O'Reilly Rips Coulter

[Ben Kenobi]

she's a fascist and a nutbag... I guess I understand why BK likes her.

I suppose this is a case where opposites attract.

[Ben Kenobi]

How well did the Japanese treat the Koreans and other Chinese?

To say that there is unity among 'asians' ignores the fact that they have treated each other far worse than the Americans and Canadians have treated the Asians. It doesn't excuse the US and Canada but to accuse the one of racism and not the other, ignores history.

[MrFun]

duh, BK -- many Japanese were racist during World War II just like many Americans were racist during World War II



So why bring up that non-issue?

[GePap]

Coulter is a shrill harpy who constantly obliterates any fleeting decent idea she has in a tide of demogogery and bile unequaled by any other columnist save Michael Savage.

She is an embarrasment to Right-wing thought.

It's not a non-issue for QCubed, to whom I directed the response.

[MrFun]

Yeah -- I've known that for quite some time too, GePap.

She is an embarrasment to Right-wing thought.

That raises an interesting question, Gepap.

Who is your favourite right-wing thinker?

William Kristol, W.F. Buckley, Krauthammer, George Will all are conservatives and exponentially better than Coulter.

[Ben Kenobi]

Will, I have heard of.

The rest I have not.

William Kristol is editor of the influential Washington-based political magazine, The Weekly Standard. Widely recognized as one of the nation's leading political analysts and commentators, Mr. Kristol regularly appears on Fox News Sunday and on the Fox News Channel.

Before starting The Weekly Standard in 1995, Mr. Kristol led the Project for the Republican Future, where he helped shape the strategy that produced the 1994 Republican congressional victory. Prior to that, Mr. Kristol served as chief of staff to Vice President Dan Quayle during the Bush administration and to Secretary of Education William Bennett under President Reagan. Before coming to Washington in 1985, Mr. Kristol taught politics at the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard's Kennedy School of Government.

Edit:

Now that I think about it, I have heard about Buckley. I'm surprised you like him, especially when he quotes G.K. Chesterson, or makes statements like this.

"American conservatives never exclude those who discountenance transcendent perspectives, but we tend to live by them."

I see why you like Krauthammer, though.

Same ol' Anti-semitism of the Passion of the Christ. He forgets that the Jews were not the one scourging, but the Romans. Why is it okay for Gibson to depict the Romans scourging for 10 minutes?

[Berzerker]

Krauthammer is a scumbag, I remember when he was declaring that "crack"babies would form an underclass of criminals, a subculture of deviants who would prey on the rest of us. And he's a Jew who must certainly be aware of how that terminology was used against Jews. God only knows how many crackbabies went unadopted because people like him were scaring people away with predictions of doom and gloom. And where has he been as his predictions have proven to be bogus? Nowhere! No retractions, no apologies to all those slandered, nada.

[GePap]

Of that lost Krauthammer is the least liked-he is not in the same class as Krystal or Will, or Buckley, but he is still better than Coulter.

What is rich is Kenobi, who likes this insane ***** insinuating I am anti-semitic (that self hating Jew Krauthammer)...Ben, newsflash-when it comes to creative bigotry, you have a special place here in Poly.

[Lawrence of Arabia]

my favorite right wing thinker would be bush, but since he cant think, I guess he's disqualified.

[Ben Kenobi]

Gepap:

Sorry, if I was not clear.

This is the article I was reading of Krauthammer.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A31980-2004Mar4.html

It's a trope that the Passion is anti-semitic.

I'm not saying anything about YOU being anti-semitic, nor Krauthammer.

[Drake Tungsten]

What does that have to with zee/zed?

Only mongoloids say 'zed'. There's your connection.

[KrazyHorse]

That's it. I claim Baltimore in the name of Her Majesty the Queen!
