I love Ann Coulter

I just watched Ann Coulter on Hannity and Colmes and she is all that and a bag of chips. She makes no excuses for the schoolyard term.

I may have read too much into the remark or maybe she is scary smart. But her usage of the word faggot is the one we used when I was in grade school. We used to call a kid a faggot that was totally, utterly uncool. Like Wolcott. A loser. You know those kids - the one that ratted you out, or loved being  the hall monitor, the one with the short pants.

She said John Edwards is a wuss, a pussy, a waldo, a geek, a putz, a faggot. He is. She said if he was gay it would have been an epithet, but he is married with children so how can it be an insult?

When asked what she thought of the three presidential candidates apologizing for her remarks, she smirked, why should they apologize for me?  Barack Obama showed spine when he wouldn't apologize for David Geffen's remarks. And, she said, those same presidential candidates are going to be doing a lot of apologizing for her  in the coming year.  Ha!

I disagree with Malkin when she said, "with a single word, Coulter sullied the hard work of hundreds of CPAC participants and exhibitors and tarred the collective reputation of thousands of CPAC attendees." Let's be straight here, nobody was even talking about CPAC until Coulter entered stage right. Now it's all they are talking about.

My point is I hate how the right has completely thrown her under the bus. She is a brilliant, beautiful, acerbic, bright light of the right. The right can't run fast enough the other way. Seems to me they are a bunch of  faggots as well.

CPAC fallout
    Ann Coulter's use of a vulgar epithet for former Sen. John Edwards, North Carolina Democrat, continued to elicit harsh rebukes yesterday, including one from fellow pundit Michelle Malkin, who attended the 34th annual Conservative Political Action Conference, where Miss Coulter made her Friday speech.
    "There are countless conservatives who bring their children to CPAC. It's a family-friendly event," Mrs. Malkin wrote at her Web site, www.michellemalkin.com. "We expect CPAC to be a place where conservative role models speak with clarity, passion and integrity. There are enough spewers of mindless filth, vulgarity and hatred on TV, at the movies and in the public schools. We don't expect our children to be exposed to that garbage at the nation's pre-eminent conservative gathering. ...

    "With a single word, Coulter sullied the hard work of hundreds of CPAC participants and exhibitors and tarred the collective reputation of thousands of CPAC attendees. At a reception for college students held by the Young America's Foundation, I lambasted the substitution of stupid slurs for persuasion ... and urged the young people there to conduct themselves at all times with dignity in their ideological battles on and off campus."

One blogger who refused to join the online chorus denouncing Miss Coulter was Pamela Geller Oshry.
    "The right side of the blogosphere has completely distanced themselves from her," Mrs. Oshry wrote at her Atlas Shrugs blog, www.atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com. "Everyone is shocked, shocked I tell you. Yawn. ... The left's position was made clear by [Massachusetts Sen. John] Kerry's mentioning of Dick Cheney's gay daughter during the presidential debate in 2004."

Yeah baby

UPDATE: BTW, I think this is completely and utterly wrong. Out of control. I don't recognize us. When did we lost our self confidence? This is an organized lynching. Banishing Ann? Have we gone fookin nuts?

UPDATE; I will be discussing this on BlogTalkRadio show tonight. Call me on it (347) 996-3944

AS, thank you, thank you for not sobbing in your Wheaties about Ann Coulter's remark, and yep, the Republicans are a bunch of wusses . . .

[MMMM]

I agree entirely. Does Ann Coulter know what she is doing? Clearly. She is a genius, and one of the best parts about her is she makes the libtards just shake with anger. Malkin on the other hand, I don't know... could there be a little diva jealousy going on? Because honestly, how many people were lining up for how long to hear Coulter as opposed to Malkin? Hey, it's the marketplace of ideas and it looks like Coulter is by far the winner.
And one more thing. Coulter didn't call him a faggot, she said she isn't even allowed to use the word because you're forced to go to homo-rehab if you do. I shouldn't be too suprised at the GOPussies & holier-than-thou Malkin types in favor of leftist policies such as speech-control and political correctness, but the extent of it does raise my eyebrows.
Meanwhile Ann Coulter is laughing at her own genius and I am so happy to be a supporter of her.
And the "coulter cash" Edwards is collecting? Wonderful, it's money out of a libtard who could actually win's pocket. Another point for the conservatives.

