That`s all coming up. But this is the story that has me fired up first tonight.
Glenn Beck and I have had this war of words all week long over this so-called Restoring Honor rally in Washington. Now, I don`t think he restored any honor to this nation with his preachy, phony, self-centered sermon about bringing the country back to God.

Labor has key role in restoring U.S.
By Rev. Jesse L. Jackson Sr.
There are so many vacant lots in Detroit that serious plans are being made to start up family farming there — 90,000 vacant lots and homes boarded up.
Detroit suffers record unemployment. Not one chain grocery store does business in Detroit. Not one national chain retail store. Detroit residents travel to the suburbs to shop, spending $2 billion a year outside the city.
Detroit's agony is mirrored by labor's decline. The U.S. lost one of three manufacturing jobs during the last decade. We suffered a staggering $5.9 trillion in trade losses, running up deficits that required borrowing $2 billion a day from abroad. As manufacturing declined, so did labor unions. In the 1950s and ‘60s, labor unions represented about 33 percent of private employees. Now labor represents less than 15 percent of the work force, and less than 8 percent of the private work force. The major growing unions have been public employees, now under assault from budget cuts and attacks on pensions.
America must choose. Do we stay wedded to the wrong ideas and cater to the powerful interests that have put us in the hole we are in or go another way?
That other way must be built from the bottom up, from people coming together to demand jobs and justice. Here labor is essential, and labor is stirring. In Detroit last weekend, labor, led by the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, UAW, SEIU and AFSCME, joined with the Detroit NAACP, SCLC and other civil rights groups, ministers and concerned citizens -- the very coalition that led the civil rights movement.
This march will lead to others, and culminate on Oct. 2 for the One Nation march and rally in Washington, D.C.

Hey, Ed.....”Fat, Drunk and Stupid is no way to go through life”.
This little factoid brought to you by "Whole Cloth Creations".
Uhhhhhhhh....Ed......If Ubama is doing such a great job, what needs to be turned around?
Special labor day ‘March for jobs’ ping!
Who needs employers?? We will march instead. Jobs come from Obama as do our rights. LOL
The Obama economy is so bad...that it only takes one lick to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop.
You mean there's more than one?
economic justice = socialism
Scary resemblance to Karl Rove.
Ed: Prove it.
The only way this loser can get any air time is by attacking someone who’s got the ratings and visibility. He couldn’t get any attention without using that tactic.
Kinda like a flea trying to take advantage of an elephant.
Of course, the sign thing is a lose-lose straw man. If people had brought signs, the non-political nature of the event would have been overshadowed by the Left screaming, “They brought signs!! Oh my!”
why doesn’t Ed put his money where his mouth is and cut his salary to somewhere between $40,000 to $50,000, and give the rest of his salary to the janitors at MSNBC (who work much longer & harder them Ed does)
Please remove me from this ping list.
Thank you.
I dunno. Don’t know anything about him. Don’t watch his show. Really don’t give a crap about the psychos at MSNBC. Nobody watches them.
Maybe we should hold a “March for Beer and Snacks (Soda for the kids.)”
After all, don’t we have a right to happiness?
And “Beer and Snacks (Soda for the kids)” make a lot of people happy
It is up to the govt to provide this for us by taxing the wealthy who can afford more “Beer and Snacks (Soda for the kids)” than they can consume.
Snackers of the world unite!!!
is that an “Ed Head?”
A Pelosi voter no doubt.
Another example of your genius, quantim!
Nice work!
Didn’t the DNC just have a very public hissy fit because Fox News ran the address of John Kasich’s website while he was being interviewed? This Ed Show diatribe promotion whatever it is, I would say, is a tad more than that - out and out advocacy on a cable news network, in-kind contribution for the dems... where are the republicans? Where is the RNC - oh, I forgot, there busy in Delaware smearing Christine...
Great...from a bunch of a#$clowns who know nada to zilch about all three...
Yeah, marches! How could have we forgotten that surest way to create jobs!
Ed Schultz is a con artist. He is a fake. He doesn’t get good ratings anyways. Nobody watches him, for the most part unless your tuning in to see how inflammatory he gets. Had a temper tantrum recently at msnbc and yelled and shouted he would bring down the studio.
Doesn't look like Ed does much marching...
Jobs for
North Korea
Malaysia
Singapore
China
India
B U M P !
;-)
Ping
A thought...
Supporters March Against Obama’s Failed Policies
He managed to convince a reported 100,000 to 300,000 people to show up to listen to his nonsense, but you know what? It took the help of, let`s see, a number of billionaire investors to bus people, Sarah Palin to show up, Dick Armey`s FreedomWorks.
Ping!!!
Any obese blowhard who has constantly tell you how great he is, SDC!
The title of the March is interesting—Is he trying to out Beck, beck? I wonder how many jobs he will find for those on the march. If Soros pays them—maybe they will have a check for a days work on the march. Genn Beck would make a good VP better than our current clown.
Ed has discovered that if he mentions Glen Beck, he gets more attention. So....
Olbermann saved his show by attaching his name to O’Reilly.
Schultz is desperately clinging to Beck’s coattails.
MSNBC, instead of developing its own concepts, is shamelessly content with being the “monday morning quarterback” to it’s rival-but far more superior- network.
War of words? More like a gnat trying to fly up an elephant’s ass...
Every time Ed opens his big mouth he proves without a shadow of a doubt that he’s a horses ass and that liberals have no ideas.... Just hatred.
MSNBC has decided the only way they can get viewers is by bashing Beck. Being the anti-O’reilly didn’t do anything for Olbermann, but they’re so stupid they’re trying it again.
This is a ‘March of the Moochers’.
The Million Moocher March will be a real sight to behold.
LLS
Wow Ed! I thought your boy king was going take care of all that. With a libtard as president and libtards in control of both houses.....What’s the problem Ed?
Yes, because we all know that Detroit has been run by conservatives all these years. Sheesh.
He’s totally jealous of Beck. Ed’s hoping it will be his “Restore Ratings” rally.
