Ed also share he believes Mr. Cheney WANTS America to be attacked again....to make it a political gain...........OMG!

At the end, he calls Cheney nothing but a coward sitting on the sidelines! Damn.that's true.

I watched this last night on his show, The Ed Show on MSNBC and found it to feel damn good! Ed goes on the record with all thoughts we have shared about the republican agenda, Cheney and how we know the game they are playing. He calls out Cheney too.

Amazing for media reporting...Oh, what a difference a day makes.

No Youtube link...........just MSNBC

Watch the entire clip!

"Cheney Who?"

3. AND, the MISSING POINT
If Bush would have listened to his damn CIA and 53 other sources, 9/11 would have never happened in the first place. You don't need torture, you just need a brain in your head.

4. Ed is connecting the dots, putting the time-line all together!
In the video clip, he concludes with Senator Leahey discussing prosecution.....yea, Ed is going for Vader!

5. He said what all Dems should have been saying since 2001.....
"It happened on your watch, Bush, Cheney and the Republic Party."

You were repeatedly warned and did nothing. Didn't even call the airlines warning them to increase vigilance.

7. I still don't know why the Democrats didn't fight
when these events occurred.....just guessing they wanted to let them make their bed first.......take over Congress then do it then as we are beginning to see unfold...

I sense they all were frustrated as we were at the time.......I picked up on that feeling by listening to Senator Leahey in the clip.

Ed Schultz takes the media to a higher level of accountability......I'm empowered thru Ed! Ed speaks for me now.

6. I'm glad Ed called out the hypocrisy in the Republican Party.
We know who was in charge in the days leading up to 9/11.

We know who got the memos that should have been enough for any reasonable, responsible person to take action. And they had more than a month to do it.

Bush, Cheney, and the Republican Party are the ones who are weak. They let America down, they allowed the terrorists to strike through their neglect, or intent, depending on which side you want to butter your bread.

To have such people accuse Barack Obama of being weak is laughable at best, and it only serves to remind us of who the weak ones truly are. Facts matter, Dick. And no amount of hyperbole will change them.

8. This clip should win a prize.
Edited on Wed Apr-22-09 03:43 PM by VeraAgnes
I've been waiting 6 years for this at least! We need one more recommendation for the Greatest Page.

I think Ed has earned this one.

9. Leahy, about turning the page & moving on: "I like to read the page first before turning it."
I saw Ed's show yesterday for the first time & thought he's very good.

11. Ed's that switchblade in the backalley that we have lacked for so long
and desperately needed. The Republicans have so many--Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck, Coulter...

12. Cheneyburton should have kept his stupid mouth shut.


Instead he went on all these RW Media Hatemonger shows whining about this and that. And now
he has tipped over a hornet's nest and they are all about to sting him on his pasty white ass.

Karma can be a real bitch some times.

14. No re-run for Ed yet.
The link is from last nights show. He did a follow-up tonight too. I only got snipes of tonights show but I did record it and will what the entire show later.

Did you watch the clip in my OP link? It's about 8 minutes and 100% worth the time.

20. Maybe we should write in to MSNBC with that question?!
I rarely get to watch because of my work schedule, and I'm sure there are lots of us out there in that situation who'd watch the reruns. I'm so glad the network reruns the others (as opposed to those horrible doc-blocks they used to run after 10:00). But even if they had to rerun him at 12 or 1 a.m., that's better than nothing. They run Tweety at least 3 times every evening/night.

That's great that so many people have gone from skeptical about Ed (before his show ever aired) to being supportive after watching. He rarely let me down as a radio listener, he's vastly grown as talk show host, and I find him & what I learn from his show very empowering.

Go Big Eddie!!

17. Yesterday, I think he called him a coward and draft dodger.
I remember he kicked him in the nuts pretty hard at the very beginning of his show. Loved it!

18. He's right, you know.
I seem to recall both Nightline and Stuff magazine having specials on the liklihood of a terrorist attack involving airplanes well before 9/11 happened. If THEY could speculate about it, why couldn't the Cheney admin?

I'm not a 9/11 truther but I see their point sometimes. Darth Cheney wanted a tragedy to milk and Mr. Schultz has called him out on both counts, past and present.

What is Cheney thinking? If we get hit, it points back to his admin because it was UNDER HIS WATCH that Islamic terrorism exploded and was partially funded by ELEMENTS WITHIN HIS OFFICE! He has provided more aid to the enemy than the Sheiks have!

Republicans/neocons are worse than Al Qaeda and Darth Cheney is exhibit A in the case against them.
