SHAME ON SCHUMER
Senator Chuck Schumer, who backed George Bush's Iraq war, who supported Bibi Netanyahu in his campaign against the President's foreign policy initiatives, and stabbed the President in the back regarding the Affordable Care Act, just embarrassed himself again, and his co-religionists, when he made it known yesterday that he would oppose the Iran Nuclear Deal and vote to override the President's veto. Schumer revealed his mis guided intentions (during the hoopla of the first Republican 2016 Debate) very early in the sixty-day review process. His timing was sinister as well. It gives his "nay" position a six-week-long powerful impact on other "fence-sitting" Senators, and seems designed to do the most damage to the President's campaign to avoid war in the ME. Schumer's (mis-perceived and wrong-headed) vote puts the interests of foreign citizens and the supposed welfare of a foreign power before the best interests of his USA constituency, his own Party, his President, his Government and his Nation. This Senator has helped revive that whispered slur of the distant past that some our citizens have "divided loyalties" which makes them "unreliable Americans". Schumer who cravenly failed to withstand the pressure of a small but vocal part of his NY constituency has placed the perceived welfare of Israel ahead of the USA on this critical, watershed agreement, which, if not implemented could lead us again into a bloody, devastating conflict in the Middle East.
Chuck Schumer should perhaps move east to a small nation on the Mediterranean...there as a member of the Knesset he will avoid the conflicts of interest he seems to be plagued with here in the USA as an American Senator.
As I have noted elsewhere in this blog, Senator Schumer's behavior in the past, on foreign policy, has been suspect, and in this critical issue makes Schumer an unworthy candidate for Senate Democrat leader of the U.S. Senate.
