In her new book, “Godless,” right-wing pundit Ann Coulter writes of the 9/11 widows:
These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzies. I have never seen people enjoying their husbands’ death so much.
She was confronted about the statement this morning by NBC’s Matt Lauer. Coulter accused Lauer of “getting testy.” Watch it:
Full Transcript:
LAUER: Do you believe everything in the book or do you put some things in there just to cater to your base?
ANN: No, of course I believe everything.
LAUER: On the 9-11 widows, an in particular a group that had been critical of the administration: “These self-obsessed women seem genuinely unaware that 9-11 was an attack on our nation and acted like as if the terrorist attack only happened to them. They believe the entire country was required to marinate in their exquisite personal agony. Apparently, denouncing bush was part of the closure process.” And this part is the part I really need to talk to you about: “These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by griefparrazies. I have never seen people enjoying their husband’s death so much.” Because they dare to speak out?
COULTER: To speak out using the fact they are widows. This is the left’s doctrine of infallibility. If they have a point to make about the 9-11 commission, about how to fight the war on terrorism, how about sending in somebody we are allowed to respond to. No. No. No. We have to respond to someone who had a family member die. Because then if we respond, oh you are questioning their authenticity.
LAUER: So grieve but grieve quietly?
COULTER: No, the story is an attack on the nation. That requires a foreign policy response.
LAUER: By the way, they also criticized the Clinton administration.
COULTER: Not the ones I am talking about. No, no, no.
LAUER: Yeah they have.
COULTER: Oh no, no, no, no, no. They were cutting commercials for Kerry. They were using their grief to make a political point while preventing anyone from responding.
LAUER: So if you lose a husband, you no longer have the right to have a political point of view?
COULTER: No, but don’t use the fact that you lost a husband as the basis for being able to talk about, while preventing people from responding. Let Matt Lauer make the point. Let Bill Clinton make the point. Don’t put up someone I am not allowed to respond to without questioning the authenticity of their grief.
LAUER: Well apparently you are allowed to respond to them.
COULTER: Yeah, I did.
LAUER: So, in other words.
COULTER: That is the point of liberal infallibility. Of putting up Cindy Sheehan, of putting out these widows, of putting out Joe Wilson. No, no, no. You can’t respond. It’s their doctrine of infallibility. Have someone else make the argument then.
LAUER: What I’m saying is I don’t think they have ever told you, you can’t respond.
COULTER: Look, you are getting testy with me.
LAUER: No. I think it’s a dramatic statement. “These broads are millionaires stalked by stalked by grief-parazzies”? “I have never seen people enjoying their husband’s deaths so much”?
COULTER: Yes, they are all over the news.
LAUER: The book is called “Godless: The Church of Liberalism.” Ann Coulter, always fun to have you here.
she's screwing up america more than all the 100 people bernie goldberg wrote about.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:45 amI wish Ann Coulter was on the morning shows every morning, what a shell of a human being.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:46 amMy what a huge Adam's apple. One would think of AIS.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:49 am[...] Now, Think Progress has a transcript of Coulter & Lauer discussing how the media uses 9/11 widows as experts, but doesn’t allow conservatives to respond. Their title - “Coulter on 9/11 Widows: ‘I Have Never Seen People Enjoying their Husbands’ Death So Much’” [...]
June 6th, 2006 at 9:51 amCoulter is showing signs of cracking.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:52 amKatie's gone so Matt has a new set of Cajone's....Awesome!!!
man coulter... not worth using the energy to type about...
June 6th, 2006 at 9:53 am"no no no no no no no no no no no no, wait, what was I talking about? oh yeah: no no no no no no no no liberal infallibility no no no no no...."
When is she going to be on The Daily show?
June 6th, 2006 at 9:53 amI doubt that she even believes the crap she spews. By being outrageous she sells books. That is all she cares about. After all its all about her.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:53 amShe'e mentally ill and so are the people who give her air time.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:55 amYep it's all about money and as sad as it is people pony up $20 once a year to buy her new book. But ignorant people buy a lot of books, the Left Behind series comes to mind.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:00 ami can just see jon stewart vomit on her infront of everybody... he he he
June 6th, 2006 at 10:02 amThis scum bag gets $30,000 for her appearences. Think she'd get that kind of money if she was anything approaching thoughtful and a non arsehole?
Like the fat Oxy cotin addict there is never too low these scum bags can go..... and it pays so well.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:03 ami am no longer surprised by anything ann coulter says. her evil character is highly predictalble. but lauer's final "ann coulter always fun to have you here" was outrageous.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:04 amMatt let her off easy. Everything the woman writes is one gigantic ad hominem attack. Someone needs to remind the viewing audience that it’s a logical fallacy, in addition to being pretty despicable.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:04 amSo Ann Coulter's argument is that she can make political points off of 9/11 because her nation was attacked, but people who "only" lost spouses in the attack are politicizing their grief. Oh, and "these broads are millionaires"? How much has Coulter made off of the country's emotional response to 9/11?
June 6th, 2006 at 10:05 amIs my memory failing me or was her first book a guide to dating in Washington? I'm glad that's she's moved on to making meaningful contributions to society now....../sarcasm
June 6th, 2006 at 10:05 amThis is not news. Why does the MSM and blogs not have the sense to put people like this on ignore? She is making $$$ by filling time with nonsense that isn't worth any time and definitely not worth a penny.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:05 am#11 Vomitting was the first thing I thought of when I saw her ragged mug.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:06 amDear Ann Coulter
Please kill yourself. Now.
Sincerely,
June 6th, 2006 at 10:06 amThe World
Ann Coulter is a man:
http://www.smirkingchimp.com/viewtopic.php?topic=54203&forum=4
Take a look at this pic and judge for yourself.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:06 amShe serves a purpose in being so over-the-top extreme. She makes the extreme right wing look more moderate, so they can function more easily without being called out. She functions as a clown to make the real clowns look better.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:06 amShe believes every word. Ann is pissed that the 9/11 widows can't be attacked in the same way that others critical of this administration are attacked. She and anyone else who wants to swift boat the widows can't do it without looking like asses. They would rather someone that is open to attack from the right be the ones out front on this issue. That is the complaint. Read her words carefully. Jeez, I thought progressives were supposed to be the whiners. LMAO
June 6th, 2006 at 10:07 amOne of her nutbag friends should tell the skank to get a new dress.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:07 amWas she asked about her possible upcoming felony conviction for voter fraud?
June 6th, 2006 at 10:08 amI agree with comment #9, the woman is clearly mentally ill. I can't imagine even Republicans take her seriously. If someone capped her parents I wonder if she would be will to suffer silently.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:08 amShe should be forced to meet with the 911 widows (and widowers) face to face. Then she should be sent to Iraq for 6 tours of duty.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:10 amShe should be forced to meet with the 911 widows (and widowers) face to face. Then she should face the survivors of Fallujah . . .
June 6th, 2006 at 10:11 amBut her book isn't selling. At all. I think I heard that only she and her family have purchased copies. Hard to believe that she and Bill Mahar used to be an item.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:11 amThis broad is CRAZY!
June 6th, 2006 at 10:12 amJust had a flash of Kristin Bratweiler kicking the crap out of her...
What a day for a daydream.
50 Ways To Dump The Dubya
June 6th, 2006 at 10:14 amMy what a huge Adam’s apple. One would think of AIS.
Comment by yankeluh — June 6, 2006
Of course "she" has a large adams apple. When you have the "operation" getting your masculine larinyx shaved down is an elective surgery that is quite expensive.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:17 amWhat a f'in idiot. Coulter never ceases to shock me with the crap-etoric she spouts.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:18 amConvenient of her to forget that there were some conservative 9/11 widows doing the same thing as the liberal ones. Frankly, its hard to imagine a more disgusting statement from a conservative, but I'm sure she'll figure out a way to top this one.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:18 amWhat we need is a media that understands that there is a visual story to show, the shocking sight of these cynical leaders, like Coulter, showing them in the back rooms (that occur between their ‘Glory moments’ in front of the TV cameras) when back stage they have their addiction fits where they’re “jonesing†for their next fix of meanness and greed.
That’s what we need to convince the media to show. The true tawdry underbelly of this destructive movement.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:18 amwhy does the today show legitimize her?
June 6th, 2006 at 10:19 amThe entire premise of Ann's argument is that which is the foundation of the Swiftboat Veterans for Truth...and yet, something tells me she's a big fan of them.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:19 amNo one benefitted more from 9/11 than the PNAC cabal. And the pre-knowledge for the attacks were there. Atleast 11 countries warned, including the taliban and in the recent Moussaoui trial a FBI agent admitted that the plans were known for years.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:20 amBut she might infact be unaware since she had no one who Lewis Libby was. Idiot. Phoney cherry pick parts from the bible fool. Thou make mockery of thy religion.
God bless the Jersey Girls...atleast they were part to start the 9/11 whitewash commission.
So, I guess this is that "compassionate conservativism" I've been hearing so much about.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:21 amThe direct families of 9/11 victims received VARIED COMPENSATION. The 'formula' was based on lost future earnings which lead to the families of investment bankers, brokers, etc getting much larger 'payouts' than the families of a janitor, secretary, etc.
That was one of the rather large 'injustices' of the federal insurance program that was specifically designed to keep airlines from being sued by relatives (the fed insurance payouts were their only real recourse).
So...not all 9/11 widows are 'equal' in wealth.
Ann also apparently has trouble recognizing that people can and do buy insurance with million dollar payouts. I know I am insured for 1 million as long and as long as I don't kill myself my family will get the money to help them to live on until they can move on.
9/11 was facilitated by the incompetence of the federal government coupled with airline responsibility for security. To suggest that they should not have received compensation for an event that should never have happened is obscene.
Oh, and Ann - if and when your new home (in the precinct you should have registered in) gets blown over by a hurricane I'm sure you'll feel 'entitled' to the federal disaster benefits that essentially allow people (rich people) to live in areas that are not insurable privately.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:24 amI really think the best way of dealing with Ann Coulter is to ignore her. By continually discussing her we give her a certain amount of credibility. In my opinion she's just a stupid blowhard who desparately wants to be famous. She purposely says things like this to get attention -- and her hate-filled followers just lap it up. If we pretend she doesn't exist we can diminish whatever stature she has. I'm sure Ann Coulter would hate nothing more than to be ignored.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:25 amThis douchebag has no business being on national TV promoting anything. Full stop.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:25 amCoulter is a sick and evil male drag queen who should be given a prison term for fomenting hatred and bigotry!
June 6th, 2006 at 10:26 amMake it stop...it burns, it burns!!
June 6th, 2006 at 10:26 amTro. Glo. Dyte.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:28 amWho does this Ann Coulter guy think he is, anyway? If Ann Coulter didn't want people to think "she" was a "he", then maybe "she" should get a different e-mail address than tom@anncoulter.com.
If all these TV shows would stop having her come on, no matter how stupid or controversial the things she says are, then maybe she could go away and never be heard from again (which could only be good for the world.)
June 6th, 2006 at 10:31 amI saw her in walmart yesterday buying all of her books.
Oh yeah, in case you aren't paying attention, the war in Iraq is lost. The best hope is to get out while the gettin' is good. George Bush had better act fast.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:31 amThe premise upon which her whole book is based upon is a fallacy. There are LOTS of people of faith who are LIBERALS. I guess she considers Jesus "Godless" since he was a liberal???
June 6th, 2006 at 10:33 am"Anne, you ignorant slut..."
June 6th, 2006 at 10:33 amI am very sorry, I dislike this woman very much, the things she says are always flippaant it seems and now its so sad to hear her complain about not being heard as pens a book, is the darling of Fox news genre? She is very disingenuos at the least and not a very good role model for women at all.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:34 amGood job matt till he got to the tham\nks part at the end, she isnt fun, shes not informative, and not a very nice person at all.
Freekin right wing political hacks just cant figure out why 51% of Americans dont oppose gay marriage and 30% of Americans dislike the President (Jay Leno) as persons like coulter run their mouthds in such a manner, I suppose next she will desecrate funerals of returning casualties from Iraq/Afghanistan because it is an example of the griveing she holds in contmept?
enough said

she's a man, baby. ah crikey... schizophrenic
June 6th, 2006 at 10:35 amThis douchebag has no business being on national TV promoting anything. Full stop.
I second Dr. Sinker's emotion.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:35 amAnn for prezdint!
Who better can finish the work of our Fearaless Leader Little Bush.
The complete distruction of the United States of America.
She does make one want to spit up doesn't she?
Icky
June 6th, 2006 at 10:37 amThe minute I heard that Coulter was going to be on the Today show this morning I reached for the remote control. Why would anyone want to start their day by listening to that viscious hate-monger. She laughs all the way to the bank as she destroys whatever little of civic discourse is left in this country.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:41 amIf only Anne would stop living in sin, whoring around, she may one day have a husband to mourn herself.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:43 amShe truly is the face of the Repub Party....she bascially says all the Politcally Incorrect crap the politicians and other "respectable" Con pundits cant say...what a dispicable human being...
So the 9/11 widows need to shut up because why???
I would love to see her debate Kristen Brewsmeister about the failures of this admin in the months leading up to 9-11 and the aftermath since 9-11
anyway...
Over at the swamp (Yahoo message boards) there is a story about the 9 severed heads found in a box in Iraq.....tragic.....
Because they have nothing else to crow about...all the CONS over there are raving that Ann's book is #1...whoopee....however...upon further inspection its not that hard to have the #1 book when sites like this :
http://www.conservativebookclub.com/DefaultJoin.asp?
SELL THE BOOK FOR A DOLLAR!!!!
June 6th, 2006 at 10:47 amI had to watch the whole thing this morning in a mirror, so I wouldn't immediately turn to stone. Or is it a pillar of salt? I keeps gettin' mah mythology and bibology references mixed up...
June 6th, 2006 at 10:50 amAnn Coulter reminds me of a crack whore I used to know. Except I felt sympathy for the crack whore. And the crack whore was a woman.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:51 amCoulter is showing signs of cracking.
I think that was just her make-up. Annie the trannie isn't at her best at 7am: she looked as rough as a badger's backside this morning, and was not up to full trolling speed.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:51 amDear Ann,
Two questions -
First, how does it feel to be about to lose your right to vote as an American citizen?
Second, what kind of cheese goes with that whine?
(BTW, loved the articles about you on Bradblog)
June 6th, 2006 at 10:52 amI have to give Matt Lauer props, as I have been a critic of his past interviews....He exposed Coulter as clearly insane or a shameless panderer to sell books...Did you watch Kathy Griffin later.."What's with having that nutbag Ann Coulter on...Why was she wearing a cocktail dress for a morning show...I think she just makes stuff up..."
June 6th, 2006 at 10:53 amThe sad thing is that we are even discussing this. It's even sadder that she is given air time. Where is her radical left counterpart in the MSM? Michael Moore pales in comparison. Daily we are inundated with neo-fascist propaganda- and yet all we do is complain about it on blogs.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:53 amShe looks like a hooker.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:55 amFrankly, its hard to imagine a more disgusting statement from a conservative, but I’m sure she’ll figure out a way to top this one.
Comment by Hit_Escape — June 6, 2006 @ 10:18 am
She is NOT a real conservative, you do realize. She simply masquerades as being conservative or republican, or whatever...in reality though, she is just a nasty excuse for a human being, and panders to the same. They just always seem to yell the loudest. That's all.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:59 amShe embarrasses herself and anyone with whom she claims allegiance every time she speaks. I've never heard someone spew such unexamined (and easily refuted) arguments so chronically.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:59 am#62 - I HOPE someone posts a video of Kathy Griffin's response. That sounds hilarious.
I'd LOVE to see Kathy Griffin and Ann Coulter in a cage match. Kathy would tear Ann a new one (and be funny while doing it).
June 6th, 2006 at 10:59 amSo, what she is saying that only shinny, happy people can complain about what has happened in the country. People who grieves, who works in 3 places just to pay the rent, who has lost relatives in the war...well, that´s life. What a really piece of garbage.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:00 amI think she is just entertaining like a sad clown. Who reads her crap nazi propaganda anyway.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:00 amI'm glad she clarified that only the 9/11 widows who disagree with her need to shut up. The rest can talk with authority.
Rather than not being allowed to respond, I think what she meant is she is not allowed to respond without looking like a heartless bloodthirsty fascist whore. She would look good in a Nazi uniform and whip presiding over one of the many domestic internment camps her fellow conservatives are pushing for.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:01 amAnn Coulter rejoices in venom and poison. It would be an interesting case to study for those who study the mysteries of the mind.
Me thinks that Ann Coulter always attacks when what she may deem the "infallibility" of George Bush and his PNAC friends is questioned.
She always speaks like an irascible lieutenant in love with his general!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:03 amWhy would they even have her on? I mean, why not have a Klan leader on? She's not a serious political commentator or analyst. She's just a hate monger. The wingnuts have taken politics into the gutter, and the corporate media has followed them right down into it.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:03 amAnn Coulter calling herself Tom for his emails is very revealing of who he actually is in reality!
A drag queen association located in Key West, Florida, claims convincingly that Ann Coulter was one of their male drag queens who got a sex change operation in Denmark several years ago! I forget what his queen name was in Key West, but his real first name is Tom! The press should be investigating his real identity instead of allowing him to spew hatred on FOX News!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:04 amLiberals DO have a doctrine of infallibility. It's called fact.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:04 am64. She is a hooker. Instead of selling her body, she's selling her hate to angry, lonely guys who have Fox News in their lives and little else.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:04 amGladly, I missed this morning's show, but I would have loved to hear Kathy Griffin trash that hebitch Coulter. Kathy deserves to be on the A list.
If I ever met Mann Coulter at a party and there was a pool nearby, I'd push her sorry ass in that pool and jet out of there.
God, I hope Olbermann kicks her ass tonight.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:05 amI am really dumbfounded by how low TV has sunk. Jawdropping.
MATT LAUER: Always FUN to have you with us, Ann. Now we welcome Adolf Hilter, to talk about how much fun is to rip the skin off people while they're still alive...
June 6th, 2006 at 11:06 amCoulter is pure white trash in the form of an X-File alien/human hybrid lab experiment gone bad (don't they always.). She's plain creepy.

