O'Reilly Rips Coulter

[Q Classic]

it occurs to me that maybe i'm reading too much into those five paragraphs.

then i think about the large number of other americans (who happened to be of asian descent) got their knickers in a twist over that column independently, and i feel much more sure of my conclusions.

Hell, just look at how Coulter went after Max Cleland. Anyone who wants to stand with her over that goes into the "immoral" entry in my book. Not to mention her call for physical violence against "college liberals."

Q^3 - have you ever heard of capital letters?

[Q Classic]

in the column i've been quoting from, she did lament the fact that norman mineta hadn't been killed.

i've heard of capital letters. i think they're somewhat frivolous unless used for Emphasis.

[Stefu]

I STILL have yet to see Ms. Coulter's little golden monkey she surely must possess. She truly is keeping it well hidden.

There is a difference between being a conservative and being an idiot.

I knew that you would get it

Zealots are IMO fools by nature, and even worse hold the fool as an ideal. Zealotry stunts intellectual advancement by locking into a position without questioning it and without being willing to change or adapt regardless of the benefits offered through that change.

Exactly.

I'll say! Jesus...

asian americans are, after all, the model minority.

Don't be so full of yourself. Mexicans work harder than you. Indians (dot, not feathers) are better at math and can actually pronounce the letter 'r'. As such, it is clear that half-Mexican, half-Indians are the perfect minority. If only we could all be so lucky as to live in a country filled with people like Jorge Parmar.

i don't think i am. sorry, but when i come to the same conclusion independently from so many others, and they get the same feeling as well, in a society that doesn't see a problem with emasculating the asian male and fetishizing the asian female...

it seems to me that you didn't get that the line was dripping with sarcasm there. is a absolutely necessary when trying to be sarcastic?
besides, last time i checked, .indians were asians as well, and therefore indian americans, by extension, would be asian americans...

in any case, why are you taking such issue with this? have i somehow disturbed a little sacred cow of yours somewhere without realizing it?

It's odd that you should be complaining about this (which isn't true, BTW) whilst missing the blatantly facetious tone in which I delivered the line you quoted...

The term "Asian" most commonly refers to East Asians. South Asians usually aren't placed in the same racial group as East Asian, as you should know.

I have no sacred cow, outside of the Nebraska Cornhuskers.

Coulter is patently delusional. O'Reilly is simply nakedly self-serving.

You know, the aforementioned Hitler impressed a lot of people with the imagery in his writings and speeches, too.

Guynemer:

Well, that didn't take long to Godwin.

Just because she's a good writer, doesn't mean she's Hitler.

[Ben Kenobi]

stunning, yes. what's even more stunning is that she hasn't had to retract it, not for want of action on the part of concerned asian american groups, but because nobody who isn't asian american seems to give a damn.

QCubed:

If they don't care, why do you?

Maybe they think she's spot on.

The British generally mean South Asians when they mention Asians. Just saying...
