Schultz: Republicans Don't Give a Damn About You | Video Cafe

MSNBC host Ed Schultz blasted House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) and his "cronies" for forcing President Barack Obama to delay his speech on jobs from Sept. 7 to Sept. 8....

"Once again, this President has smoked 'em out. He has proven to the country one more time that he can't even schedule a speech to the joint session of the Congress without it being obstructed..."

Ed Shultz is a left-leaning blabberwockie for MSNBC. I don't know much more about him than that because I don't watch his show. But this does seem to be the official Democratic spin on the recent spat about Obama's speaking schedule: Obama triumphs by proving yet again what big bad old meanies those Republicans really are. Which might even be, somehow, bizarrely persuasive if Obama had even tried to hold out against their big bad old meanie meanness for, you know, an hour or two before giving in and switching his speech so it no longer conflicts with that big old meanie Republican candidates' debate – the one we've all been waiting for lo these many months – and now conflicts instead with the first regular-season NFL game of the, you know, season, and who cares about that anyway.

Really.