June 6th, 2006 at 11:06 amOkay, its not very good but it came to me in a flash.
Comment by Bruce Gorton
To Bruce,
June 6th, 2006 at 11:06 amNot bad at all.
During the height of the Monica Lewinsky scandal, I once heard a version of this song called "That's why (illicit tape recorder) Linda is a Tripp," but I don't remember most of the lines, but it amused me at the time.
Did dumbass Lauer ask her about her impending indictment for voter fraud?
Didn't think so.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:08 amAnn Coulter can be filed under the subset of human excrement.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:09 amAnn Coulter is finally someone brave enough to stick up for the right wing in our country.
Why, in this country there are people who get on TV and in newspapers who only agree 90% with the lunatic right wing.
If we were truly good Americans and interested in good, patriotic debate, we would make sure that 100% of all commentators and 100% of every word which came out of their mouths would be 100% far right wing.
Only then, with 100% right wing spin all the time would we have true intellectual debate.
Because otherwise someone might disagree with the ultra right wing, and then that really hurts them, and some of them cry, and it really embarasses them when they cry.
You don't want to make the lunatic right wingers cry, do you?
June 6th, 2006 at 11:10 amSo, first they were using their grief to make a political point, but at the same time, they were enjoying their husband's death so much. She was not allowed to respond? WTF?!? You can't shut her up! She was simply frustrated because she knew how scummy she would look to everyone, if she were to rip their throats out, like she wanted to. But that was self-preservation, not respect for these women. I am sorry to be so crude here, but she is SUCH A GASH!!!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:11 amJeez, you would think Mann Coulter could afford to have her Adam's Apple shaved.
It's elective cosmetic surgery and she would have to pay for it herself, but she can afford it.
It is still plainly visible in the photo above.
Mann Coulter is the perfect spokesho hypocrite for the religious right's moral values...she's a transsexual and she sleeps around.
If you want to talk about a godless person, thats Mann Coulter.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:11 amAnn Coulter is either a very devious, liberal performance artist or mentally ill.
There is no middle ground.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:15 amIt was such a beautiful morning until I logged on here and saw that screen grab. You had to go and spoil it, didn't you? Now I have to mop up all this puke.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:16 amI see her hysterical-white-female-pundit membership is still active. She must be paying in advance. Matt didnt have to say anything really, she would've went on with her rant regardless. Classless, tasteless, and heartless.
Sincerely,
A WTC "Broad"
June 6th, 2006 at 11:16 amIf anyone on here has ever seen a drag queen show before, then you would realize that Ann Coulter really is a guy who takes male hormone shots and had breast implant surgery! Drag queens are very confused about their sexuality because they believe they are females trapped inside a male body! Everyone I have ever seen on stage had nasty mouths who spewed hatred just like Ann Coulter! One I saw in Jacksonville, Florida, looked 100% female > some even have their penis removed! Ann Coulter is NOT a real female!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:17 amtakes female hormone shots I mean lol
June 6th, 2006 at 11:20 amShe's an f'ing lunitic. Would someone just please put her on a barren island somewhere and leave her there?
June 6th, 2006 at 11:25 amBut, please, see her face. She is the saddest person in the world. I just feel pity for her.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:26 amNo, no,no,no,no, It can't be! Naw, it's impossible...but for a minute there I thought she/it was Skeletor's wife! She must be one of those alien cross-breeds on crack cocaine!Ha!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:26 amCoulter reminds me of the shit demon on the movie Dogma.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:28 am#62 - ...Kathy Griffin later..â€What’s with having that nutbag Ann Coulter on…Why was she wearing a cocktail dress for a morning show…I think she just makes stuff up…â€
Comment by Oleary25 — June 6, 2006 @ 10:53 am
because she hadn't been home from the night before yet...?
i too, hope someone gets a video of griffin's remarks - that was rich...
June 6th, 2006 at 11:29 am#91 - Juan C, she lures you in with your pity, then she rips off your head and spits down your neck.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:29 amAnn's begging for a lawsuit with books like that. The only language a neocon understands is money, so suing her would be the only way to get through. Those 9/11 widows need a good lawyer, they are being defamed.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:30 amMakes you wonder why, all of a sudden, she is bringing them up - maybe a little sunshine is about to fall on the whitewash?
We all complain a lot to each other - does anyone know if there is an Ann Coulter Hate Club site, where we could all reigister our disgust and have it sent to the shows that give her air time?
wake up, republicans! This is your God, whose vomitus you praise and buy like sheep!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:31 amhappy now?
Mission accomplished, right?
Freedom©, right?
# 88- Jay, I think you are confusing Transgender with Transvestite. There is a huge difference between the two.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:32 amIt is really sickening that Ann Coulter mentions those who lost their dears in 9/11, considering how she serves people who cynically exploited the grief of 9/11 to gain support and carry out their plans of power, profit, death and destruction (while fat multinationals and cronies made money on war), deceiving and lying to people.
They used 9/11 as a huge photo-op to justify PNAC long-planned wars and deliriums of power. It's even disgusting they mention 9/11. They don't have any moral right.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:32 amShe is so beyond done, it's not even funny. She's is an evil, I would use human being, but that doesn't even apply here. She's done. Her, O'Reilly, Hannity, Limbaugh, etc., are now the most hated in the country, only second to George Bush, and the entire Republican Party. They've lost their minds, and now, they are going to such extreme lengths to get attention. Seriously, after seeing this, if anyone buys this book, they deserve the backlash they get. This is pathetic. I also saw a promo for Tucker Carlson having Coulter on. He's another wimp who's on his last leg. Jon Stewart ripped him off the air, and put the little bow tie freak in his place. The Right is going to be paying for this time in our history for decades to come, and it's all on tape and all over the internet. Coulter needs a straight jacket.

June 6th, 2006 at 11:34 amThe ones who are really to blame for Coulter's remarks are the networks that give her a free ride. They're the ones responsible for the destruction she causes.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:35 am#95. Probably, just like all right-wingers, who just hate and live with fear of hoards of communists taking their plasma TVs and HUmmers to spread the wealth. I feel just pity for them. (Well, aside from this buddhist attitude, sometimes I really want to smack them)
June 6th, 2006 at 11:36 amMatt Lauer is a pretty boy. He just caved in the last exchange, after she called him testy. "Anne Coulter. always fun to have you here."????
June 6th, 2006 at 11:36 amPost 98 most drag queens are males who dress up as females > they do not have both sexual parts at birth! I am not referring to those who are born male and female! Ann Coulter was once 100% male, but now he/her is a created female!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:37 amShe (He) is not worth the effort, but what is this doctrine of infallibility? Did it not take six years for the Prez to admit just one mistake and the best he could come up with is he talked too tough to the terrorist!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:37 amThe ones who are really to blame are the propagandist networks that give her a free ride. They're ultimately responsible for any destruction she causes.

June 6th, 2006 at 11:42 amOkay, so is Mann Coulter a transvestite or a transsexual?
Either way, she is one sick puppy.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:43 amWhat gives the widows the right to grieve, anyway? Capitalizing on 9/11, shame on them! 9/11 belongs to Bush -- he should sue them for copyright violation.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:43 ammr. ed - that was funny, but the green wig photo is definitely photshop - the shading on "her" face is all wrong, even at first glance...
June 6th, 2006 at 11:44 amJay Randal
Nobody knows what sex Ann Coulter was born with. She is an Anti-intellegence, she renders anyone who gets too close to her so stupid that they can't tell the difference. The doctors, who refused to look at her twice because shit naked pundits are the stuff of nightmares, had to decide her sex over a coin toss later on once they had recovered somewhat.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:44 amthat is a man's jawline, the ususal giveaway, along with big feet and an adam's apple.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:44 amThanks post 101 for the facts on the real Ann Coulter > Mr. Jeremy Levinsohn aka as Pudenda Shenanigans the drag queen of Key West, Florida.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:46 amJudd - Did you gain your expertise in headline writing at the National Enquirer? Shame on you - or whoever authorized your misleading "headline". The way you have strung your words, you imply that Ann is referring to ALL the 9/11 widows with her stinging criticism.
I realize why so many of the posters here parrot their irrational hatred of someone they disagree with repeatedly - they could not COMPREHEND the basis of Coulter's criticism (the Democrat "Not-in-our-Name" widows who endorsed an anemic foreign response to 9/11). But another explanation might be dyslexia...or laziness, if your average posters chose not to read the transcript....
June 6th, 2006 at 11:47 amTransvestite = man who likes to dress in womens clothes.
Transsexual = woman trapped in a mans body.
I think Mann Coulter is a transvestite. She hasn't bothered to have her Adam's Apple removed and shes a freaky sex addict. I bet she still has a penis.
Wonder if any of her ex-boy toys, like Bill Maher, will ever speak up on whether they know what Mann Coulter really is. I bet she only gave them blowjobs and they don't know what she's packing in her panties.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:49 amWhy give this piece of human excrement the time of day? Ignore the piece of trash and hopefully it will shrivel up and die from lack of attention that it so desperately seeks!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:49 amWhy give these loony toons so much media attention? If I run around with no pants on saying that all umm.. lets say.... fat...asian... scientists worship satan and eat baby flesh, can I be on TV too?
June 6th, 2006 at 11:49 amPost 114 > some drag queens really dress like that with even a green wig that looks fake in a pic > go to Key West and see a real drag queen show or in Miami!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:50 am#118 - Mighty Teabagger agrees with Anne Coulter that the uppity widows need a spokesmodel.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:52 amWho is she ?? A drag queen ??
June 6th, 2006 at 11:54 amMighty Moron is a drag queen herself so no wonder she is upset by this TP thread > lol.

MAnn Coulter. Think about it.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:55 amCorrection: MA is a drag queen HIMSELF so no wonder HE is upset by this TP thread > lol.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:56 amThis is why I stopped watching the Today Show years ago. Why anyone thinks Ann Coulter deserves this kind of platform is beyond me. I wish the Today Show would just ignore her, like they ignore whackjobs like Fred Phelps. Of course they don't, because they want to stoke the fires of controversy, get people all riled up. And the thing is, people like Ann Coulter and Michelle Malkin and whatnot have built their entire careers on that one thing: getting people riled up. That's really all they are good at doing. I for one am sick of everyone trying to push my buttons all the time. I'm opting out of the agita.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:56 amMaybe Maher slapped his johnson on her forehead a few times than wiped his outboard on the drapes. It really brings out the anger.

yeah i bet hes a teabagger and knows what republican scrotums taste like.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:59 amCoulter needs to brush up on his/her Jesus.Does her/his proclivity for the short skirts say anything about his/her perception of how well she/he is pulling off the sexual deception?
June 6th, 2006 at 11:59 amYes post 126 Coulter was once male anyways > lol. I do not understand why the press is too scared to investigate his background and admit Ann is/was male? If a Democrat was a drag queen the press would be all over it like flies to tackpaper!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:59 amShorter Coulter: People are welcome to respond and have political opinions, so long as they're in support of Dear Cheerleader.
I guess it's hard to talk even her moron fan-base into dropping 25 bucks on that, so she has to lard it with the usual straw-man arguments and projected inferiority complexes. That she's apparently some sort of house intellectual on the MSM just adds to the abuse.
And hey, since we're all about having Christian-approved personal lives now, how's Miss Thang's? No man, so she's celibate, right? Right, dearie? Oh, I sincerely hope so. Every time Ann Coulter pleasures herself, "Pat" Robertson cries, and then bench-presses 1,250 pounds.
June 6th, 2006 at 11:59 amSo Kathy Griffith called her out? Excellent but it would've been even more pleasurable if Janene Garafalo had been sitting beside the Annstein or came immediately afterwards. Or any celebrity gay fashion designer The Suburban Crack Skank Look is soooo 1990's
June 6th, 2006 at 12:03 pmWhat should we expect? Coulter and the right like to co-opt 9/11 like it only happened to them. She somehow thinks that she was a victim of 9/11, unlike the real people who lost their lives. Even more amazing, it happened under a Republican president's watch. Yet somehow, it's the Democrats' fault.
I have a career change suggestion for Ms. Coulter: suicide bomber in Iraq. She can start immediately.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:03 pmThe fact that she is being dignified by all these comments, is repugnant. To be crass, she is an un-appealing piece of shit, both physically and intellectually. She thrives on these reactions, she lives on being provocative, she is addicted to sensationalism. That despicable WO-MAN is laughing all the way to the bank. Why are we helping her? Ignore her! There are much more important events and people we should be paying attention to.
"The best part of her ran down her mother's leg........."
June 6th, 2006 at 12:04 pmI don't think it was their death the widows ejoyed.It was the attention.
My wife and I are lefties for sure, but we made similar remarks about the widows ourselves. They seemed to enjoy the attention they recieved to the point that it overided their grief. Their faces were lit up as the energy flowed to them in a way I have never seen in someone who had such a loss. There is no doubt that the modern American upper middle-class spoiled soccermom LOVES attention but I never thought,, THAT much.

#118 Shame on you - or whoever authorized your misleading “headlineâ€. The way you have strung your words, you imply that Ann is referring to ALL the 9/11 widows with her stinging criticism.
That's the best you can do? Defending Ann because she was only referring to the widows who were critical of Bush as "enjoying their husband’s death so much?â€
Yeah, shame on you, Judd. How dare you accuse Ann Coulter of being a callous bitch, indifferent to the death and suffering of others? Be fair. She's only indifferent to the death and suffering of people who don't agree with her. Come on now.
Geez, MA. You've got to be getting paid for these posts.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:18 pmUntil AC, I've never thought that it was acceptable for a man to b*tch-slap a woman...
I have to disagree with the consensus. True she has a large Adams apple but she doesn't have manly shoulders.
I'm so confused!
June 6th, 2006 at 12:19 pmIsn't she the person who wrote that article right after 9-11 about how she was personally affronted because her 'friend', Babs Olsen, had been in one of the planes that went down?
See, mourning the loss of another bleached-blonde rightwing harpy = good
Expressing outrage about the loss of your life partner = bad.

June 6th, 2006 at 12:19 pm#132 - I stole "Mighty Teabagger" from another commenter here: ForTruth. Should have given credit where credit is due. :D
June 6th, 2006 at 12:20 pmAnn's turning into the spawn of Fred Phelps. I used to think the best strategy was to ignore her but her positions are so far over the line, the more exposure she gets, the better. Blasting the widows of 9/11 - that's a great PR strategy. Another year or two, she'll be on the arm of Fred Phelps protesting that soldier's deaths are a liberal plot to undermine support for the war.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:22 pm#139 - There is no doubt that the modern American upper middle-class spoiled soccermom LOVES attention but I never thought,, THAT much.
Comment by the other John
I'm sure they'd rather have their husbands than the attention.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:23 pmSome say we should not be discussing Coulter. I would agree except for the fact that so many out there listen to her, and read her and take what she says as gospel fact. When crazy people get recognized soemone has to speak out and point out that they are crazy and refute the hateful rhetoric. Otherwise we ignore her and her uneducated fans will continue to be what they are.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:23 pmHow come Ms. Coulter won't ever talk about her own sense of infallibility and godlessness?
Let's guess that she's a professed christian of some sort. So whatever happen to "love one another as I love you!"
The problem with the right wing's notion of american christianity is that is neither.

June 6th, 2006 at 12:28 pmWhy do major media outlets give time to hateful people like this. It only legitmizes and glamorizes this kind of irrational, mean-spirited thinking - and puts money in the hands of people who use the misery of others to make themselves falsely controversial.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:28 pmThree cheers for Coulter! Ya gotta love her when she exposes the arrogant, secular supremacists
June 6th, 2006 at 12:30 pmwhy is being Godless perceived as a negative term? I perceive it as an intellectual and factual one.

Ditto.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:31 pmWhenever Coulter is discussed the hate on this board comes out in spades. You progessives want to attack her as if she is a tranny and then you condemn repubs for even bringing gender up. I guess then the repubs are justified in questioning Hillary's preferences.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:33 pm#148 - Jay, I'm starting to get my feelings hurt here! All the women in my family are very tall and skinny, although much better looking that Anne Coulter, and while people always thought my sisters and I were boys when we were growing up (pre-boobage), none of us has ever been a man!
June 6th, 2006 at 12:34 pm"True she has a large Adams apple but she doesn’t have manly shoulders"
Mann Coulter is "genetically gifted" in trans slang. She grew up a skinny boy and so it was easy to start wearing dresses and passing as a girl...except the adams apple.
Not all drag queens are built like fullbacks. Some of them could have lunch with you and you would never, ever know unless they told you.
And as for transsexuals...even many gynecologists can't tell, the surgery is that good.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:35 pmHere is a link to the clip of Kathy Griffin making fun of Coulter.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:36 pmThat did it. You guys just lost the white supremecist vote.

the barney frank rule says it is okay to bash closet cases like mann coulter...because they support a gay-bashing agenda.
otoh, the gop has no business bashing hillary's sexual preference because she's not a gay-bashing hypocracy.
its all about the hypocracy, you moron. you are too stupid to get that.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:37 pmIn thinking of the worst thing to say about Ann Coulter ("She's a transexual"), you malign people who really haven't harmed anybody. Are bigoted comments in the name of Coulter any different than what she spews? To me, such extreme comments are unnecessary, as criticizing Coulter is shooting-fish-in-a-barrel easy. To wit:
Even dead people vote in the right district.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:37 pmI am not a big fan of Ms. Coulter, but she is 100% right about the 9/11 widows. They are on television all the time, who the hell wants their opinion about anything. It seems they are always on blasting Bush, the memorial, freedom tower, the war on terror, airline security, Iraq, etc. Go away. I feel your pain, but you are nothing special. Quit bitching. Great interview Anne. I will buy the book just for that one quote.

What is androgen insensitivity syndrome?
Androgen insensitivity syndrome is a condition that affects sexual development before birth and during puberty. People with this condition are genetically male, with one X and one Y chromosome. Because their bodies are unable to respond to certain hormones (called androgens), they may have mostly female sexual characteristics or signs of both male and female sexual development (hermaphroditism).
Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome occurs when the body cannot use androgens at all. Partial or mild androgen insensitivity syndrome results when tissues are partially sensitive to the effects of androgens. People with partial androgen insensitivity (also called Reifenstein syndrome) can have normal female sexual characteristics, both male and female sexual characteristics, or normal male sexual characteristics. People with mild androgen insensitivity appear male, but are often infertile and tend to develop female breasts at puberty.

