Suggesting someone beat up a U.S. senator is not "hate speech" according to this man.
Three full days after he wondered why no one had punched Joe Lieberman ("Traitor Joe," as he calls him), Ed Schultz of MSNBC's The Ed Show insisted no one on the Left had ever defamed the distinguished senator from Connecticut. Last night, Schultz asked former Republican Congressman Ernest Istook about Democratic infighting over the health care bill. Istook, now a Distinguished Fellow at the Heritage Foundation, replied things had gotten so bad that "if conservatives said the things about liberals that liberals are saying about each other now, we would be accused of using hate speech." This sent the easily agitated Schultz into a lather:
Now, Ernest, you're saying the Left is doing some hate speech. Now, where's the hate speech on Joe Lieberman? Come on!
Big Ed could begin with his video library from this week....

It’s amazing that all you have to be is a violent, psycho Socialist a$$hole to get a tv show these days.
He's boring and uses all the predictable liberal cliches. His audience ratings are dying. Reckon he thinks he has to spice things up a bit.
This individual is scum of the earth! And people wonder why I will not be friends with Leftards, or even be polite with them - They are to a man or woman worthless parasites and traitors to the republic...
This is why I pray for civil war - I have my own personal proscription list and scores to settle with the Left.
Bring it, Ed. I’m pretty sure our guys can handle all you left wing wussies.
He has a show because he IS a violent, psycho Socialist a$$hole.
Oh, sorry, its the Ed Show and not E.D. Show. Nevermind.
They say they want to start something, but nothing happens.
All talk, no action.
He could use some intellectual viagra and some other elixir to swell his sagging ratings.
Ernes snapped that @ss wipe like a stick, He knew what He was working, and just kicked Him down the road.
I do similar things here to libs, Its easy and fun! They are always so wound up and pissed off.
“They say they want to start something, but nothing happens.”
Yep, been stamping their feet and screaming for ages, I’m about ready for them to charge.... they’ve got one coming.
Wouldn’t it be great to be able to beat the crap out of a liberal, and be able to say that it was self-defense?
If punching out those with opposing views becomes acceptable, I’d like to be at the head of the line at the MSNBC studios, so I can make the rounds.
Neal Boortz used to call this guy a friend, though they disagreed on many topics, but he's said on the air that he doesn't understand what's happened with him, and now will not associate with him at all, and is disgusted with his rantings.

It’s fun and easy to tweak liberals.
I do it every chance I get.
If he gets to punch Joe, then I want to punch al franken!
I listen to this clown quite a bit on the radio.
He says he used to be a conservative but then saw the liberal light.
What a fool!

Yep, it bothers me that they can physically attack people at a rally or mount a political attack with little or no repercussion. When these actions result in a response similar to poking a fire ant hill with a stick, they will stop.
This is an amazing world we live in, full of surprises. Some good, some bad. What we are seeing is the left-wing fringe element realizing that they aren’t going to be able to implement their entire socialist agenda. There is a lot of resistance, and even their own party is splitting into factions. Just a month ago, after the results in NY-23 the left-wingers were celebrating the death of conservatism. Mark Twain might say reports of the death of conservatism are “greatly exaggerated.”
I’m sure recent events have come as a real shock to them.
Between the failure of the public option, the possible failure of the entire health care bill, public opposition to the closure of Gitmo and the terrorist trials in New York, continued 10 percent unemployment despite the much heralded economic stimulus bill, and on top of it all came Climategate and the failure of the Copenhagen summit conference, the left-wing fringe has had some unpleasant surprises lately.
No wonder they hate Lieberman so very, very much.
