	NRA-ILA :: Articles
		Schumer`s office released what the media called a "Congressional study" which he claimed showed a flow of guns from states with "weak" laws to states with "strong laws." The assertion that some states have weak gun laws and others have strong laws is patently false.
		Schumer`s "gunrunner" drives to New York City and transfers the guns to his drug dealer "customers," knowing that they will be used in crimes of violence involving the drug trade.
		Chuck Schumer knows the truth, but he also knows that if current Federal laws were enforced, and if the public knew that there were such laws, the call for gun control would be pointless.

	SCHUMER TAKES ON POWERFUL ETHANOL LOBBY TO KEEP NY GAS PRICES IN CHECK
		Schumer said the mandate would undermine the bill's anti-pollution goals by requiring refiners to use ethanol which has a chemical makeup similar to MTBE and by limiting legal actions against the ethanol producers and distributors if that product is found to be defective.
		Schumer said the ethanol mandate will also reduce highway and mass transit funding since refiners would be using a larger amount of ethanol in formulating their gasoline which means that gas tax revenues would decrease because ethanol gets a 53 cent/gallon gas tax break or subsidy.
		Schumer said it would be irresponsible to give the producers and distributors of ethanol a free ride before fully knowing how the additive would affect the environment.

	Byron York on Judicial Nominations on National Review Online
		Before the hearing, held Thursday in the Judiciary Committee's subcommittee on the courts, the best Republican guess was that Schumer wanted to divert attention from GOP events marking the one-year anniversary of President Bush's first judicial nominations.
		Schumer's allegations aside, it is unlikely that any of the nominations died because of a high-level conspiracy — real-world politics would be a much better explanation.
		What disturbs Republicans are the nominees — for example, the president's choices for the appeals court in the District of Columbia, which has no home-state senators and therefore no potential blue-slip problems — who are being held up for reasons that are not fully clear.

	"Senator Chuck Schumer Is Why Americans Don’t Trust Politicians" by Warner Todd Huston (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Schumer said, “ A year ago if we would have heard that the Republican majority was considering having the Vice President sit in the Chair and rule by fiat, his own interpretation of the Constitution, coming out of nowhere and he says that we’ll rule by fiat from the Chair?’”
		Schumer then claimed that the Republicans are saying “there should be no more filibusters of judges, even though that’s been allowed for 200 years.” But, this is not a true statement either.
		Schumer attempted to paint Hatch as either too weak minded to resist this mythical “hard, hard, hard right” or as one of them and, therefore, out to do just what Schumer is doing; lie to gain power.

	D'Amatoing D'Amato - Chuck Schumer has to be Sen. Pothole if he is to beat Sen. Pothole. By David Plotz (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Schumer abandoned his opposition to the death penalty, voted for the Defense of Marriage Act, and signed on to every crime bill he could find.
		Schumer, I learned from his past few days of campaign appearances, is responsible for the national drop in crime, the protection of Social Security and Medicare, and the budget deal.
		Schumer immediately countered by running the D'Amato commercial in New York City, labeling it "the ad Al D'Amato doesn't want you to see." D'Amato's latest strategy--to tar Schumer as a lazy, "part-time" congressman who skips votes--seems to be backfiring as well.

		Schumer goes on with, "When my friend from Utah lists the 10 most ridiculous arguments against keeping the filibuster and he says 'checks and balances is a ridiculous argument?' Please...

		In the end, after seeing how far off Schumer is on historical fact, how he warps the truth to fit his ends and how he maligns any and all opponents he reveals himself the poster boy for the power hungry, say anything, demagogues of which Americans are sick to death.

		But, just because Schumer's not alone in making this argument has nothing to do with the fact that the argument itself is absurd.
		Schumer says that the president will have to "face down the hard right" in order to provide for domestic security.
		Indeed, if Chuck Schumer were less interested in, say, providing pork to the teachers' unions and more interested in "providing for the common defense," he wouldn't see the need to repackage the Constitution as a "new" New Deal.

		Alarmed by the frightening and deadly rise of violence at reproductive health clinics across the nation, Schumer became determined to pass legislation that would afford doctors and their patients the freedom to access basic health care without running a gauntlet of anti-choice harassment.
		Chuck Schumer understood perfectly well that doctors should not have to practice medicine wearing bullet proof vests and that patients should not have to risk their lives in order to see their doctors.
		Schumer, on the other hand, knows that access to safe, effective family planning is the best way to reduce the number of abortions.

		Schumer wants to redefine "foreign power" to mean the desired surveillance target alone, warning that someone could plot terrorism with no connection to anyone else.
		Schumer conceded that there could be U.S. citizens who are single-handedly plotting terrorism and whom investigators might not nab without a FISA-like surveillance tool.
		The three senators cautioned in the report, "From a civil liberties perspective, the high-profile investigations and cases in which the FISA process appears to have broken down is too easily blamed on the state of the law rather than on inadequacies in the training of those responsible for implementing the law.
