Hyperbole and one sided diatribes – Ed Schultz? Nah!

ed shultz could fill the hole in the titanic

DAMN, there goes our Olbermann free February!!

Thanks Colby.

This must be the monthly poke-fun-at-someone-on-the-left-so-I-still-seem-edgy-and-relevant bit. This had to be done so the dumber viewers don’t catch on to what an uptight politically correct bore he has become.

Someplace, somewhere Redd Foxx is looking down yelling “you pussy!”

DAMN Jon, you made me laugh again!!

Thanks Colby.

Okay clone bit wasn’t funny , but the rest was.

And, I know I shouldn’t judge based on a couple of clips, but Schultz may well be the most obnoxious blowhard to ever have his own news commentary program. God he’s awful.

He summed up the MSNBC crew very well.

How can you fill a hole with another hole?

yeah but all he does is go after Fox. I read it right here

Rachel Maddow is about the only one on there that is decent. At least she’s civil with interviews as opposed to balloon head Matthews and hot air balloon Schultz.

Stewart can Schultz my Matthews with his O’Donnell any day! Mah do!

It’s more like a reminder that the airheads on the left are also airheads. Politically correct bores are boring partisans who look away when awesome comedy material comes from the left, e.g. Bill Maher.

Wow, can’t wait for that super thick skinned self depreciating awesome fun guy with famous friends both alive and dead to let us all know how awesome him and his great friends thought that was. And because Stewart is one of his really good friends, this was all done in awesome good fun. Just ask Keith. I bet he has the signed cue card.

That was great!

IT’S TOO SIMPLE…@msnbc lost it’s “scrotum banter” degenerate attractions @keitholbermann http://tinyurl.com/4qhvctp @davidshuster http://tinyurl.com/4r5fzrg

Comcast has a “no teabagger” policy, I guess

It was funny…but the audience was obviously not having any of it hehe

True enough.

When one party has 2 years of total control of government and the same Palin/FOX/Beck jokes are constantly regurgitated, one starts to realize there’s nothing edgy or subversive about it.

I thought satire was about stickin it to those in power.

When Jay Leno becomes more edgy and unpredictable than Jon Stewart, somethings gone wrong.

See, that’s just it — in the 1960s, liberals held protest marches as a way of questioning authority.

In the 21st century, liberals march in lockstep with authority and attack the protesters who question it.

Who would have imagined that they’d buy into the slogan, “We’re from the government and we’re here to help you.”

So will anyone really see this as a paean to Olbermann’s strength of conviction?

Aww.. somebody’s not happy ..LOL!

Good Grief! How old are you? In the 60′s they were protesting the war in Vietnam. Now what is the teabags protesting? Apples and Oranges.

When Leftist’s protest it’s —-activism , when it’s conservatives it’s —-hatred/racist ___________ fill in the blank

So, Fox is the only “news organization” allow to attack whom ever they please.
Nobody dare criticize the cable new network the Simpson’s built.
It’s nice to see the Double Standard is still in style.

What DON’T the left protest? It wasn’t just the war. Trees, Wales, Capitalism, Bathrooms in a Dorm, Food, Give me this or give me that etc…

What you have are white, upper middle class kids screaming “look at me-look at me!!!” Trying to find their own identity by saying “I’m not like Mommy or Daddy”.. Literally becoming followers and trying to fit in. They were part of a herd, that’s the funny thing

Hippies were literally like little children.

Meanwhile the people who actually did make a difference weren’t busy yelling I want, I want….They were out there doing things that have changed our lives for the better like making vaccines, better wheelchairs, communication devices, and porno theatres.

All the good intentions in the world will never add up to the person who was lining his pockets figuring out hearing aids and seizure medicine.

You aren’t even old enough to remember the 60′s, who are you trying to kid? I doubt you were even born then.

Jon Jon…your writers are getting lazy.  You had better start proof reading your scripts so that you don’t continue to look like a jerk.

Hell ol’ fat Ed Schultz could fill the shoes of an elephant he is so fat. Chris Matthews is acting every bit as goofy as old Keith but, Chris has an IQ of about 58 while Keith had an IQ of about 110. Rachael is hard to look at and the new guy, sink from Turkey is a wacko at best. So I guess it’ll have to be Fat Eddie as MSNBC’s entry on The Biggest Loser which is exactly what MSNBC has become.

I appreciated the image of one of the young “clones” yelling at a wall.

