Don't let Ed Schultz speak for Progressives!

... And change the meaning of the word.

It’s Time for a Coalition! The only way we can end US militarism around the world, in my opinion, is to form a coalition of like-minded political activists on both sides of the political spectrum. Conservative libertarians (in general) are against preemptive military intervention. Progressive liberals are (overwhelmingly) against preemptive military intervention. If both sides got together on this one issue, we might be more powerful than the M.I.C. (Military Industrial Complex) establishment media (CNN, MSNBC, Fox). Three wars. We (the US) are currently involved in, and responsible for starting preemptively, three wars. Unconstitutional wars too I might add. Does that bother any of you? Does it make you feel like you haven’t done enough? It makes me feel that way and I was only 15 at the start of the first one. Didn’t we kick up enough dust at the start of the first two wars? Progressives should not let this fake “progressive” Ed Schultz speak for them. I realize that we may be past the point where establishment politics can save us, but i still like to keep a foot in each field (alternative and establishment) just in case. RON PAUL 2012 (just in case it can help and we’re not too far gone)!

O yea! And... You don't have to go to the UN... You have to go to the US congress to get approval for military action. Come on people let's not let these anti-constitution (Schultz, Obama, Bush) hacks get away with such brazen disregard for our (US) founding document. ONLY CONGRESS CAN AUTHORIZE MILITARY ACTION YOU FAKE, LIBERAL WIERDO!

O yea and... sorry about giving you guys the third degree. This post was copy/pasted from another forum where people are less open minded. The whole "Does it make you feel like you haven’t done enough?" part wasn't meant for avalonians. I'm sure you guys did a bang up job of protesting the war! :o

Ed Schultz is nothing more than Republican Light...what a fraud, he was trying to be the Glenn Beck of Progressives when he came out with that march a few months back. Not one other progressive talk show host was invited to participate or speak at the rally. On his show he doesn't encourage real debate or conversations with callers, he just lets them talk a minute or so, then "Thanks for callin-in buddy!"

The real progressives in radio are Norman Goldman, Randi Rhodes, Mike Malloy, Thom Hartman. At http://normangoldman.com Goldman has a great four point plan for saving America, he encourages people to get involved from the grassroots level as a way to create real change...we have to get these rich, corporate whores out of our democracy because it's been sold to the highest bidder. Until that happens fascism will continue to reign.

At http://randirhodes.com she has a great homework section always filled with interesting and informative political news and is one of the most outspoken in trying to get people from all parties to come together on the same page to fight the corporations that are behind the media takeover and the division between political ideologies. We all want the same things, the only people that want these wars are the ones who stand to profit from them, people seem to be waking up to the fact that terrorism is just an aberration created to keep people in fear.

Once we realise that the left/right paradigm is a control technique, we can let go of thinking one side or the other has the answers.
For one thing, they don't work for us, so their answers don't provide our needs.
For a second thing, we are a hindrance to them.

HAHA hey great signature tag! The whole "trust me" thing with the picture of senator palpatine. Very apropriate because Ed Schultz tries to pursuade us that Obama is trustworthy after Obama has gone back on his word so many times. I wish i had your signature tag when i posted this. i would have put it at the end of the video hahha!

I did not make it to the end of the clip. It is why I do not watch TV. Cahill has a good point but the dummy has a show, 5 nights a week. Watching a clip like this makes me feel vomited on. Ed Shultz is who GE allows progressives to have. Just like Rachel Maddow and her job keeping butt kissing of TPTW.

I feel very much the same. My stomach turns sick. I could not make it till the end either. It is really disgusting with what they feed people with such crap. How anyone could take it seriously. It reminds me completelly how we used to be fed by Comunist propaganda in old times of Cold War. This has just different label, different colours, though main idea is the same: to manipulate people, control masses, hold the power and to play own games. I do not watch news any more either. Even children can not believe what they produce on there.:( Sorry for negative comment though it is as it is..P.
