Our first reaction was, “Really? Chuck Schumer wrote a book?”
Our second reaction was, “Hmmm. Surprised it sold that many copies?”
And our third reaction was, “This massive rejection by America’s literati may help explain why the New York Democrat’s always in such a pissy mood.”
The New York Post reports Schumer’s tale of stone cold sales:
“Politicos are snickering at the plight of Sen. Charles Schumer, who holds more press conferences than any other lawmaker but can’t seem to connect with the public. His book, “Positively American,” released in 2007, sold 9,000 copies in hardcover and fewer than 1,000 in paperback, according to Nielsen Bookscan, which tracks about 75 percent of the nation’s book sales. By comparison, Sarah Palin’s “Going Rogue” sold 1 million copies in two weeks.”
Far be it from us to doubt the New York Post, but we think its story contains a major error.
We don’t doubt that people are snickering at Schumer. We’re just not sure it has anything to do with his book.

Poor Chuck Schumer was born with an unfortunate birthmark on his face. Technically its called a smirk.
What is funny is that there are libs who the NYSlimes to make a seperate list for conservative books because many of the books on the NYSlimes bestseller lists have been, well, conservative. The left hate seeing names like Palin, Levin, Coulter, O'Reilly, Beck, & Malkin on the list.
As for the Cluster-Schmuck, he ain't so worried about his book sales. He got paid for his book, the check has been cashed, so what? He's getting ready to take over Harry Reid's job as Majority Leader because Chucky knows Harry is a goner in November.
The guy who called us the 'chattering class' thinks he knows how to connect with us? The only connection I want with him is my foot in a rapid upward arc towards his groin.
Schumer should have used the word "Teabagger" in the title. At least that way Olbermann and Madcow would have added two sales to the total.
Let's see, NRA has nearly 4 million members, Sarah Palin sells 2.7 million books . . . . . anyone else see a connection??? Or maybe it's cuz she's smokin' hot ?? Oh wait, she's like the rest of us unwashed masses who work for a living. and what she has to say makes sense.
Schumer is such a dolt, I'm surprised he even got elected and somehow keeps his job. How is it these morons always rise to the top and get the cool gigs????????
