Starting next Monday, Ed Schultz will be returning to MSNBC in the 5 PM slot, shoving aside Chris Matthews and reducing his time to just the one show at 7 PM. Schultz has been relegated to a 5 to 7 PM show on Saturdays and Sundays. Schultz, known for being controversial and blustery, will probably come back with a roar.
Meanwhile, is Chris Matthews being sent to the naughty chair or what? Does anyone know the inside scoop?
Jessie Walker: United States of Paranoid
He tells us that conspiracy theories have been around since before the United States was the United States.

I mean, his mom is American, but he was BORN in Canada, he has, OMG, automatic duel Canadian citizenship. He IS a socialist for sure. It simply cannot be denied. Look, the facts cannot be ignored.
Surely, if President Obama is not an American in a “Birthers” eye, Ted Cruz is even more of an imposter! Obama was born to an American mother but Kenyan father in Hawaii. O.K., so he didn’t have dual Kenyan citizenship, but hey, does that really matter? Standards are standards right!