Hate won't sell and the left is so full of it that they no longer can control it. Look at the comments here. So much hate directed against a man who can't run again. That was Coulters message this morning. Bush has no need for popularity, he ain't running any more. Keep up the hate speach and we will win again.

Comment by Tom3 — June 6, 2006 @ 12:39 pm
It just goes to show the common misperception of the term Godless. The extremists have managed to subvert words such as 'liberal' and 'Godless' into negative terms.
Neither are negative terms - they are both progressive.
Godless is a particularly educated term.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:53 pmThe only problem I have SOME of the widows of 9/11 is that they were complaining about the about of money they were receiving wasn't enough. The compensation the that 9/11 famlies are receiving is a pure gift and should be accepted without prejudice considering people die everyday in accidents caused by negligence or maliciousness and their famlies are never compensated at all. Police, fireman, soldiers, ect...are killed in the line of duty and are their family compensation pales in comparison.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:54 pmYo, Matt! Which part of that was "fun" exactly?

Tom 3 Hates America. So does the 9/11 widows. You have to admit Anne is right on here. Most of these families took in millions and just keep complaining. Blame everything on Bush. Just not right.
June 6th, 2006 at 12:55 pmSteven
Whatever Ann Coulter says not to do -- DO IT.
The screeching right actually offers us progressives a pretty good road map. Whatever they attack is generally what works for us (as opposed to capitulation). When Dems adopt this rule of strategy, things will shift quickly and sustainably.
Example: Coulter knows damn well that the 911 widows are a potent and influential group, and her remarks are an attempt to change that.
We should take their unwitting advice and turn the volume to 10 (11? depends on the amp) when they demand we turn the sound off. After awhile they will get wise and stop with the hatemongering and we can get back to a relatively rational national discussion.
Ann Coulter is Brer Fox. Brer Fox !! You heard it here first! (
June 6th, 2006 at 12:57 pmukases > you are a pathetic PAID Bush loving troll, so who cares what you think or spew on here! As for Ann/Jeremy > he is a vile bigoted drag queen who spews hatred on widows and orphans of 9/11 > Ann deserves total contempt from everybody on here!

June 6th, 2006 at 12:59 pmI'm not a violent person by nature, but if Ann Coulter was standing in front of me, the desire to beat her ass into a bloody pulp would be too much for me to control. Jail time would follow.
June 6th, 2006 at 1:01 pmSomething to consider about Ann Coulter and her "fans"...
I've read most of these comments so I don't think I can add anything new about what she said here, what I think I can contribute is something happened last weekend that was a bit inspiring and positive relating to Ann Coulter...
My brother is a millionaire republican in Atlanta, GA. He read Ann Coulter's comments from her webpage about me where she called me a "little girl" - he thought it was funny until I told him that:
(1) I wrote Ann Coulter and her sponsors asking for answers as a follow up to her statements about Murtha who "longs to see troops shot" along with a vengeful attack that she made to someone I know and like - Lydia Cornell.
(2) The vengeful attack against Lydia was posting Lydia's private home address and phone number along with email on Ann's website. Lydia received hundreds of death threats via phone and email - she is married, has two young boys (I don't think Ann is married or has children but I'm sure she can find some way to relate). Informed of all of this by Lydia and several others, Ann still refused to respond or remove the information and the death threats continued.
My brother wasn't laughing or smiling at that point. I didn't have to convince him of the truth or facts.
My point here is simple - most people, even ones like my brother who buy into this crap, when confronted with the truth about what she professes to believe, back off from her.

June 6th, 2006 at 1:46 pmFor the record, my "zoo" consists of poorly behaved attorneys. ;)
I'd write something but I just read some excerpts from her new book, and I can't stop laughing right now.
June 6th, 2006 at 1:57 pmHAHAHAHAHAH 110 lb Blonde whips the Liberal (Progressive for those to chicken to say what they are) girlie men into a hissy-fit
GO ANN!!!!
June 6th, 2006 at 2:02 pm[...] Only one sighting of the devil today so far, she/it was barking unintelligible gibberish to Matt Lauer. Fortunately, the devil is not too bright. [...]
June 6th, 2006 at 2:03 pmThe jail time would follow AFTER you recover from the ass whippin .....Liberals men are sissys that do not know how to fight :)

LOL, are you kidding me you two bit inbred LOL.
We are still laughing.
If Ann Coulter speaks for the conservative movement, then shes the best advocate for our side that could ever exist.
She makes you guys look like hillbilly Nazi's. LMFAO
June 6th, 2006 at 2:06 pmKind of like the KeyStone Cops with arm bands.

June 6th, 2006 at 2:08 pmThat bitch has paid for her one-way ticket to hell a million times over. I truly hope she enjoys the trip. After all, she can look forward to seeing ALL of her best buddies there.
June 6th, 2006 at 2:08 pmWhat I don't get is why Matt Lauer didn't go for the jugular and just say what he really meant, which he probably thought it was in bad taste and 'hateful', like the rest of America thought at the time..?
Now if I were a betting fool on the why Ann Coulter is on Today, I would research the publisher ties and the money that probably changed hands at NBC to have her on, if her book is truly tanking. Matt Lauer had her flipping around like a flounder in a frying pan, and to thank her at the end of all that, well...somebody made some money, but that someone had a great sense of humor punishing her scrawny ass live, and for that I am thankful.
June 6th, 2006 at 2:10 pmIf this country was full of modern day republicans in 1776 we would all still be celebrating the queens mums birthday... Give me liberty or give me death!... something the right just cannot fathom. Go ahead Ann supporters .. tell us allll about those wussies George Washington and Ben Franklin... come on... you know more about Americas birth than anyone ... tell us all about how antiLiberal the founding fathers were... provide links to .. I want to see this.
June 6th, 2006 at 2:16 pm“Godless: The Church of Liberalism.â€
Uh, that can't be Ann Coulter's new book. After all, she's the one who said that the teachings of Christ don't mean anything.
Whatever.
June 6th, 2006 at 2:30 pm.
Ann Coulter is becoming the most hated female in the United States > whoops I mean the most hated MALE in the US > she just wears dresses and make up like Mighty Aphrodite on here > lol.
June 6th, 2006 at 2:33 pmLook at the pic of Ann on this thread carefully > imagine her hair cut short and no make-up > she would look like a goofy tall Gay Danish guy > lol. ( Note: that is who she really is a guy in drag.)
June 6th, 2006 at 2:36 pmGerald
It was, but you see, conservatives are kind of shit at winning wars.
June 6th, 2006 at 2:37 pmEvolution of a Democracy:
Start off by being "liberated" either with help, or the people liberating themselves.
Sell the liberation, by allowing "freedoms", get all onboard.
Things go well for a couple hundred years, Freedom rings.
Then, it's time to clamp down, as the "freedom" is no longer useful, people get complacent of freedom, and let someone take it.
Then, the people are reminded of what they had, and miss it.
The whole thing starts over.
June 6th, 2006 at 2:38 pmShe is going to talk herself into an early grave with her ugly mouth. Sooner than she thinks. Hateful trannie loser.
June 6th, 2006 at 2:38 pm#224 - An excellent example of a mind terribly wasted. Gerald, so consistently WRONG, at least he's consistent.
The folks who founded our nation on liberty, responsibility, freedom of speech, freedom to practice religion if one chose, and the remaining enumerated rights did NOT found our wonderful country on coercive progressive income taxes or a welfare state from "cradle to grave". The folks who couldn't stomach the fight of the Revolutionary War hit the road to Canada or got back to England PDQ.
Post-modern lprogressives co-opted the title liberal from the enlightened term "classical liberal". FYI, Gerald, "Classical Liberal" does not describe YOU....
Recess is over....
June 6th, 2006 at 2:39 pmI am so glad Mighty feels the need to watch over us kids, must be those co-dependency, and control issues.
June 6th, 2006 at 2:42 pmI like Bill Maher as a comedian, but he dated and had sex with Ann Coulter the crossdresser, so will Maher admit he swings both ways sexually, or does he just like drag queens hoping everyone thinks he sleeps with females?
June 6th, 2006 at 2:44 pmYou guys Mean MAnne Coltrane right?
The Guy from Georgia?
I notice that MAnne never denies, nor confronts this allegation..
Because, LOL, Its TRUE!!
June 6th, 2006 at 2:47 pmPost 234 > the press refuses to look into Ann's background, even though her identification documents are forged > she even signed her voting card in Florida checking the box for MALE > whoops she forgot to check female box since she is actually a guy playacting as female!
June 6th, 2006 at 2:52 pmLets take this one from the top:
I wouldn't call throwing people in jail for no charge just because they belong to a different religion or race liberating. Gitmo ain't an engine of liberation.
Now here is where your later statements take a beating, because first off, those taxes and bits of welfare you so bemoan can be seen as a form of responsibility, and second because responsibility is the last thing your guys have demonstrated. Note GW's treatment of the enviroment, general disregard for the law, and lets not forget, his staff outing a US undercover operative.
Which shouldn't result in us being accused of being terrorists or having people like Ann Coulter calling for our deaths, for us engaging in it. A right only extends as far as it does not infringe on somebody else's rights.
Which is NOT "So long as that religion happens to be Christian or Jewish" like a certain sector of the right would like everyone to believe.
Such as privacy, the right to protest, the right to bare arms, the right to access to information (limited of course by the rules surrounding classification) and the right to a free press. All of these have been deliberately undermined by GW during the last six years.
Now onto the rest of it:
Yes, they probably had no idea how successful their grand experiment could be, and couldn't imagine how wealthy Americans would become over the years, so they probably hadn't even dreamed that an America without hunger was possible.
The folks who couldn't stomach the revolutionary war ended fighting in it, either as loyalists or as rebels. Some even acted as field doctors and journalists, recording the events of the said war. People of all sorts of persuasions fought in the revolutionary war, it wasn't a matter of brave American hawks, and cowardly loyalist doves.
It comes from the term Liberty, as in freedom. We do not believe in sacrificing freedom in the name of security.
June 6th, 2006 at 2:55 pmThe folks who founded our nation on liberty, responsibility, freedom of speech, freedom to practice religion if one chose, and the remaining enumerated rights did NOT found our wonderful country on coercive progressive income taxes or a welfare state from “cradle to graveâ€. The folks who couldn’t stomach the fight of the Revolutionary War hit the road to Canada or got back to England PDQ.
Post-modern lprogressives co-opted the title liberal from the enlightened term “classical liberalâ€. FYI, Gerald, “Classical Liberal†does not describe YOU….
Recess is over….
You can't teach people anything, because you DONT know what the hell your talking about. You rant one way, then another, then its the Liberal rant, then the Homosexual rant, then the hispanic rant, then the war on Christmas rant, the war on easter rant, the war on liberals rant...
You just rant and rant and rant. No one here, cares, or believes a damn thing you say, and thats no ones fault but your own.
You are but a JOKE. A not so funny Joke.

June 6th, 2006 at 2:56 pmI'm just curious,
June 6th, 2006 at 2:56 pmHow substantial are these allegations re: "it's" sexual assignment?
Is there a gaping hole where "Anne's" background should be?
And couldn't we all pool our money to hire someone to investigate?
I think it would be money well spent! :)
How substantial are these allegations re: “it’s†sexual assignment?

Because she doesn't want people to find out she's really Skeletor.
June 6th, 2006 at 3:16 pmFrom Coulters Bio on Wikepedia
Ann Coulter was born in Darien, Connecticut and later raised in New Canaan, Connecticut, in a family she describes as "upper middle class". Coulter's two older brothers are John and James. Her father, John V. Coulter, a lawyer, represented clients in opposition to labor unions before obtaining a government job as a constable. Her mother, Nell M. Coulter, is a member of the New Canaan Republican Town Committee
Gee, daddy fought with big business against us steerage being able to unionize. He sounds like a real "people person".
And mommy is a member of the New Canaan Republican "Town" Committee,
Wonder what a "commitee" like that does in between book burnings and placing Liberal stickers on democrat owned store front windows?
June 6th, 2006 at 3:25 pmI think "upper" middle class in New Canaan means you've got a porch on your double-wide.
June 6th, 2006 at 3:27 pmWe'd all love to make Ann a merry little widow, but first she would have to FORCE one of the 3,000,000,000 men on Earth to marry her.
So far, no takers. On Earth.

"Look like"?
The BitchBully Annie backers are so stupid they couldn't find their asses with maps, flashlights, compasses, detailed directions and a head start
June 6th, 2006 at 3:33 pmBeing a widower myself (not as a result of 9/11), I cannot express how disgusted this makes me. I never did like Coulter, but she has sunk to a new low. I feel those widow(er)s' pain and no amount of money will EVER make up for losing a spouse. You are never the same after losing your spouse, ESPECIALLY at a young age. Coulter is at the top of my list now for the most repulsive and uncaring person in the world. She's above Cheney now for me. And that is saying a lot, let me tell you.
June 6th, 2006 at 3:35 pmLook, she's an elitist from New Canaan, Connecticut who hasn't a clue as to what is going on outside of her repressive, narrow-minded, old-moneyed little bucolic community. Would anyone expect anything less from a dingle berry such as herself??
June 6th, 2006 at 3:54 pm#250 - We’d all love to make Ann a merry little widow, but first she would have to FORCE one of the 3,000,000,000 men on Earth to marry her.
That's not the way I heard it. If you are a hard core ReichWingNut and if you appear to have "power" in government, well then, Ms. Ann will put out for you. Big time.
But I have to ask; Does anyone know with certainty that Ann is really a woman?
Afterall, with all the free sex that she gives out to Rethuglicans Fat Cats that "she" must really be "he". Repugs are soooo into that homo gang rape thing that if she were really "she", they wouldn't give her the time of day...
June 6th, 2006 at 3:54 pmComment by Flush Dimbulb
I suggest you do some serious reading of the writings of the people themselves. George Washington, Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson ALL left behind personal writings to be read by future generations... once again .. I suggest you take the time to read them. They were LIBERALS and any attempt to mince words will not change that fact. Like many ex-conservatives that come to this site (including myself) Ben Franklin was quite conservative in a moderate way (aka he also started libraries for the poor masses so they could educate themselves for free or as you call it "welfare") until he saw the true nature of the kings minions... once they belittled him in open court and refused to listen to his well thought out reasoning ... he became a PATRIOT REVOLUTIONARY .... Ben Franklin believed in the power of the individual to make a way for themselves in life through commerce (capitalism), but did not believe in greed (see once again his creation of libraries and schooling for the poor and also his refusal to try to make profits off his invention of the lightning rod (gasp! socialism)). So he (and the others) were a mix of conservatism and liberalism aka MODERATES. They did not believe in just rebel rousing .. they had to be pushed past a red line. That red line for Ben Franklin was being called an unpatriotic traitor for simply standing up for his rights... a lesson your kind had better learn.. the outcome for you can be quite severe... tar and feathers anyone?
June 6th, 2006 at 3:55 pmPost-modern lprogressives co-opted the title liberal from the enlightened term “classical liberalâ€. FYI, Gerald, “Classical Liberal†does not describe YOU….
Good to see you are true to the tradition of the conservative know-nothing loyalists of that era. When did you decide to defend King George, and not fight him?
June 6th, 2006 at 3:57 pmBen Franklin was also a strict secularist and mused on the idea of reincarnation.
June 6th, 2006 at 3:58 pmSorry Comment by Flush Dimbulb ... I should have qouted MA ...
June 6th, 2006 at 3:59 pmFlavius Worfeus - sorry to burst your bubble but New Canaan is FAR from having trailer parks (I would know, I live in Stamford, CT which is a hop, skip and a jump from New Canaan). Trust me, the whole town is so snooty that they'd all drown if it rained ... you know, that upturned nose thing they've mastered ... they like showing their utter distain for Stamfordites and anyone else who doesn't hail from "Old New Canaan" ... except, of course, the elitists on the other side of Stamford in Greenwich. On those very, very few occasions I must sully myself by driving through New Canaan, I purposely blast the stereo while driving down Main Street - just to piss them off ...
June 6th, 2006 at 4:01 pmMy Eyes! My Eyes!
June 6th, 2006 at 5:02 pmI pity you Ann Coulter..... but on the other hand, I can understand your anger..... If I were a woman like you (whoa, did I really say that?!), and my adams apple was bigger than my bra cup size - like yours obviously is, I would have a lot of vented up anger as well.
Ann, you are repulsive. Oh, Ann, don't forget, lying on a voter registeration document is a felony. Hope you go to jail.

June 6th, 2006 at 5:50 pmBruce...Way to go.
The funny thing is, this happens all the time on both sides of the isle. Things are politicized. I'm sure the Swift Boat Veterans were and with Cindy Sheehan, she had politicos gameplaning with her many mornings in Crawford.
Instead of having honest debate, the present political climate has become about "winning." Getting your spokespeople to be beyond reproach...Coulter has a good point, although it's hiding under venom and hate. You can't question the Swift Boat Veterans, they were there with Kerry and they know the REAL story. You can't question Cidny Sheehan, she lost her son.
BTW, there are plenty of bomb throwers on both sides of the isle. Coulter is one of the conservative ones.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:05 pmLook at all these liberals comments can't debate have to make personal attacks what a bunch of cowards Liberalism is a mental disorder you loose everytime
June 6th, 2006 at 6:07 pmWhat is it about the knee jerk left that gets so excited about a chowderhead nitwit like Ann Coulter? She's playing all the fools who pay attention to her like a piano.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:09 pmI can't believe the Liberal hypocrites that say SHE is full of hate. Read some of their posts. Who is the Hater? Anne makes a fantastic point. The Liberals wheel out the amputee lawmaker to Crawford, they use the 9/11 widows, they use the Sheehan death, they use Chistopher Reed, they use Srah Brady and her disabled husband. See a pattern here? Ooohh we are victims and we are the authority! You can't question us our we will call you meanies. I guess this is sort of handicapping their game?
June 6th, 2006 at 6:16 pmIsn't it funny that a right wing jerk would post that we hate Anne Coulter in a thread about how much Anne Coulter spews hate.
Up is down
Black is white
War is Peace
And Anne Coulter is a bucket of love.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:21 pmThe ones who are really to blame for Coulter’s remarks are the networks that give her a free ride. They’re the ones responsible for the destruction she causes.
Comment by John
To John,
June 6th, 2006 at 6:22 pmI agree, but add on the groups that pay something like $30,000 to hear Ann-thrax say things like she isn't a big fan of the First Amendment and the only way to talk to liberals is with a baseball bat.
Thanks Veronica.
Truthfully I was just clowning around, I've never been to Conn but I do have a picture of Annie Oakly sitting on the side porch of a lime-green doublewide in her knee length jean cutoffs and a old nasty tshirt that puts most wife beaters to shame, and aiming her Walmart rifle at whatever.'

