Thanks to Think Progress for this—
Last night, MSNBC’s Ed Schultz spoke at Minnesota progressive talk radio AM950’s Blue State Bash at the Minneapolis Convention Center. During his remarks, Schultz revealed that he recently had a testy confrontation with White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs (Gibbs appeared on Schultz’s show this past Thursday). “Mr. Gibbs and I had quite a conversation off the air the other night,” he revealed:
SCHULTZ: I told him he was full of sh*t is what I told him. … And then he gave me the Dick Cheney f-bomb. … I told Robert Gibbs, I said “And I’m sorry you’re swearing at me, but I’m just trying to help you out. I’m telling you you’re losing your base. Do you understand you’re losing your base?”

“And then he gave me the Dick Cheney f-bomb”
Good for Gibbs, he gained a few points in my book. You should be given the f-bomb whenever possible, Schultz. You’re an ignorant, pig headed, moronic, uninformed, pathetic, dangerous loser.
F*** you, Schultz.

It is SO fun to watch the liberal infighting. I hope and pray it continues.
Robert commented:
Ed Putz talking about Dimwit Gibbs.
Daniel commented:
They are both losing their base.
Positively delicious.
Hey, pass the popcorn down here.
Dell commented:
If Obama loses his “base”? Which base would that be, Ed? The 25% far left – which makes 100% of the noise? Or the 75% centrist – comprised of quite a few normal people who are just garden variety Democrats?
I know he’s talking about his favored brethren on the far left and who could blame Obama if he “pivots” more toward that 75% of centrists. Bill Clinton did exactly that and he fared pretty well, politically.
If Obama DOESN’T move to a more centrist position, he won’t have a tinker’s chance in Hell of being re-elected. Three more years just like 2009 and he’s “one and done”.

I’m no fan of Gibbs but Schulz is a turd’s turd. He’s a despicable moron. Good for Gibbs.
Ozwitch commented:
Daniel, the popcorn isn’t gonna last. It’s only the end of January and we’ve gone through about a year’s supply in 2 weeks so far.
Need. More. Popcorn.
Doug commented:
Well, Ed would be the one who knows this Administration is full of s**t, because he’s had his head shoulder deep in their a** for over a year now.
Alana commented:
Who would want that base anyway.

[Schultz also noted that April 7 will be his first anniversary of his TV show, a date that coincides with Sarah Palin’s scheduled appearance on behalf of Michele Bachmann in Minnesota. Schultz — resides in Minnesota — made this pledge to the audience:
If all of you here will make a commitment to me tonight that if I bring my TV show right across the street from where they’re doing their rally, you’ll all show up. [applause] That a deal? Ok, we’ll do it. [...]
fire-warned is fore-armed, not that MB or SP need
anything but their words to defeat the blowhard..
fyi.. that is their base, they are the ones
who are more or less running the media..
what a (fitb), the American people don’t want public option,
they want single payer.. where to begin with this simpletin..
(misspelling on purpose)

I agree with Schultz. Gibbs is full of s^^t. But I agree with Gibbs too in this case. That hasn’t happened before.
GrayRider commented:
These two d-bags remind me of those fat boy sumo suits that two antagonists donn to whale on each other with padded sticks in the ring.
rrpjr commented:
Losing one’s “base” is always more alarming to a leftist than losing one’s country. What’s a country next to a “base”? Betray your country? No big deal. Betray the “base”? God forbid.
Of course, he’s already lost far more than the base.
Corporal Vere commented:
The pot calling the kettle black . . .
Three more years and we are done. God help us!
How about we all go up to MN and kick Shultz’ arse? Then, he’d have two black eyes.

Who the hell knew that one election (Scott Brown’s) would turn the Democrat party into the Donner party?
sandy commented:
Its hard to take sides in this argument. Both are equally disgusting. But I find it interesting that the idiots on MSNBC are beginning to take a tough line with this administration. Wonder if it has something to do with getting their ratings up before Comcast takes over.
sandy commented:
retire05 — Brilliant lolol
Sojourner commented:
Air America’s dust and both these morons are tossing air balls full Obama.. priceless.

Classy dingbats.
tomlouink commented:
Don’t get your pink panties in a wadd Ed; the Obama Administration is not going to change their policies; he is going to continue making the fair speeches; lieing out his teeth with almost every word; blaming our nations problems on Bush is not going to get him re-elected; it makes him look more and more like a dumb cry baby like the wuss we know he is. The U.S. will be in alot more debt when Obama leaves office in 2012 than ever before; Now then tell me how good of a habitual liar he was because a good president he is not.
Good-Day.

Imagine the idea of a nobody like Ed Shultz on a last place network like MSNBC calling a dope like Gibbs impolitic. That really takes chutzpah.