[eddie]

Politically, conservatives can't afford such outbursts when the propaganda machines on the left have so much reach -- only libs can say such things and get away with it, because of media complicity. While Coulter's views may be on the right track, great men and women can only be made evident by action and eloquence -- class (not insults).

[Biscuit Frijole]

A photo from the future? June -07?

07?

[MMMM]

Great men and women are made evident by their willingness to tell the truth regardless of consequence. Also, why is everyone out to judge Ann Coulter? Is she running for office? No. Why do people self-appoint themselves to tell Ann Coulter how she should speak- what to say and what not to say. Judging by her success and popularity and by the many, many who hate her, she's doing precisely what she intends to do. In her words (I think) she's doing "Just fine, thank you."
I don't think "try to be as classy as possible, and avoid offending the left" is very high on Ann Coulter's to do list.
And about the liberal media... it's my hope at least that Americans are getting FED UP with it and will use the internet to find out exactly what Ann Coulter is saying-- i.e. the whole context, and think about things independently. That's just what I hope, though.

[JSF]

Pam,

Ann Coulter should not be chastised until Bill Maher is fired from HBO. I am a big believer in civility, but the Left has engaged in scorched earth attacks (i.e. Liberman, Bush or Bolton). Dealing with modern Democrats is like dealing with Palistinians. Their first line of bargaining is "We want to kill you," I suggest two things:

1) Building a coalition of Conservatives to force Maher off the air for his remarks about Cheney and Conservatives. He is friends will Arianna who does not apoligize for anything said about the right.

2) A Volitaire Deal as described here: http://valley-of-the-shadow.blogspot.com/2007/03/volitaire-deal.html.

As the anti-semitism rises on left, there will be more paralells between Palistinians and Democrats. Let's take back the Promised Land from the political terrorists known as HuffPos.

[Underzog]

I think it's good that people are regaining their spine and not rushing to lynch Ann Coulter. The point she was trying to highlight is a very worrisome one issue. This sending of Isaiah Washington to rehab for saying faggot (it was the only way he could've saved his career) is really scary. It's like something out of a Soviet re education camp. In fact, it's evil. That is why Ann Coulter was so effective with her joke. Ridicule is a good way to fight evil and Ann Coulter talking about being forced into Rehab did just that. If this is not stopped by ridicule or some other activism, how do I know that I won't someday be put in re education/rehab for saying the word, Negro? It's a perfectly acceptable word, but in today's context it would not be sensitive enough.

Good for Ann for taking on the evil thing done to Isaiah Washington and good for Atlas for standing by her.

"There's no need to fear; Underzog is here!"

[geo11]

The left has called President Bush every name in the book including murderer, Hitler, terrorist, drunk, idiot and serial liar for years non stop. Ann Coulter makes an observation regarding the use of faggot regarding the 'Breck Girl' and the world is turned upside down. Another example of political correctness run amuck.
We need more Ann Coulter's to shine the light on hypocrisy in our media.

[AGW]

Not only does the left condone name-calling when it comes from their side, but they give Democrat sex offenders standing ovations in Congress. At least they stand up for each other. Why must we constantly bash our own? They don't have to like what Ann said, but why must they huff and puff so? They are going way over the top with their criticism. Sometimes conservatives overplay their "morality card". Lighten up! She is one of our champions, and she certainly doesn't deserve a public dressing-down by conservatives with no sense of humor. Why worry about the dems? We knock ourselves down. And how typical that John-Boy uses this as an opportunity to make more money...and I'm amazed at how weak and spineless he is. This man wants to be the leader of the free world? How can he deal with terrorists if he whines and cries when a girl calls him a name?

[MMMM]

It's not just actor Isaiah Washington, it was basketball player Tim Hardaway, who the NBA banished from the NBA All-Star Weekend in mid-February due to the media's intolerance of (anti-homosexual) free speech.
There are probably more cases that I can't think of off the top of my head. It looks as though the February-March Leftard Crack-down on Free Speech is in full swing!

[x_dhimmi (Deb in OH)]

Oh man, I *do* like that last update.

