I've had it with Ed Schultz

[boston bean]

Just what in the hell does he think he is doing by calling Bill Clinton a liar?

Does he think that is going to unite the party?

This is the most invasive, divisive shit to come down the pike.

He has Daschle on and never once says he works for the Obama campaign.

He has thoroughly disgusted me.

You want to talk about damaging the party Schultz, take a look in the mirror.

[K Gardner]

1. Ed is telling the truth. Something that HRC and supporters seem to be unable to do, nor are they

able to hear it, evidently.

[boston bean]

3. Obama can get in the mud too, very obviously. He has never been vetted, ever.

There are many questions that need to be asked, but won't be.

That is what the Clinton campaign is complaining about.

Anyone who can't see that, aint looking.

[Major Hogwash]

43. Vetted? By who, the DLC? The American people are going to vet Obama!

For the first time in a long time.

[papau]

17. Ed Schultz's spin means he is the one not telling the "truth" - he has followed Lieberman out of the

party - IMO

[gaiilonfong]

19. GO ED GO EDS GO ED GO ED

Tell it like it is. He has alot of supporters, He is a populist and KNOWS how awful the CLINTONS are for the party

GO ED

37. Ed is a tool...

who is incapable of rational thought.

[TwilightGardener]

2. I don't care for him either. He's not always the most informed guy, but that

never stops him from spouting off.

[jillan]

4. This is exactly what is wrong with the Dem party - they eat their own.

Just what is he going to say if Hillary wins the nomination?

[avaistheone1]

5. I don't think Schultz is being fair, he is coming off as a dim wit again.

but it is probably good for his ratings.

[wyldwolf]

6. funny thing about Ed Schultz - he used to be considered a DLC shill here...

a "rightwinger who is only doing 'progressive' talk to make money."

Funny how, when the 'enemy' says something you like, the 'enemy' becomes a hero.

[Kucinich4America]

10. The reverse is also true.

All of those DLC'ers who used to love Ed, turned on him the minute he dared to challenge the Holy Clintons.

[avaistheone1]

26. No one ever accused Big Ed of doing real research or deep thinking either.

I think he sounds rather ego manical today. Sorry, I don't hear much substance in what Ed is spewing today.

And I don't support the Clintons either.

[jenmito]

7. It's the Clintons damaging the party-not Ed. Sorry.

[boston bean]

8. Bull! Calling someone a liar is going way beyond the pale.

just cause you like hearing it said, doesn't make it right.

[avaistheone1]

14. At least in the particular case Ed is ranting about, I don't believe it is true.

I don't believe Ed is making a very good case that Clinton is lying.

BTW I am not a Clinton supporter.

[John Q. Citizen]

22. The whole country already knows Clinton is a liar. It's not anything new. Or do you

still think he never had sex with that woman?

The point is, Clinton lies when he thinks it will benefit him. Does that shock you? If it does, you are awfully naive.

[avaistheone1]

25. Sorry, Schultz is ranting and not really making his point..

He is playing with the audience to get ratings. He sounds like a foolish blowhard.

BTW I am not a Clinton supporter or hater.

[Andromeda]

36. Been there, done that, Ducky...

Or do you want to start the Ken Starr investigation all over again? I think we had enough of it but I guess some people just can't let it go.

Get off your moralistic high horse, HE LIED ABOUT SEX! Clinton had a b.j. and nobody died.

[John Q. Citizen]

46. Oh, yeah. He lied about sex. So that makes him not a liar. If he were smart he woulda said

"None of your fucking business."

I'm wondering, what lies aren't lies and what lies are lies, according to you, peaches, I mean from your amoralistic low horse perspective?

Was it impeachable? Absolutely not. Was it a lie? Absolutely. Right into the camera. Hence, regardless of the fact that it wasn't impeachable, it was still a lie. Everyone knows that except for you. I'm sure in your world, the Clinton are physically and emotionally incapable of being unethical. That's hero worship for you. Lots of bush's supporters attribute the same un-human qualities to george, also. Like you, they see their hero as infallible, and unable to tell a lie.

I also don't believe his lie to the civil jury was impeachable. However, I do think the suspension of his law license was warranted.

I don't think telling a lie, whether to the country via the TV cameras or to the jury is de facto an impeachable offense. It's the nature of the lie.

Is the lie harmful to the US? Is the lie intended to defraud congress and the country about something relevant to congress and the country? That's the test of impeachability.

Just being a liar like Clinton doesn't warrant impeachment.

george warrants impeachment. I wonder why Clinton (either one)won't say that?

[Andromeda]

47. You're making a lot of assumptions...

and I'm calling you on your BS right now! I never said that Bill Clinton never lied about sex. Most people do if confronted. I'm not saying it's right but people do stupid things sometimes.

Judging from your post you don't know too much. I don't worship the Clintons. I'm just realistic and don't expect people to be perfect. If they make mistakes that makes them human.

Have you ever lied about anything? That would make you a liar too, according to your "standards."

And what does my "amoralistic low horse perspective" mean? You don't even know me and you're calling me amoral!

There is no such thing as a "low horse" anything. I think you just pulled that one out of your arse.

Unless you're Jesus H. Christ I wouldn't put such moral judgements on other people.

