Chuck “I think we can nail him” Schumer is back at it. He will not be one-upped by Pelosi’s “But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what\u2019s in it….\u201d.<\/p>\n
Back in 2013, recall, a GOP effort to defund ObamaCare in a federal spending bill led to a 16-day shutdown of the federal government. Democrats were irate (as they always are when Republicans advance their policies), and none more so than Schumer, who explained how his party was above the fray.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know,\u201d he said on ABC\u2019s \u201cThis Week,\u201d \u201cwe could do the same thing on immigration reform. We believe strongly in immigration reform. We could say, \u2018We\u2019re shutting down the government, we\u2019re not gonna raise the debt ceiling, until you pass immigration reform.\u2019?\u201d<\/p>\n
But, he added ominously, \u201cit would be government chaos.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
So, the Republicans were harum-scarum\u00a0in 2013, now the Democrats are righteous rebels in 2017.<\/p>\n
New York\u2019s senior senator doesn\u2019t like the fact that Republicans mean to insert provisions for border-wall funding and deportation of illegal immigrants in a must-pass bill to keep the government funded past April 28. So he\u2019s threatening a filibuster to block passage \u2014 which would result in furloughing government employees, just like last time.<\/p>\n
Back then, Democrats called it \u201chostage-taking.\u201d Now they\u2019re blaming Republicans for leaving Democrats no option but to take hostages themselves. Or, as Schumer put it: \u201cThey will be shutting down the government and delivering a severe blow to our economy.\u201d Meaning: When they do it, it\u2019s reckless; when we do it, it\u2019s principle.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Go get ’em Chuck, maybe you can convince them with some crocodile tears, your hypocrisy has no limits.<\/p>\n
