Schultz: I'll Make Mike Pence 'Pray To The Porcelain God'

By Mark Finkelstein | December 01, 2010 | 21:07

A  A

Just when you thought Ed Schultz couldn't get any grosser . . .

On his MSNBC show this evening, Schultz bragged that by the time he was done with Mike Pence, the GOP congressman from Indiana would be "praying to the porcelain god."

Schultz made his vulgar boast in a tease for a subsequent "Psycho Talk" segment in which the MSNBC host took Pence to task for suggesting that Joe the Plumber had it right in 2008.


We can imagine that—far from embracing the bowl—Mike Pence is laughing at Ed . . . and thanking him for the free plug.   Here's Ed, who—as you'll note—commits yet another gaffe, calling Pence "Senator" before a producer in his ear presumably corrects his latest bungle.

ED SCHULTZ: Coming up, Senator Mike Pence--Congressman Mike Pence--is looking to Joe the Plumber for advice on the economy. This guy Pence is clogged up with nothing but Psycho Talk. Well you know what?  He's going to be praying to the porcelain god when I'm done with him in the Zone.

Nota Bene: Pence wasn't a guest on the show.  Schultz merely played a video clip of the congressman.   Cheap valor, bragging of reducing someone to the bowl when you're not confronting him man-to-man.

Submitted by BD on Thu, 12/02/2010 - 9:29am.

Makes one wonder about Shultz's ability to form logical thought. 

He apparently equates the following logic train "Appearance on Shultz show = Vomitus = good for Shultz" as being a positive for this show?

What the hell?

It is like saying "Come on my show and suffer dysentary".  It is just not a good thing to quate your show with it, is it Edward?

Suggestion for Cnn and Msdnc to increase ratings.  Put Spitzer, Parker and Shultz together and broadcast it on both networks at the same time. They could call it Whoremonger, Rino and Fat Ed. This would encrease both shows ratings by the hundreds.

Ed can't even carry on a coherent conversation

Submitted by TheHistorian on Thu, 12/02/2010 - 6:51am.

Pence would want to vomit after about a five minute interview with Schultz.  The big fat oaf cannot carry on a coherent conversation with himself.

Pence is right BTW; Joe the Plumber got Obama to reveal himself, but the lieberals like Ed cannot stand the fact that he was really unmasked.  Ed, what part of what Joe Wurzelbacher said is untrue about Obama and how is it untrue?  And what part of what Obama said was a lie?  Joe, as a small businessman, should be a part of the advisory team to the Republicans.  Dump large business; they are trying to stand with Obama, so they have made their bed in the Democrat camp; let them live there.

This just in from AP:

 

Michelle Obama stated this morning she will be promoting a new health and safety initiative. Ms Obama said "I recently saw the grossly obese Ed Schultz, who I think hosts a TV show, get into a small, private plane and take off while I was exiting Air Force One and I must say I was truly frightened. A pilot of that extreme girth is a hazard to the health of the nation! If he fell out of the sky I don't know how many of our poor citizens would be killed, plus the possible damage to our infrastructure is unimaginable." Ms Obama is going to ask her husband to pass legislation that will regulate the weight of pilots of private airplanes to some reasonable level.

Bar fight still on the table, Fat Eddie.

Submitted by Newsbubba on Thu, 12/02/2010 - 12:19pm.

I'll (once again) invite the slob and his MSNBC buddies to a friendly bar fight with my drinking buddies and me any time he likes.  We're old, mostly vets, and hopelessly out of shape, but feel certain that we can take the likes of Special Ed, Keefie, Prissy Chrissy, Dingle Berry Larry, and any others that he wants to invite to attend.

Same rules apply.  This isn't a threat, but rather a wager to see who buys after the "contest."  Bring everything you've got lard ass, except Maddow.  We've been discussing it, and she still scares the hell out of us.   The rest of you, not so much.

By the way, any of you posters who meet the qualifications (old, out of shape, drink too much) are welcome to join in.  Don't even think about it if you're some young stud who can actually land a punch.  We want them to have a fair chance, unlike the way they ambush their guests, or treat their targets of scorn.

Also, any of you ladies who feel the need to beat the crap out of a sissy liberal are welcome.

So, come on Eddie.  I heard you wuz a foobol playa.
