Glory Be, Alan Colmes Stumps Ann Coulter

[Jac de Molay]

That is so......very.....wrong....

[GePap]

Couter is a rabid social conservative, little more than a blonde attack dog. Give me a William F. Buckley, or the older Podhoretz anyday over the misfits that ake up the right wing schock guard of today.

That's her?

Bloke in a dress!

dojoboy, i'm like you: fiscally conservative, socially liberal. i do not appreciate hatemongers like ann coulter or michael savage. i do, however, appreciate reasoned and diplomatic pundits, such as krauthammer, hannity, boortz, and sullivan.

there is a difference between that latter group and the groups of people including coulter and savage. the former is willing to think that liberals are misguided and stupid, but basically good.
savage, coulter, and their ilk, think anybody who isn't with them is against them.

Dojo -

I made the journey from liberalism to conservatism and grateful for it.

That was a short trip.

Spencer -

You dont have to be at war to commit treason

You do need an enemy, therefore, you do need a war. So, are we at war with China? Is China the enemy? If you say yes, shouldn't we be arresting all those people who trade with China as well as all the consumers who but Chinese products?

You have to be kidding! Hannity is one of the most obnoxious people on talk TV, and Krauthammer was a primary media player pushing the "crack baby" myth. God only knows how many "crack babies" remained in foster care because this wackjob scared the hell out of people seeking to adopt.

Repressed confusion about one's sexual identity is a terrible thing.

i didn't say i particularly liked hannity. i don't have that much respect for him, either, since he drools over coulter as if she's some amazing wonder woman. his radio show (haven't seen his tv) is passable; he doesn't spew hate, nor is he particularly aggressive on the air, unlike O'Reilly.
Krauthammer, outside of the "crack baby" thing, I've found I agree with slightly more often; particularly his opinions about space travel, for whatever that's worth.

Simply, I veiw her existence as a necessary evil to counteract her liberal equivalent (pick one).

Who among "liberal" American political comentators/writers has the equivalent to this: "My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is that he did not go to the New York Times building." :???:

Apparently, terrorism and mass murder are only regrettable if they fail to target those you don't like.

Rather than justifying one moronic (she's a mediocre writer at best, bad at worst) ideologue on the basis of another, it would probably be more productive for everyone if the idiot fringe were shunned in favor of those who can concisely and rationally advocate their positions. Coulter will never amount to being a pimple on the ass of someone like Buckley, for one example.

But, I'd gather her point is that emotional issues w/ absence of rational thought = bad policies . Using generalizations to make a point, I'd guess.

Good thing she's not in a policy making position, because emotion with the absense of rational thought is Coulter's forte.

"Good thing she's not in a policy making position, because emotion with the absense of rational thought is Coulter's forte."

Michael - I thought you knew???

The great Apolyton scientists, by method of advanced adam's apple location, have proven that Coulter is a man, and thus is not subject to rule of emotions, as he brilliantly showed by advocating the demolition of the New York Times building.

[The Templar]

You know, if Ann practiced what she preached, she should shut the **** up, put on an apron and cook her husband a nice dinner in the kitchen (while barefoot and pregnant).

[Dis]

hmm this makes sense

people would be more wililing to listen to a blonde woman conservative than an old white guy conservative.

You gotta admit- conservatives are smart peeople.

so you have a guy do some sort of sex change- or maybe he's just a crossdresser- or whatever those freaks like to be called now days. and being a woman is a better way to sell more books and get more people to listen.

[monkspider]

I have to admit, all the Coulterites coming out of the woodwork for this thread cracked me up.

[Dis]

I don't get it either. There are much better conservatives out there.

She's a nut.

Sheesz, no one in their right mind would believe she meant this. That would be like trying to sue a comedian for slander. Very little posted here against Coulter exhibits rationale thinking. Her only crime is she is a female who doesn't tow the liberal-line. Conservative-minorities scare the hell out of liberals because it shows all minorities to think for themselves.
