Steele: "Empathize right on your behind!"

[vaberella]

Okay so I had posted this as I saw it on the Ed Show. But I just found the Huffpost article on it and I can't wait to post it. Video link too!!! It's too damn funny.

Good morning y'all, we're back in the house. We're talking a little bit of Constitution and a little bit Supreme Court. And a whole lot of saving America's judicial system and saving our rights as citizens and not having empathetic judges decide cases, but rather judges who are actually understanding the rule of law and what the Constitution and those laws are all about. And how to apply the facts to the law and the law to the facts. And adjudicate my case. I don't need some judge sitting up there feeling bad for my opponent because of their life circumstances or their condition. And short changing me and my opportunity to get fair treatment under the law. Crazy nonsense empathetic. I'll give you empathy. Empathize right on your behind. Craziness.

Lordy...I'm lovin' that man more and more... :rofl:

For the Vid on DU.

1. I hope this guy lives to be 100.

11. You and me, both. n/t

2. What does that even mean?

But I WISH the Ed Show had played that clip last in that montage of RNC talking points they did last night. It would have been even funnier.

5. It doesn't matter. It's just a kind of tone poem

.

[vaberella]

10. Totally, that was the funniest thing.

I don't know what it means but I want him to keep talking.

13. that's Steele trying to sound "ethnic"

:eyes:

the more the merrier.

6. I'm hoping that one day the Ed Show will be available on podcast.

I seem to always miss it.

[vaberella]

12. I'm hoping that as well.

Currently you can just watch some video clips but he's definitely worthy of podcast. I like his show the best mainly because I love his panel of people. It's good for getting the different perspectives.

16. That's the one thing that I do not like about Keither. I mean, he had Mancow on the other night

but that was because Mancow agreed with him on the waterboarding. I have Republican friends who desperately want a reason to come to our side, but they complain that Keith doesn't invite alternative views on this shows so that they can hear how he argues in the presence of those who disagree with him. It's difficult to persuade people when they shut down. But there are some who know deep down that we're right. We just need to give them that final push. I know there are some people who don't like Ed, but he's on the right track.

7. Fo' shizzle, Mikey!

[Orsino]

8. He's so...*manly*!

Not afraid to use the word "behind," even. :eyes:

Jesus Christ. Adding the word "baby" to the same old talking points does not make one in any way cool.

[Ganja Ninja]

9. Does this guy have some kind of spanking fetish?

Are we all 5 years old to him? What a nut job.

[NatBurner]

14. it sounds kinda kinky

i'd need to see it done on someone else before i agree to it though

[OneGrassRoot]

17. ....

:spray: :fistbump:

[Jennicut]

15. LOL! He is hilarious. And crazy at the same time.

WTF is he even talking about half the time? Is he trying to sound cool? Its not working, but it is funny.