[Randy]

Well, I am going to have to disagree with you Pamela. Ann is spinning, in context she meant to use the word EXACTLY the same way Isaiah Washington used it ... as a slur.

And she is out of line and wrong. I don't throw her under the bus. I said and say that she is a wonderful, bright and very talented lady. I will continue to listen to her and what she says with regard to politics and culture is important.

Except when she does this stupid schtick (sp?) of purposefully angering as many people as possible. I don't care about attention to CPAC, I care about the issues and when she does stuff like this ... it detracts from actually contributing to the public dialog and diluting it with a circus atmosphere that I think we are all getting quite tired of.

I love the blog candy pic. I love you both and will continue to follow you both ... but on this one Ann is out of line and deserves to be told so.

[BCrago66]

MMMMM (did I get the number of M's right?) has a semi-literate, emotional rant that touches at points on Michelle Malkin, so I guess I'll respond.

Malkin has paid her dues as much as anyone, going as far as having to move to a new home and being twice near-assaulted by lefty freaks at CPAC for her conservative views and for her forceful manner of forwarding them. As for the market for Malkin, besides her books and syndicated column, Malkin has the 2nd most popular political blog by an individual, and the most popular period if you add in her other site HotAir, and additionally note that Malkin's site contains more original content than the putative #1 Instapundit, which later is mostly an aggregater.

Malkin didn't denounce Coulter across the board, and didn't adopt a "holly" attitude, but did take issue with the giant distraction that Coulter's remark at CPAC was from the virtues of conservatism. Coulter can be right in the abstract, but "faggot" is a stupid way to talk from what was once Reagan's podium at CPAC, and Coulter's statement can damage conservatism when it is used against us, as Ann had to foresee it would be.

I'm not sure I agree with Malkin or not - close call for me - but next time, MMMMMM, clamp your cakehole before you try to take on one of your betters like Malkin.

[sheik yer'mami]

Right on Girls!

Don't worry about Malkin. She's alright- but her Miss Manner's shtick is sometimes over the top.

Never back down, never apologize! Remember: Our enemy has NO morals, NO ethics and NO human decency.

By the way: How come Obama can be a contender for the throne if he is not born in the US? If that disqualifies Schwarzenegger then why should Obama be eligible?

[AGW]

Obama was born in Hawaii.

[Webutante]

I think the rush to condemn Ann--on both sides of the political spectrum--shows how far we've gone down the slippery slope of political correctness, which I believe is as great a threat to our freedom as Islam.

And it's a monumental bore.

We no longer have the muscle to allow ourselves to be offended anymore. We demand everyone says only what we agree with and find simpatico.

I personally find some of what Coulter says distasteful. But that's okay, I can still take what I want and leave the rest.

[MMMM]

BCRAGo66:
Semi-literate? Emotional? "Holly?" what? I said "holier-than-thou" how is that "Holly"? A little illiterate are we? “Clamp my cakehole?” Whoa, a little angry are we? Since when does anything "touch at" anything? And what does "...Instapundit, which LATER is mostly an aggregater" mean? Some kind of poetry perhaps? By the way, I love Malkin and have a LOT of respect for her. She's a great journalist with near superhuman courage (I prefer to call it courage rather than the Malkin's crude terms "balls" or "gum-balls.") And like you said, with regards to the amount/frequency of content Malkin produces, she hands down has Coulter beat. I was just musing as to why Malkin has to be so anti-Coulter with her “me me me me me” and “OUR table wasn’t clapping” etc, etc.
"Giant distraction?” Like Atlas said on her post, there *WAS NO* coverage of CPAC before Coulter said the "f-word"! In any case, chill out, BCRAGo66. And I couldn't care less how many MMMMMMMMs I have in my name.

[JCL154]

I enjoy Coulter because I think she is funny and offers great insight in her commentaries. That is not going to change b/c of this. I think our society is too PC, and we need to let people have their say IF THEY ARE INVITED TO SPEAK. I didn't think Ann's remark was funny, but it didn't offend me either.

"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." (Aristotle)

Pam, thanks for posting videos!

