In One Month, Ed Schultz Goes From Dove To Superhawk: Don't Rule Out Boots on Ground!
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 09/10/2014 4:22:13 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

What happened, Ed? Just one month ago, citing a variety of concerns, Schultz declared [video] that there should be "no military intervention at all" in Iraq.

Suddenly, it seems, Schultz has gone superhawk. On his MSNBC show this evening, just hours before President Obama lays out his anti-ISIS plan, Schultz said that we should not rule out boots on the ground, and should not outsource the fighting to other countries.

View the video here.

“Democrat war good
Republican war bad”

I think that pretty well sums things up.

“Boots on the ground” are needed now that the Saudis feel threatened. Follow the money.

HAHA no worries, you know how many times Ive done that..their instead of there..trust me I got the burn LOL..but your right..they act like ISIS is something different and more dangerous than anything we have seen before..like Saddam cutting off people’s fingers and burning people alive in mass graves was something not worth mentioning..this is the way it is, the media will do anything and I mean ANYTHING to protect Obama, even if it means putting boots on the ground in Iraq, it will go against everything they stand for but they will do it to protect their dear leader

.... This entire administration and MSM Propaganda Dept of the Democrat Party are now working off of a script. With his approval numbers plummeting affect the Narcissist-in-Chief's ego has become so affected that he probably ordered the Dems to draft a winning script of talking points for him and his administration to vomit out to help bolster his approval levels and improve their standing.

....They probably noted that Bush's approval went up when he talked tough so are attempting to do the same. Unfortunately since their are only acting out a script .... their hearts aren't able to portray convincing characters.

.... they don't even realize that they sound like Barney Fife trying to sound tough ... and it is resonating as such on the local and world stages.

No parachute. He might use it.

Unless he is pro-2nd Amendment, don’t give him a gun.

I have experienced trying to get into the brain of a family with issues and it was not easy but it was enlightening. still get headaches thinking about it.

As for our military, their adrenalin was kicking in with every news cast. Moms on the other hand, exhaling. The problem is the ROE and that the administration does not have their backs. Good thing they have each other because with the officer purge...shaking my head.

And in two weeks when the emotion of the moment fades and Dancing With the Stars is in full swing, he like much of the country will suddenly decide it’s costing too much and taking too long and not worth the trouble and demand an end to the fighting right away.....

Oh, pleeeeease — Ed Schultz has gone from dove to super hawk? It doesn't matter any how as only two people still watch MSNBC.
