Near the end of the video, he states (about 1:10)
...you know we have three branches of government, we have the house, the senate, and the president, and all three of us...
Just unbelievable!

Never confuse the facts with a good story.

It sounds like Senator Schumer has spent as much time reading the Constitution (that he took an oath to protect and defend) as he did the Healthcare law. Then again, not much has come out of the any of the NY Congressional delegation recently that makes any sense so his remarks aren't at all surprising.

You have to give the man credit for a consistent level of performance in the service of our country.

Somebody has to occupy the bottom of the barrel.

How many of his constituents know the difference? Therein lies the real problem...with pretty much all of 'em.

Well, the Dems don't really like the Judicial branch all that much these days. Maybe they think if they ignore it long enough it will just go away. "rlol"

Another term and a couple more Liberal appointments and the Judicial branch WILL be irrelevant and will logically disappear.

While it's certainly true that Schumer and the majority of his constituents do, indeed, deserve each other, I have to wonder what horrible acts the rest of us non-constituents have committed to deserve such a fine "reward."
