This Happened: Ed Schultz Mocks Mitt Romney With Goodnight Moon Parody

Following former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty‘s dis of MSNBC’s The Ed Show during last night’s New Hampshire primary coverage, host Ed Schultz dedicated a bedtime story to him — a satire of Goodnight Moon entitled Goodnight Mitt lambasting his chosen candidate Mitt Romney. “In the great 12 million dollar beach house, there was a telephone and 250 million bucks and a picture of greedy multi-millionaire schmucks!” Schultz read.

“There were three little capitalist cronies and a bowl full of pious baloney and a quiet old lady who was whispering ‘don’t privatize Social Security!'” Schultz continued. “Good night to unions, good night jobs, good night clean air, good night public education, good night immigration, good night Wall Street regulation, good night middle class, good night auto czar, good night dog on the roof of the car.”

“Good night, Roe v Wade, good nightmare range equality, good night to the old lady whispering ‘don’t privatize Social Security!’ Good night Medicaid, good night Medicare, good night American dreams everywhere. Sweet dreams, T-paw, sleep just as good as your presidential campaign. Nighty-night!”
