Ed Schultz taking it to warmonger McCain
Big Eddie ON FIRE on his radio show today.

Leading the way once again, Ed Schultz just stated that he's pivoting off Obama v. Clinton (old news in his view) and going to start spending his time pounding on McCain who is a warmonger in his book and no, he's not backing down.

Says he's been booked all over the teevee today and he will take the opportunity to expose McCain facts on the war, his temper, and turning his back on Veterans.

Go Ed!

4. Thank you Eddie for busting the media's 'go soft' on McCain
strategy. Keep at it Eddie.
Some days I don't like Ed, but today he is on it.
Let us hope other talkers will pick up this meme and the 'straight talker' will be exposed for all to see.
And folks - write some letters to the editor.

5. Go Big Eddie!
THIS is what all liberal commentators should be doing now. To focus only on Obama vs Clinton is not helping us, but rather helping the GOP.

7. Agree
McCain is getting a free pass on his policies, his temper, his increasingly frequent senior moments and his Bush-league gaffes and mis-statements.

Time to take the fight to the real opponent: McCain

Time to fight against the real threat: Bush term three.

9. Big Ed is talking about
a T-shirt he might sell (with proceeds going to veterans)
It will have a picture of McSames jaw-clenched ugly mug and the letters:
WMD
War Mongering Dude

Right on Ed. Taking on the MSM and it's coddling of the war monger will have it's risks.
Ed says he's not backing down.
Sure hope he doesn't get censored by not being invited anymore as a guest on the TV talk shows.
He needs to get this message out.

10. O'Slimey was bitching about Ed today on his radio show
Saying Ed was just like that other radio guy yelling Obama's full name before introducing McCain in Ohio. So Ed is getting attention from all sides now.

15. Ed responds to that by saying warmonger is an issue label not
an attack on a person's individual heritage.

Says McCain earned warmonger fair and square with documented stances on the Iraq war and Iran.

Here's hoping that Ed helps to change the conversation from Obama v. Clinton to what a scary bad president McCain would be.

11. LOL! He pledges to call McCain a warmonger on his next 3 TV appearances.
Anyone catch what shows he said he was going to be on? He said he will also bring up how McCain has not supported veterans' funding. Good. I'm sick of hearing about St. McCain the war hero. Doesn't seem that McCain cares too much about other war heroes, does it?

13. On his web site
He says he will be on:
Fox News at 5 pm ET
MSNBC David Gregory at 6pm ET
CNN Campbell Brown at 8pm ET
He will be calling McSame a war-monger on all 3 shows!

14. Exactly. Obama takes the high road
While Eddie gets in for body-blows.

We can give as good as we get.

It's about time progressives shed the pansy stereotype and get on offense.