Comment by Jay Randal —
I've long regarded Mighty Hypocrite as an Ann-thrax Coulter wannabee: same foul language and vitriol, same unsubstantiated rants, etc.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:25 pmThe "problem" with Ann Coulter is that she is practically alone in putting forth a certain style of debate: she doesn't pull any punches. The right generally is cowed by the rabid barking on the left, and afraid that if they react how they feel they should, THEY will sound like the left.
Ann Coulter is probably the only one on the right -- and I include Rush Limbaugh, all Pats, etc. -- who has the appropriate tone. I repeat: she is the only one who says what needs to be said, without concessions. Her peer is Laura Schlesinger in another arena (social, rather than political) -- similar courage to say what needs to be said, similar intelligence. Good potential but less prominent is Tammy Bruce -- and my list ends.
I'm not very clear why there are only women on it, but here's an attempt to sustain the hypothesis that it's not a coincidence... What the left has done is create the equivalent of an abusive relationship with those who disagree. Women may have more experience in recognizing and fighting abuse.
This abuse results in undue influence within the debate. I'm sure the left doesn't mind that, since it's to their advantage, but it nevertheless deters us all from achieving proper conclusions. (I.e. when you shut someone up you win only in the short term.)
June 6th, 2006 at 6:25 pm#274 - I agree, Worfeus. Do you think Jim means "loose" or "lose?" I like how he capitalizes Liberalism, that's nice. I've always been a fan of punctuation.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:26 pmLook at all these liberals comments can’t debate have to make personal attacks
Comment by Jim — June 6, 2006 @ 6:07 pm
LOL, like Ann Coulter doesn't make personal attacks. BAWAH HA HA HA HA
Hell she makes her living on personal attacks.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:27 pmAnn "C" with the mud/blonde sea-hag hair draped over her pinched face, has a long history of pitbull raging: In her August 2005 rant about Cindy Sheehan, she says: "To expiate the pain of losing her firstborn son in the Iraq war, Cindy Sheehan decided to cheer herself up by engaging in Stalinist agitprop outside President Bush's Crawford ranch. It's the strangest method of grieving I've seen since Paul Wellstone's funeral. Someone needs to teach these liberals how to mourn."
She rambles on: "Call me old-fashioned, but a grief-stricken war mother shouldn't have her own full-time PR flack. After your third profile on "Entertainment Tonight," you're no longer a grieving mom; you're a C-list celebrity trolling for a book deal or a reality show."
One could never accuse AC of being old-fashioned and certainly not compassionate. But look who's talking about trolling (Ms. Troll) for a book deal! Do us all a favor: Have a buzz-cut & get rid of that mess on your head; find a good shrink immediately; stop writing books; call Bill O'Reilly and make a one-way reservation to the front lines in Iraq with no body armor, no toilets, no makeup, dried food that can be rehydrated using dirty water or urine, and .... DON'T COME BACK! We have plenty of hatred & "evil doers."
June 6th, 2006 at 6:28 pmWhy do we even listen?...
Here's Ann Coulter writing about the September 11 widows:These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzies. I have never seen people enjoying their husbands...
June 6th, 2006 at 6:28 pmAnn sure has you libs all riled up... She's getting just what she wants...to see the libs ranting and raving and showing their true colors.
If she's as worthless as you say, why do you care what she thinks or says?
June 6th, 2006 at 6:32 pmJune 6th, 2006 at 6:32 pm
Anne Coulter doesn't debate anything. She goes on right wing talk shows, spews hatred and then the right wing talk show hosts feign being upset. Get a grip. If you like this vile person, you are just as bad as she is.

June 6th, 2006 at 6:39 pm
As a Progressive Born Again Christian I am appalled at her. How dare she say that Liberals are Godless?? Would a Christian harass women who lost husbands?
I would love for Progressive Christian Ministers like Jim Wallis and Toni Campola to get more air time.
Christ was all about caring for the poor, loving your enemy, and turning the other cheek. It's horrifying how the right has hijacked his message of peace and turned into hatred and intollerance.
Is it Christian to cut off poor children's health care? Is it Christian to cut old people off Medicare? Is it Christian to write memos justifying torture? Is it Christian to cut school lunch programs so multimillionaires can have bigger tax cuts?
Most democrats say they are Christians, it's about time we take back the message and show that caring for the least of us, the environment, finding peacefull solutions to probles is the Christian way!
June 6th, 2006 at 6:39 pmTalk about thep ot calling the kettle black - who is talking about politicizing tragedy!?! HELLOOOO!
Besides, how the heck does she talk about families dressed like a skank?
June 6th, 2006 at 6:41 pmI like an and think she is pretty good a calling things out. To bad she creates such a stir for Democrats and Left-Wing types...she must be hitting a nerve out there.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:42 pmHave you heard of "milking it for all it's worth"? Do you know anybody who does that? There aren't many -- most people are decent -- but there are some. Ann Coulter dared to point out that some 9/11 families are on that list.
This tactic is not new. It's in fact the basis of class warfare, going back to Lenin and the gang... The underdog status lets you make outrageous claims before anyone feels morally justified to push back -- which in some cases happened too late, and for everybody (i.e. the pyrrhic victory of comunism, everybody lost).
June 6th, 2006 at 6:43 pmCoulter's took Christianity on the brown-shirt plan.
A couple of hail Mary's, a few Seig Heils, and you goosestep yourself right into the kingdom.

Ahh, I see you heeded the punctuation tips. Now time to get out the speak-n-spell Jimbo, and learn about proper nouns.
An, is something you say when describing something, like an otter. Or an owl.
Ann is spelled with 2 n's, and the A is capitalized.
Yup. Even for her.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:48 pmI never encourage the kind of mean insults that you're reading in these comments - never except for Ann Coulter, who is begging on bended knee for mean insults. She and Michelle Malkin. What kind of psychotic says something like that and is aware that she's saying it?! These two women are the freak show of the RNC's big tent.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:50 pmAlso what is pretty good a calling things out mean?
You mean she sits there and just sort of shouts stuff out, like Tourette's?
And when you say, "a calling things out" is that how all you hill folk talk?
June 6th, 2006 at 6:51 pmThen you should really like me for calling you out as a low life piece of sh!t.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:52 pmWhat I like so much about Ann Coulter is that she really pisses off self-righteous, wine-sipping, racist, pro-Israel, war-mongering bigots. Those people deserve to be pissed off.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:52 pmMean Daniel?
That was nice.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:52 pmAlways in her tongue-in-cheek style, Ann Coulter did make a valid point that a handful of those 9/11 widows used their husbands' untimely and tragic death as a springboard to jump into the forays of post-9/11 post mortem -- feigning themselves as some sort of experts on national security, some gurus on matters of war and peace. Give me a break. If they really want to mourn and grieve in the public limelight and in an exhibitionistic sort of way, going on the Oprah would be a better platform. Come on, do you really take seriously what's coming out of the big-haired heads of those Jersey Girl? Speaking of Jersey, when it was exposed that former NJ governor(D) hired his foreign-born butt buddy as NJ's counter-terrorism advisor, did those Jersey girls even give an iota of public denuciation? I don't think so.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:53 pmResponce to comment #33 #267:
June 6th, 2006 at 6:55 pmYes, you can question Cindy. I personally know a man who lost his son in Iraq and he sent a letter to "W" telling him to stay the course in Iraq. No one, I mean NO ONE has reported this in the liberal media or played it up like Cindy has been played up. This is the hyprocracy of the left that Ann is refering to: "Cindy can't be questioned" but conservatives like my friend are ignored by the liberal press. This is the point of fact that Ann is making and the point of fact that the liberals chose to ignore at all cost. May I suggest to all of you liberals, click your heals together and say "I want to return to reality". Oh wait; for liberals, reality IS somewhere over the rainbow.
Nice Eric.
Send me a postcard when you get to hell.
In the meantime, you might consider the fact that these women, the people in here, everyone who is speaking out everywhere in the world against your murderous band of mutants, are all working to end the killing, and save human life.
These women lost a human life that was close to them, either in the war or in 911.
I'd say that earns them a right to use their status to excercise their free speech.
God knows Ann Coulter does it every chance she gets.
June 6th, 2006 at 6:57 pm"spews hatred"... "vile"... "bad"... "Jews mix the blood of now-Jews in their bread and eat it"... "US is the Great Satan"... "gay muslims are the enemy of Islam"... Can you tell where YOU stop and "real" hate begins? I can't.
Liberals in education unite and celebrate: we have our very own Madrassas!
June 6th, 2006 at 6:57 pmAnn is right on the mark and it just eats you guys up doesn’t it. You are proving her point she can’t talk about the "grieving" widow Ms. Shehan without being blasted as cruel. Remember the fact that Cindy hasn’t even picked out the headstone for her sons grave yet. How long has she been on tour in the USA and Europe now? The govt. pays for it, all she has to do as a “grieving" mother is pick it out. Think about your son Cindy not selling your new book. What? Yes, Yes, Yes that’s right she had time to write a book but no time for the memory of her son. Quite reveling isn’t it!
June 6th, 2006 at 6:59 pmNo one, I mean NO ONE has reported this in the liberal media or played it up like Cindy has been played up. This is the hyprocracy of the left that Ann is refering to

Well, perhaps we are "hypocrac's", whatever the hell that is, but quit your crying about the widows speaking out.
You can whine, stammer your feet, throw a tantrum or doe whatever it is you babies do when you can't have your way, but don't think for two seconds that these women don't have every right to speak out for what they believe.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:04 pmShe is a true patriot and has great breasts.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:04 pmRevoir , Eric.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:06 pmExcellent posts!
I read through some of the posts - I think you are all so p*ssed because she touched a nerve! Ann dares to question the motives of people in the media, those who rant. Dont like it? Well, if she wasnt right, it wouldnt make you so angry. I say right on Ann - dont stop! (You know she wont, thats what we love about her!)
June 6th, 2006 at 7:07 pmOne other thing - you guys HAVE to know that it make her day when you get all riled up...Its good clean fun.
Revoir , Eric.
Excellent posts!

Get a room.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:08 pmI think she did amazingly well. Whats wrong with thinking before you answer a question. I happen to find her an honest breath of fresh air. Thank god for her.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:10 pmYes, I can. If you think Ann Coulter is a good person, you are a bad person. Period.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:11 pmI think I just threw up in my a little. Blech.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:12 pmLOL I know what Spudge is boy
June 6th, 2006 at 7:12 pmSpudge boy, you are quite the judge. I guess you have superior skills at assessing the "goodness" in a persons heart? I guess there really is no room for debate with you - Ann was talking about people like you...all your left with is trying to smear...quite revealing.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:13 pmThat is true. Cindy has been run through the mud by the liberal media, where Bush is only given praise, even though his poll numbers have been below 35% for 2 1/2 years. You are a retarded knucklehead.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:14 pmIf she has been through the mud by the media than I'm a knucklehead. The media just about french kissed that girl.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:18 pm[...] Today is June 6th, or as people are using it for marketing purposes these days: 6/6/06. Satan, reincarnated, made an appearance on NBC’s Today with co-host Matt Lauer to plug her new screed that I wouldn’t even use to wipe my rear with. In her interview, Coulter was questioned about a passage in her book where she attacked the widows of September 11th victims (via Think Progress): These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzies. I have never seen people enjoying their husbands’ death so much. (emphasis from Think Progress) [...]

Luke.
Just stay where you are. Don't get excited. When the little white truck pulls up with the red lights, and the nice men knock on the door, just put the jacket on they give you and go with them.
Later, they'll give you Ice Cream.
:D
June 6th, 2006 at 7:19 pmAnd Ann Coulter has every right to call them on it when they start playing politics! Politics affects us all, it's too high a price to let some drive the debate unchallenged, just because they assign a certain significance to a personal loss.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:20 pmCindy hoy are you today? Cindy what do you think anout this and that. Cindy what do you think about our presedent. Ulp I think I just threw up a lot.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:21 pmkeep going spudge. You champion liberalism in the truest leftist fashion...down with discourse! The odd thing to me is that liberalism prides itself on its intellectual supremcy - odd that its proponents dont know how to defend their ideas, without the ad hominem attacks... but we have seen this before, havent we? Many illustrious leaders proceed you...Heil!
June 6th, 2006 at 7:21 pmIts amazing anyone takes her seriously.
Personally I don't think she believes half of what she says. She claims she does, but I think she's more like a "Faith Healer".
She sees the sheep baaa'ing in the corner, so she leads them along.
After all, its been quite lucrative for her.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:22 pmOOPS! FLAVIUS `WORFEUS I misspelled a word.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:22 pmNo Piper.
Actually you misspelled 4.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:26 pmwow - so many trolls at once! ann really needed all this support? it's like a freeper-fest!
speaking of the anti-christ... in honor of 6-6-06, thom hartman (filling in for sam tonight on majority report radio/ air america rado) just talked about this fun filled fact:

Hoy is spelled How.
Anout is About.
Presedent I think its safe to assume is supposed to be President.
Ulp??? Here I have no clue.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:29 pmann is a hottie any of you low lifes would love to be her or have her for 1 night I love you thanks for telling it like it is
June 6th, 2006 at 7:29 pm"uPside down star" duh
June 6th, 2006 at 7:31 pmAnn is really a transvestite whore. A Pre-op trannie.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:31 pmHo Chi - you wish.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:33 pmGo Ann, keep putting it back in their faces. Matt Lauer has never been nothing but another blathering talking head. The interview was a classic example of media CRAP! Which is all that comes out of NY anymore. True objective journalism is DEAD and has been for some time now. And another thing, this issue of the "Polls", have you seen the polls, Bush is down in the Polls.... Let me just say that any intelligent person realized a long, long time ago that the polls do not mean nothing. They are merely media tools to try and sway peoples thinking. Sometime I wonder if they only call people in NY when taking the so-called "Polls". It will be interesting to see how the remnant of their show will perform after that nauseating Katie Couric is gone.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:33 pmOh yeah? Well then: if YOU think Ann Coulter is a bad person, YOU're a bad person!
--
Ok, that's too dry... Let me see... Ok: you're not just bad, you're slow. So damn slow you're like a fat man trying to have sex with a jar of peanut butter.

Another grammatical wizard I see.
You guys really have a pension for spelling Ann’s name in the lower case. Could it be you guys secretly disrespect her in some way?
Also I noticed the lack of punctuality. Its like one long sentence.
Either Jim or you are one and the same, or there is some sort of cranial deficiency in republicans and right wingers that just makes them stupid.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:35 pmTrillium, read post 321 - it goes for you too...very intelligent...
June 6th, 2006 at 7:36 pmby the way - the only significance of going to that page (en espanol) is that the logo is the largest, easiest to see...
June 6th, 2006 at 7:37 pmWoa, Flavius, score DUDE for the left...awesome.. LOL
June 6th, 2006 at 7:37 pmAl Franken is Coulter's clone...on the left of course. Both are jerks.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:40 pmPlease don't lump all conservatives with her. I think she is despicable. I also have never thought she was even slightly pretty. That long, stringy hair?? She's free to say as she wishes, but nobody should give her a soapbox for this insane ranting. My son is in the Navy, in a dangerous place. Her comments are a smear on all the young people serving our country.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:41 pmOf course, I can forgive typos.
Everyone makes them when they're frustrated and upset.
It's that fat fingering that comes from pounding out a quick answer cause your hearts racing and you can't stand the fact that that little bastard on the other end said this or that.
Happens all the time.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:42 pmIs what these widows doing anything like raising the threat level every time the president gets caught in a lie or using 9/11 as there own political agenda or the president giving out turkey in Iraq, or using a blonde short skirted bimbo to attack the people that the right has no balls to. All these right wing pundits have one purpose: to attack the left w/ hate and vile insults so their leaders don't have to do it. They are used then thrown away. Did you see all the people who came to Rush's aid when in trouble? How about all they did for Anne with her troubles? These people have no credibility among anyone with half a brain. They want to get to you to start an argument about some insane idea so they don't have to face all the administrations mistakes. They are sent out there by the right wing to antagonize. Can you give any credibilty to a group that justifies the murder of innocent woman and children? Is this the american way? If someone is holding a family hostage w/ a gun then the right thing to do is go in and kill everybody? Is that what we do in America? These people been drinking their own bathwater
June 6th, 2006 at 7:43 pmI agree with her 100%
June 6th, 2006 at 7:43 pmwhy are you arguing with all these silly trolls - go have some fun - see #325
June 6th, 2006 at 7:44 pmbe sure to google "uPside down star"...
I can't believe anyone but fox would even give her air time. All it does is help sell her
June 6th, 2006 at 7:44 pmbooks to mentally challenged idiots like the last few commentators, and her brand of
hatred is just babblings of an insane person. I have never wanted to hit a woman in
my life, but in her case I'd make an exception. I wonder why Matt didn't ask her about
her voting record in Florida....
Yeah Christine and Congressmen on the left running their mouths is helpful for our boys in harms way.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:44 pmCoulter Hit another home run and SMACKED down the bed wetting liberal media and dimwitcrats today.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:45 pmI don't get it. Is this like the sound of one hand clapping? Or something from Scientology test 22B3? I go mourn now -- loved "ADD: A Different Perception", and now to find out he's a freaking lib?!?... Ahhh... And now "Memories" of when I loved Barbra fill my eyes with sorrow...
June 6th, 2006 at 7:47 pmYou know what? When 911 familys sued the Saudi royal family Bush family lawyer James Baker's Law Firm defended the Saudis ...
Explain that one you Benedict Arnolds. Why dont you go to your true home Saudi Arabia and dont cry about wanting to come home when we start droping bombs on those assholes.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:47 pmAnn Coulter LOVES being vilified and hated by liberals or anyone with two neurons firing. She is a shrill, mean spirited, arrogant person. I am reluctant to say woman. in her case.
As for her rants, there is a great line from the movie "As Good as it Gets" when Jack Nicholson, after hearing from an obvious Latina about how to care for his mugged and robbed neighbor, ends his little speech to her with the words, "Go sell crazy somewhere else. We're all stocked up here." That's what people need to say to Coulter, no matter where she goes, and what she says. It fits her perfectly.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:47 pmSpeaking of Bimbos remember it is just a vast right wing conspiracy.
June 6th, 2006 at 7:48 pmI don’t get it.

