Ed Schultz Blaming Republicans For Collapse Of U.S. Postal Service

[Full-Auto]

Why do you hate the constitution our founders left us?

Always with the projections.

Did you find the stones to denounce cancelling elections?

Once again, Fat Ed Schultz is blaming all Republicans for another crisis. {that's pretty much 1/2 of his show}
Well last night Sargaent Schultz devoted the first 13/14 minutes of his comedy hour demonizing Republicans for the financial crisis the USPS is in.
Now Hold Your Horses! Didn't Al Gore(Democrat) Invent The Internet?
Didn't The Internet Gradually Eat Away At The USPS ?
In 2007 "Democrat House Speaker Pelosi" Initialized the 2008 Recession.
In 2008, The Democrats Caused A Worsening Housing Bubble
In 2009 Obama Moved In And MILLIONS Lost Their JOBS!!
When Millions Are Unemployed, THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO SPEND ON PRODUCTS&SERVICES
PROVIDED BY THE USPS !'
Yet Still, Ed Schultz has found a way to blame Republicans for the mess our mailmen are in and the possibility that FED-EX and UPS may have to buy it out.
What's really happening here is that Ed Schultz sees the Obama 36% approval !!

Schultz has proven to be a liar in the past and has no credibility. With his creative editing of comments of some on the right, he is a complete joke but then again he is on MSNBC.

Especially going into the election season, I am gonna keep an eye on Ed Schultz and his Boyfriend Chrissie.If you guys ever watch them time to time,you can't help but take notice that they never bring up any of the current white house scandals, both praise what Obama wants to do,yet neither ever tells the audience about the 14 Trillion Dollar debt,10% Unemployment,and the fact that WE DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO IMPLEMENT What Obama wants to do!!!

Perhaps Ed needs to figure out who has control of our government.

 

[mskafka]

If there has to be blame, the finger should be pointed at us. Most of us made a choice. We want to pay our bills faster, online. Most of us use fedex, ups, etc...for package delivery. I hate to say this, but I think that what has killed the USPS is a lack of innovation; unless they've made some remarkable changes that I'm not aware of.

 

[RunPerryRun]

Ed was making it sound as if the mail is going to stop coming to our mailboxes next year,,,but never mentioned the possibility that the three other carriers could buy out/take over the mail system,and hopefully keep the mailmen working,only difference being the current mailmen will become employers for Fed-Ex,UPS and any of the other couriers. According to ed schultz,,the republicans want to end the USPS and then ITS THE END OF THE WORLD !!!!!!!! time to start digging out fallout shelters!

 

[blastoff]

I listened to Schultz and his guest Katrina vanden Heuvel talking about the USPS on his show the other day, and if someone can enlighten me, and perhaps others, about something I'd appreciate it.

One of the things they discussed was the possibility of eliminating delivery one day a week, presumably Saturday as that's the only day I've read or heard about elsewhere in recent weeks. The two of them repeatedly stated that one less delivery day a week would be "devastating" to rural America. Never having lived in a rural area, I immediately began to wonder why they only singled out rural delivery areas?

Let's say Saturday delivery goes away. As a result, in big cities, suburbs, smaller cities and towns, etc. mail one would normally get on a Saturday would be delivered on Monday instead. Which is exactly what would happen in rural areas. But why would it only be devastating to rural areas and not the other areas? What's so different about postal needs in a rural community?

To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.

Why does the right not pay attention to the constitution on this one?



Why does the post office have to PREFUND its retirement plans?

Do we force UPS to do that?

Do we force Fed Ex to do that?


They would BOTH fold in no time if they had to do that.


The republicans rigged the game to ruin the post office

The consitution has granted them the POWER to do it, it doesn't say they HAVE to do it. MORON. and secondly we the taxpayers aren't forced to pay retirement for FED EX and UPS... if the USPS wan'ts to stay in business then I suggest they fund their own goddamned retirement same as the private sector,, cause when it gets too damn expensive for the taxpayer guess what? we're gonna shut you fuckers down.

being micro-managed by Congress for starters......and of course having to pay 5 billion up front a year sure as hell doesn't help......and shitty middle and upper management....who are pretty pathetic overall.....they waste a lot of money on useless things that dont do anything to help the mail flow.....hinder it more than help....just a bunch of losers trying to justify a not needed position....and there are plenty of them ....

 

[RunPerryRun]

and changing the topic a bit, what makes this story so outlandish(regarding its coming from MSNBC) This was Ed Schultz's lead off story,as if this was the biggest crisis in our Nation! Uhm, what ever happened to Soylandra?Iranian ships headed for Cuba?47 Million on Food Stamps? Iran wants to nuke jews? Ed Never brings up these urgent issues! like i mentioned earlier, I watch the re-runs of Ed and Chris before I go to bed,just to see what they're talking about and comparing it to Rush Limbaugh and Fox News, ITS SO LAUGHABLE! Obama could be getting grilled for money laundering and the MSM would ignore it! {and what if that happens with Solyndra? where did all those millions go?)

Soylandra? That's the new Conservative dog whistle. It was also a loan that was started during the Bush administration. But heck..if you are concerned about government waste..lets have a look.

“I'm amazed … how much we actually waste and how we do things and how we really should be doing it better,” said Sen. Scott Brown, R-Mass. “I haven't quite gotten a good answer as to why we not only have the overruns but, if we have overruns, why there aren't penalties.”

Taxpayers are getting a raw deal, and yet lawmakers seem relatively powerless to do anything about it, Brown said. “If we try to stop a program, then not only do we have to pay a penalty but if we don't, we get sued.”

Brown, relatively a newcomer to the zany world of Pentagon procurement programs, voiced shock and dismay at the latest revelations of wasteful defense spending. A Government Accountability Office report last month documented $402 billion in cost overruns — $125 billion alone from one program, the Joint Strike Fighter.
