Dear Laura,

Are you now willing to admit…in a court of law…that all Republicans are idiots?

Are you willing to take a lie-detector test?

I used to listen to Laura Ingraham’s podcasts via iTunes, both because it’s important to “know your enemy” and for pure entertainment value. Since Obama’s election, she has become increasingly MORE shrill and obviously unhinged. I recently deleted her podcasts from my lineup as she now is simply over the top.

May God have mercy upon Maria, her adopted daughter from Guatemala.

And conservatives thought they were so funny when they ridiculed the looks of nine year-old Amy Carter and twelve year-old Chelsea Clinton.

There were more viewers watching Beck’s 5pm show than watched the entire prime time (8-11pm) lineups on CNN and MSNBC. -90in6

Yes, but America has a population of some 300 million which means 299+ million had better things to do than watch Glenn ‘Dr Jack Daniels’ Beck. Besides that, even with all these ratings about some pundit popularity contest people keep spouting, the GOP has been losing since 2006…

McCain writes a column critical of Coulter. Ingraham calls her fat. McCain sez kiss her butt. Ingraham sends out an email blast which begins with… the left?

WTF does this have to do with us? More hypocrisy from the Personal Responsibility crowd blaming everyone else in sight.

I love this – Ingraham and her cohort Coulter are contributing to the realization that rightwingers are cruel and meanspirited.

The fact is Laura “she-wolf of the SS” Ingraham is incapable of producing satire or comedy. She uses the fig leaf of satire for her meanness, her hate. Worst yet, she is handicapped by her second rate mind and is incapable of teh funny, except the unintended.

This is the thing that kills the right-wing pundits. They slip off-base and savage (to coin a phrase) themselves.
As long as they’re just fluffing up the far-right-angrycrowd, they’re just fine. Their audience loves them, and most people don’t pay attention. The MSM runs the teeniest bit of interference for them, and the Machine works.
But then Rush goes after Michael J. Fox, mocks his Parkinson’s, demonstrates his complete ignorance of the disease, and, further, that he couldn’t care less.
A lot of people now know Rush for that incident alone.
And now Laura goes after the Republican candidate’s daughter by calling her ‘plus-size’. And when the daughter fights back, Laura won’t back down, and attacks–the liberals.
People know less about Laura than about Rush, so this is going to be 90% of her public image from here on in.

Coulter didnt take on Meghan McCain’s challenge, I wonder why this never-heard-of-wanna-be Laura Ingraham is talking a LOT now.

So Coulter is the Santelli in this scenario, and Ingraham is the Cramer…

Laura, no one on the left is indignant. The only one who is indignant is Meghan McCain. The rest of us are just enjoying the catfight.

As a member of the “left”, I’d just like to say that I have no “indignation” (Who is this Ingraham person? From a clip I saw on TV, she’s Ann Coulter’s wannabe sister?) despite the fact that I’m a fat girl myself, but I am amused by the infighting on the right.

Laura wants some publicity. She probably has aspirations for office. Coulter didnt take on Meghan McCain’s challenge, I wonder why this never-heard-of-wanna-be Laura Ingraham is talking a LOT now. She has nothing important to say just like the rest of republican hicks. And let’s face it, McCain was f****ed up the a** by the repugs because he is a decent man just like her daughter. Look how the repugs handled his campaign. Now, who’s running the GOP?? Racist bigot hicks.

Beck’s “We Surround Them, You Are Not Alone” 5pmET special, featuring a studio audience and viewing parties around the nation, was the top-rated show on cable news in the A25-54 demo last Friday, with 993,000 viewers. In fact it was the #1 show in that demo for the month of March. Beck was a close second to The O’Reilly Factor in Total Viewers, 3.07 million v. 3.19 million.

There were more viewers watching Beck’s 5pm show than watched the entire prime time (8-11pm) lineups on CNN and MSNBC.

I have a feeling Glenn is just fine.

Well, that explains why some Americans remain stupid when we find out they will stay home on a Friday night to watch an Evil Muppet subliminally telling them to form armed militias against the American people.

What you don’t know is the American people are sick of all of you and it’s YOU who make our nation unsafe!

This a woman who continues to swallow the “Iraq was involved in 9-11″ bullshit Bush and his neocon handlers sold to this nation has lost a lot of crediability with me.

Laura is a cancer survivor and really not all bad. She has to be loving the outcry…otherwise she couldn’t get arrested.

honestly, do you expect any better than hypocrisy from someone who writes books rallying against elistism yet proudly crows in her bio on the book’s back cover she graduated from dartmouth?

This doesn’t involve the left. Meghan McCain replied to Laura Ingrahm, I listened to her(LI) and no explanation was needed. It seems to me that the two loudest republican women who are really making the party look bad are Ann Coulter and Laura Ingrahm. They are part of the reason that the party is becoming irrelevent. Even when I agree I can’t tolerate that kind of hatred toward people, toward my fellow Americans. They sure seem threatened by McCain, as they should. They say the absolute meanest things about people and then throw in Religion while they are still being really mean.Ingrahm sometimes appears to be wearing a crucifix that she took down from her wall around her neck to make her point. Sisters used to tell us to put Jesus closer to our hearts by covering the chest with clothing. Not that you shouldn’t wear anything that shows your chest just don’t wear your crucifix when it shows. Grace is suppose to come from within. I don’t really think Jesus wants to be involved in politics. He is really above all of this! McCain is reasonable and smart, we need more of both and she seems to be what young republicans are looking for!
