Yesterday I decided to send an email to Ed Schultz because I just think he has gone over the top with his complaints about this President and his administration. Follow me over the jump for the email I sent him and his response.

After lisentening to you this evening on MSNBC I am actually glad that we no longer get your radio show in the DC area. You sound just like the left wing version of Rush Limbaugh.
It took 8 long years to create the mess that this President inherited and the President is suppose to fix all of this countries ills in 10 months. There isn't an inch worth of difference in how the Right and the Left complain about this President.
Both of you say he is weak. Both of you say he lacks leadership. Both of you say he should be working on jobs and on and on. Tell me what is the difference?
When he loses Congress next year because people like you discourage voters everyday and then we get absolutely nothing done then you will really will have something to complain about.
Keep it up Ed because you are working mighty hard to get your wish. You are Unbelievable!!!
How I Listen: Online
Ed's RESPONSE
"Get your dildo out....that's what you need !"
Can you believe this? A major cable show host responds this way.
I sent him an email demanding an apology and his response was: "You can't send nasty emails and not expect a tough response. I refuse to be a target...I don't need to take this garbage and that's the way it is...m"
Well folks that was about all I can take of Mr. Ed. I forwarded his email to Steve Capus and Phil Griffin at NBC. I also sent it to Chuck Todd.
Can you please flood him with emails about this. His response was utterly offensive and he is apparently proud of it.
Please join me in letting him know the power of our grassroots and how we can turn him and his sponsors completely off.
His email address is:
ed.msnbc@nbcuni.com
ed@edschultzshow.com
I will never watch this clowns show again.
UPDATE:
Glad you are done...

You say you refuse to be a target???
Ed you're onTV!!!!! You're an opinion giver and a shouter. So if you don't want to be a target then stop screaming with what some of us perceive as over the top rhetoric.
I'm done!

There was nothing "tough" about that response it was pure and simple gutter. My critcism of you warranted a gutter response in your opinion. Ok Ed.
Thanks

Wow!
You rant and carry on daily about this President and when you get some of that critcism back you (a radio personality and cable show host) resort to a nasty offensive reply like this. I vented my frustration with you and we could have agreed to disagree but instead you offend me with this foul jargon. You had so many options at your disposal Ed. You could have blown me off. You could have explained in a methodical manner why you feel the way you do or you could have insulted me. You went with the least courageous. Why did it become necessary to get into the gutter simply because you didn't like my comment?
I will be forwarding your response to the powers to be at NBC because I am in utter shock at your response. I think about the number of people that I come in contact with everyday through my job and my writing on the various very popular and far reaching blog sites. Think of the impact, especially women, if they no longer supported the Ed Show or his sponsors. I am extremely active in the strongest grassroots community since the minutemen took up arms against the English Parliment (OFA). I really hope that I don't have to use all the resources at my disposal to call you out in a very public manner. I await your apology.
This really saddens me.

I know a lot of you didn't believe me or some think I deserved his vulgar response but Jermey Gaines the VP of Communications for MSNBC got involved and Ed just sent me this email:
The email I sent you was wrong and uncalled for....the daily fight has worn me down. Maybe that's no excuse but it was out of character and a disrespectable response. Please accept my apology and understand I made a mistake....ed Print | New Window Full Message ed to you - 24 min agoMore Details From: ed@edschultzshow.comHide Add to: To Do, Calendar To: My Email Address:Bcc:Date:Fri, Nov 13, 2009 9:40 pm
Believe it or not or whether you think it was warranted or not I got an apology. Thank You to those who believed me and sent emails.
