Who is, by the way, up for re-election next year:
If there is a time where the American people “really don’t care” about pork and corruption, it’s when times are good.
Times are not good.

Senator "camera"
texas214 (Diary) Tuesday, February 10th at 12:40PM EST (link)We should figure out how to pay a camera person to walk around all day and convince Schumer it for for his biography. He is always running to be in front of the camera; the hilarity that will follow will be priceless.
So, even if it's true that people don't care,
Flagstaff (Diary) Tuesday, February 10th at 1:31PM EST (link)does that make it right?
Another case of ObamaEthics.
“The press is so powerful in its image-making role that it can make a criminal look like he’s the victim and make the victim look like he’s the criminal. If you aren’t careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”– Malcolm X, Audubon Ballroom, December 13, 1964
Moe, Schumer has never had a job.
Old_Crow (Diary) Tuesday, February 10th at 1:33PM EST (link)Went into politics directly from college (Harvard law).
Never had to make payroll.
Never had a boss.
Never has been accountable for a budget, performance, profit.
A true Imperial Senator.

Schumer sez:

Is that going to be on our money next year?

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse. A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
