Settin' Chucky Schumer straight

Some numbnut somewhere dubbed Senator Chuck Schumer the "Democratic Karl Rove."  When the Wall Street Journal asked Schumer about the comparison, he didn't dispute the notion that he and Karl Rove share certain personality traits. Schumer did add, however, that he's "nicer" than Mr. Rove.  Well, how's this for nice ...
 
During a speech at the National Press Club last week, Schumer said the Republican Party is "controlled by two interest groups that don't represent America." The GOP, says Mr. Nice, is dominated by what he calls "theocrats and economic royalists."

I've been involved in Republican politics for the past fifteen years. I know party leaders, donors, activists and volunteers from Nashville to Washington, DC. I've yet to encounter a single Republican who warrants being called a "theocrat" or an "economic royalist."

That being said, I can set Chucky Schumer right straight about who dominates his chosen political party. Indeed, all a feller has to do is check out the financial disclosure forms of a random Democrat politician to learn who dominates the nation's oldest political party. To wit: public and private sector unions; left-wing moonbats (see MoveOn.org and DailyKos); trial lawyers; race hustlers (see Jackson, Jesse); Hollywood nitwits; abortion absolutists (see NARAL and Emily's List); leftist academics who've not yet received the memo about socialism not working; hypocritical doomsdayers (see Gore, Al); and assorted sundry apologists for the welfare state.
