Ed Schultz was front and center for JK today

Anyone hear the show?

If not, you'll be able to download the podcast soon right here: http://www.wegoted.com/podcasting/archive.asp

He played a clip of his speech on the senate floor over and over and over, stuck up for him, and had some great exchanges with callers, particularly one with a self-described "out lesbian" from Oregon. About which I won't go into detail, in view of hostile lurkers.

It was bracing. To say the least.

2. A lot of people in GD are pissed because

They said he was against a filibuster, and because he had Dorgan on who was probably for Alito? Whatsa goin' on?

3. He was absolutely

thrilled by JK's floor speech today, said he was "kicking ass" (his phrase), and basically said that JK had answered the call! He said, more or less, if Kerry didn't do it for you today, what the hell are you looking for???

[WildEyedLiberal]

5. Hmm, dunno what they heard in GD then!

Then again, one never knows :P

4. It was Conrad and he said he was against the filibuster.

Schultz was not, at least while I was listening.

6. Maybe they're conflating Conrad and Schultz

Which is quite dumb.

9. Eddie sounds like Will Pitt. Wants the fillibuster

appreciates the fight happening, but thinks it's dead anyway.

But yeah, I heard him play the Kerry soundbite too. I appreicated it, since that was the first time I heard it. Kerry sounded good. Passionate.

7. That's great!

Time to send him another big thank you.
