Schumer was always a bit of a wanker (none / 0) (#2)

I.e. a blowhard who says both more (in words) and less (in content) than he should, like fellow Dem bloviator Biden (imagine getting stuck in an elevator with both!). Sure, Mukasey should be given a tough and thorough hearing, but Schumer shouldn't have phrased this in a way that makes him look oafish.

Dems are still playing catch-up trying to sound as good as Repubs in the talking points department. They still often sound like members of the chess club trying to sound cool and tough and with it. Someone needs to hook them up with Denis Leary.

Anyway, he sounds about as good as we're likely to get out of this administration and environment. Perhaps Dems could strike a deal--and perhaps this is what Schumer was alluding to--whereby he gets confirmed if a special counsel is named to look into USAgate and Seigelman.

But better an honest and honorable right-wing ideologue than a dishonest and corrupt partisan hack sleazeball like Olson. The man is slime.

I can't believe I just wrote that. This is how desperate we've become...
