Am waiting for slobby Limbaugh apology as-well?

Ed definitely wouldn’t have extended Greta the same courtesy but that’s because he’s Ed Schultz. Just like how what he said isn’t shocking because he’s Ed Schultz. He’s the typical angry, loud-mouthed, name-calling lefty that you find all over MSNBC & elsewhere.

For context, this from the woman that has repeatedly done glowing, positive interviews with rapist Mike Tyson about how good a person he really is. So in Greta’s world, Schultz has to look like a saint.

Greta has zero credibility on stuff like this given her full force media love embrace of a convicted rapist.

Having watched Ed through the years I doubt he has. I’ll believe he’s a sincere person when he unseals the records of him beating his first wife in Fargo, ND.

This is just one minor incident of Name Calling by this puffed up
fool Shultz. If MSNBC suspended him and the rest of his ilk there for every
insult they throw out about every Conservative Woman none off them would
ever be working.
Give me a Break.!
Shit, Tingles gets off on this kind of crap every night. So does Chink,
Crazy Larry and the Skinny guy!
If they had viewers they would be dangerous.
Wait!
This is probably the main reason they have no viewers!!
Ingraham accepted his phony apology!
I would have told him what he could do with it!

I’m glad Greta is being the bigger person here. Ed’s apology was sincere, let it go and hopefully he becomes a better person out of it.

This is not minor. Calling her an idiot and a brainless zombie talking point machine is OK, but at some point, the insult party crosses aline, and this is that line. In much the same way that Greta can never be excused for showing her blind support and admiration for a convicted rapist and thug like Tyson, Schultz has to deal with the fallout of his misogynistic rant.

I am definitely not a fan of the ludicrous Laura Ingraham who flings insults around endlessly and frequently pointlessly, but Schultz was simply wrong to call her a slut in any context. He cold have gone with idiot, moron, buffoon and a whole host of other insults.

To be fair, Ingraham played it up way past the reality of the insult, but all of the pundocracy does that. They are the equivalent of school yard bullies, who can dish it out, but not take it.

I don’t agree with you man. A man’s worth is more than the sum of his individual actions.

Ditto and well said.

Agreed.

Big Ed has eaten his slice of humble pie. Fair enough. Let it go. Playing dog-pile-on-the-rabbit does nothing but make those who do it look small.

‘Nuff said.

I believe his apology is sincere.

But Greta is letting him off the hook too easily, and that’s the problem with this country these days: You can forgive someone for bad behavior, but our standards should insist on a higher caliber of people regardless, especially when they are given a platform to appear on before the country.

Schultz’s use of the word “slut” is indicative of a pathetic character and a low mentality. There are people who would never use that demeaning misogynistic word, ever, because it’s just not in their DNA. There are people who, when drunk, would never say anti-Semitic comments as Mel Gibson did, because it’s just not in their DNA. Schultz may be sincerely apologetic, and he may “grow” from this, but how pathetic is it that a grown-up man even needs to learn this lesson today? And just because there probably are many many grown-up men who are no different than both these idiots doesn’t make it acceptable.

These people are an embarrassment to the nation. We can forgive… but we should insist on higher-caliber people when they are given a platform, be it media or politics… not just better behavior from low people like Schultz.

It’s sad that we can’t just find a handful of stellar characters to lead the country or speak to the nation.

Schutz is a CANCER. You don’t “ignore” a cancer. You go to war against it, bombard it with drugs, and then defeat it. When it comes to the sickos on MSNBC, you bombard them with truth, and then you watch as they scurry into the darkness from which they come.

I have to disagree. This is not some comment or insult. Tyson raped someone. Brutally. Violently. That is a lot more than an “individual action.”

No he’s not. Now you have climbed all the way down to his level. Schultz is another TV loudmouth dips**t that crossed a line. To compare him to a horrible fatal disease is to become him.

I think we should try to forgive. Tyson paid his debt to society. If you go back and read what happened, you’ll see that the State of Indiana went out and hired a ringer of a special prosecutor so they could bring him down. What did Desiree Washington think Tyson had in mind when he asked her up to his penthouse at 2:00 a.m.? Cops and prosecutors are not saints. They are motivated by politics more than anything else. I think you are locked in on a “this is Fox so it must be wrong” jag. I don’t watch Greta because she is such a softball interviewer. Did you see that interview she did with Joran Van der Sloot? But I believe she is a good person.

“And she hopes that Laura Ingraham accepts the apology”

To accept an apology, it would have had to bother Laura in the first place. Judging by her facebook comments, it didn’t appear to have risen to more than a blip on the radar for her.

He also went to prison for it. When do we give people a second chance, or should we just put a brand on their forehead and ship them off to a leper colony?

Don’t get me wrong – I’m no Tyson fan, and I’m horrified by what Mike Vick did (same argument so I’m throwing him in there) . BUT…they both paid for their crime.

I thought from your comments you were a liberal. You know, kumbaya and all that.

Hmmm. Guess not.

You obviously don’t watch Greta. There is nothing “softball” about any of her interviews. You should watch and then perhaps you wouldn’t be regurgitating someone’s talking points.

Love your last paragraph. What exactly has Ingraham done? Nothing – that’s what I thought but according to you it’s way past……

What planet are you inhabiting? Not the rest of the worlds.

Neither a liberal nor a conservative. No Party Affiliation. I make up my own mind about issues based on what I think.

