Ed Shultz, or Sargent Shultz as Rush Limbaugh calls him, ( I'm sure a reference from Sgt Shultz always stating "I know nothing ... nothing" ) is on a vendetta with Al Sharpton and some other Black politicians trying to get Rush Limbaugh off the air. More to the point they are trying to go after Rush's advertisers in an attempt to reduce their support of his show and potentially effect some stations that carry his show.
Their weapon of choice? Racism .. They are saying that Rush is racist because of his using the term "Driving Ms Nancy" and showing a cartoon with Nancy Pelosi in the back seat and a prominent Black politician driving her around.
It's interesting though that there is no mention that Rush has hired and maintained a Black (minority) employee as his head call screener and paid them extremely well over they years. Much better than Ed Shultz call screener.
I don't know about the Driving Ms Nancy remark but I've heard far worse and horrible things from host on Air America when it was in business and broadcasting from their host such as Al Frankin, who is now a setting Senator. Also you don't hear any comments about the left's calling and degrading patriotic Americans as "tea-baggers" a sexual reference to a sex act. I guess their anger depends on if it is a conservative or liberal making the comments.
No big surprises here though. You just know though that Ed Shultz is so jealous and envious of Rush's effect and audience just like MSNBC and CNN are of FOX's audience and ratings.
I actually heard one comment from a person on Ed's show stating that Rush had a very small number of Advertisers and audience though citing for example some advertisers request the RUSH be entered in order to get some special offer advertised on his show. These people are priceless and clueless at that. They fail to realize that the use of RUSH, FOX, SEAN, GLEN, or ED whatever letters are used to allow the advertiser to gauge which of their ads are more effective and which ones are actually paying off the most.