It’s always funny to see Mediaite come to the rescue whenever Jon Stewart makes fun of MSNBC, insisting that while he is usually hilarious, whenever he makes fun of the left he has stumbled upon the one area where his powers of humor magically vanish into “chirping crickets.” More evidence that liberals simply can’t take a joke, which is ironic seeing that the entire MSNBC lineup is funnier and more absurd than anything on Comedy Central.

My only guess is it derives itself after 8 years of the Bush administration.

Did you catch the part about Pres. Obama being the most leftest communist socialist democratic progressive liberal anti American President ever?

Look at the numbers as the FoxNews faithful like to point out, even “liberals” don’t take MSNBC that seriously. MSNBC viewers aren’t the people that shout over town hall meetings in fits of rage due to what MSNBC tells them to be angry about. When most “liberals” all ready don/t think that the talking heads at MSNBC are that interesting and often act ridiculous, there isn’t that much shock humor found. I agree with Stewart’s mocking of Olbermann and Schultz.

Notice how chirping crickets are also a result of the people here blindingly faithfully defending them…

Imagine if Stewart was chopping down some FoxHead, I would have to guess that they would be defending their Team 6 pages deep by now.

Not a very good bit.

Too much “inside baseball”.

MSNBC is in a laughable paradox, meaning that no matter WHO they install as successor to Olbermann, the cable channel will STILL show moribund ratings. So! Poor Them! Get another milquetoast like Maddow? Can’t have that! Another fire-breathing dragon like Olbermann? That’s what got MSNBC into the cellar in the first place. I love it when Libs and Lib media breast-feeders simply paint themselves into a corner where the only answer is that Liberalism and all that it stands for is despised.

Schultz is an idiot: “I will fight these bastards every night at six o’clock.”

Yeah…when no one is watching.

LOL @ all Leftist media hacks.

So you are saying that no matter what the liberal aimed media throws at the liberals, they still wont just tune in like nice little sheep? I guess you understand that the liberal public isn’t looking for a “liberal” cable news station to validate their views?

It was funny… Jon did his job again. :) Me Likie.

Yep I saw that too. What the hell does he think it was… is he that obtuse??? Does Olbermann not realize why he wasn’t invited to the Daily Show???

“, Lawrence O’Donnell seems too smart”

Are you kidding me?????

Exactly. Political satire is poking fun at the powers that be. SNL used to be great at it and still comes up with some good ones here and there. But when you keep hammering away at the party that’s no longer in power, people start to get wise to your partisanship.

When I think Lawrence O’Donnell, “too smart” comes billions of synapse firings after “mean-spirited socialist hack.”

I think this is a pretty valid point.

Can Ed Schultz Fill ‘Olbermann Shaped Hole’ In Our Nation’s Discourse?”

Ed is a hole. An ahole.

Shhh. Don’t let some of the progressives that comment here know that you’re old. You’ll have Iris or LeviCoult asking you to drop dead.

If they really wanted to improve ratings at MSNBC, they should just stream FOX all day!

Just to let you know, that only takes microseconds.

Olbermann vs. Shuster
Olbermann vs. Deutch
Olbermann vs. Abrams
Olbermann vs. FOX
Olbermann vs. NBC Sports
Olbermann vs. MSNBC
Olbermann vs. Stewart

C’mon, even Progressives can find the common denominator, can’t they?

Oh, Colby Hall, you poor subliterate dunce. There’s nothing wrong with your reporting, as far as I can tell. But the violence you and you Mediaite confreres perpetrate against poor, old, defenseless English usage is pretty darned egregious. Todays problem: ” Rachel Maddow seems too civil and gentile…” You mean “genteel,” which means exceedingly polite. “Gentile” is a synonym for Christian, usually used in comparison or contrast with “Jews,” as in “Be they Jew or Gentile,” for example. The fact that Rachel Maddow is not, in fact, of gentile origin or background makes your gaffe doubly unfortunate. I have said it before, and I’ll say it again. You folks need a copy editor. But if I’m going to keep doing this (and the regularity of your mistakes means it could easily be a full-time job), I’m going to have to start charging for it.

I was trying to figure out what that kid was doing. I thought maybe Olbermann had a hair flipping thing that I knew nothing about.

Who ARE these people?

Thank you, I wasn;t able to figure that one out either.

“National discourse?” What a curious synonym for his empty-headed, sophomoric, hate-infested, uberleftwing bullshit.
