EdSchultz-PunchOutLieberman

Sen. Joe Lieberman opposes the current health care bill, so MSNBC's Ed Schultz has a solution: punch him out. On last night's episode of The Ed Show, Schultz asked Democratic Senator and way-too-frequent guest Sherrod Brown, D-OH:

What is the feeling towards Joe Lieberman? I mean how do you, you know, go into a room without punching the guy out after what he's done to the progressive movement in this country? I mean, that's how I think a lot of people feel. What attitude, what attitude — is he still just a beloved, friendly, fraternal senator, or is he a jerk in the room?

The courageous Brown, after hearing the violent tirade against his colleague, replied:

Does this bozo know how offensive it is to say a Senator ought to be “punched out”?

yeah big dumbass ed. I listen to him on my drive home cuz I know what hannity will say anyway. he is calling all progressives to remove Blanche Lincoln. I sent him a note that I was all for that, us conservatives were trying for years. Looks like about 9 GOP candidates vying for her seat. Anyway, I listened to him bloviate about quickly the private sector can get things done, ie if you go the boss of clear channel and ask for a radio spot he can give you an answer and have it aired in a week or so but things dont happen so quickly in government so many steps to go thru. I have no idea where he was going with that because he is a big government proponent. oh and how he spent about 30min one day saying he wasnt going to cover sarah palin had his callers call in to ask if it was a good idea or not. btw didnt this guy usta be a conservative talker?

yes the delusional thing is Ed thinks the american people want this bill...or at least that is what he is telling them. He said that obama should play chicago politics and actively work to defeat democrats that dont play along. Hey Ed good idea, i really hope it works.I will sit in the audience and cheer him on.

Ohio plans to get rid of Brown in 2012 so I guess you could say we intend the same thing for him? ;)

Schultz is a stupid thug even by MSNBC standards, and that’s saying something. Schultz is a former college football announcer and former Republican who found that his stupidity wouldn’t be a handicap if he became a RAT. He’s well known for barroom brawls and once shooting his own dog.

This thuggery is a growing part of RAT politics, and I don’t mean just the union goons, but the actual politicians. Look at some of the cartoonish thugs who actually hold congressional seats and appear on MSNBC. Their latest hero is that nut from Florida (via NYC), but Brown, Whitehead, and others are in there talking trash too.

I’d like it if Ed Shultz tried to punch me out. I’d love it, in fact.

It's all for show -- No matter how poorly the Democrat Party treats him, no matter how much he rants about fiscal conservatism, no matter how many promises he knows are lies that are made to him by Democrats to win his vote, Joe Lieberman will, in the end, side with the Democrats.

I think it's because he just cannot bring himself to side with what he has been taught all his life to despise ... those "heartless" Republicans.)

Gee, I think that’s called threatening a public official which I also believe is against the law.

Poor example. That Senator (Sumner) was a grandstanding demogogue and coward from Massachusetts (ever heard of one of those ?) insulting an aging and infirm beloved and well-respected member of the body who wasn’t present, and he was wanting to get attacked so he could play the victim, and that House member was a relative of the man he viciously insulted. It’s one of the most misrepresented incidents in the history of Congress.

Not at all.
..
Dums love violence,interesting Douglas suggested his death if he didn’t stop speaking against slavery.
...........

Senator Charles Sumner Delivers a Fiery Senate Speech Denouncing Slavery
On May 19, 1856, Senator Charles Sumner of Massachusetts, a prominent voice in the anti-slavery movement, delivered an impassioned speech denouncing the compromises that helped perpetuate slavery and led to the current confrontations in Kansas. Sumner began by denouncing the Missouri Compromise, the Kansas-Nebraska Act, and the concept of popular sovereignty, in which residents of new states could decide whether to make slavery legal.

Continuing his speech the next day, Sumner, singled out three men in particular: Senator Stephen Douglas of Illinois, a major proponent of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, Senator James Mason of Virginia, and Senator Andrew Pickens Butler of South Carolina.

Butler, who had recently been incapacitated by a stroke and was recuperating in South Carolina, was held to particular ridicule by Sumner. Sumner said that Butler had taken as his mistress “the harlot, slavery.” Sumner also referred to the South as an immoral place for allowing slavery, and he mocked South Carolina.

Listening from the back of the Senate chamber, Stephen Douglas reportedly said, “that damned fool will get himself killed by some other damned fool.”

Sumner’s impassioned case for a free Kansas was met with approval by northern newspapers, but many in Washington criticized the bitter and mocking tone of his speech.

A Southern Congressman Takes Offense
One southerner, Preston Brooks, a member of the House of Representatives from South Carolina, was particularly incensed. Not only had the fiery Sumner ridiculed his home state, but Brooks was the nephew of Andrew Butler, one of Sumner’s targets.

Your conclusions are in error, sir. Congressman Brooks didn’t challenge Sumner to a duel because he was no gentleman, and the proper response was a thorough walloping one would give to a sniping cur or common drunkard. Sumner violated Senate decorum first with his vicious slander of Sen. Butler.

Sen. Douglas neither did “suggest his death”, he was mere witness to Sumner’s vicious slander, and had the common sense to conclude Sumner was a damn fool and writing a check his butt couldn’t cash (which had nothing to do with slavery, and everything to do with Sumner wanting to grab headlines and act the sainted martyr, just like any demogogue liberal today — personal opportunism).

In any event, there is next to no comparison between that event and Ed Schultz’s psychotic ravings. If anything, Schultz is closer to Sumner in viciousness, and Lieberman ought to wallop him with a gutta-percha cane.
