Ed Schultz expressed concern today that the 1,200 National Guard troops that President Obama has ordered to the Mexican border may have been issued “shoot to kill” orders.
NewsBusters has the video:

Apparently, Schultz didn’t get the work that the unarmed National Guard members will not be used to target illegal immigrants.

  1. This is the problem with the media in general (not that a blowhard opinion show is “news”). The rush to say SOMETHING (especially something that fits the liberal/progressive narrative) overrides the responsibility to get it RIGHT.

    Why research and investigate and report the truth when you can just make up false or slanderous or libelous things that you’ll never be held accountable for saying?

    If the crap you make up turns out to be true, hey you scooped everyone. If not, oops, no consequence.

  2. OT:

    President Thin Skin makes a total fool of himself!

    Obama gives the stinkeye to a gay-activist heckler, brushes off his shoulder where Barbara Boxer touched him, and then stops his speech and rants about how people who criticize him need to go somewhere else, and nothing is his fault.

    Truly amazing. Watch Obama’s face when the guy starts screaming. If looks could kill! And why did he brush off his shoulder? Does he think Boxer has cooties?

  3. At some point, if they keep this up, even the most uninterested average Joe voter is going to realize the Left is totally batsh*t crazy, and even worse, that includes the snazzy-cool administration they thought they were voting for as well.

    If they haven’t already done so.

  4. What’s the nuance between “illegals” and “drug runners?” A drug runner is “illegal.” A gun runner over the border is “illegal.”

    The media isn’t incompetent, it’s evil. They are setting National Guard up to be shot at by drug runners.

  5. Questions:
    1. Why are they unarmed? They will be shot at and need to defend themselves.
    2. There’s a warning out for a terrorist from Somalia and may be crossing from Mexico into Texas. Liberals: Do you let in terrorists from Mexico or do you stop them? If you let them in you are aiding them. If you stop them how do you know who they are? Are you going to racially profile people who look they are from Somalia? That’s profiling. That’s why we have laws. Everyone is treated the same under the law.
    3. Why does Janet Napolitano have a deeper voice than Eric Holder? I’ve heard them both on the radio alot lately and it keeps me up at night.

  6. Shoot to kill, I have no problem with that. Maybe they will get the message they are not wanted. Deport all the illegals,asylum seekers,refugees they are all cowards who won’t fight for there own freedom, they invade other countries and then try to make that country like there own. The US is becoming a 3rd world country just like the people that are jumping the fence.

    In tijuana 2 years ago, the police where stripped of there weapons because of widespread corruption, they had to patrol with slingshots. I wonder why the guard was stripped of there weapons, does obama think they are corrupt or not qualified to carry weapons.

    They need to at least issue slingshots to the national guard to defend themselves. They will still be outmatched going up against AK-47′s but they might get off a lucky shot.

  7. Fair is fair. Obama and the “Justice Department” and other liberals claim the Arizona law is racial profiling. Karma!! Obama’s sending the Guard to the border will lead to “shoot to kill!” Hillarious!!

  8. Barbed Wire, Guns, Mines and Warning Plaques . . . . It has worked before . . .

    Regards,

  9. I do not believe that this guy doesn’t know that the guard isn’t going to be armed. That’s producers, fact-checkers, and he’s pure WH boilerplate, so he’s connected to the “messaging.” SO, why is he broadcasting this hysteria … to create trouble.

  10. B.O. is just trying to start another problem that may escalate to a crisis. He NEEDS these crisis’ to keep the heat off of his own failed agenda.

  11. Why…that’s just psycho talk.

  12. I’m sure all 1,000 people who viewed that telecast would agree with Ed. MSNBC is a shill of a network and completely insignificant.

  13. Of course, Liberal Ed is silent on his opinion of the armed illegal border-crossers shooting-to-kill Americans…

  14. Learn from Israel.

    Ever since Israel built the “evil” wall, the number of suicide bombers in Israel has been reduced to, more or less,… Obama… errr… zero.

    Idea: I had a “Scrubsathon” (I like “Scrubs”, sue me), and there is one episode where Dr Cox was using “Dorian” instead of “stupid”. So “this was stupid” would turn into “this was Dorian.”

    So my suggestion is, if something stupid happens or is done or whatever… we shouldn’t use “stupid” anymore, but rather use “Obama”.

    Examples:
    This movie was Obama.
    What you did was really Obama.

  15. The liberal media is the propaganda arm of this regime, their job is to spread falsehoods of as fact. When lies are repeated often enough, a certain percentage of the population believe the lies.

  16. The Guard is there to make sure illegals invade the US safely.

  17. At first I thought that the order of the Guard to the borders of Arizona to NOT interefer with the illegals could mean only one thing…..they were there to police the citizens of Arizona.
    Now that I know they will be unarmed I anticipate a lot of navel gazing competitions to spontaneously erupt!

  18. Didn’t anyone tell Ed Blutarski that fat, ignorant, and stupid is no way to go through life?

  19. He definally needs another bowl of Fruit Loops.

  20. I remember when “ED” got his own radio show. He was going to be the answer to Rush and take over the airwares and topple him.

    How has that worked out for you “ED”. No so good huh?

  21. Obama likely disarmed the troops so that they will be as impotent as he is.

  22. Just so you know, 241 Marines, Army and Navy personnel were murdered by a Hezbolla truck bomb in Lebanon in 1983 in their barracks while they slept because their Marine guards were ordered to be unarmed.

    Unarmed in a freakin war zone. Hey Toonces, why dontcha just send the Boy Scouts to the border.

  23. WTF does he want them to do? Escort them back with milk and cookies?

  24. Besides the two workers in the control room, does anyone watch this fool?

  25. They won’t actually be patrolling the borders.

    The official said the National Guard would be used to “provide intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance support,” as well as support “counternarcotics enforcement” and provide “training capacity” until the Border Patrol can bring more officers on board. The additional funding would be used to improve border security technology and increase the number of agents, investigators and prosecutors targeting drug, human and weapons traffickers.

    Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., said he’s heard that “the 1,200 border patrol troops are, in effect, desk jobs.”

    “They aren’t boots on the ground at the border,” he said, adding that “they were not intended to be deployed to the border.”

    “Rather they’ll be investigating, administrative support, maybe training,” he said. “Now that’s all fine…but the real value of the National Guard is to be seen.”

    This makes the dramatic rumor being started/spread by Ms Schultz even more idiotic.

  26. Someone please give Ed Schultz a sarape & sombrero, paint a little mustache on him, and shove him across the border.
    Then call the Guard and point them at Ed.
    Moron squared.

  27. Issued shoot to kill orders? By whom? Obama? Napolitano? Holder? What has that man been drinking?
