Reader comment on: Schumer and 'Extreme'

With apologies to Percy Bysshe Shelley, author of Ozymandias

I met a well-known pundit in D.C.
Who said: Within the Senate leadership
There is against us and our liberty,
One man who carries in his iron grip
The life and death of legislative acts
And temper to destroy, instead of lose,
All those whose voice and vote he feels he lacks
Or those who would his dark demands refuse.
And on his ornate Senate office door
In Latin script of longhand does appear:
"My name is Charles Schumer, God of War:
My bidding do, or I your name will smear."
And so has he defamed the GOP
With calumny discharged both night and day,
As those uncompromising and extreme:
For they would budget what we can repay.
