Ed Schultz will ask Senator Edwards what he & Senator Clinton were talking about....

[snowbear]

~ ~ ~

...on his program this coming Monday. Big Eddie said he's been swamped with e-mails talking about it..

..and since John & Elizabeth will be on his show this Monday, he said he'll have him clarify it for everyone.



He also said that CNN phoned him and asked for permission to run the audio of his Barbara Boxer interview where she spoke of Impeachment.

Eddie told them to "have at it!"

Per Big Ed, Jack Cafferty will run the audio and use it for one of his questions today.




And finally ~ Big Eddie gave major kudos today to all of the people who made him see the light on the topic of Impeachment.

Along with contributing his turnaround to his listeners, a few elected officials, and a couple of other names..

he also mentioned ===((drumroll))=== ... "the good folks over at the website Democratic Underground"

His listeners have either mentioned us on his show... or perhaps he's peeking in over here from time to time?

Either way, he added our group in the list of those who have made him see the light! ~~~~

1. Its because their scared of Mike Gravel. n/t

[snowbear]

2. I just don't see Edwards or Clinton as the types to try and reduce the debate size...

... by seeing if there's a way to oust the lower tier candidates.

Nah.

I'm guessing that Senator Edwards will have an explanation that absolutely NONE of us has even thought about yet!

I'm hoping that he doesn't say that "private conversations are between the two of us" ..but I don't think he will.

Ed said he plans to let him know how many times he's been contacted -- and how much chatter there is on the web regarding this.

For all we know.. Edwards was just asking her if he could hitch a ride back to the airport with her staff or something..

And then again.. maybe even before Monday rolls around, he'll answer the question on his blog? Who knows...

4. I think the correct answer is...

Our polling and fund-raising status gave us swelled heads for three seconds but those balloons have been punctured, oh my yes.

[aquart]

3. Good. They damn well should answer it.

It was a rotten, anti-democratic remark and needs groveling.

[Cameron27]

6. Do you really think that if Edwards and Clinton were

talking about cutting out other candidates, either of them will admit it? IF it's true, the spin's already being spun by now.

[aquart]

8. So don't ask because you think you know they'll lie?

Oh, charming.

So we should never ask Bush anything which is what he's been saying all along.

[Cameron27]

15. No, of course ask, just expect spin,

then keep on asking until you get around the spin.

[snowbear]

7. Except isn't that kinda-sorta assuming what they were discussing?

~~~

In any event.. if nothing comes out before Monday, I'm sure someone will put his response to the question on here this Monday.

[aquart]

9. You lost me.

[snowbear]

10. I was just asking...

If we say something like..

"It was a rotten, anti-democratic remark"

Aren't we assuming that we already know what they were talking about?

That's all.

[snowbear]

5. P.S. ..the Barbara Boxer clip and question is supposed to air @ 5:00 EST ..

According to the Cafferty File's section on the CNN Situation Room's site..

5 p.m.: "Do you agree with Senator Barbara Boxer that impeachment of President Bush should remain "on the table"?

You can still write in if you feel like responding -------> http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/situation.room/

Maybe Jen here will write in? She has an awesome record of getting her responses on the air!! ~~~

11. I know I have reference DU

to Big Eddie many times. As a matter of fact..... He was right behind DU in the September D.C Protest March. He was across the street at Starbucks from DU Group which was at Cosi that morning before the March...I know because Emily, my daughter and I walked over and had a cup of coffee with Ed and Wendy.....O8)

[snowbear]

13. Too cool liberalnurse! ~~

I heard Wendy was AWESOME!

The brains behind the outfit and all that good stuff ..

Isn't she a nurse also? I thought I heard that on his show.

[liberalnurse]

16. Yes she is......so we connected right away.

She worked psyche and some correctional/community heath nursing. Her and Ed work harder than any Progressive Radio Host in the business....24/7 impact. I adore this team.

[snowbear]

12. Kicking this thread for ,,,

... "jsamuel" who stated:

"actually, this is mostly localized to DU"

How so?

If that were the case, the story wouldn't be mentioned all over the AP by so many different sources.

It sounds like Congressman Kucinich is quite upset. But the question to me is still.. "about WHAT"?

They could've been talking about car-pooling for all we know.

I don't see any mention in all of those AP stories that mention "DU".

[OnionPatch]

14. About him peeking over here....

I think if he peeks here too much, he wouldn't speak of us in such glowing terms. Seems to me that Ed gets accused of being a fake every time his name gets mentioned here. Maybe people have changed their opinion of him recently? I've always liked him. He may not lean as far left as me but we need a voice in rural America and people there can relate to him.

[checks-n-balances]

17. Agreed, and I'm glad he's one of the "biggest" (no pun intended) voices

we have over the airwaves. I've been listening to him almost as long as his show is old and he has grown in his understanding of issues when he's able to get all the facts.

The best thing is that he does get the ears of many disaffected & disgusted GOPers who have had enough. He may disagree with some Dems at time, but he disagrees w/right wingers pretty much every time & gives it right back to 'em.

Go Big Eddie!

[NCarolinawoman]

18. Yes, if you live in a reddish state he is the #1 guy you want out there on the radio.

Unless you're only interested in preaching to the choir.

[Adelante]

19. That's the thing

Preaching to the choir is big here, unfortunately.
