Ed Schultz Begins Show Saying 'Suck It Up Righties!'
Are the folks at MSNBC the slightest bit concerned anymore with showing even a hint of impartiality in their so-called "news" programming?
On Wednesday, Ed Schultz began the nationally televised show bearing his name saying, "Suck it up Righties!" (video follows with transcript and commentary):
ED SCHULTZ: Good evening, Americans, and welcome to the Ed Show tonight from New York. President Obama has Republicans cornered into backing the most radical budget in the history of America. Now Mitt Romney’s flaks are whining about the President being a bully? Suck it up Righties.
Interesting how he started with "Good evening, Americans."
After all, according to January's Gallup poll, 40 percent of Americans described themselves as conservative. This compared to only 21 percent claiming to be liberal.
This means Schultz began his show telling 40 percent of the nation to suck it up.
Is this really what should be acceptable on a so-called "news" network?

I kind of like him in a weird way. He reminds of those tough guys in the 1940s, in a trenchcoat, with a 45 tucked in their suit. Fedora... Cigarette....ah, ya big lug.
He's the personification of the Unhinged Left

I don't want him off the air. Let him rant, and recommend his show to friends who are uncertain about the issues.
Whenever anyone mentions Limbaugh as a ranting lunatic, I counter with Special Ed Schultz, Mike Malloy, Sturmbannfuhrer Olbermann, etc.

I miss Ed. One of the best commedians on TV. Since they moved him to late night I haven't watch him.
Man this dude is funny. Sadly he thinks he's a journalist.

Most radical budget in American history? Yea, right. Gimme a freakin break. It still increases spending by trillions. I guess it aint enough trillions for any good Leftist. Campaign time, and drama is the strategy.
"unprecedented"..........."most radical in American history".......................actually, that 2nd one may fit the president, though Wilson and FDR are in that mix already.
We need a radical budget.

Ryan's budget last year - -
Submitted by Gary Hall on Wed, 04/04/2012 - 9:38pm.
Isn't Ryan's bill more or less a rehash of his effort last year? (Certainly the President's ill-received budget proposal this year must be a rehash of his ill-received effort, last year)
Didn't CNN poll, nationally, and find that some 67% of the country supported the Ryan plan?
I seeing 67% to 21%, Noel.

I'd like to kick some sand, laced with 40% cayenne pepper, in Ed's face.

He has an endorser: The Nation Magazine (pinko commie bloody rag). They say his voice is essential to tv, but I SAY he has a face for radio. Hence, he has no listeners either.
They get a little angrier every day.

Their propaganda is falling short and they think they can fill the void with angry rhetoric.
If Obamacare care and the Wisconsin recall go down in June the lefties are going to be flinging their poo like angry zoo monkeys.
Ed does that already...

There's a reason why whenever I'm flipping channels and I come across MSNBC on the dial, I muted the TV. I don't want my young children hearing this guy, because I don't feel like having to explain to them why he said certain things you don't say on a "news" program.

The President's so called budget didn't get one vote. How does that fly that not one Demorat would vote for it and not make the press? Then listen to Debbie (From LA) W-S say there is no budget because of the Republican's?
I don't expect fair coverage but at least someone someplace would have the nads to ask?,,,,Guess not.
Please?

Stop using "MSNBC" and "news", or even "organization", in the same article. They are mutually exclusive terms.