June 6th, 2006 at 8:02 pmTalk [back] radio is more right than left because of its consumers' feedback loop. The other side believes; THEY think.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:04 pmNazi Party that is.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:04 pmIt is so funny that so many trolls will come out to protect the transvistite known as Ann Coulter, but still want to ban gay marriage. Any of your idiots who say Ann is hot are talking about a guy. Therefore, you are gay and homophobic.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:05 pmThank you for admitting that these talk shows are just right wing talking point lectures. I tried to make that point many many posts ago, but you morons will only beleive sh!t if it comes from your side. Thanks.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:07 pmYou "believe" in Intelligent Design, and try to pass laws to teach it to our kids with science.
You "believe" God hates homosexuals so you try to pass laws to restrict their freedoms.
You "believed" that Saddam had WMD, so you BUTCHERED over 100,000 people.
Like I said, you don't think, you believe.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:08 pmIt’s such a big world that those guys fighting amongst themselves over there is OK, can’t spread to the USA, but lets not talk about that liberal mantra Global Warming.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:09 pmTo Spudgeboy, I'm not sure if Ann Coulter is a transvEstite or not, but tell us why you would make such a revolting comment. How old are you? Your comments are extremely juvenile.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:09 pmI think they called him the BUTCHER of Bagdad. Before we removed him and now they have the beginnings of democracy.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:11 pmPlease forgive if this has already been stated. (funny how you want to respond after reading 3 posts and then realize there's a few hundred)
I would love to know why any netword continues to put Coulter on the air?
They know what they're getting into when they book her, so it makes me wonder.
To answer an eariler post: If Coulter is not a real conservative, then the real conservatives need to speak up and denounce this cretin. They need to stand up and disavow the whole lot: DeLay, Bush, Rove, Coulter, Hannity...you know who you are. They need to denounce the nutty Pat Robertson and the evil Falwell. But they don't. Isn't this the same argument that they make against "moderate muslims" who don't speak out against the radicals?
If the 'real' conservatives don't publicly, and constantly disavow nutjobs like Coulter and the blatant hate-filled disrespect for all things good...they inherit them.
If they don't denounce these people, then they support them.
You're either sane...or you're with the terrorists.
Seriously..they need to disavow these people, or they are secretly cheering them.
Think about all that implies.

LISTEN EVERYONE
EIther this kind of flame throwing is ok or it's not. You don't get to crab and whine when someone you don't agree with starts doing it, but rationalize when it's your guy. This is the thing that drives me crazy about the poilitical discousre in the country right now. People point fingers at the other side and a) either forget when their side does the same or b) ignore it becasue they would rather be "right."
June 6th, 2006 at 8:12 pmThank you David. I believe I agree.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:13 pmPiper is right, Saddam Hussein was the Butcher of Bagdad and he killed far more of his own people than anyone else and he exported it by paying the families of Palestinian suicide bombers.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:14 pmIf Ann Coulter can spew hatred and have all of you a$$holse back her, then I am free to call you what you are, a$$wipes.
BTW, I am old enough to be your dad and kick your a$$.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:18 pmTo Erik, good post, you are absolutely right, this is not discussion. It is ranting... If you start at the top you can see the whole discussion devolve into what it is now.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:19 pmYou are correct and the trolls here protecting Ann the man wouldn't have had to hear any of my BS if Ann wouldn't have made such a rude comment, but she did and the trolls decided to back her up, so the mary go round goes around again.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:22 pmTo Spudge Boy, I'm sorry if you are upset but there is no need for derogatory language. As I often tell my sons, the use of profanity is simply an inability to communicate intelligently. You are not here to discuss issues like and adult, you are clearly here to put other people down.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:23 pmIm sorry, I agree with her. Its very telling to hear that Matt did not consider Iraq part of the war on terror- at this pont anyone who cannot connect the dots and see that there is a much bigger picture to islamic terror and thats its all connected is simply never going to get it.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:27 pm"Piper is right..."
Hardly. Not that the statement in itself is incorrect, but it's not relevant.
At all.
A pointless comment. You act as if no one realizes what/who Hussein was/is.
How utterly ignorant.
If Hussein's atrocities was the stated reason for the invasion and occupation of Iraq, that would be one thing. But that's not how it worked.
WMD's, remember? If Bush were interested in protecting human rights in Iraq...well, that's certainly not how it worked out, now is it? Not to mention, if that were our gfoal, there are better countries to start in. Places with even worse leaders, even worse crimes against humanity. Iraq was the low hanging fruit. Kind of like a few of you trying to turn this into a "Saddam was a bad guy" thread.
Of course he was. You might as well state: "I am against murder."
Well...of course you are. Anything else to add? No? Good.
Now that that's settled, I'm gonna make myself a nice cup if coffee and enjoy the rest of a beautiful evening.
Just remember: No one supports Saddam in any way. But that still doesn't justify this war, and it's cost in dollars, and blood. Keep that in mind the next time you decide to get out the Bush Pom-Pom's. People are still dying over the lie.
-Chuck
June 6th, 2006 at 8:27 pmTo all of you--The truth hurts, and Ann makes you feel like the scums you are.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:28 pmDavid,
You are correct. I am tired of trying to have discussion with idiots that want this country to be less than the great country that I served in the military to protect. When people like Ann Coulter state such blatantly hateful things and then trolls come here to back her up, I will not be nice. Sorry, there is no room in this society for the kind of bile that comes from Ann Coulter. If she is free to say that sh!t and you think it is fine, then I am free to reply back with the same kind of sh!t.
Now if you want to admit that ANn was wrong and would like to discuss how to bring this great nation back together, now that Bush and parasites like Coulter have torn it apart, then fine.
If you do not, then I don't really care and will be happy to jump into the mud slinging.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:28 pmAnn's book just went to # 5 on Amazon.com today from #39 yesterday.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:32 pmI predict a #1 by this weekend.
I think this blog helps sell her books.
I just bought it.
Thanx to the Today show and the haters on the blog for making me feel GREAT when I bought it.
Carry On, you right wing booksellers....Carry On!
This from the guy that was the first to call us A**holes. Lets just sing Coom-ba-ya and stick our heads in the sand.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:34 pmExcuse me if I say that I believe and will always believe that Saddam had WMD. They are somewhere and will be found or used one day. At least 1 Iraqi General has testified to this. As for Bush, as a republican, I am not happy with him or any of the elected republicans. But, to me, they are better than the alternative. I have swore to myself that no matter what, I will not vote for any incumbent candidate for a long time. Too bad we cannot get the whole country to vote them all out, democrat and republican, and just get a whole new batch. As for Ann, she is the one catching it today, tomorrow the media dance will go on and the bickering over the confusion and lies they create will continue.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:35 pmThanks for the laughs guys - gone to get a cold one.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:39 pmSpudge Boy - I think you and I have made progress. If you are, as you say, a veteran, then I salute him and thank him for his service to OUR country and I am proud of what you did. We still clearly disagree in regards to Ann but we can have a civil discussion.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:41 pmThe fact that the MSM gives Coulter the air time is all the proof one needs to demonstrate that they are as bankrupt, ethically, morally and otherwise, as in fact Coulter thinks and says they are.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:42 pmwhy are you sorry to agree with her? I'm happy to agree. Ann has it right on.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:42 pmThe fact that the MSM gives Coulter the air time is all the proof one needs to demonstrate that they are as bankrupt, ethically, morally and otherwise, as in fact Coulter thinks and says they are.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:42 pmI love the way Coulter gets the nutball left wingnuts into a froth. I personally wish she would run for president and Malkin for VP. The louder the leftards whine and grovel just means that Coulter is getting to the truth. Like Jack says- "you can't handle the truth". Coulter just reflects what most of us hicks here in "flyover country' really feel. The lunatic left in America just all get their periods whenever she speaks. The rabid criticism of of Coulter just show the utter hypocrisy of the the left wingnuts. I guess political correctness only applies to certain left wing icons and chosen minorities.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:42 pmhave fun wingnuts.
ps- we here in the real America know that "progressive" is just liberalspeak for commie.
I thought all you leftards were going ot move to france or canada or something- howcome you are still here? have a nice day, just have it somewhere else.
I don't want Ann Coulter to stop having a platform to talk. Crazy loons from the Right and Left should get their airtime, as long as the host doesn't give them a fee ride. Matt L. made some attempt to make her explain her lunacy here. For the longer version of this clip, see
She's such a loud and obnoxious person who, like O'Reily and a lot of your other voices of hate, doesn't really allow debate to happen. It's all sound and fury.
She operates by talking fast and pretend-angry over everyone with selected soundbites and, as noted above, her breasts. It's nice, and rare, to see someone calling her on her bull with her own words. which don't stand up. She usually gets a free ride due to her fast and clever tongue, combined with her paradoxically slutty look. She's got the racing/wrestling/megachurch crowd cupped in the palm of her hand as she stokes their bruised egos. It's getting tough being a white male.
The dittoheads and O'Reily geniuses will still see her as the smartest woman in the world, instead of a clever but shallow mouthpiece for the dark side.
For an emaciated big-mouthed byatch, she sure has a lot of admirers. Think it has anything to do with her "look"? Gets the racing/wrestling/megachurch crowd everythime--"What a breath of fresh air!", "I find her honesty refreshing".
June 6th, 2006 at 8:45 pmLeftards.....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH
June 6th, 2006 at 8:45 pmNow that's funny..
How do the 30% that are still left end up on this blog anyway?
June 6th, 2006 at 8:47 pmFirst of all Coulter is talking about a GROUP that calls themselves "The widows of 9/11." For those of you who think she's talking about ALL widows of 9/11, unfortunately you're delusional and easily manipulated.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:48 pmNow there is something I can agree with. Except the part about WMDs. But, everything else is right on the button. The US government needs an enema. There is no red or blue in Washington, only purple. These guys are all in bed together. We need a governement of the people and for the people.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:50 pmTo the left, why is Ann's freedom of speech called "hate" ? She is not a Imam in London spouting Jihad, she is not a Imam in Dearborn Michigan spouting hate against the goverment and christians, she is not a ranting muslim in a storefront prayer mosque in Toronto spouting hate and murder. Please explain....
June 6th, 2006 at 8:51 pmCoulter and Malkin on a ticket. Wow, I've heard it all now.
See, the problem *is* flyover country. You have more in common with God-fearing Wahabis then you do the Coasts.
You can have those two hate-spewing, lowlife, loudmouth tools if you just set up Jesusland and secede so the best of America can just do it's own thing unimpeded by Creationists and "patriots". We'll even throw in M. Moore and Wierd Al Sharpton for you to poke with sticks.
I love you post, man. Your sentiments, and you spelling, say it all. GO USA!! GO USA!!
June 6th, 2006 at 8:52 pmReal Americans believe in the Constitution, real Americans don't disparage our heros, talk about giving comfort to the enemy, you all are right o0n target.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:53 pmChris:
I know real Americans
I'm friends with real Americans
YOU SIR ARE NO REAL AMERICAN
YOU ARE A NEO NAZI
The first example came in the the context of President Bush's current push for a constitutional amendment that would prohibit gay marriage. The liberal mantra on his initiative, as exemplified by Ann Curry's performance on yesterday's Today, is that this is a cynical political ploy and a waste of time when there are myriad 'real' issues out there to be addressed.
Right out of the box, Lauer invited Ann to buy into that logic:
"David Gregory said if you ask people what they care about they say Iraq and gas prices. Gay marriages are way down on the list, but that's what the president is talking about and what the Senate is taking up. Why?"
Coulter would have none of it:
"I don't know what people are talking about or how David Gregory knows that. But I do know that gay marriage amendments have been put on the ballots in about 20 states now and passed by far larger numbers than Bush won the election by."
Matt then hit Ann with a classic exemplar of perceived liberal truth - the musings of a WaPo columnist. Lauer:
"Here's how E.J. Dionne puts it in the Washington Post: 'The Republican party thinks its base of social conservatives is a nest of dummies who have no memories and respond like bulls whenever red flags are waved in their faces.' Do you agree with that?
Coulter: "That the base are dummies or that Bush thinks that?"
Lauer: "That he can wave a red flag and they will run to the polls to respond to him?"
Coulter: "They don't need to respond to him. He's not running again."
Lauer: "They want the voters to turnout in the mid-term elections. They don't want to lose control of the congress."
Coulter: "Maybe they want to do what the voters want. Whatever you can say about whether or not Bush has a mandate, the mandate against gay marriage is pretty strong. It passed by like 85 percent in Mississippi. Even in Oregon, and that was the state that the groups supporting gay marriage fixated on and outspent their opponents by like 40:1, it passed even there. There is a mandate against gay marriage."
Lauer: "Do you think George Bush in his heart really cares strongly about that issue?"
Coulter: "I don't know what anybody cares in his heart."
Lauer: "Would you take a guess?"
Coulter: "I know what Americans think because they keep voting, over and over and over again overwhelmingly they reject gay marriage. So why is that a bad thing for politicians to respond to what is overwhelmingly a mandate?"
Ann's rejection of Lauer's liberal logic was again on devastating display a bit later in the interview. Lauer suggested that Pres. Bush's low approval ratings are attributable to Iraq. That in turn engendered the following exchange.
Coulter: "I don't think so. That's the one thing he is doing right and that the Democrats are incapable of doing. That is fighting the war on terror."
Lauer: "But I am talking about the war with Iraq, not the war on terror."
Coulter: "I consider them the same thing. We didn't invade Guatemala."
Cue the rim shot!

I guess...that's a testiment to the popularity and truthful impact ThinkProgress has.
I love that it drives them so crazy their minions must defend what's left of their so-called honor.

David,
I don't mind having discussions with conservatives. Both my parents are and we talk about politics all the time. They don't go into this mud slinging stuff. They can actually have conversations without name calling.
But, I am tired of the hate speech. The Sean Hannitys and Ann Coulters of the world spew. It is what is dividing this country. If you are intelligent, you will understand that a divided country is a bad thing. The us versus them atitude has got to go. The American people need to wake up to the fact that our government is intentionally pushing the us and them mentality.
It is bad for the US. Nobody will "win" if this keeps going. The greatness of this country is diversity. If everybody was the same, this would be a very boring place.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:56 pmWhenever I wonder if the Angry Left is mounting a serious challenge to the 'Extreme Right' (i.e., the right-most 75% of this country), I come here. Lo and behold, I get 300+ examples of baseless, self-righteous drivel, mocking everything from Ann Coulter's looks and people who live in trailers to Christianity. And just when I'm feeling comfortable that the Left represents no intellectual threat whatsoever, you guys are nice enough to seal the deal by sinking into vulgar name calling.
I love this site. Keep up the good work.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:56 pmI am a real REPUBLICAN and after 6 years of listening to liberals blather on and on about how Mr. Bush is ruining this country I can honestly say that if Ann Coulter causes your hemorroids to swell and itch FINE BY ME.
The political atmosphere was poisoned by YOU not us. The 2000 election was won FAIR AND SQUARE. And Gore REALLY WAS A MORON, AND STILL IS. For all his faults Mr. Bush left more intelligence in the toilet this morning than Algore has been able to piece together neuron-by-neuron in his entire brain-dead life.
Furthermore, I have actually read MANY posts by MANY liberals since then calling for VIOLENCE in the streets. I have read MANY posts by MANY liberals denouncing Christians as less-than-human (VERY similar to FACIST rhetoric) and SCREAMING for MY rights to be taken away by force if necessary.
Well, on that account you can collectively bite my shapely Puerto-Rican-Texan ARSE. I AM SICK TO DEATH OF EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU SICK LITTLE IMMORAL TREASONOUS WHINERS AND I AM HAPPY IF ANN COULTER MADE YOUR PATHETIC LITTLE DAY!
June 6th, 2006 at 8:57 pmGood way to put it Spudge, this country needs an cleaning out from Washington down to the local city and county councils. Replace them all! Term Limits Now, No more career politicians. They are serving themselves and destroying the country like no external enemy could ever do.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:58 pmDavid,
Come on.
That is hateful and not true and you know it.
June 6th, 2006 at 8:58 pmBTW...how can anyone defend garbage like this:
How do some of these people sleep at night? Tell me.

These are people who don't even get paid to do the job, they just want power. We had to sue a lady who wouldn't give up her post as the school association president. And here is the best part. Her kids had been out of the school for 3 years. SHe just didn't want to give up her "power" What power. Tod decide if the Father Daughter camp out should be on March 3rd or March 10th.
Besides the government, people need to change also.

