Ed Shultz leading off with the attack on the lady by RW brownshirts at

[malaise]

the Rand Paul rally

[malaise]

1. Holy shit that video is frightening

Ed is showing it again and again. Showing the uniformed police officer who does nothing to stop it.

Ed is pissed.

[napi21]

2. Maybe that's why the local police dept. hasn't charged anyone yet?

I would have thought with the video in had charges would have been fairly quick!

[gateley]

7. So did Tweety. I couldn't watch and I haven't opened any threads here. The

utter violence and hatred of people like this, with no compassion for fellow human beings, literally makes me feel sick to my stomach. I'm getting tears in my eyes just typing this.

I hold all the Republicans and RW talk show hosts totally responsible for preying on peoples' fears and prejudices. They've whipped them into this frenzy and I don't know where it's going. All for the love of money and power. :cry:

[prolesunited]

3. He's doing a great job.

[malaise]

5. Showing the tape again

This is great -nail these ReTHUGS. Go Ed!

[flamingdem]

4. Will this make it to the mainstream? Not just MSNBC, has it? nt

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. We are were some of us predicted

It will get worst

[malaise]

10. Now you know why I describe all of them as

ReTHUGS

[nadinbrzezinski]

26. I prefer Fascist

:hi:

[eleny]

8. He's doing a good job laying it on the line denouncing the "both sides" meme

[malaise]

12. Only ReTHUGS have first amendment rights

Don't you know????

[eleny]

13. And their goons appear to have more rights than the rest of us

[Matariki]

25. Good. I'm really glad to hear that.

I don't have cable. Thanks for the info.

[meow mix]

9. i need this segment linked asap. hope its on youtube

hes on fire

[malaise]

11. Brilliant

Go Ed!!!
Says he could show video from 1930s Germany and matched it up with this. Damn!!!

Justin Ruben from Move-On on Ed.

[kentuck]

14. Rand Paul was about 10 to 15 feet away....

not 15 or 20 yards as Ed said.

[eleny]

17. The important fact is that they had her subdued on the ground

And his foot was *no* inches from her head.

[kentuck]

24. But the guy that threw her down slammed her head on the pavement...

which could have caused a concussion?

[Joanne98]

15. GO ED!

[malaise]

20. He's still showing the video and discussing this

horrific act of violence.
Great show Ed.

[senseandsensibility]

16. He did a great job!

I missed the beginning of this story, and he recapped it all well, and showed the real outrage that the rest of the media will not. He also called Paul out on the "both sides do it" whine that the corporate media swallows hook. line, and sinker.

[B Calm]

18. A reporter gets handcuffed-kidnapped in Alaska by RW brownshirts, now this.

[malaise]

19. Just imagine how both would have been covered if they

were Democratic party members.
ReTHUGS


Ed is still discussing this - go Ed!

[Bitwit1234]

23. You don't know how true the kidnapping statement is I posted

that earlier because since the security company does not have a license they have no authority to arrest anybody much less handcuff them. So essentially it was kidnapping and the reporter is stupid if he doesn't file charges and a lawsuit against the company. Suing these people and making them pay is the only thing they understand since money is their God.

[SoCalDem]

21. Ed does not realize it, but HE's complicit in a small way

He railed on about the "both sides" shit we have all been complaining about ...well...forever.

EVERY time he has that idiot Heidi Whatshername or the goofy-eyed guy or any other garden-variety republican slug, he is giving them yet another forum to air their venomous tripe. The argument made is always along the lines of "well, it's good to see what our enemies are up to".. really? do we need our few hours of progressive viewing/listening to be polluted with their nonsense, when they already have 24/7 available on Fox and many/most have their own columns/op ed gigs/radio/tv shows? By inviting them on his show, he's playing the "both-sides" game they want him to play.

Precious time is gobbled up by these air-hogs who never have anything constructive to add to any conversation, and the time they waste could be put to much better use.

Ed needs to do a gut-check and just stop having these nutcases on his show.

[malaise]

22. Excellent point

:hi:
