Ed shultz is going after Keith Olbermann....

[butterfly77]

because he doesn't like the fact that Shuster is on suspension. I like Shuster and Olbermann's commentary on a lot of things but Ed needs to shut his hypocritical ass up. One day he says he hates Bill and is against Hillary then on another day when callers get all over him he lies and says he has nothing against the Clintons and has said nothing against them...

[niyad]

1. he is going after keith for doing the hnourable thing? figures.

[mitchtv]

2. Smearing Keith in an effort to justify Shuster's language

No one is exempt from the faithful

[monmouth]

3. Ed who?? That bloviator is jealous that Keith has moved on up in

the biz and is making a great mark for himself. Keith says important things, covers important subjects, Ed bloviates. 'nuf said..

[itsrobert]

4. KO has used the term "pimping" before

He's just saying there is a double standard here.

[niyad]

12. kindly provide these times, and conte4xts. was he using the word about a person?

show us on the website, please.

[itsrobert]

13. I heard already from many here that context does not matter

Using the term "pimping" is derogatory no matter what. Is what has been what they have been saying.

[niyad]

14. please answer the question, WHERE and WHEN did KO say this?

it shouldn't be that hard to provide a link.

17. Context doesn't matter

It was in one of Olbermann's special commentaries:

http://www.nypost.com/seven/02112008/news/nationalnews/msnbc_pimped_gen___too_561282.htm

But Keith Olbermann, the network's chief left-wing Doberman, didn't suffer the same fate as suspended correspondent David Shuster when he accused President Bush last September of "pimping" the commander of US forces in Iraq.

"In pimping General David Petraeus and in the violation of everything this country has been assiduously and vigilantly against for 220 years, you have tried to blur the gleaming radioactive demarcation between the military and the political," Olbermann said in a Sept. 20, 2007, rant entitled "Your Hypocrisy is So Vast."

[butterfly77]

19. He said something about keith ,...

saying this relating to Betrayeus

[mitchtv]

22. It was meant to be derogatory in Keith;'s comment

Shuster denied it was anything more than slang. Yeah it's slang for procuring.

[mitchtv]

16. Keith said Bush was pimping Gen Petraeus

And he meant it to be demeaning, unlike those who claim Shuster was just using slang

10. What would Shultz prefer instead of suspension?

Something lighter or something harsher?
Sorry, but I didn't catch Keith's take on this.

[pdxmom]

11. It isn't even Keith's call. Shuster wasn't on Keith's show when he spouted

off. Ed needs to find some facts.

[alstephenson]

20. But KO apologized for MSNBC on his show. Same day that

Shuster "apologized" on Morning Joe.

[TheDebbieDee]

15. I put Ed on "ignore" two weeks ago......

[madfloridian]

18. No, he is not. He is showing the absurdity of Hillary's getting Shuster suspended

while ignoring all the other stuff going on.

[otohara]

21. Thank You

two men, same network!

KO: Bush was "pimping" General Betrayus
DS: Weird kinda way, Clinton's pimping Chelsea

One man stays, other man sent away for indefinite period.

23. Ed Schultz is an f---ing ass all he does is pimp for

Obama. I hope the f--- AA goes under if I want to hear someone smear the Clintons I will listen to Rush Limbaugh at least he is entertaining in his venom at times. As for AA everyone is clearly Obama supporters I have heard more trash talk on the Clintons on AA than on Fox lately. I just wonder who the MSM will pimp for when Obama is the Democratic nominee. Throughout this campaign the MSM has been pimping Obama and McCain both it will be interesting to see what they do next fall. They are going to be caught between a rock and hard place, if they pimp McCain the Obamites will claim racism, if the pimp Obama the McMainiacs will say they are picking on a war hero.:mad:

on edit: I know Ed f---ing Schultz is not AA but they carry him on XM. As far as AA goes they are all shills for Obama Randi Rhodes, Rachel Maddow, Lionel and Mike Malloy.

[ronnykmarshall]

24. Ed Schutlz is not part of Air America.

[doc03]

27. I know that but it goes for all the others that are on

AA. I have XM and they carry Ed F--ing Schultz.

[butterfly77]

25. For the people who think its fine...

what were Romney's sons doing on the campaign trail?

[ronnykmarshall]

26. Someone needs attention.

His ass is no longer on the air in Los Angeles!!!!

[AtomicKitten]

28. In the words of George Harrison, "It's all part of the stew."

Ed has strong opinions and so do we, the difference being he has a radio show to express his views.

The First Amendment is awesome.