Matt Lauer has two different sets of standards for politically provocative authors. If you are on the left he laughs with you, if you are on the right he slams you. On this morning’s Today show Ann Coulter’s statements drew outrage from Matt but last October when Al Franken suggested Karl Rove and Lewis Libby be executed for treason Matt and the Today show crew laughed. Lauer’s interview with Coulter got particularly testy when he read excerpts from Coulter’s new book and demanded she defend them. The following is the most explosive portion of this morning’s Coulter V. Lauer showdown:
Matt Lauer: "Let me give you some quotes from your book, alright? These are random. 'Environmentalists..."
Coulter: "Yes! Now we're on a subject I want."
Lauer: "'Environmentalists' energy plan is a repudiation of American Christian destiny which is jet skis, steak on the electric grill, hot showers and night-skiing. Liberalism is a religion. A comprehensive belief system denying that the Christian belief in man's immortal soul.' And you go on to say, 'liberalism is the opposition party to God.' How do you think Democrats who believe in God are gonna feel about that statement?"
Coulter: "They probably won't like it. They don't like a lot of things I say."
Lauer: "Is it a fair statement you think?"
Coulter: "Yes, yes."
Lauer: "How about this one?"
Coulter: "That's why I wrote a book about it."
Lauer: "Referring to liberals again. 'To a liberal 2200 military deaths in the entire course of the war in Iraq is unconscionable but 1.3 million aborted babies in America every year is something to celebrate.'"
Coulter: "Yes."
Lauer: "You think people celebrate..."
Coulter: "They manifestly do. They are huge rallies for it. That is the one issue that's more important to the Democratic Party than any other. I mean Bill Clinton, the last..."
Lauer: "Do you think they celebrate the right to choose or, or the actual abortion?"
Coulter: "The last candidate the Democrats got into the White House was Bill Clinton. I, I take that as a fair assessment of whom the Democrats will choose as their representative. Bill Clinton sold out every single special interest group. The criminal rights group, the welfare bureaucrats. The one group he would not stand up to were the abortion ladies. Vetoing bans on partial birth, a gruesome procedure passed by overwhelming majorities in the House and Senate. Twice, Clinton vetoed that. That tells you what the Democratic Party thinks about abortion."
Lauer: "Do you, do you believe everything in this book, do you believe everything in the book or do you put some things in there just that cater to your base?"
Coulter: "No of course I believe everything."
Lauer: "Alright on the 9/11 widows and in particular a group that had been outspoken and critical of the administration. 'These self-obsessed women seem genuinely unaware that 9/11 was an attack on our nation and acted as if the terrorist attack only happened to them. They believe the entire country was required to marinate in their exquisite personal agony. Apparently denouncing Bush was an important part of their closure process.' And this part is, is the part I really need to talk to you about. 'These broads are millionaires lionized on TV and in articles about them reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzis. I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' death so much.'"
Coulter: "Yes."
Lauer: "Because they dare to speak out?"
Coulter: "To speak out using the fact that they're widows. This is the left's doctrine of infallibility. If they have a point to make about the 9/11 commission, about how to fight the war on terrorism. How about sending somebody we're allowed to respond to? No, no we always have to respond to someone who just had a family member die..."
Lauer: "But aren't they the people in the middle of the story?"
Coulter: "...because then if we respond, 'Oh you're questioning their authenticity.' No the story is..."
Lauer: "So grieve but grieve quietly."
Coulter: "No the story is an attack on the nation..."
Lauer: "And by the way..."
Coulter: "That requires a foreign policy response. That does not entail the expertise..."
Lauer: "And by the way they also criticized the Clinton administration for their failures leading up to 9/11."
Coulter: "Oh not, not the ones I'm talking about."
Lauer: "No they have."
Coulter: "No, no, no. Oh no, no, no, no."
Lauer: "But is your message to them just grieve..."
Coulter: "No, no they were cutting commercials for Kerry. They were using their grief in order to make a political point while preventing anyone from responding."
Lauer: "So if you lose a husband you no longer have the right to have a political point of view?"
Coulter: "No but don't use the fact that you lost a husband as the basis for your being able to talk about it while preventing people from responding. Let Matt Lauer make the point, let Bill Clinton make the point. Don't put up someone I'm not allowed to respond to without questioning the authenticity of their grief."
Lauer: "Well but apparently you are allowed to respond to them."
Coulter: "Well yeah I did."
Lauer: "Right so in other words..."
Coulter: "But that is the point of liberal infallibility. Of putting up Cindy Sheehan, of putting out these widows of putting out Joe Wilson. No, no, no you can't respond it's their doctrine of infallibility."
Lauer: "But what I'm saying is they've..."
Coulter: "...somebody else make the argument..."
Lauer: "I'm saying I don't think they've ever told you, you can't respond. So why can't they make their point?"
Coulter: "Look you're getting testy with me."
Lauer: "No I'm not. I just..."
Coulter: "Ohhh."
Lauer: "I think it's, I think it's, I think it's your dramatic statement. 'These broads,' 'you know are, are 'millionaires stalked by grief-arazzi.'"
Coulter: "You think I shouldn't be able to respond to them."
Lauer: "'I've never seen people enjoying their husbands deaths so much.'"
Coulter: "They're, they're, yes. They're all over the news."
Lauer: "The book is called Godless: The Church Of Liberalism. Ann Coulter always fun to have you here."
Coulter: "Hey where's Katie? Did she leave or something?"
Lauer: "She did. 7:17am. And now here's Ann."
June 6th, 2006 at 9:06 pmAwwww... you poor, pouting, whining lib-turds are all upset about Ann C. on Today Show? She got your pantyhose in a wad? May I suggest you call Ted Kennedy and have a sob-fest in his bourbon cabinet? Awww.... poor stinkin liberals... pout some more now....
June 6th, 2006 at 9:07 pmYou would have to admit that some of them have taken advantage of their situtations. It has been in the news and even in some of the NY TV shows(Law and Order). Be careful about absolutes! I feel for all who have lost a loved one, but that does not give them exclusivity on this.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:07 pmUm...yeah. We saw it. Thanks. :|

June 6th, 2006 at 9:20 pmWow. Over 400 comments on a liberal smear page and not one nice thing to say. Obviously none of you have read anything she has written and just take sound bites you catch on web clips. You keep on proving her point with every venomous diatribe you utter. Hmmm..I see 'filthy pig' I see 'she should be shot'. The intelligent ramblings of the looney left. I'd be shocked to not see my post wiped off for not agreeing. It's the same reason people are fed up with celebrities using their fame to push their agendas. Do not one of you understand we get the fact these widows are grieving and they have that right? That they also have the right to a political opinion? They're using their idea of their grief for political gain. That's what is truly disgusting. Lauer and (Coulter slapped down) Couric are the epitome of the leftist media. I applaud you all for being so brave to seek the company of your own sort and feed your own delusions. All you keep doing is making Ann's point for her.

But remember, at least I didn't spell President with 3 E's.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:23 pmHonestly, we, as Americans, deserve all this. We deserve Ann Coulter, we deserve Louis Farrakhan, we deserve Al Franken, we deserve Jesse Jackson, we deserve Rush Limbaugh, and we deserve the crap we get in Washington. Honestly, the best thing that could happen is that every incumbent, Democrat and Republican, get voted out of office. The people in Washington take us for granted and we enable them by arguing amongst ourselves. Nothing will change until we show them who's boss. And I'm not sure if that's going to happen anytime soon.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:24 pm[...] 666 ann coulter number of the beast [...]
June 6th, 2006 at 9:24 pmOne of the worst insults in life is to be ignored by those whose attention you desire. The best thing that Americans can do is ignore this bitch. No publicity, no people at her events, don't by the book, no interviews etc. Turn your back & ignore the bitch. Is she a woman anyway? It's a worthy question. Bill Maher should be able to answer the question. He's alluded many time to having sex with her. But then, maybe he got fooled by a great surgeon.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:25 pmWhy are some of you people so hateful. This is a travesty, calm down and discuss, we all have more in common than we admit. Is this really the way the left talks and thinks. I may agree with Ann Coulter on most things she writes, but I do not advocate or encourage this type of discussion at any time. Reading this blog has darkened my opinion on the human race. Is this all we are.....
June 6th, 2006 at 9:26 pmCNSNews.com has an exclusive interview with Ann Coulter today as her book "Godless" The Church of Liberalism" hits the book stores. She tells Randy Hall that abortion is the "virgin sacrifice" of the liberal "religion" she describes in the book. Coulter goes on to say that one of the main goals of the American public education system is to force small school children to become atheists. Coulter takes on the spectrum of what she considers liberal doctrine, ranging from global warming and stem-cell research to "dry" toilets. Here's a sampler of her lines:
Cybercast News Service: During his May 10 appearance on the "700 Club," Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean said: "One of the misconceptions about the Democratic Party is that we're godless and that we don't have any values. The truth is we have an enormous amount in common with the Christian community, and particularly with the evangelical Christian community." How would you respond to his statement?
Ann Coulter: Who knew Howard Dean had a sense of humor?
Cybercast News Service: Do you think U.S. Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) and U.S. Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.) will ever admit they were wrong for claiming in September 2004 that President Bush had a "secret plan" to reinstate the military draft after the presidential election? Or does their military service insulate them from having to apologize?
Ann Coulter: Excellent question! No.
Cybercast News Service: In your book, you state: "If you gave all the money in the United States to the public schools, they would not improve; they would simply cost more." Can you envision any federal attempt to improve education at the local level that would be effective?
Ann Coulter: Yes, abolish the Department of Education and bring RICO suits against the teachers' unions.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:28 pmi meant to say "I do not advocate or encourage this type of discussion at any time, REGARDLESS of political affiliation, religon, or anything"
June 6th, 2006 at 9:29 pmIn the wake of the Ann Coulter interview on Tuesday's "Today" -- specifically the part where Matt Lauer simply couldn't believe Coulter's attacks on 9-11 widows channeling their grief into anti-Bush attacks on TV news shows -- here are a few reminders of how the Kristen Breitweisers of the world (who endorsed John Kerry in the fall) were given the lion's share of attention by network hosts like Matt Lauer.
An MRC study of relatives on the morning news shows found the disparity of anti-Bush victim relatives to pro-Bush relatives was 20 to 3. (The report concluded, "These relatives are entitled to their views, of course. But network viewers are entitled to a little balance, too.")
A week earlier, it was already obvious Breitweiser was doing election-year publicity against Bush:
On this morning’s Today and for multiple segments in a 90-minute post-Condi Hardball special on MSNBC, only four widows were singled out as judges of Rice’s testimony. The four were celebrated in the April 1 New York Times as “nonpolitical.†NBC has emphasized Kristen Breitweiser, who has appeared in four Today interviews in four weeks.
Mrs. Breitweiser insists that she voted for Bush in 2000, but has wildly declared that “Three thousand people were murdered on Bush's watch.†Times arts editor Frank Rich also noted how she tartly complained that a Showtime 9-11 docudrama failed to display President Bush reading to school children “while people like my husband were burning alive inside the World Trade Center towers†because it would have been contrary to “Karl Rove’s art direction and grand vision.†She’s hardly “nonpolitical.â€
At the time, Brent Bozell noted that part of the unfairness was that networks like NBC never discovered widow/experts to rail against the failures of Clinton against terrorist attacks:
Meanwhile, a Nexis search quickly shows that NBC has aired no news story with the words "widow" and the U.S.S. Cole, where terrorists killed 17 Americans in 2000. NBC aired no news story with the words "widow" and the embassy in Kenya, where terrorists killed 12 Americans in 1998. NBC aired no news story with the words "widow" and the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia, where terrorists killed 19 Americans in 1996. These grieving families have never been given a nationwide TV platform on NBC to express their opinions on how the Clinton administration handled investigations of those incidents.
When Breitweiser appeared in Kerry ads in October 2004 and traveled the country with the Kerry campaign, Brent Baker reported in the CyberAlert that CBS pretended she was just a random voter in Ohio, instead of a valued campaign spokesperson.
Even in December of 2004, as the widows reprised their act, Bozell revealed the networks couldn't notice that Breitweiser & Co. signed up for the Kerry campaign.
CNSNews.com has its own interview with Coulter on her new book: She tells Randy Hall that abortion is the "virgin sacrifice" of the liberal "religion" she describes in her new book, "Godless."
June 6th, 2006 at 9:33 pmhehehe... let the games begin! You can tell when the leftards can't dispute the facts they resort to the Nazi card. You left wingnut goose steppers have more in common with anybody on the right. The left is more maniacally fascist than any rightwinger. Anyone that calls into question any of your sacred cows gets the full dose of spew and hate. It would almost be funny if it was not so pathetic and hypocritical . the fact that you leftards actually believe the dung splattered logic you espouse is a sad comment on the state of the socialist left in America.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:44 pmWho the hell are you or anybody else here in left wing Disney land to tell me I am not American?? Who the hell do you self described holier than thou anti- American traitors think you are. In your maniacal left wingnut evangelism you sound like you are trying to convince yoursel of what you are saying.
Ann coulter has more truth in one of her columns than I have ever heard from the left wingnut hate machine. Your comical and juvenile specualtion as to her sexuality is typical of your utter hypocrisy. i thought gays and trangenders and dykes and other sxual misfits and deviants were saints to you left wingers. Or is that only applicable to things that YOU say?
Keep posting the attacks - it is hilarious to see leftards PMSing and getting their birkenstocks and copies of The communist manifesto and Che t-shirts soiled with their own feces and urine over the truth.
Get yourselves a paper towel, clean the spooge and spittle-froth off of your chins and try to think with your brains and not your sexual and defacatory organs for a change. You guys are so funny.
I'm a widower-Anne's right. People don't want to ever question us. If you decide to get into the political free for all then it comes with the territory to get criticized-the widowed don't deserve a free ride. Keep on kickin butt Ann!!
June 6th, 2006 at 9:46 pmCoulter is so intellectually superior to these pretty msm entertainment stars that a real debate is not only unfair but boring as well.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:54 pmDavid,
Even if some of the widows are using this, just as Cindy Sheehan has, to get acros their political point of view, that gives Ann COulter no right to say that they are enjoying their spouses deaths. You know that as well as I do.
June 6th, 2006 at 9:55 pmHow long have you known Ann? Dan. Thats what I thought -
June 6th, 2006 at 10:23 pmThe only people who have grown here in the last hour are Spudge and David.
Piper is right, Saddam Hussein was the Butcher of Bagdad and he killed far more of his own people than anyone else and he exported it by paying the families of Palestinian suicide bombers.
Comment by David
DONT YOU BELIEVE IT!
You people cannot be supporting the Butcher of Baghdad when it suits you and then crusade against him as if you are valiant knights the next moment when it suits you. You are not saviors of the people of Iraq. You are twisted dark hearted selfish manipulators. How many Iraqis died because of your man Rummys policies and all the other Nixonian/Reaganite policies? Then all the sudden 911 happens and you become "THE SAVIORS OF THE DOWNTRODDEN OF IRAQ!!!! DUN DUN DUN!!!! HERE THEY COME TO SAVE THE DAY!!!!"
........
Who do you think we are? ITS ALL ON TAPE FROM THE 1970s TILL TODAY... Do you think we are blind? And what about those 15 Saudis that ATTACKED AMERICA on 911? Were they Saddams personal MECCA POLICE? Did they hatch the 911 plan at the direction of his Muslim holliness Saddam Sallam the Great? What is the fantasy you have dreamed up for yourselves that could POSSIBLY justify letting BUSH and the NEOCONS fly the Saudis out of America after 911 instead of them being interigated here in America? AND Let Bush and the NeoCons do absolutely NOTHING to the Saudis and call them ALLIES!!?!?!?!? AND ... AND then divert America into a WWII Germany style pre-emptive attack on a country that had NOTHING to do with 911? So you are not cowards... you will hoop and holler and kill rag heads ... so what? Are you traitors? Are you going to let the Saudis smugly smile and puff on their cigars while those people jumped out of those buildings to their deaths at WTC.... and GET AWAY WITH IT? You are either completely insanely retarded or you feel that the deaths of a few thousand Americans is WORTH the Bush family and Exxon/etc relationship with the Saudis.... which is it? Hmmmm Ann? Rush? Orielly? Which is it? We dont buy the Iraq distraction.... which do you choose? Americans or Saudis? Which is it? those SUVs make you want to have just a few more sips of that precious precious oil? Hmmm? Which is it?
If you were going to do something about 911 you would have already done it. Afghanistan was only an outpost. Iraq was a PNAC dream. But the Saudis.... now that is a totally different matter. And you did NOTHING. Keep sipping away... because all the future of America is going to see ALL OF THIS on the Internet forever and they will know what you did and did NOT do.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:27 pmHey chris, Thanks for letting me know that their stil passing out the kool aid. It's a shame that your so blinded by your loyalty to the right that you can't see that what they NOW stand for is totally uinAmerican. At one time the Republican party stood for everything that most Americans value, maybe that was before you were born, it's really sad your too closed minded to understand that what you espouse is unAmerican. Who am I to call you Unamerican. I'm an American, read the Constitution and Bill of Rights and come back and argue that your still an American. It's very sad
June 6th, 2006 at 10:27 pmhehehe… let the games begin! You can tell when the leftards can’t dispute the facts they resort to the Nazi card. You left wingnut goose steppers have more in common with anybody on the right. The left is more maniacally fascist than any rightwinger. Anyone that calls into question any of your sacred cows gets the full dose of spew and hate. It would almost be funny if it was not so pathetic and hypocritical . the fact that you leftards actually believe the dung splattered logic you espouse is a sad comment on the state of the socialist left in America.
Who the hell are you or anybody else here in left wing Disney land to tell me I am not American?? Who the hell do you self described holier than thou anti- American traitors think you are. In your maniacal left wingnut evangelism you sound like you are trying to convince yoursel of what you are saying.
Ann coulter has more truth in one of her columns than I have ever heard from the left wingnut hate machine. Your comical and juvenile specualtion as to her sexuality is typical of your utter hypocrisy. i thought gays and trangenders and dykes and other sxual misfits and deviants were saints to you left wingers. Or is that only applicable to things that YOU say?
Keep posting the attacks - it is hilarious to see leftards PMSing and getting their birkenstocks and copies of The communist manifesto and Che t-shirts soiled with their own feces and urine over the truth.
Get yourselves a paper towel, clean the spooge and spittle-froth off of your chins and try to think with your brains and not your sexual and defacatory organs for a change. You guys are so funny.
Comment by Chris
You could take every left in this guys message... replace it with the word right and it would be completely true. This is what the reichwingers have done... this is what I have been saying on here... they have made a concious effort to take all the LANGUAGE of the left and coopt it so that it doesnt sting when it is used on them anymore. Calling them goosestepers used to really piss them off... but now they call the LEFT goosestepers !!! heeheh and it no longers hurts their little black hearts. I wonder if their masses are really that psychotic to not see this langauge switch or if they get what their leaders have done and are just going with it as the sheep that they are? You see... NOW the right are CHAMPIONS!!! no less of 1) LIBERTY! hehehehahaha ya ya right ok... 2) FREEDOM! (!) freedom to be anything they say you can be... 3) COMPATION!!!!!! except for the poor and blacks.. oh and some jews... and all muslims... well except the ones that help make up the fake war intelligence... 4) EQUALITY!!! except for gays and women ... oh and blacks again...