As far as Tyson, sure he did his time, but she has been presenting him as this warm wonderful guy. He isn’t. Neither is Vick. They can have the second chances and such, but I don’t have to accept people that commit violence against women and then go with the she was asking for it,” stuff.

She herself has been relatively quiet, but her media pals have been screaming and she has not stopped them. She has allowed this to play to her advantage, which is fine, since Schultz is the culprit. But, to be fair, Ingraham has never met an insult she would not hurl. This does not excuse Schultz. It does however, retain the perspective that the entire pundocracy exists to toss firebomb type insults at each other. Both side behave like spoiled little brats sorely in need of a time out.

……………………………………………..
That doesn’t make any sense. His apology covered this! Schults having to apologize to anyone at “Fox” is like Poland giving an apology to “Hitler” …”Were’re sorry we were standing in your way”!

Now I only hope Glenn Beck will apologize for making fun of Meghan McCain’s appearance (her weight) in the Public Service Announcement she did about skin cancer.

I saw Beck on O’Reilly’s program the week this happened. He not only did not apologize; he further dismissed Meghan McCain at the end of O’Reilly’s segment.

Well, I haven’t heard any gloating or people wanting to pile on Schultz from FOX. What happened to the predictions from the left?

Well done Greta.

As for Schultz and company: “thou doest protest to much, me thinks”. Meaning, the louder and obstreperous the Leftist Politicos get, the greater their pain as they are are losing the argument.

This debate, that our Nation is now engaged in, is for the core philosophy of America’s future. We know that America’s original cultural doctrine was mercantilism, free enterprise and personal responsibility. Conversely, today, America is challenged by politically correct, Socialists who desire a re-distribution of wealth coupled with re-visionist history.

I don’t know why the Left finds such philosophy compelling, but, today’s American Social-Democrats, seem just as willing to use the methods of their forebears to achieve their goals.

Anyway, Greta, you must be doing something right, you have aggravated Schultz, you must have irritated others!

‘Nuff said.

Point taken,

However, is it reasonable to conclude that Mr. Schulz will have improved his manners or gentlemanly comportment after this episode?

Maybe it is not so much Schultz that offends, but, the Political Philosophy, (Socialism) that created him and others like him, that is so unpalatable to the progeny of our Founders?

Ed Schultz is a pariah in his chosen prfession and must be treated ( shuned ) accordingly.

Who says Laura Ingraham isn’t a slut?

Greta is on the money.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard a more moving apology than Ed’s, and Laura’s response was gracious too.

The only thing about this issue that isn’t over for me is my new-found respect for Ed Schultz.

Duke Brady said:

Everybody who isn’t a worthless, bottom feeding, amoral, douchebag, turd sandwich, creepy guy in a white van outside an elementary school, granny mugging, POS. That’s who.

Keeva said:

Okay then, how about coming up with a transcript or a clip or a link since in your mind Ingraham has called somebody a slut or something equally vial and in your words done it a lot.

BTW When it comes to Ed and his history of Anger Managemment problems, this won’t be the last blowup by Mr. Baloney Sandwich. No doubt about it.

“Schultz responded to this by saying that he hates “f***ing right-wing Republicans””

http://sayanythingblog.com/entry/more_on_ed_schultzs_bar_fight/

Shultz gets no credit for his apology. I wouldn’t give credit to a 10 year-old calling a woman a slut, and I certainly won’t do it for a grown man. He should apologize, he did. He doesn’t get cedit for sincerity, that’s expected. Now, i

Matt writes’ he should be welcomed back to MSNBC with a new respect from viewers for a man who is bravely willing to own up to his mistakes and who can boldly demonstrate how to learn and grow from them’.

Seriously? That’s like giving a kid an award for ‘showing up’ on the field to play a sports game. It’s nothing to be proud of, it’s just what should be done, at a minimum. Setting such low expectations of decency is really bizarre.

His actions going forward will determine if he learned a lesson in basic civility or not.

My wise and insightful 84 year old Mother suggested: “Is Mr. Schultz making the apology on his own, or, was he TOLD to do such? That is how to judge the mans sincerity”.

She is a retired High School Librarian.

(Then again, I don’t imagine students went to the Principal’s office on their own?

I was eating breakfast last February with my Grand Daughter and I asked her, “what day is tomorrow?”

She said “Its Presidents Day!” She’s a smart kid.

I asked “What does President’s Day mean?” I was waiting for something about Washington or Lincoln…etc.

She replied, “President’s Day is when the President Obama steps out of the White House, and if he sees his shadow, we have one more year of unemployment.”

You know, it hurts when hot coffee spurts out your nose.

Wow, and now fat old Rush and Loony Boy Glenny Beck have called a woman a whore. I just have to ask right-wing males, why do you grow up thinking YOUR women are garbage? I mean, they are good for something, they seem to put up with you evil, stupid boys. :)

Sounds pretty ignorant and stupid, but then again, no wonder you right-wingers think women are nothing.

What does a spoiled, pampered conservative child know about WORK anyways?

This coming from Republicans. Are you going to hold the idiots Rush and Glenn to the same standards? Run along now, boy.

To: BISCUIT, (Are you from Boulder?)

It was a joke, and given the “zeitgeist”, rather tame. I apologize if I offended your tender sensibilities regarding children. However, and let me guess, you are one of the “Ban MacDonald’s Happy Meals” crowd?

Moreover, how did misogyny get in this conversation?

Take the ‘yellow pill’, maybe watch an episode of South Park. Have a nice day.
