      Ed calls Rush Limbaugh a coward?
      How obvious can Ed be?
      Rush is the biggest coward in the media.

      He sits on his fat draft-dodging butt for 3 hours, pontificating on stuff he has no idea what he's talking about, makes up anything and everything about people he doesn't like, and does ads.

      The one time he dared come out of his cocoon, where he's protected my multiple layers from contrary views, as a guest host of the old Pat Sajak talk show.
      He failed absolutely miserably.

      His own half-hour TV show degenerated in hysterical whining and re-running the same old video clip until his own hand-picked audience was screaming at him to knock it off.

      Face it. Rush is a failure. Even with all his money.

        One of the funniest things I have ever seen. I think Limpjaw knew he just wouldn't be able to hack it on the tube which makes me wonder why he did the ESPN gig... wasn't surprised in the least when he blew that one.

        I recall a CBS exec or some other VIP at the network saying that Limpjaw was mortified after that debacle and it destroyed his confidence for quite some time.

        You have watched this piece, I take it, and this is the best you can come up with? I must say, I'm highly disappointed in you. Ah well... we all have our 'down days', do we not? :)

        Face it. Limpjaw's no match for Big Eddie. And deep down underneath all that false machismo he spews on the radio... he knows it. THAT'S why he wimps out everytime a lib makes him a genuine offer to debate.

        Hi PC, you troll. I'm glad you're proud, but that don't cut it around here.
        I give all the so-called conservatives a challenge-Prove you're right for a change instead of giving us hyperbole and blind patriotism.
        You can't do it because you can't help opening your mouth before your brain kicks in.
        You conservatives don't know how to debate, unless it means denigrating your opponents in the basest fashion.
        Here's my e-mail:rinehart7093@gmail.com
        There. Are you up for the challenge?

                You think calling someone a hypocrite (with a nice exclamation point at the end, like Emile Zola) isn't denigrating? Take off your blinders.

        unlike conservatives like you and rush, liberals arent obsessed with huge ratings to boost a massive ego and make up for any lack of knowledge or intelligence, which conservatives clearly have an issue with.

        Hey.... proudconservative,

        I'm curious, with all the bluster and spewing the Rush does on a daily basis... he must really think he's a smart guy... so what possible reason would Rush have (or you for doing your pathetic best) at defending Rush in this one? Being he's such a genius and all.

        I have no radio show or TV show... I'm just a simple average American who follows politics and seeks truth, but I seriously doubt Rush would even want to debate me, for just those reasons.

        Also, this is not about whether Ed Schultz has '10's of dozens' of viewers or millions... this is about Rush Limbaugh being a loud mouth drug addled punk who is to much a puss to go anywhere but Fox-Noise where they treat him like a queen!

        So, you actually listen to and agree with Rush? If so, why do you call yourself a "proudconservative"? Rush isn't a conservative and the viewpoints he spews are not conservative. Oh, and he's laughing at folks like you because you are so gullible that you believe he is.

        So, really, why do you support him? Are you on his payroll?

      See, reichies, Ed is offering your 'hero' a shot at really proving himself. Ed's a straight shooter, tough but as fair as fair can possibly be. So what's the problem? Why won't Limpjaw do it?

            If you catch his on air clips, notice how he is always pulling at the front of his shirt, like some sort of tick. That made me think like you, about the junkie scratching and itching. No doubt if they did random drug tests on him, he would test positive. Also at times his speech is slurred, besides the usual mouth full of spit sound.

          It always cracks me up when Rush is on Fox getting interviewed by Hannity as some sort of expert. So much wisdom it makes my head hurt.

          In one week Hannity interviewed Rush, Coulter and O'Reilly. What deversity. A fine meshing of ideals in the never ending quest for the truth.

            What's interesting about that is whenever Limpjaw is 'interviewed' by Hannity - or by anyone else on Faux, he won't allow himself to be interviewed by anyone else these days - it's always by phone. Now Limpjaw has this little EIB jet and he likes to jet around like he did last week but when it comes to being interviewed he cannot do it live in the studio. It has to be from his home. If I am wrong about this then please point it out... I don't follow that lunatic around for every second as I actually have a life, lol.

        From Wikipedia:

        Schultz-Prager exchange: Schultz has engaged in a minor conflict with talk-show host Dennis Prager. Prager defended controversial comments made by William J. Bennett on the September 28, 2005 broadcast of his morning radio program, which Schultz characterized as being racist. Prager asserted that Schultz had quoted Bennett out of context and Schultz challenged Prager to a debate. Prager accepted the challenge but Schultz never responded. No debate has taken place and the issue appears to be dead.

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Schultz

        Hmmm...seems that Schultz has a history of being a coward. But take heart small-minded liberals. The facts won't do a thing to open your closed minds.
