be, this DINO jackass needs to just drop the pretense and put the (R) after his name and be done with it.

Democratic constituency groups opposed to war with Iran are furious that New York Democrat and Senate Minority Leader "heir apparent" Chuck Schumer is threatening to scuttle the possibility of a diplomatic agreement with Iran by supporting legislation - the Corker bill - that would allow Republicans in Congress to veto any deal.

MoveOn.org says:

Supporting reckless legislation that undermines President Obama's diplomacy with Iran and risks a dangerous, unnecessary war in the Middle East should disqualify anyone from leading the Senate Democratic caucus...Sen. Schumer needs to withdraw his support from the Corker and Menendez legislation.

CREDO Action says:

Starting a war with Iran is apparently the top legislative priority for the next leader of the Senate Democratic caucus.

Politico reported that Senator Chuck Schumer's first major move after locking down support to succeed Sen. Harry Reid as the Senate minority leader is to put his weight behind a bill that could block a final nuclear deal with Iran and would almost certainly put the U.S. on a path to war with Iran.

THE REST:

1. recently, I saw a Passover post on Schumer's fb page...

Or somewhere. I don't remember seeing him post a religious event before.

That, in itself, isn't really important, though.

I had no idea when I voted for him all those times.....

"Disappointed" is too mild

2. I just went over to his Facebook page...

He’s getting a LOT of shit for this! https://www.facebook.com/chuckschumer?fref=ts

Fuck Chuck the Schmuck.

8. wow, those comments are worth reading

hope he read them. Here are just two of many:

While I'm certainly not surprised, I am very disappointed that you've chosen to undermine and disrespect our President, The country is tired of war. We are tired of being told that there is no money for education.. no money for healthcare.. no money for seniors...no money for veterans... no money to repair our crumbling infrastructure and no money to help those in need when somehow there is always money to put America's son's and daughters in harms way. Shame on you.


First let me state that I am a Viet-Nam Army vet who received a purple heart during my tour of duty there. I am also the son of an orthdox Rabbi. I have also voted as a Democrat in NY all my adult life. Most, importantly I consider myself a loyal American. Frankly, I cannot understand where YOUR loyalties lie. I am very disturbed to have just learned that you may not give our president the room he needs to properly negotiate and implement the deal with Iran.

17. Wow both powerful comments.

Sadly I don't think Chuck is listening. He hasn't for a long time.

3. Since Schumer is so widely hated we should put him in a position of greater power and influence.

4. Maybe this is good

We just might not want him in Reids place after all. We just found out what a Dino he is.

5. I have known for a long while he is a shill for Wall Street criminals.

7. Not only that but I have called him Israel's best Senator since Lieberman retired.

President Obama should give Chuckie a call and ask him to choose between opposing the Iran deal and funding Israel, because only one of the two can happen.

On edit: By the way Chuckie is one of my Senators, not that I'm bragging, because I'm not. I could not even hold my nose to vote for him the last time.

6. We shouldn't. There are many better others whom I think could do a better service

to our party. One who leaps to mind is Sherrod Brown. There are others too. Be that as it may, the best we have is to ostracize him and shame him.
