Are you listening to David Schuster on MSNBC now?
WOW did he tear Sarah"s speech apart!

He poointed out that she ridiculed Obama for never using the word war...although he does.
She said Alaska supplies 20% of the US oil...but it's reeally 2%-3%.
She ridiculed Obama for using a teleprompter..but she cribbed notes on her hand.

The liost goes on. He did a great job!

1. That was great
Shuster is not afraid of the loonies and the hacks.

3. I like him a LOT! He doesn't pussyfoot around, even when he's
face to face with a guest. Sorry I missed it!

22. I like Dylan R a lot, and he brings the $$$ expertise which helps
me understand that aspect of our mess, so I'm happy he's there. But I really would like to see David have his own SHOW - not just the newsy thing they have him doing.

32. I Like Ratigan A LOT Too... I KNOW There Are "Some" Here Who Think
he's just a traitor or something, however I would say he's been around a LOT of "traders" and knows a thing or two. I'm also one who ADORES David Shuster and have wondered WHY he hasn't been given a real spot to shine! I once thought that maybe he didn't want to get under the lights in that way, but now have changed my mind, YES, I CAN change my mind as I think ANYONE can...!!! There isn't anyone here who should think that this kind of CHANGE is a bad thing.

David has been moved all around at MSNBC and I wonder why they don't drop at least ONE of Tweety's shows, perhaps the earlier on and give it to Shuster! I realize they re-run Olberman & Maddow, but Tweety gets THREE shots a night. At least that's what I see on my Tee-Vee!

Shuster is very good at what he does and it IS time they realized it!

42. Using Tweety's repeat would be just perfect. Have Tweety, Ed,
then David. Problem solved :7 I'm one of the few who likes Tweety, but even I turn to CNN when the repeat airs after Ed/before Keith.

Okay - let's send an e-mail requesting that David get his own spot. Leave the others doing the news, they do it well, but David has much more to offer. :hi:

Edited on Mon Feb-08-10 03:18 PM by Greenpeach
They even quote her, cleaning up her lousy grammar, etc. and never alluding to the fact that she's a snarky, lying idiot who constantly trashes the President, with statements that should be considered libelous. I like David Schuster

6. I think we should call it Sarah's Screech.
She doesn't give speeches she gives screeches.

13. LOL, "screech" is perfect. I cannot stand the shrill sound of her voice and her

pronunciation and her mannerisms (let alone the "content"), I'd rather have a lobotomy than listen to her speech for an hour (or however long).

This woman is excruciating, on all levels.

17. like fingers on a blackboard
My ears literally hurt when I listen to her. It's weird. I have to switch channels every few minutes just to give my ears a break. I had to take aspirin Saturday after watching her teabag screech. That high-pitched/nasally combo is painful.

30. How can you call it a screech after the MSM worked so hard
to promote it.. I mean report it. All the pundits on TV who said such nice things about her screech, and ABC, CBS, and NBC tripping over themselves to give her screech the top spot in news cast after news cast that day and the days that followed. Never mind that they ignored war protests for years that dwarfed this tea bagger partay, this screech of Palin's was the most important thing going at the time.

33. Please note that in the part of that clip that shows her being interviewed
about her presidential aspirations, she clearly consults her hand when answering a question. Watch it.

My Gawd!! :wow:

10. No, but I listened to Morning Joe this morning, and all of them -

- including Mika, Scarborough, Chuck Todd and Andrea Mitchell - were pretty much trashing her and almost openly laughing at her. Hey, it turns out that even Chris Wallace in his interview with her was basically suppressing laughter and rolling his eyes! It was fun to watch actually. After listening to that segment, I'm convinced that Palin is an absolute and total joke and nothing but laughing stock and subject of embarrassment even for the GOP. She is not going to run. The M$M is not building her up (like they did with *), they are tearing her down. She is not presidential material, period, she is just a distraction.

12. However .... they may be pretending to critique her because of their own race for
statistics - against FOX.

On the other hand - I think all seven prominent networks get the exact talking point from Republicans which is really propaganda. Only a few personalities have permission to break with the mobs at the combined talking heads who are always 'coming from same place'.

15. Shuster is really good and doesn't let people intimidate him.
I watched him take on Joey The Scar without fear.
Scar was downright scary and mean. Scar was yelling, sarcastic and trashing Shuster because he wouldn't back down to him.
I thought the studio chairs were going to fly!
(I was secretly hoping David would lay him out)}(

18. I didn't hear it, but I'm going to K&R this just because it's about my David
I heart him.

:loveya:

He's like a male Rachel--smart, all about the facts, and will call people on their BS without backing down, but still totally likable and personable.

25. give 'ABC's This Week' to David Schuster -

I'd love to see him give everyone a good run up one side of their lies and back down the other. And actually, I think he's be an equal opportunity truth teller given the format of This Week. But it would certainly be fireworks every weekend for those that brought their lies to share.

27. That is exactly why I want her dumb ass to run in 2012....
she can be reduced to rubble for her ignorant, uninformed opinions once and for all. Not to mention, how she walked off and quit her job as gov of ak.

Between her actual political experience, her palm reading and her complete and total lack of knowing anything, from her basic knowledge with figures and even basic geography, she's a gift.

RUN SARAH RUN...

31. Yes, but Baggers and Repubs don't let reality and facts get in their way ...
.... they have a rationalization for every stupid thing Caribou Barbie does/says.

Our best hope is that she officially declares for the Bagger Party and splits the GOP into crazy and crazier, thus marginalizing both factions for the indefinite future.

34. The choir loves being preached to!
This is meaningless in the big picture. The people who need to hear this message would never, ever listen to anything on MSNBC. And even if Schuster's comments made national headlines, because it was MSNBC the people who need to hear this will just say it's all lies made up my the left-wing media.

But we here on DU love it! Can't argue with that!

36. Good for Schuster--but Palin is an EASY target.
I still have a sour taste in my mouth from a panel he was on with Anderson Cooper earlier this year.

Cooper asked him to comment on interviews they just aired--one with Dennis Kucinich, one with Dick Cheney.

Schuster: "Can we just..not.. do Kucinich right now.." And then he went on to give Cheney legitimate analysis. Fuck Schuster.:shrug:

37. So, The other side of the "Change" Coin rears its ugly head.
I guess WE ALL need our bogymen, Don't we.

Palin's an ignoramus, a distraction, She simply keeps the eyes looking elsewhere.
AS is her purpose.

39. not really
I got away from people like that in 2005. It was Bill O and Sean Hannity I got away from. Giving me headaches all the time. John's always looking for a fight. Well not always but usually. When he hosts Countdown I will not watch it.
