Ed Schultz Lurches From Panic to Incoherence Over Wisconsin Recall
News Buster.com ^ | June 4, 2012 | Jack Coleman

Posted on 06/04/2012 6:50:50 PM PDT by Kaslin

What a difference 48 hours makes in the barren wasteland known as Ed Schultz's mind.

Back on May 29, Schultz warned of giant flaming acorns falling from the sky if Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker prevailed in a June 5 recall election against Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, who was defeated by Walker in the 2010 gubernatorial race. (audio clips after page break)

sounding the alarm that a Walker victory could foreshadow President Obama's defeat in November, which in turn would usher in an era of permanent GOP control of the White House (audio) --

They are trying to set it up that if Mitt Romney gets elected, if Mitt Romney gets elected, there will never  be a Democratic president again in the history of the United States. The future is just, this is the way it's going to be. There'll never be a Democratic president in our lifetime again. And when I say in our lifetime, I'm talking about long, long, long, long, long time.

This is why Wisconsin's so important. The people of the country need to know that you can defeat it. And this in many respects is doing the country a favor, the way they're operating, the way they're lying, the way they're backing up the worst candidate, the worst governor in the country, his record's horrendous, and who he's a puppet to.

So that's why this is so important. They're trying to make it so Barack Obama doesn't get re-elected and no Democrat ever will be elected into the White House.

"This is why Wisconsin's so important" -- Walker wins, Obama in turn loses, and it's the end of the world as we know it

Two days later, Schultz was crooning a different tune. More accurately, he was part of a liberal chorus singing the same line, that of Walker winning in Wisconsin hardly mattering at all. Silly you, why would you have ever thought otherwise? (audio)

I get a kick out of the Twitter world 'cause they're working me over saying, oh, it's going to be fun to watch Eddie, he'll be crying in his beer, whatever. No I'm not! No, no, there's no downside about this recall any way, shape or form. Obviously we want Walker to be thrown out because he's a radical and he's not good for America. But look at the other side. They are throwing millions of dollars at a guy who is on the verge of being indicted for a felony. Now, how are they going to feel, win lose or draw, when this happens?

Two years into a fishing expedition by a partisan district attorney whose office is filled with like-minded Democrats, who'd think an indictment of Walker would have happened by now. Rest assured, if it never does, Schultz will claim "no downside" to that either. Whatever it takes for Schultz to save face, regardless of the contortions that ensue.

It would be fun to watch this blithering idiot get so worked that he has a heart attack right on screen.

Remember to send your support and love tomorrow to Wisconsin Governor, Scott Walker. The recall election initiated by big labor and radical liberal activists is not only one of the most petty and negligent, but one of the most expensive in history. I commend Mr. Walker for standing up for his beliefs, the welfare of those Americans who foot the bill, despite the incessant threats of Union thugs. I have no problem respecting the right of workers to organize, but it is less and less a movement born out of necessity - working conditions, discrimination, unfair compensation - and more and more a means of holding businesses and state governments hostage to unscrupulous politics and absurd demands.

Instead of adopting a no nonsense bargaining mantra, unions have become the puppets of the Democratic party; selling out the liberties of their brethren, the cornerstone of America’s blessings, for the anti-capitalist platform of leftist twits who will stop at nothing to conceal the Constitution - the rights of individual, taxpaying Americans - beneath the usurping umbrella of Big Government. In other words, they don’t want you to think for yourself, they want your blind allegiance, another bullet in the gun of coercion to fulfill their egocentric agenda, to empty your wallets in the name of corporate envy and egalitarian excuses; which has nothing to do with what’s best for you or this country. No More! God Bless Scott Walker and may his victory tomorrow be a beacon of strength for millions living under the boot of Big Brother: aka, liberal fascism!

I'm not a CheeseHead, so don't know.

After seeing Special Ed live a few years back, I'm on his case as being a Commie Dog Slayer.

Sgt. Schultz is a former North Dakota sportscaster who
“got religion” and converted (’cause of of his more recent wife) to the Dark Side of Talk Radio. He shot and killed his dog while hunting, so is >> worse than Dick Cheney.

MSNBC Host: We Ought to Rip Out Cheney’s Heart & Kick It Around (Audio)

Posted on February 26, 2010

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

ED SCHULTZ (01:59): I just want all of you to know that I get my entertainment through NewsBusters. (laughs, then in mincing voice)

How dare [we] Democrats make fun of Dick Cheney’s heart problems and turn it into a political football. (back to normal voice, to the extent possible) I can just hear some little weasel who’s writing that at NewsBusters. You’re my entertainment.

Bozell, Bozell and his bozo crew. You’re damn right, Dick Cheney’s heart’s a political football. We ought to rip it out and kick it around and stuff it back in him. I’m glad he didn’t tip over. He is the new poster child for health care in this country.

If I were Ed’s ex-wife I’d be concerned with him hitting me.

Sobered up? Doubt it. That Kool-aid is pretty strong.

I don’t think he really means it. He was a Conservative Radio host, until he found out that he could make as much money and have 1/10 the ratings as a liberal talk show host. Besides, his new wife turned him onto to be a radical leftist...new wives tend to ruin otherwise good men, like Barry Goldwater and Benedict Arnold.

Hey Ed! Has Maureen lifted the restraining order? What is in your divorce records that you sealed so many years after the divorce and you were about to go national? How much did that cost you?

Make sure the tank is topped off on the Schultz Short Bus Express because Special Ed will be putting a lot of miles on it tomorrow.

This leftist aka progressive ed is a complete freak. Stalin, Mao, and Hitler would be proud of him. He has no concept of rights. I have watched his show a few times. And more then once was to many. He makes you laugh. Until you start seeing. He thinks he is right.

There'll never be a Democratic president in our lifetime again. And when I say in our lifetime, I'm talking about long, long, long, long, long time.

I'm confused Ed. If BO is so great, why wouldn't he and all the dems running after his term is finished win hands-down?

This gives me additional assurance that Walker wins.
