21. This is when I wrote off Ed Schultz as a bloviating hawk:

Schultz explaining his support for the Saudi backed Libyan jihadi "rebels":

"We need to stand behind people who want freedom. This isn't Bush-talk, this is totally different from Iraq, it's totally different from any other situation... In my opinion." "This is...(deep breath)... a situation, where we have got, a coalition that has come together, and realizes that Qaddafi is a terrorist. The President has gone on record saying that Libyan agents have killed Americans. That's all as an American I need to hear! Let's get it done! Let's arm these rebels, let's give them a chance to fight!"

Then he "interviews" Jeremy Scahill.

It wasn't Bush-talk, it was Bush-talk-plus. It was awful and I'll never forget that this joker began by announcing that he was a "progressive".