June 6th, 2006 at 10:40 pmI don’t give a Tinker’s Damn what Ann Coulter looks like; nor do I care a whit what her alleged gender is…
June 6th, 2006 at 10:44 pmWhat counts to me is this: For what does she stand?
Does she really stand for “conservatism?†Or does she stand for the Straussian / Trotskyite philosophies of the Latter – Day Bolsheviks (read Neo Conservatives)? You mean this same “conservative†who has called for torture, the detention of citizens without charges and internal check points?! “Conservativeâ€, My Ass!!!
I’m tired of hearing these discussions about “Left Wing†v. “Right Wingâ€. Both wings are of the same bird! Many of these so-called “debates†taking place between these “celebrities†are staged WWF – like dog-and-pony shows for public consumption. The goal – to get us fighting with each other and ignore politicians’ trampling of our rights – no matter WHICH side of the frigging aisle they are on! The argument should not be about “Liberal†v. “Conservativeâ€, but Freedom v. Slavery. George “I Love Gun Control†Bush, “Pills†Limbaugh, Coulter, and Dick “I Love PNAC†Cheney, et al are too busy wiping their asses with the Constitution to read what it REALLY says!
Just because there is a letter “R†in front of a name doesn’t make one a TRUE patriot. As a Life Member of Gun Owners of America, I know of what I speak of…
Make fun of Coulter and her ilk, laugh at them; deride them. They can’t stand it. Above all, ignore them.
#[…] Only one sighting of the devil today so far, she/it was barking unintelligible gibberish to Matt Lauer. Fortunately, the devil is not too bright. […]
I think Satan kicked her out of hell for being too evil and mean-spirited.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:57 pm#423 -- Yes, I personally don't usually write down and dirty, but Ann brings it out in us. She, her whole career, like many other right-wing hate-media stars, is all about character assassination and out-of-context cherry-picked facts and quotes.
She is smart, as is Rush and O'Liely, but they, like some here, scream unfair for dishing out a little of what these media whores do everyday in their hateful books and shows. They don't want debate, don't kid yourself.
"Liberal smear page". That's a little much.. This thread doesn't even compete as a venue for smears with the mouth of the Coulters and Malkins. They deal with smears, they know innuendo and hate, that's what they do. They are the stars of political hackery.
The Left has its own, but they don't do as good a job, because their heart is less into it, in general, being more concerned with "fairness". The Right does it better, understanding power better, going for the gut better. It's the difference between the Gore campaign and the Bush mafia in Florida.
This is my first ever visit here, and you get your angry posters here just like you do on countless other sites, so don't be shocked. This is a place to let off steam--it's like the House of Commons. If you want to see real spew, go on over to that proud piece of Republican fairness and civility which is the Swift-boat Vets for Peace. You want to really feel discouraged about America and its future, look at that right-wing nuthouse. I'm no Kerry fan by a long shot, but how they helped the Rove machine pump up an AWOL rich-kid slacker and rip Kerry's resume apart was a low point in our political history. It's amazing what 20 milliion bucks will buy.
This silly argument about the widows is just typical. Coulter is over-the-top rude and hypocritical, spouting false or misleading facts and impressing the vast stupid Middle with her quick (though shallow) tongue and her breasts.
Politics is full of hypocritical cant on both sides of the political divide, it's just that Coulter and her fellow travellers take it to the extreme, and then have the constant gall to accuse more reasonable people of the craziness that she's the master of. Her kind of America, like her psyche, is ugly, and if you don't get that, well then I guess you might as well just continue to keep buying her books, listening to Rush, watching FOX to reinforce your fearful view of what's important in the world.
If you want to have a reasoned debate on values, don't look in a thread about Ann Coulter. Let her on all the media outlets, but pin her, make her explain her b.s.--don't just let her make wild statements unburdened by a reality check, because then the stupid amongst us will take her as Gospel. She sure sounds confident, like any jerk in a bar on a Saturday night. Let her rant, but hold her to the truth and she'll shrivel. It doesn't happen enough, and this clip was not enough.
June 6th, 2006 at 10:59 pmLol Chris guy on here spews the same bile that I-Right-I used to do on TP threads > is Chris I-R-I, or his brother, or his lover?
Lots of other Ann loving trolls on here like "ramrod" > pathetic little creeps > Coulter had to pay them in some way to flood on here to defend her!
June 6th, 2006 at 11:16 pmDo I have this right--it's ok for Bush to try and exploit 9/11 to get himself re-elected, but it's unfair for the widows of the 9/11 victims to support a different candidate? One who isn't trying to exploit 9/11?

Thats the ticket, I agree with you on that. Both sides are complicit in removing individual privacy and rights, either acitvely or passively. I really don't give a rats a$$ about Coulter, this is a bigger picture issue.
BTW, I saw a bumper sticker that said "Coulter 2008" and it was on a total junker peice of crap vehicle, so I couldn't figure out if it was a joke.
June 7th, 2006 at 12:50 amDavid,
Yup there are hateful folks on both "sides", and the extremes of "both sides" actually meet somewhere . I become hesitant to really commit to a label of left or right, both "sides" have nutjobs, and it just fuels the arguments and makes both "sides" right about each other. There is no real difference between Dems and Repubs, most all are influenced by power, greed, corporations, group think. "Our Democrats" have complied with the endless bullshit.
June 7th, 2006 at 1:00 am#430 Rackets,
If I could call a temporary cessation of hostilities...
Tinker's Damn is actually Tinker's Dam. It goes back to when repairmen (aka Tinkers) used little pieces of putty as a dam in which to pour molten metal to plug a hole or shore up something. The dam, once so used, was subsequently thrown away. Hence the use of tinker's dam as an expression for something of no value.
OK. Back to the catfight.
P.S. I had to read your piece twice to believe it, but actually agreed with much of what you said. Must be the late hour and the Chimay.

We all know Coulter talks out of her ass 101% of the time, but it seems like she’s granted entirely too much credibility through the mainstream media. The fact that anyone interviews her outside of Fox news is just a complete mystery. Anyway, Coulter was on the Today Show this morning about the 9/11 widows who forced the Bush administration to create the 9/11 Commission: “These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by griefparrazies. I have never seen people enjoying their husband’s death so much.” [...]

June 7th, 2006 at 2:42 amSom when did we stop debating the actual issues and swap to the 'ad hominem personal attacks' style of politics?
Depite everything she has to say about the women themselves, NOT ONCE does she ever bother to address the issues they raised. That's not politics, that's cowardice.
June 7th, 2006 at 3:26 amIm sorry, I agree with her. Its very telling to hear that Matt did not consider Iraq part of the war on terror- at this pont anyone who cannot connect the dots and see that there is a much bigger picture to islamic terror and thats its all connected is simply never going to get it.
Comment by Shawn — June 6, 2006 @ 8:27 pm
A true example of walking into a battle of wits unarmed
Let's review
For decades, the US propped up Saddam Hussein as a barrier to the spread of Islamic fundamentalism across the middle east
The main country that the US saw as pushing Islamic fundametalism was Iran
Now that Saddam Hussein is no longer in power, those Islamic clerics in Iraq are now seeking out deeper ties with their clerical brethren in Iran
So in the name of fighting Islamic fundamentalism, the Bush Jr Administration has now pushed the clerics of Iraq & Iran closer together
How, exactly, is that STOPPING "Islamic Terror" again?
And lets shed a tear for poor BitchBully Coulter and her mindless sheeple/lackeys/trolls
Hos sad & pathetic must they be to hypocritically whine about how poor Annie is talked about so roughly, but have no problems with annie speaking roughly-with complete lies-about others she disparages
If poor picked upon BitchBully Coulter can't handle strong language tossed her way, then maybe she shouldn't be the first to use it on others who have suffered far worse losses than she ever has
Let's see, what have She & Malkin sacrificed for Dear Leader W's Glorious Iraq Meatgrinder Crusade?
Oh, that's right,
NOTHING-like the rest of the ChickenHawks backing the draft-dodging, budget-busting ChickenHawk with Delusions of Grandeur-President Jr-Malkin & Coulter are all in favor of others fighting the war they support from the safety of their stateside keyboards
Of course, personal courage, or personal responsibility are also concepts foreign to those still backing President Jr, traits they will never exhibit, possess or practice in any way
Actually, the only thing more pathetic than BitchBully Coulter are her sheepletrolls here-It's like they think Coulter will actually notice their pathetic attempts at defending her grotesque attitude
Sorry losers, Coulter has no time for ANY of you defending her here, unless you're throwing money away to buy her latest mentally-unhinged moonbat, goosestepping diatribes
No, the only ones BitchBully Coulter has any time for are those who feel just like Annie does, pure hatred towards as many people as possible-But you'll only get on her "to-do" list if you've got money-which leaves just about any of her d-list trolls here out of the picture
And at the top of Coulter's Crush List would be Usama bin Laden, a religious fanatic Coulter obviously admires and worships from afar
But since Annie's not into the personal courage thing, then she's subject to the same ChickenHawkery that President Jr has shown all his life
Poor annie, so scared to try and defend her positions with logic and facts, concepts also absent from all those who still back President Jr and his multimilionaire brother in arms and ideology, Usama bin Laden

Comment by Bruce
Whether you or Ann like it or not the fact of the matter is anyone that was involved in 911 has the RIGHT on their own to advocate their position on 911.. The democrats do not have to go out and round these people up! THEY WERE THERE. They have the right NOT because they are being paid by the DNC or whatever fantasy you are dreaming up. YOu are simply on the attack against anyone that disagrees with you whether they have a valid point or not. The agrument you are trying to make is totally bunk. It is as if you are saying a victim whose family is killed by some companies negligence has no right to participate in a lawsuit against the company because they were injured and are just using it as a tool to join in with that companies opponents. How REDICULOUS of a notion!. They WERE injured and they DO have a valid right to talk about it.... you just dont like that you are wrong and they are right and some of them happen to be democrats... well TOO DAMN BAD. You lose. Losers. If you were not a bunch of unAmerican turncoat Saudi Arabian appologists it would not bother you that they want answers and action taken because of their lose on 911.

I BELIEVE THAT ANN HAS THIS AFFLICTION!
What is androgen insensitivity syndrome?
Androgen insensitivity syndrome is a condition that affects sexual development before birth and during puberty. People with this condition are genetically male, with one X and one Y chromosome. Because their bodies are unable to respond to certain hormones (called androgens), they may have mostly female sexual characteristics or signs of both male and female sexual development (hermaphroditism).
Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome occurs when the body cannot use androgens at all. Partial or mild androgen insensitivity syndrome results when tissues are partially sensitive to the effects of androgens. People with partial androgen insensitivity (also called Reifenstein syndrome) can have normal female sexual characteristics, both male and female sexual characteristics, or normal male sexual characteristics. People with mild androgen insensitivity appear male, but are often infertile and tend to develop female breasts at puberty.

June 7th, 2006 at 10:34 amAnn is correct: Liberals choose martyrs that most are afraid to dispute (excepting Ann Coulter) because they will be accused of insensitivity or other such nonesense. To use your husband's (or child or wife) death as a base to make outlandish political statements about a wartime president is very low class. When you all are through hating Bush, perhaps you can suggest some practical policy that has a chance of success (unlike most 20th century democrat foriegn policy, and having France like us does not count!).
June 7th, 2006 at 10:55 amJeff- Florida
I'd like to see Jeff tell a 9/11 widow, to her face, that her opinion is outlandish. You don't have the balls :-)
June 7th, 2006 at 11:01 amJeff would never set foot in New York because he knows that his cousin-lovin southern ass would get kicked to the curb in NYC.
June 7th, 2006 at 11:03 amAnn is wrong. Anyone can speak out about the way the US reacted to 9/11. Nobody knows whatreallyhappened.com but the worst part is Ann probably does know who orchestrated the so-called 'terrorist attack on America'. She probably knows the CIA and Bush's cronies are behind all of this.
June 7th, 2006 at 11:04 amCoulter would not dare confront the 9/11 widows face to face. She lacks the real conviction to discuss these issues rationally - plus she would get her face slapped and she knows it. How could anyone think they have the right to ridicule or criticize grief? There's a serious disconnect with reality there. It's cowardly to trivialize these issues that threaten the entire peace of the world by calling people names and running and hiding behind a self-cultivated persona just for the sake of wealth and notoriety and extraordinarily dubious political viewpoints. She may be one of the most immature people to ever run at the mouth in public.
June 7th, 2006 at 11:05 amExactly Chimp parade. Just imagine what Coulter would have done if Matt Lauer had said "well Ann, it just so happens that we have a 9/11 widow right here who wants to talk to you" :-)
June 7th, 2006 at 11:10 amWow, Larry - now THAT would've been a show worth watching!
June 7th, 2006 at 11:14 amThese are all weak, childish responses to accurate criticism. Punching and slapping, "cousin loving"? Not very intellectual, but that is par for the liberal course, in lieu of logical arguements. I lost two colleagues in those towers and I go to NYC monthly, and have been to Iraq. My comment stands and I would tell any one of those millionaire self-entitled widows my opinion of how they have shamed their husband's memory with their political circus grandstanding. Same for Sheehan. Now, stop being so violent and work on maturing your interactions with those you disagree with. Jeff-Florida
June 7th, 2006 at 11:22 amShe's a man. A stupid, stupid man. And if you really think she believes half the inane crap that comes out of her disgusting pie hole of a head, you're being duped. She's a farce, an act, like Steve Colbert, but most people don't get the joke. The right uses her to get the "god, guns and gays" nutjobs (thier base, in other words) all frothy at the mouth, then they go and quench thier thirst with the blood of newborn babies. She also has man hands. Frightenengly huge, gawky man hands. I bet she could palm Shaq's head.
June 7th, 2006 at 11:25 amUsing phrases like "outlandish political statements" and "low class" is anything but mature. Get off the cross Jeff, someone needs the wood :-)
June 7th, 2006 at 11:29 amWhat is weak is stating on May 1, 2003 that the mission was accomplished followed by three more years of war and 2,000 plus dead soldiers. But that's okay, after all the insurgency is in its last throes (for the last two years).
June 7th, 2006 at 11:32 am#295, Eric, you're right. She was right on the money with pointing that out, and there is a certain validity to bringing out the handicapped/minorities as someone she cannot respond to, something that both Republicans and Democrats are want to do (black Republicans speaking at the RNC on presidential nomination night anyone?). She's obviously at least half-way articulate. If she spent a little time honing her message maybe she could actually bring about some real change by creating the debate. Instead her message was totally distorted by her attitude and bad manners. Frothily, I might add. On top of that, Matt couldn't get a word in during the clip. And you call that debate? Or responding to Ann's vitriol with facts, like another poster announced...how could Matt Lauer give a rebuttal?
But speaking of the debate, what debate? A 9/11 widow knows firsthand the failures of our national security to defend against an attack, all the way down the chain: the FAA, NORAD, Air National Guard, the Navy, the Air Force, the Army, the Coast Guard...all the way down the chain. If you want to refocus the debate why don't we center it on why the hell *every* *single* defense mechanism was disabled and unable to prevent this country from the attacks of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon (!!) on 9/11 in the first place? All of this other shit is just window dressing, but that's where the debate should remain. The Pentagon, of all places, left defenseless?? WHO ARE YOU KIDDING?? I mean PLEASE...WHO BUYS THIS SH*T?
THE FIX WAS IN. THE FIX WAS IN. THE FIX WAS IN.
So far be it for a 9/11 WIDOW, someone who has actually got some skin in the War on Terror game -- instead of her chickensh*t/chickenhawk leaders who have no family members, who themselves have never seen combat -- to speak out against The Greatest Organized Crime Against Humanity in the history of humanity!
Ann and these PNAC jackasses are complicit in the Big Cover-Up, no more no less. Let's get the debate where it should be, and it isn't satisfied completely with the 9/11 Report throwing up its hands and saying "oh well, we don't know what the f*ck happened either" (more of the Big Cover-Up).

June 7th, 2006 at 12:07 pmIf people feel they have to hate someone for what happened on 9/11, choosing to lash out at the widows gives the apparence of baiting the public's attention with another red herring. Why should this president not be called on the proverbial carpet to explain why he started a war with Iraq when the suicide pilots were from Saudi Arabia? The widows and the whole country have a right to know what was and is behind the failed strategy to establish a military installation in Iraq when the war of terror had an entirely different focus and target from the moment it horrendously began on September 11th.

Speaking as a kind-of-conservative,
THere are plenty of wack jobs to keep both sides looking insane and inane.
The funny thing is we're still sitting here yelling at each other, and many of you believe the other side has a monopoly on ad hominem attacks...and you're both right. Ann Coulter may have some interesting things to say, but she's a bombthrower, and that does service to no one.
Then, we have liberals so angry by what she said they're calling Ann Coulter all sorts of not-so-nice things. Honestly, I sit here shaking my head by the insults thrown by both sides. As long as we sit here spewing hatred, the Wizards in Washington will never have to worry about any of us looking behind the curtain.
I don't know if a 3rd party is the answer, but something needs to change in this country, and quick.

