NYC protests Schumers Pro Mukasey vote.

A Hat-tip to a dear blogger bud, Libhomo. I learned this evening that the anti-torture folks in NYC protested at Chuckie Schumer’s place today in an impromptu coalition of patriotic protesters. From his writeup:

Although I arrived late, I didn’t miss out on the most interesting part of the protest. People who had started across the street from Schumer’s coop building moved to the same side of the street as Schumer’s quasi-residence in Park Slope. The 30+ people who arrived for a last minute and barely publicized protest expressed sentiments that go way beyond them and beyond Brooklyn.

Brooklyn for Peace, the Green Party of Brooklyn, and Central Brooklyn Independent Democrats (CBID) deserve credit for organizing the moment of sanity in an increasingly insane country.

The support of the latter organization is encouraging. Often, Democratic clubs are so blindly partisan that their members forget why they are Democrats. That certainly was not the case tonight with CBID.

As Libhomo notes, an important part of the coalition is the CBID group. The word is getting out that the Democrats are not representing their constituents. I am very glad that the general population is realizing this. We need to vote these sumbitches like Schumer and DiFi out. These DINO’s need a wake-up call.

As of this writing, I can not find any online articles about the protest. If I find some in the morning, I will update this post. Thank you to ALL the folks in NYC and Brooklyn that showed Schumer what they think of him.
