A. Sullivan Puting Words In Ed Schultz's Mouth On CNN's LK
Edited on Thu Oct-12-06 08:25 PM by stopbush
Ed said that the Foley story was "a gay story and a pedophilia story." Sullivan (and some woman) jumped on
Ed for making a "disgraceful connection" between homosexuality and pedophilia.

But that isn't what Ed said. He's saying that those are two separate issues.

The Foley story IS a gay story NOW because the Rs and their apologists have MADE THE (erroneous) CONNECTION and now have the
long knives out to bash the gays within their ranks.

Sullivan could have said that Ed was drawing a connection between being gay and being a LYING R Speaker of the House
who didn't protect children, but he didn't.

1. Sullivan should commit suicide
out of the shame he continues to rain down on himself.

3. Hold on there a sec. Sullivan is so against the neo-cons he's voting dem.
He said it on his blog. I thought we wanted to attract people from the dark side over to the light. Lets welcome them instead of suggesting they off themselves.

6. Oh go re-read the OP.
Sullivan still doesn't get it and if he votes Democratic it will be a temporary condition.

2. Agreed. But Eddy could have made his point a little clearer.
Edited on Thu Oct-12-06 09:01 PM by Mika
By forming his comment in the way that he did he did open himself up to criticism.

He did clarify on follow up, but his original comment was a bit clumsy.

8. It's hard to make clear statements when LK overbooks the guests
and has 4-6 pundits competing for airtime, especially when one of them is Dennis Prager who
is a master at slowtalking and running out the clock.

Sullivan jumped on Ed and when Ed tried to clarify they just talked over him.

I did like it when Ed asked Sullivan why he was a Republican when they were so anti-gay.

5. It doesn't come on here for another 30 minutes.. ..Who is..
"Sullivan"?

Does Big Eddie make a come-back from that one slip? He's usually pretty outspoken and knows how to kick rightie ass.

~~~~~~~ guyz!

10. Ed worded his point VERY poorly.
When I heard Ed say "A gay story and a pedophilia story" i just rolled by eyes, listened to the first few faux-outraged remarks of Sullivan, and turned the channel.

Needless to say it didn't improve my image of Ed. He still seems like a reed in the wind, only playing a liberal when it suits him.
