[videos] MSNBC commentator Ed Schultz stated that Republicans want Americans to die, and they enjoy it when middle-aged women contract cancer. He then suggested that Republican Sen. Olympia Snowe should allow tumors to spread through her body if she ever gets cancer. Schultz also screamed, "The Republicans lie! They want to see you dead! They'd rather make money off your dead corpse! They kinda like it when that woman has cancer and they don't have anything for her..." After equating the GOP with the Cancer Caucus, Ed brandished a death wish against Olympia Snowe: "Now Olympia Snowe, I'm not wishing bad on you at all, but if you get cancer in your stomach, Sen. Snowe, what I would like you to do is to wait two weeks to see a doctor." He invited Rep. Michelle Bachman (R-MN) to his show and invited her "to slit her wrist right here on 'The Ed Show.'" Among many other things, Schultz has accused Republicans of wanting to kill Obama: "Sometimes I think they [conservatives] want Obama to get shot. I do! I really think there are conservative broadcasters in this country who would love to see Obama taken out. They fear socialism. They fear Marxism." Such red-faced rant is typical of "The Ed Show," not the exception.

What you think of as a true conservative is so far off the mark it’s absurd. I’m not as anti-O’Reilly as many on this site are, but he’s not a “true” conservative. As far as libertarianism, when it comes to economic issues, the conservative movement has always sided with the libertarians. Here’s a quote from The Gipper himself, “If you analyze it I believe the heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism.” What is your definition of “true” conservatism? My definition is two-fold. The simplest way of describing my philosophy is a conservative use of government. Government should only be used when absolutely necessary. The other part of my definition of conservatism is an originalist interpretation of the Constitution. You strike me as more of a Richard Nixon conservative. In other words, you are a leftist.
