I am hoping more and more Americans see this kind of BS and say "No thanks!" to the Party of No. You know, considering the climbing rate of obesity in this country (hey, thanks government for subsidizing that sugar crop but not fruits and veggies) think how many listeners and voters Ingram is alienating by picking on a smart, pretty intelligent Republican simply because of her weight.

Because that's where you belong. For you to equate physical size with political passion, especially when it comes to a Presidential candidate's daughter is unbelievable. Either you are incredibly stupid or incredibly naive. I'll leave it up to your faithful listeners to discern the difference. Eat a twinkie and take the stick out. You are beyond disgusting.

There is a mean streak in her that comes from deep inside. Throughout her career, she has spent a lot of energy doing her best to bring harm to other people. At Dartmouth, she secretly taped meetings of the campus Gay Students Association, and sent copies of the tapes to participants’ parents. She was a leading member of the anti-feminist Independent Women’s Forum. Ingraham assisted in the “Women for Judge Thomas” campaign that supported Thomas' appointment to the Supreme Court and promoted attacks on Anita Hill. She later went to work for Judge Thomas as a clerk. In late 2004, when 380 tons of explosives were discovered missing from a munitions site in Iraq, Ingraham was among several conservative pundits to blame the troops and not the Pentagon. In response to the suggestion of Today show host Katie Couric that Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld apologize or resign in the wake of the Abu Ghraib scandal, Ingraham said: “How about Matt and Katie apologize for that lame show they put on every day?” Ingraham makes mean-girl remarks about Meghan McCain, but I suppose she thinks Rush Limbaugh is trim, fit, and the epitome of conservative manhood. Trips to the Dominican Republic for Viagra-enhanced man-boy love notwithstanding. I have always thought Laura Ingraham was far more vicious than Ann Coulter.
