"Going to War"?

According to the Drudge Report, Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) was overhead discussing the Supreme Court nomination on the phone on an Amtrack train, and saying -- before a nominee has even been chosen! --

“We are contemplating how we are going to go to war over this.”

Later in the conversation, Schumer noted:

“Even William Rehnquist is more moderate than they expected. The only ones that resulted how they predicted were [Antonin] Scalia and [Ruth Bader] Ginsburg. So most of the time they've gotten their picks wrong, and that's what we want to do to them again.”

Hope someone's getting ready to make an ad about this! And by the way, Senator Schumer, Republicans realize we're not (or shouldn't be!) in a war at home -- we're busy fighting terrorists overseas. Remember? Maybe not.

In light of the war coming to London this morning, doesn't Chuck Schumer sound rather... small?
