   Ed Schultz is a joke! I had the ill pleasure of meeting Ed Schultz when I lived in Fargo at a local restaurant/lounge. Schultz is a big mouth with a ego even bigger.Schultz is a person that don’t give a crap about anybody but himself.Schultz thinks everyone should get down on their knee’s and kiss his a$$ when he’s entering a room. I remember Schultz would walk into the lounge and he would expect the “Norm from Cheers” greeting,he wanted every one to yell “Ed.”
   Ratboy,Schultz is down right one of the rudest people I ever met. Schultz has always left a negative impression on my wife and myself. A few years ago my yell at me “you have to come see this ,it’s Ed Schultz on Msnbc he has his own show.”I thought ‘talk about scrapping the bottom of the barrel,what could they be thinking.’After looking at his tv ratings he still a bottom dweller.

   I have no desire to meet him other than telling him to his face what I think of him.
   So lets see, he is “the advocate for organized labor” but he owns a non-union construction company. He is for the American worker but he owns a fishing lodge in Canada (I guess there is no good fishing in the United States) and he is for the “regular Joe” the “Common Worker” but……………he is a 1 percenter! Like I said…………IDIOT!

   yES, GM went through a bankruptcy. And In doing so took $4000 of my retirement funds and gave it to the unions and ceo’s. My stock became worthless, and then the go out and sell new shares.

   How would it be, If I owed 50,000 mortgage on my house. Declared backruptcy, so I owed nothing,
   and then kept the house and sold it for $50,000

   You can’t do that. You did not contribute to his political campaign. You only count for one may be two votes, that $25,000 per vote. The net cost for the UAW support and UAW member votes was a lot less.

   I think that Erin Burnet Outfront got higher ratings because she had the woman on the cover of Time Magazine on her show last night. The 7:00pm show had higher ratings but the 11:00pm show was lower.

   I think Erin’s better ratings last night resulted from the breaking JPMorgan news. My guess is that many of her former CNBC audience tuned in thinking she would give major time to the story (as I assume she did).

   Ed Schultz is doing just fine. Only the right wing have ear and nose bleeds from hearing a man on the left speak firm and with conviction about the wrongs and lies and evils of the extreme right wing. I would never put him in league with the lies and hate of Rush GB it Hannity ever.

   Scott Walker is in trouble over his video “divide and conquer” will hopefully cost him his job. Fire his a$$ Wisconsin!

   Suiko and DB hopefully you can find a peaceful dialog soon. I again apologize to you both for all the mean posts and insults from the past and think that you both are intelligent individuals that can perhaps read each others post with less criticism as I do when i read both of yours or when my head is not up my own a$$.
   I hope you both have fantastic weekends planned!! Go to usnretiredx2 pool party and have a beer

    @lbles

    I sometimes wonder if southern states or any state put interracial marriage up for a vote how certain african american folks would feel about that??

    Many examples can be said. But equality means equality!!! Freedom of religion and freedom from religion!!!

    That could also be true. The media is really trying to beat the JPMorgan story to death even though they do not know anything more than what J. Dimon said.
    When they finally figure out what happened at JPM the media probably will not reporting anything.

    Jeff, I appreciate the more civilized Jeff. I admit the latest stuff between suiko and I was not pleasant. His implication that in NC we marry our cousins should have been ignored but it was so off topic and added nothing to any argument I kind of went off. I will try to avoid such topics in the future but will not stop letting suiko know how I feel about his posts. Since you and dd asked I will avoid the gross topics. I apologize for going off the deep end on this one.

    Jeff, I don’t think most African Americans like their struggle compared to gays. Not the same thing. Not a sin to be African American.

14. Jeff

    Posted May 11, 2012 at 8:39 PM

    @db the gays do not feel that they are a sin either, as do a growing number of people. The fact that a black person couldn’t marry a white person because of skin color is quite simular. Its dumb!! There was a time where being black was a form of a sin(Mormons) or just being black made you some form of a second class citizen. Thank God that has ended, or has it?? Gay people are people that deserve equal rights…. Period!

    @hillbilly. I did research and i read in 1996 comments made by Barack Obama that supports your posts. You are correct!! That would qualify as a flip flop!

    His implication that in NC we marry our cousins.

    …………I did not make any such implication. I was stating facts that people in NC CAN marry each other, yet gays can’t….seems kind of ass backwards….please, if you would stop and understand things you would not get into so much trouble…..seriously, not even attacking you. It’s a FACT that people in NC can marry each other, no one has a problem with that in that state, but “we gotta stop them gays from getting married!!!”. You make it seem like I said “well people in NC just up and marry their cousins!!!”…..

    What happen to the Facebook thingy? I’ve noticed other sites are having the same problem. Only 2 people in the square/like box. Maybe it’s my computer. Any body else seeing that?
