Schumer's brother-in-law named judge

From Fox 5:

Sen. Charles Schumer's brother-in-law was quietly nominated this month to a federal judgeship in New Jersey -- a move that has some in the Garden State crying political foul.

Kevin McNulty, who is married to Schumer's sister, Fran, was named to the US District Court by the White House late last week.

According to a boilerplate quote, President Barack Obama said McNulty is a "distinguished individual" who "will serve the American people with integrity and a steadfast commitment to justice."

New Jersey's two Democratic senators, Frank Lautenberg and Robert Menendez, followed that up with their own news release heaping praise on the nominee.

What no one mentioned is that McNulty, 57, was the last-minute choice of Lautenberg, who had been leaning toward other candidates until surprisingly submitting McNulty's name to the White House.

"Here come the judge. Here come the judge".

Now the fix is really in!

Smarmee Schumer wins another round.

We need term limits for ALL career politicians....municipal, state and federal!

Get a real job!

Go back to your family's exterminating business Chuckles...and stop exterminating our taxes for the sake of inflating your overblown ego and providing perpetual job security!

In return, no doubt, Shumer will nominate one of Lautenberg's relatives for a NY judgeship.

Schumer's daughter is still single, if anyone is seeking to marry into this family.

C.Schumer was a pro-forced buser in Albany. and marches at the Douglaston Memorial Day parade with his name on political signs.

he voted for the obamacare law, which hi-jacks $500 billion from senior citizen's medicare benefits.

when the issue comes before the fed. courts in N.J.,schumer and obama's boy will vote the LEFT way.

The name of the game is cronyism. Schumer will have to scratch someones back for this favor. There has to be a better way to appoint judges. Schumer needs to go. He's been around way too long. Same with Lautenberg. How old is he? Eighty? Time to put him in a home.

From Wikipedia: Lautenberg was born on Jan 23, 1924. So he'll be 88 next month.
