Chuck Schumer Caught on Tape Instructing Fellow Dems on How to Spin Media, Networks Ignore

"The New York Times' Caucus blog explained:"
After thanking his colleagues — Barbara Boxer of California, Benjamin L. Cardin of Maryland, Thomas R. Carper of Delaware and Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut — for doing the budget bidding for the Senate Democrats, who are facing off against the House Republicans over how to cut spending for the rest of the fiscal year, Mr. Schumer told them to portray John A. Boehner of Ohio, the speaker of the House, as painted into a box by the Tea Party, and to decry the spending cuts that he wants as extreme. “I always use the word extreme,” Mr. Schumer said. “That is what the caucus instructed me to use this week.”
The Extremists are Coming! The Extremists are Coming! "Any casual observer of Schumer over the years knows labeling opponents extremists is his stock in trade, as ubiquitous as his Sunday press conferences. In Schumer's world, anyone to the right of Joseph Stalin is an extremist. What's newsworthy, I suppose, is the media finally notices this and the coordinated efforts by Democrats trash Republicans at every opportunity. Still, it'll be in the news cycle for a short period, quickly forgotten until the next press conference, when he'll probably change things up and call the GOP "radical extremists" instead."
