FOR CHUCKIE SCHUMER, POLITICS IS THE PRIORITY NOT THE COUNTRY…


I’d like to think that there was once a time when Democrat politicians actually loved their country and cared about keeping her and her citizens safe.  But as hard as I might try to find such a time in our history, I’ve yet to come up with anything.  Let’s face it, it is the Democrat Party, the party of slavery, Jim Crow, the Ku Klux Klan and segregation, to name just a few of the high points of the party’s history, that has shown nothing but disdain for America.  And even when faced with the equal rights protests of the early sixties, the vast majority of Democrats still refused to vote in favor of either the Civil Rights Act of 1964 or the Voting Rights Act of 1965.  And then, in adding insult to injury, enter LBJ with his masterplan which was fondly referred to as “The Great Society”.  A plan which even LBJ himself promised would result in getting blacks voting Democrat for the next 200 years.  And here we are more than 50 years later, and up to this point he’s been right about that.

Sadly, very little has been achieved, courtesy of LBJ’s ‘Great Society’, other than to successfully move blacks from one form of slavery into what, I would argue, is a far more cruel and oppressive form of slavery.  And for whatever reason, it was this form of enslavement was something blacks seemed to be only too willing to accept.  Which frankly, seems a bit odd if you ask me.  Of course it didn’t hurt that along the way the Democrat Party enlisted the assistance of many so-called leaders of the black community to assist them in convincing blacks of the ‘benefits’ of such enslavement.  These same black ‘leaders’ have continued to lend a helping hand in exchange for having a seat at the Democrat Party table of power.  And in fast-forwarding 50 or so years, we find this disturbing trend still underway.   And of course there was also our state-controlled media who was only too happy to help, and who assisted by providing all manner of propaganda to those too ignorant to realize they’re being lied to. 

And now in what was, at least from my point of view, an example that makes painfully clear just how much further the Democrat Party has managed to become consumed by its continuing, and quite insatiable, hunger for power, at the expense of what’s good for the country, it was as recently as Wednesday of this week, on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show,” that Senate Minority Leader Chuckie Schumer elaborated on his party’s efforts to slow the confirmation of President Donald Trump’s cabinet appointees, including Jeff Sessions, who was confirmed earlier in the day by the U.S. Senate.  Host Rachel Maddow told Chuckie she had been told by former Barry White House officials that their biggest concern about the upcoming Trump presidency was Sessions heading the Department of Justice.  Chuckie once again that he is little more than a political hack when he made the comment that Sessions was “anti-immigrant” and had a bad record on civil and voting rights.  Really, since when?

Chuckie said, “When Jeff Sessions was passed, it turned my stomach.”  He went on to say, “I don’t have anything against him personally. It’s known we here in that gym together in the morning but to have a man like this with his record on immigration, he’s almost certainly the most anti-immigrant senator of the hundred, on civil rights and voting rights he’s probably one of the top three or four against these sacred rights, civil rights, and voting rights, he doesn’t belong there and I think a lot of Republicans know it.”  Chuckie continued saying, “What’s happened on the Republican side, even hope the many of them have doubts about these nominees, they’re afraid to break with Donald Trump.”  And then he said, “They’re marching in lockstep on these nominees and so many other things. Can you imagine if a Democrat had said the United States has moral equivalency to Russia and Putin? The Republicans would be howling at the moon.”

Chuckie continued on with his whining saying, “But here they just go along and say nothing. It’s a real display of lack of courage, of lack of strength, of lack of conviction for them to go along with these nominees and so do many things that I know in their hearts and minds is wrong.”  I find it rather remarkable, and somewhat hypocritical, that I’m hearing what is nothing more than political fiction coming from the very same guy who saw nothing wrong with marching in lockstep, and very enthusiastically so, with Barry “Almighty” no matter how detrimental the policy, or nominee, being put forward was to our healthcare system, our economy, our ‘war on terror, aka our ‘overseas contingency operation, our foreign policy, our military or anything else.  If it was in any way harmful to America or to the American people, if it was something advocated by Barry, that Chuckie was all for it.  So his current critique of the Republicans rings more than just a bit hollow! 

You know, when you get right down to it, Chuckie is such a disgusting and dishonest little man.  But then that shouldn’t really come as a surprise since Democrats in general tend to be more than a little disgusting and dishonest.  Every now again I almost find myself longing for the days when we could all sit down and have an actual debate/discussion on the important issues of the day, back when Republicans and Democrats could all agree to disagree and still go out for a beer afterwards.  But, as they say, time marches on and along the way the left has seemed to lose its way, to the point where they are now our own homegrown version of terrorists.  And as far as Chuckie getting sick to his stomach over Sessions being confirmed, it was every time Barry opened his mouth for eight years that turned my stomach.  But did it turn Chuckie's stomach when Barry gave amnesty to convicted felons or transferred terrorists back to battlefield.  Nope, Chuckie felt just fine.

And what may demonstrate just how far gone the Democrat Party may truly be is the fact that rumor now has it that the Democrats are grooming ‘Pocahontas’ Warren for a presidential run in 2020.  How nutty is that?  Everyone I know mutes or changes the channel whenever she comes on.  She is shrill, nasty, and rather repulsive.  Talk about the Democrats doubling down on stupid, they also have Keith Ellison, a Muslim Brotherhood sympathizer, who has the inside track for becoming the DNC Chair.  And while I would love nothing more than to say that the Democrats are in the process of self-destructing, commonsense tells me that it’s far too soon to be celebrating the demise of the Democrat Party.  That and the fact that we’re already witnessing our Republican ‘leaders’ in Congress stepping all over themselves to see who it is that will be the first one to once again cave on the many campaign promises that were made throughout our most recent campaign season.  They need to get busy!