Fark you and the high horse you rode in on.

[John Q. Citizen]

54. If you don't like assumption why do you make them? Do you think you are immune?

Better than other people? You can call people you don't know names, but if they do the same to you, you presume you have the right to be outraged?

Make all the excuses you want for your heroes.

I stand by my original statement. The whole country knows Bill Clinton is a liar.

If you want to pretend that isn't true, go for it. You are the one who has to look yourself in the mirror everyday.

That fact you have to resort to spelling-changed-obscenities should tip you off to the fact you have no arguement, but on the other hand, some people have absolutely no self awareness.

That's sad, but hey, that's life.

[Andromeda]

33. Sorry---ED is damaging the party.

Not the Clintons. Stop drinking the Koolaid, you'll feel better.

[Unsane]

9. Says the Billary shill...

[boston bean]

27. Says the Obama Holla

[LisaM]

11. He talked to Leahy yesterday (I think) and Leahy is an Obama supporter also

Ed can have anyone he wants on his show, but he should probably qualify these guests.

[davidwparker]

12. "Bill Clinton a liar" - He is. And after 7 years of *, his act is old. I

have to turn the TV when he comes on because I can't stand to hear him.

[TwilightZone]

13. He's mad because Hillary wouldn't come on his show.

Who could blame her?

[butterfly77]

15. I heard him on the show today saying..

he doesn't like Bill and spewing all of the right wing terms. He is so angry as though it is something personal. He said so many things and he got angry with callers because they were showing him where he was wrong on certain points.

[bahrbearian]

16. Hey watch how you talk about the #1 Progressive Radio Host

He is always way behind on the discussion, he has to have his listeners fill him in on the Happening's
He is just in it for publicity. Go drink a load of cool ones Little Eddie.

[Arugula Latte]

30. He's dumber than a box of rocks and slower than molasses in January.

[LittleClarkie]

18. What if he were calling Obama a liar

Would that be okay then? Would he be damaging the party then?

[boston bean]

20. Yes it would be.

[DURHAM D]

21. It would not be ok. It would be damaging to the party.

Ed is just about Ed. He wants ratings.

And then, of course, there is that little problem of Hillary not coming on his little show.

[Andromeda]

39. It would be better if he'd

just tell the truth. Unusual concept, I know, but he/she/they should try it sometime. It's rather liberating.

[Major Hogwash]

44. But then he would be like Keith Olbermann, he'd be a-okay!

And just peachy keen.

[Major Hogwash]

45. Then he'd be like Keith Olbermann, he'd be a-okay.

And everything would be perfumed roses.

[BeyondGeography]

23. He's not just a liar

He's an unusually good liar.

[Nimrod2005]

28. Bill Clinton is the biggest fucking liar IN THE WORLD!

[nolabels]

51. No, * has that wrapped up,

He might be somewhere in the running but we are debating about politicians so what would one expect :shrug:

[peoli]

29. If Bill Clinton didnt lie then he wouldnt be called a liar.

[David Zephyr]

34. "Now, I want you to listen to me good. I did not have sexual relations with that woman..."

That would be lying.

[marlakay]

31. He basically said the truth that Bill needs to stop

what he is doing for the good of the party..

For a long time I could tell Bill and Hillary will do anything to get elected no matter what happens or if a repub gets in because of the dirt they fling.

They are all for themselves...its obvious and I don't blame Ed at all for calling him out on it.

[Andromeda]

32. He was on Hardball yesterday.

And I was so disgusted at that Rush Limbaugh wannabe I wanted to puke. :puke: The man is stupid and shouldn't be allowed near a camera.

The "Clinton is a liar" meme is making the talk-show circuit and all the talking heads are jumping on the bandwagon. Shultz isn't the only one. CNN, MSNBC and some other radio talk shows are all falling in line.

"Hillary and Bill are liars." That's the meme. They don't say what it is they're lying about because they might have to do some research and that would be work. Heaven forbid that they might have to do some reading and actually learn the truth.

I won't stand for this and if people want fairness and accuracy in this presidential campaign they need to make their feelings known.

[OmahaBlueDog]

35. Ed is in the entertainment business...

If he didn't get folks fired up, he's get no ratings, and he'd have no advertisers.

[avaistheone1]

38. Ding! Ding! Ding!

You are right on the money. The Schultz Show is alot of hot air.

[Tactical Progressive]

40. Barack Obama is the biggest Democratic liar I've ever seen

Maybe Ed Schultz has Bill and Barack confused?

[pstans]

41. Wow, Ed's telling like it is.

[Major Hogwash]

42. Ed's great - he caught Bill talking out of both sides of his mouth again!

But, but, but, Bill's not running for President!

Hahahaha - tell that to Bill!

[Joe the Revelator]

48. If Bill wasn't a liar, Ed wouldn't have to call him one.

nt

[Colobo]

49. Viva Ed! Viva Obama!

[GalleryGod]

50. ED is Honest; Bill/Hill= the most megalomaniacal couple in Politics

:puke: go blow YOURSELF, Little Dawg

[Hieronymus]

52. I'll bet you have .. you and lots of Hillary supporters.

[IndianaGreen]

53. Bill Clinton is not only a liar, he is a BIG LIAR!

Ed Schultz is doing a great job!
