As I keep saying, the best way to defeat a liberal is to stick a
microphone in front of them every time they open their mouth.

Schumer Pulls 'Tea-Bagger' Card on GOP Candidate Brown

FOXNews.com

New York Sen. Charles Schumer, who famously hammered then-Sen. Alfonse
D'Amato for calling him a "putz-head" in their hot 1998 campaign, was
accused Thursday of stepping into the gutter himself after he sent out a fundraising e-mail in which he called Massachusetts Republican Senate candidate Scott Brown a "far-right tea-bagger."

New York Sen. Charles Schumer, who famously hammered then-Sen. Alfonse
D'Amato for calling him a "putz-head" in their hot 1998 campaign, was
accused Thursday of stepping into the gutter himself after he sent out a fundraising e-mail in which he called Massachusetts Republican Senate candidate Scott Brown a "far-right tea-bagger."

The two-term Democrat, in accusing Brown of being aligned with the conservative "tea party" movement, used a term that every tea party
critic knows refers to a sexual act.

"Chuck has a way of saying things that I don't think he really
understands or means, and it's unfortunate," Brown told Fox News
Thursday when asked about the e-mail. "I'm not into name-calling. ... so
shame on Chuck."

Liberal television hosts had a field day with the "tea bag" term last
year when the tea party movement gained steam. It seemed to lose its
luster after the joke got old, but Schumer brought it back as he urged supporters to vote for Democrat Martha Coakley in next Tuesday's high-
stakes special election.

"Martha Coakley is running to fill the rest of Ted Kennedy's term, and
her opponent is a far-right tea-bagger Republican," Schumer wrote.

Critics pointed out that Schumer cried foul in 1998 after D'Amato called
him a "putz-head" during a meeting with Jewish supporters. The Yiddish
word "putz" literally means "penis," though it has taken on a less
vulgar meaning in common usage. Schumer, a Brooklyn congressman at the
time, seized on D'Amato's insult and blasted the three-term Republican
senator right up until the election for initially denying that he said
it.

Schumer won the election, was re-elected in 2004 and is seeking re-
election again this year.
