Podesta on Ed Schultz (Ed smacks down Schumer, see below)

[Leopolds Ghost]

Asked about Schumer remark. Answer:

We need to face the reality of situation at present.

Center for American Progress (his group) has a new position
paper. Among the subjects.

We need to get troups out of there so we can refocus our resources on the War on Terrorism.

"We have created a magnet for terrorism in Iraq and we need to leave enough assets in the region (Iraq) to deal with that."

Something about leave enough troops in there to guard the embassies
(contradicts the above statement)

Compares Bush White House to Nixon: Nothing is happening in Washington, they have gone to ground

Talking about Harriet now.

Edit: See reply on Ed's conversation with a Schumer/judo supporter.

1. So, Left Talk Radio sets the pace....

for Democrats to come out of the wood shed and speak out against this crime family. May I take a quote form dear Martha, "It's a good thing"!

Ed has been a real champion for setting the pace. Thank you Big Eddie!

2. What a thought-jumble of nonsense.

get out, stay in, war on terra, blah blah blah.

What exactly are the victory conditions for the war on terra?

When are our Opposition Party 'leaders' going to stand up and denounce the insanity?

3. OH, SNAP! Ed just put the smack down on the Schumer/Kerry'04 argument

"THERE WOUDN'A BEEN A VOTE! No WMDs. No Ballistic missiles. No evidence for war. No reason to go to war! 2,000 deaths for nothing!"

This in response to a Schumer supporter defending the "thoughtful" approach that the vote for IWR was a vote for inspections, not war.

If only Kerry had listened to Big Ed, not that phony populist Shrum!

Big Ed also pointed out when the guy said "the argument for voting for IWR is..."

"You can't explain that in the media! You can't make that argument on TV. The answer has to be no."
