MSNBC
MSNBC host Ed Schultz had an unquestionably rough night after Gov. Scott Walker’s recall election victory Tuesday. Luckily for Schultz, he has a special “stress secret” for staying healthy: He gets a physical “every 90 days.”
“I have to because of my job,” Schultz told Men’s Health in an interview published Monday. “I go to the doctor four times a year.”
Schultz said that “three hours of radio and one hour of TV everyday makes for a lot of 12-hour days. That’s a lot of stress.”
The prime source of that stress? He faces, on a daily basis, “people who are deliberately trying to push [his] buttons.”
“A lot of broadcasters die in their 60s,” Schultz said. “I can’t even get disability insurance because of my occupation. So my goal is to live into my 70s. I’m 58. Managing stress, managing emotion in a high-pressure environment, is the key.”
He said he looks forward to getting the numbers from his quarterly physicals.
“If you do that, you know where you are,” Schultz said. Are you improving? Are you static? Do you have to make adjustments? And that’s what they are: adjustments. Not grand, sweeping lifestyle changes. Just adjustments. You’ll feel better.”

Posted on June 11, 2012 at 3:14pmHe calls conservative women sluts, then wonders why he gets blowback, then streesed out. What a frigging DOPE. HE is the CAUSE of his problems and NO ONE else. PROGS will NEVER recognize this though, as they are not in control of themselves. Their INNSR spirit DEMONS are!

Posted on June 10, 2012 at 11:48pmHis physical probably includes an industrial strength physic (as in enima). He needs to get all the stink out of his system. However, if he wanted to do it up right he’d just flush himself down the toilet, one capable of handling a huge load like himself. He’d be in crap heaven if he did, swimming around with all the other sewage at the sewage treatment facility plus he’d could visit with other like minded friends such as Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, and other stinky liberals and liberal sympathizers, the list is endless

Posted on June 10, 2012 at 3:54pmNo wonder he is stressed. He only gets some love 4 times each year. Not sure why he requests the whole fist for the test though. Must be because he is so used to having his head so far up there the finger won’t work.

Posted on June 10, 2012 at 3:47pmPoor Eddie, that recall election took to much out of ya? What a blow hard. Wassy Schultz and Eddie make a good pair. Stick in Madcow and Nappy Sharppee and its no wonder he needs a physical every 90 days. All that BS running around would get anyone stressed out. Page 999 of BARRY CARE is strickley for PMSNBC employees.

Posted on June 10, 2012 at 5:04pmSpeaking of which, you think maybe that “mens health” mag only asked for the interview with the no-name blowhard because even they were so certain that Walker was going to be recalled and thought he would be more well known by Tues night after being hailed as the ‘hero who knew’? The man that never lost faith in the unions and carried their water endlessly for the last year and a half.
Yeah, guess that backfired. In the end, he and his kind will always be on the wrong side of history.

Posted on June 10, 2012 at 3:36pmEd, try standing in front of a full length mirror with your clothes off. Do you see an overweight, flabby man in front of you? Exercise and a balanced diet would be better than getting a checkup four times a year to see how close you are to dying. Don’t you think?
