Schumer: Blowhard With Imperial Gas

Seems like Chuckles doesn't like all that "Federalism" stuff.

Chuck Schumer wants the White House's Office of Management and Budget to tell states they have no choice in the use of porkulus funds.

...This stems from Gov. Bobby Jindal and others saying they would not take the whole package because some parts would force state tax increases to comply with the terms of Porkulus.

Schumer says that's tough. States will be forced to increase taxes and take 100% of the money if he has his way. And the states will have no discretion

Well, maybe it's about time to try this before a Federal Court.
