Sen. Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat with impeccable liberal credentials, is becoming the most fearsome hunter since Elmer Fudd or maybe Dick Cheney.

The Brooklyn resident recently traveled to Nebraska to go on a hunting trip with his colleague and fellow Democrat Ben Nelson, reports Politico.com. At first, the novice hunter needed to understand the basics -- things like a shotgun won't shoot with the safety on, and that hunting dogs aren't there just to hang out, the website says.

Schumer, the chairman of the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee, apparently looked rather Fudd-like in his orange safety vest and matching baseball hat. Politico says he refused to wear hunting boots.

Schumer needs to be careful! Hunting “accidents” can happen! Especially when you don’t know what you are doing!

More importantly, the Democrat was able to help secure Nelson's vote for the mammoth health-care reform bill six weeks later.

Now we know the full story. Nelson voted for cloture to avoid being shot by Schumer.

I would (and could) throw him quite a way.

(But, of course, I still wouldn’t trust him that far.)

The press learned it’s lesson with Dukakis. Won’t show Shumer in his hunting duds.

Maybe Schumer can learn the excitement and joy of stalking and shooting birds. He will then better understand how elated we feel when the season opens up on liberal Democrats.

Schumer got 3 pheasants? How is that possible? My guess is ground shooting planted birds.
