Whoops! Sen. Chuck Schumer - thinking
his microphone was off yesterday - made a crack about a pesky reporter
that was heard clearly by other journalists. At a press conference outside
Pace University, Schumer said PLO strongman Yasser Arafat (news - web sites)
should be held personally responsible for the latest suicide bombings in
Israel. A female reporter asked if the president of Pakistan shouldn't
then be held responsible for supporting the Taliban. After Schumer answered,
he turned to other dignitaries, including Rep. Jerry Nadler and Mort Zuckerman,
and said, "I guess that lady was from Indian radio." For the record, she's
from WNYC.