Everyone in my middle class neighborhood was going to vote for him including my wife and I, but when he dropped out, (and then jumped back in)we ended up voting for Clinton, as we perceived Perot as flaky. Perot's assertions that people disrupted his daughter's wedding and fired off automatic weapons outside his home only reinforced our thinking that Perot had gone off the deep end. In retospect however, I think he was telling the truth. I firmly believe powerful entities "persuded" Perot to drop out, then once his reputation as a kook was established, either agreed to let him back in the race, or merely ignored him after that, as these entities knew his reputaion was permanently sullied. I believe in my heart of hearts that these entities were shocked to see the number of voters Perot was attracting, and it scared them to think the people of the U.S. might discover they really did have power if united behind one candidate. Well, the rest is history and as a people we plod along divided, weak and ineffective. We had our chance and we blew it; this is why Nader keeps running; he doesn't want the presidency, he wants people to know they have a choice, but they refuse to see. Too scary I guess, to actually have a hand in your nation's destiny; just leave it to the politicians, that's why we elect them, they know what to do, they represent us... Yeah, right...
June 7th, 2006 at 1:55 pmHonestly I have voted Republican a majority of the time, although I did vote for Patrick D. Moynahan as a NY Senator because I thought he was a true intellectual...and I did vote for Perot in '92.
We need a VIABLE 3rd party, and Nader/Perot/Buchanan aren't that.
June 7th, 2006 at 1:58 pmWell Erik, a 3rd party has to start somewhere, and Perot might have been it; he had the right idea about "townhalls", and it might have worked especially given that internet access was right around the corner. One more thing, Republicans are more consistent voters than Democrats, they vote for local issues more regularly, and tend to vote straight ticket(other than your vote for Moynahan). This gives them more power overall, a lesson the Democrats could surely learn...
June 7th, 2006 at 2:18 pmAnn is absolutely awesome. She speaks the truth and those of you who bash her do so because "you can't handle the truth." Close minded bigots come from left leaning liberals not conservatives. Those of you who bad-mouth Christianity, morality, setting rules and following them, and try to make those of us who live for something other than ourselves, are the real threat to America, the human race, and you will pay when the Lord returns. You can deny hell exists but that doesn't change the fact that it does and you are headed for it. Go ahead and live your life for now, because you will have a long time to pay for your narrow minded, ignorant ways.
June 7th, 2006 at 2:19 pmErik, if you want something to change in this country, you can start by voting Democrat. You are contradicting yourself by complaining about the status quo while continuing to vote Republican!
June 7th, 2006 at 2:30 pmDaniel...the war in Iraq is immoral and so are you for supporting it. Both you and Ann will go to hell when you die, because the Lord does not approve of your hatred and immorality.
June 7th, 2006 at 2:35 pmDaniel -- seek therapy immediately.
June 7th, 2006 at 2:37 pmDaniel learn your bible; Christ descended into hell for 3 days; hell is death, non-living; Hades is where bad people like you go... You must be in one of those churches that picks and chooses which parts of the bible fit their dogma then shun the rest... and you are really a good Christian in judging others; you probably cheat on your taxes and believe in the rapture as well...
June 7th, 2006 at 3:03 pm"Ann is absolutely awesome."
If you like crap.
June 7th, 2006 at 3:23 pmLet's not get sidetracked from the laughability or implications of the garbage Ann has been spewing by calling her a trannie and accusing her of having a sex change--besides, the comparison is insulting to any transvestite out there.
June 7th, 2006 at 3:28 pmWho said he had a sex change?
June 7th, 2006 at 3:34 pmHonestly, most of the Democratic platform doesn't appeal to me...and 40 years of Democrats ruling Congress was as mediocre as 12 recent ones with the Republicans. It seems the vocal minorities of both parties are running the show, and it leaves a lot of us in between scratching our heads. Honestly, it seems our political parties are two sides of the same coin. We need a new coin.
June 7th, 2006 at 3:36 pmEric...Granted there are some similarities between the two parties. But do you honestly think that President Gore would have gone into Iraq? That, in and of itself, is a huge difference.
June 7th, 2006 at 3:42 pminre 495: Yeah, like Championship Wrestling! A lot of bluster but no substance, then after the big rumble, retire to the bar to toss back a few drinks together
June 7th, 2006 at 3:43 pmI agree that calling Coulter names is counter-productive. Lets focus instead on what she said. To say that "I have never seen people enjoying their husbands’ death so much" is disgusting on every level. It is an insult to anyone who has ever lost a spouse.
June 7th, 2006 at 3:49 pmWhat to do with Ms. Ann Coulter? Like other right-wing hate-media stars, she's clearly all about character assassination and out-of-context cherry-picked facts and quotes. These media hacks don’t want debate, they want to grab attention. They deal with smears, they know innuendo and hate, that’s what they do. They are the stars of political hackery.
The Left has its own, but they don’t do as good a job, because their heart is less into it, in general, being more concerned with “fairness†and "community", concepts that don't lend themselves well to targeted assassinations of political opponents. The Right does it better, understanding power better, going for the gut better. It’s the difference between the Gore campaign and the Bush mafia in Florida.
This silly argument about the widows is just typical. Coulter is obviously over-the-top rude and hypocritical, spouting false or misleading facts and impressing vast segments of Middle America with her quick (though shallow) tongue and her physique.
Politics is full of hypocritical cant on both sides of the political divide, it’s just that Coulter and her fellow travellers take it to the extreme, and then have the constant gall to accuse more reasonable people of the craziness that she’s the master of. They're masters of hackery. Don't try to compete.
Let her speak, often. Let her on all the media outlets, but pin her, make her explain her b.s.–don’t just let her make wild statements unburdened by a reality check, because then the stupid amongst us will take her as Gospel. She sure sounds confident, like any jerk in a bar on a Saturday night, and she's attractive to some for her quick tongue and her cleavage, and the worst thing anyone could do is to limit her exposure.
The fault is not with Ann--if she keeled over tomorrow there would be 10 more like her, spawn from the same dark place of fear. The fault, really, is with our expectations of journalists and interviewers. We need to make sure they start to do as Matt L. did a bit: repeat her words back to her and have her explain them. Let her rant 'til the cows come home, but hold her to the truth of her statements, and she’ll shrivel in the light of day.
June 7th, 2006 at 3:49 pmI agree that calling Coulter names is counter-productive. Lets focus instead on what she said. To say that "I have never seen people enjoying their husbands’ death so much" is disgusting on every level. It is an insult to anyone who has ever lost a spouse. Shame on you Ann!
June 7th, 2006 at 3:49 pmAnd what, praytell, do you buy hook, line and sinker?
Comment by Erik — June 7, 2006 @ 1:47 pm
What do I buy?
I buy that Ann Coulter is a cheep snake oil salesman and you guys, her obvious devoted minions, suck it up like a cheap canned wine.
THATS what I buy.
June 7th, 2006 at 3:54 pmIn her new book, Coulter says Jews are Christians.
Yea, thats a real peice of "scholary" work she put out there, LMFAO.
June 7th, 2006 at 3:59 pmFor Truth, about the "Coulter for 2008" bumpersticker? LOL. Hammitt, your facts about the "tinker's dam" was most interestin". I just like the way it sounds...
As for Ms. Coulter, I recall her interview on Alex Jones' show July 10th of 2003 (I'm pretty sure I got the year right). Not only did Alex mop the floor with her, I was appalled by her ignorance, either feigned or real. She displayed a woeful lack of knowledge of DOCUMENTED history about Northwoods, Bush family ties to Nazis during WWII, Selective bombing in Germany, Alternative Energy, the so-called "Patriot Act" (which she claimed to be knowledgeable about), the Second Amendment, etc., etc... She talks about "The Left" and "The Right". The Latter = Yet More Japanese Kabuki theater, more Punch and Judy, more WWF Phoniness. I'd rather concentrate on how the Congresscritters, Pollyticians and Bureaucrats have URINATED all over our heritage and Founding Documents. I'm for REAL representatives like Ron Paul... He is a true Constitutionalist. Where have all the REAL Patriots gone to?
And WE are to blame because these CRIMINALS ("Left", "Right", "Liberal" or "Conservative") have PILLAGED our Country while we have SLEPT.
As for the official story of 9/11, the premise of an early episode of Sponge Bob Square Pants has more feasibility than the Fairy Tale sold by Faux News, Limbaugh and their Ilk.
Coulter is a not-so-cheap whore for the Globalists and their Neo-Con operatives. She is entitled to her opinion and she has a right to Hawk her latest book. But for her to attempt to palm herself off as a real authority on the seminal events of our time ???
Give me a break...
She HAS sold her soul to the highest bidder. In fact, I question whether she even HAS a soul... In fact, I can't, frankly, even imagine LIVING her pathetic, sh*tty life for one day...
The Democrats sure as Hell aren't going to save the day and the Republicans have shown themselves to be ANYTHING but the Vanguards of Liberty they so boldly claim to be.
We had better Wake the F**k Up. Fast. Or all is Lost.
P.S. Coulter is living proof of the saying "It's better to be thought of as a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubts".

All I asked was a simple question, and all you have left in your ammo bin is by trying to label me a devoted minion of Ann Coulter. Good one. Way to raise the dialogue.
It seems, based on your comments, what you do buy into is that by labeling people it somehow serves to sooth your ego.
June 7th, 2006 at 4:05 pmAwww
Sounds like someones upset.
Wazza matter Erick?
Truth hurt?
June 7th, 2006 at 4:17 pmCause you know, that one paragraph in her book, the only one I've seen so far, is gonna make her th laughing stock of the religious community, at least the educated half.
She includes Jews with Christians, LMFAO.
June 7th, 2006 at 4:19 pmYou can't make stuff like this up, lol.
This stuff sells itself.
June 7th, 2006 at 4:20 pmNext time you see your headmistress, tell her she should stick to writing about things she knows, like how to skin a deer with a can opener, and what type of cleaning rag to use on her small bore.

Oh didn't I tell you?
June 7th, 2006 at 4:26 pmWhat I really enjoyed was how Ann kept responding to questions with "I don't know."
The poorest display of wonk I've ever seen.
June 7th, 2006 at 4:43 pmThis is going to be wildly unpopular but I went back and read what she (Coulter) had to say and honestly, while she could have delivered the message better I don't necessarily disagree with her.
"These self-obsessed women seem genuinely unaware that 9-11 was an attack on our nation and acted like as if the terrorist attack only happened to them. They believe the entire country was required to marinate in their exquisite personal agony. Apparently, denouncing bush was part of the closure process."
I've said before that New Yorkers tend to think the world revolves around them. And while they did take a direct hit on 9/11 they were not the only ones affected (directly or indirectly) yet they are by far and away the "squeakiest" group. So much so that when 9/11 is brought up, New York immediately comes to mind and it takes a few moments of reflection before you remember The Pentagon and all the airline passengers and their loved ones that took a direct hit. If your not from New York your grief is almost dismissed as being lesser in intensity.
"These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by griefparrazies. I have never seen people enjoying their husband’s death so much."
The above statement would seem to be way over the top and incredibly harsh but, much like Cindy Sheehan, these "broads" are getting their 15 minutes of fame due to unfortunate circumstances. I think they may have started out with the best of intentions but after a few dinner parties with famous celebrities, invites to appear on national TV, speaking engagements in front of adoring persons and meetings with heads of state the intent quickly becomes twisted into a bastardized, self-cathartic characature of what they originally set out to do. I think that saying they are enjoying their husband's deaths too much is incorrect but they certainly are gaining from it, both psychologically and monetarily.
June 7th, 2006 at 4:43 pm15 Minutes claim to fame?
Is that what you think watching your husband join hands with 2 other office workers and leap from the 90th floor of a burning building?
A claim to fame?
June 7th, 2006 at 4:47 pmWell at least you named yourself correctly, Herr Scat.
June 7th, 2006 at 4:48 pmI have always thought that Ann Coulter gets her greatest satisfaction in life by making liberals uncontrollably regress into writhing fits and convulsions. True, she likely gets a charge from her primary target audience but it’s the thought of her secondary market that makes her tick.
I’m certain that if she were to read this site bearing witness to the countless requests for her death, dismemberment, or just expulsion to desert islands that she would feel a deeply warm and soothing sense of satisfaction. You can actually see the vain pulsing in the forehead of this website. Just the sight of her, as evidenced by the majority of the people who posted here, sends most of this audience into a desperate rage of spitting hatred. I just found this to be an interesting social observation.
Oh, and the thought of the impact on liberals from her book vying for the best seller of the year probably makes her giggle herself to sleep at night.

Oh yea, we're just all broken up over Coulter publishing a book that makes her look like a fool, LMFAO.

Not at all what I would think. As I mentioned in my first post, a claim to fame was not what they intended but human nature starts to kick in at some point. Your actions start to speak for themselves and when one starts accepting certain accolades and gifts that come with "celebrity" you have to start wondering about motive and intent. Telling their story to others and getting national recognition gives them a sense of importance and self-worth that they would not have otherwise felt if not for this great tragedy. Much like a person that has been physically injured gains something from capturing the attention of a room full of people by showing them their scars and talking about the incident. In no way will it replace their loved ones but may help blunt the pain.
I'm not trying to lessen their loss but they have gained something from their loss regardless and they are using it to their advantage both politiacally and personally.
June 7th, 2006 at 5:10 pmAnn Coulter is on the same level as a child predator. She preys on the right wing in an effort to line her pockets. She has no morals and can only be stopped by a Dateline sting.

Comment by Scat — June 7, 2006 @ 5:10 pm
What "celebrity" are you referring to? Are the Papparazzi chasing them? Do they have to sign autographs and wear dark glasses?
Are they wining and dining at the White House or at any of the Hollywood parties?
Maybe they'll host the Oscars this year?
June 7th, 2006 at 5:21 pmIf you think giving up your comfy home, travelling around in vans and busses, sleeping in tents, hotels, lawn chairs, eating on paper plates and living out of suitcases is "the high life" , then boy do I have a gig for you.
June 7th, 2006 at 5:24 pmLike I said, at least you named yourself correctly.
June 7th, 2006 at 5:30 pmBut I will tell you, SCAT, what I told her other subservient gnome.
The next time you see your headmistress, tell her to stick to writing about things of which she has some expertise.
Like how to root a boll weevil out from under a sunken double-wide using basic household chemicals, or 5 easy ways to get axle grease out of a polyester blouse.
June 7th, 2006 at 5:38 pmYou know, I'm from Cranbury. You can't walk into the local post office without knowing WHO it was dedicated to, regardless of how "nondescript" the powers that be were attempting to be, in honor of Lisa Beamer's request to not alter the appearance of the post office dedicated to her husband Todd. And truthfully, the man WAS a hero, he deserves it. I should have been at the breakfast at Windows on the World on 9/11. Thanks to my bosses refusal to pay 400 bucks for a networking breakfast, I am here. And every day, I have some degree of survivor guilt. It took me 3 years to throw out the damn ecru colored invitation to that breakfast. My brother, an officer, did a 24 hour bucket brigade at Ground Zero as a volunteer. They are NOT the only ones affected. Granted, these women did not ask to be widows, just as the nation did not ask for 3000+ people to get up, go to work, and never come home, but after spending hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars to answer WHY their husbands died ala 9/11 Commission, are we any safer? Nope. And, we've accorded those directly affected by 9/11 a certain amount of respectful deference because of the fact that they are either widows or widowers of 9/11. That doesn't mean that they have anything valuable to add or contribute. It means their marital status changed, they suffered a horrible loss, and quite frankly, if one is willing to use their marital status to promote a political agenda (go ahead, stump for Kerry girls) they had best be willing to take the shots that come as part of entering the political arena. They used their status to promote their agenda, what's to stop Coulter from using their status to promote HER agenda? Or anyone else? Why not? We gave them a platform. Works both ways. You want to become a political animal, you are subject to the rest of them in the ring. I've met Lisa Beamer. She's taken her grief and used it positively to change the lives of future generations of children in her husband's memory through the Todd Beamer Foundation. She's affecting the future positively. It seems that the Jersey Girls are just screeching blame, not looking to aid in the fixing. Quite a contrast. And I wonder why no other 9/11 survivors, widowers, widows, have come out in support of the 4. While I detest the way Ann Coulter did it, I am reminded that either be part of the solution, or part of the problem. Coulter is neither, and is quite a fool, but then again, have these 4 made the world any better? Not really. Where was their vigilance before 9/11? If it hadn't happened, would they STILL be going about their day as housewives of millionaires? Probably. Think about it. Coulter is horribly blunt, but perhaps these women need to know that there ARE those that don't agree and they might NOT be speaking for all of us.
June 7th, 2006 at 5:49 pmWhat “celebrity†are you referring to? Are the Papparazzi chasing them? Do they have to sign autographs and wear dark glasses?
Are they wining and dining at the White House or at any of the Hollywood parties?
Maybe they’ll host the Oscars this year?
Your definition of celebrity is too narrow. Celebrity - 1: a widely known person; "he was a baseball celebrity" [syn: famous person] 2: the state or quality of being widely honored and acclaimed. As you can see, the word celebrity does not sepcifically mean wearing dark glasses and signing autographs.
With that said, let's see... being invited to Knicks' games and being wildly cheered by the crowd at halftime. Being invited to Good Morning America. Being interviewed by major media outlets (NY Times, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, FOX, Washington Post, yada, yada, yada) where millions will read your story. In Cindy Sheehan's case, yes, she has spent time with many of Hollywood's elite; Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon, Martin Sheen & Michael Moore to name but just a few. These are just a few examples I found by running a Google search. It would not surprise me at all if a number of the 9/11 spouses had also met with some of Hollywood's elite.
As I said before, I'm not trying to denigrate their loss or the overall tragedy but to deny that there was some truth to what Coulter said is to simply be obtuse. She certainly could have used less harsh language but she had a point.

I think the tide is turning against her finally. The article I posted yesterday has had hundreds of thousands of downloads. She'll always have a home on FOX, but more and more conservatives pundits and bloggers are turning on her. I'm glad to be helping in that cause. The more she appears promoting her new book, the faster she will fall.

June 7th, 2006 at 5:59 pmOh don't worry Katy.
Coulter made one big mistake.
She decided to talk about religion.
She decided to talk about it and she banked on her brain actually being able to come up with something intelligent to say about it, without actually having to know anything about it.
I've only seen one paragraph of her book so far, and already she's put her foot right in her big fat mouth, and made herself look like what she is. A backwoods hillbilly who can read and write just enough to make a fool of herself.
June 7th, 2006 at 6:00 pmFLAVIUS,
You're coming across as a troll. And it doesn't seem you've added much to the debate besides name calling.
June 7th, 2006 at 6:03 pmLOL, oh I'm sorry Erik, did I break your concentration?
June 7th, 2006 at 6:07 pmIts not my fault you can't think of anything witty to say to impress your headmistress with so she'll let you hang out in the dungeon for an extra hour or two.
Thats what happens when you get upset slim. Your wittle repugnican brain just sorta, shuts down.
Don't worry, its quite common with you guys.
June 7th, 2006 at 6:12 pmwell, what I think wil be MORE interesting now, is who is going to be jumping up and down on Coulter's back for her comments. Surprise surprise surprise Hillary Clinton (you know, wife of do nothing Bill) is ALLLLL over her. Bashes Coulter AND looks good to the constituants AND distances herself from ooppps "Somalia happened" Bubba. I thinks I sees me a presidential candidate in the gestational stages...Heck, this should result in quite an interesting aftermath, don't you think?
June 7th, 2006 at 6:13 pmErik's concentraion seems to be fine. He recognized what you're about easily enough.

Listen to you guys cry like a couple of little sissies.
You sure like to come in here and dish it out though, don't you?
In here shooting your mouths off about women who lost their husbands in violent deaths but ohhh, stop Worfeus, you're hurting us....oh......stop it.......ow.
You guys slay me.
June 7th, 2006 at 6:24 pmTell your headmistress she did a good job in whoopin you two girls.
Thanks to her tutilege you're gonna make someone a couple of fine wives someday.
June 7th, 2006 at 6:28 pmWhew, some of you guys obviously don't have jobs... Anyway --
Wonderful, heartfelt bullshit. Typical liberal: throw invectives and then complain about mudslinging. If I have to pick one word to describe today's liberals, that word is SHAMELESS. Yuck. Brrrbbrb. Ech. What crap.