[DoctorDentons]

All this dust up proves is that the 'public spotlight' draws more than just moths...it seems that Conservative bloggers have become carnivores and started to eat their own. The Dan Rather episode blew the doors off the 'net' and opened a whole new era for bloggers who, by act or association, gained a certain amount of recognition among their peers and those of us that just comment...that recognition, somewhat like getting elected to Congress, is beginning to pump a big blob of air into that ego balloon, case in point being the CPAC love affair this past week. Never have so few drawn the supposed admiration from the many and the powerful...how dare John McCain not answer their fiat. Most of the people there, at one time or another, had signed Ann Coulters dance card but are now running frantically around letting those within the 'Beltway' and Cable TV that they are no longer going to 'dance with the one what brung ya' but are going to throw her under the bus. Ann Coulter was in at the first and hopefully will be in at the last. I respect Michelle, Laura and others but we don't need a 'mommy'...we need a 'MOTHER----'...if you get my drift, someone to kick ass and take names and maybe not so much of the latter. People say that 'The Beltway Media Spotlight' gets to people...well I guess they are right because once that huge spotlight started shining on what was once a ragtag bunch of irreverent right wing bloggers they have by increments, become TV and Radio personalities and more PC than they would like to admit...they need to let a little air out of that ego balloon.

[IGout]

...they're a bunch of faggots as well

At least we've separated the fighters from the cut & runners. Bravo Pamela!

[barbfaye]

THANK YOU FOR NOT PUTTING YOUR HEAD IN THE SAND. I can always count on you to tell the truth and am so glad you didn't try to bury Ann Coulter. It is so frustrating to watch conservatives with duct tape over their mouths while watching liberals spew out whatever they want. Way to go Pam!

[DoctorDentons]

I just hope that Captains Quarters, Hot Air, Hugh Hewitt, and a host of others, read this particular thread and take a long hard look at what they have become in the eyes of the 'not so much impressed anymore'.
Let me clarify, by Hot Air I don't specifically mean Michelle..look at Brian and AP...Rinos to the max now !

[oldstudent]

As the Anti's have collectively decided they have "capitol" to spend across the US, the Anti's have taken off their gloves for any and all who ARE NOT PC-WHO ARE NOT OF THE PERPETUALLY OFFENDED BREED.
I stood for the NOW. Where are you now?
I stood for the GLSEN. Where are you now?
I stood for the GLTB. Where are you now?
I stood for the "recovering/rehabbing". Where are you now?
When the Anti's took over my city of Madison, WI I knew I and many others of "my kind" were soon to be kicked to the curb-and we are.
At least out here in the ether world, the curb is getting plenty crowded!
Bravo to those who will OFFEND right back at 'em.
I OFFEND by my very existence- I am a smoker, drinker, fornicator, gun supporter, personal property rights believer, eater of meat, driver of a car, gambler, ad nauseum.

Thank you Pam for your "place" in this "world"!

thanks for "listening"

[cube]

Ahhh, finally an unapologetic defense of Ann. I, too, wish republicans had stiffer spines, but they ran away from Ann's comments like a bunch of pansies.

[Michael Babbitt]

I have to disagree with you on this one Pamela for two reasons. First, just because the Left uses name calling is no reason to do the same; you have just conceded that this form of social 'debate' is okay. Didn't anyone hear the aphorism, "Two wrongs never made a righ?" I guess not. Bill O'reilly at least has got that clearly.
Second, and more personal for me: I am not a homosexual -- I am a 52 year old Asperger type individual from a Jewish home in Long Island and, along with my brother, had been severely taunted in my childhood and youth with that word besides anti-semetic epithets. "Faggot" is always associated with a physical threat and my brother and I both have experienced having glass bottles thrown at us from moving cars with the word "faggot" thrown in for good measure. I bet none of you or your supporters of Ann Coulter or Ann herself have suffered from that word. It is a tool of sadists and I associate it with the likes of Saddam Hussein.
I have generally really liked Ann Coulter but her "raghead" remark was offensive to me since many other-than-Muslim peoples and religions wear head coverings. My Masters is in Comparative Religion and I thought that "raghead" to be a slur to many people of religion besides Muslims. But I let that pass because Ann has made many excellent points.
Read the history of the word and how it has become used over time. I was attacked with it over 40 years ago and believe me even then I knew it stood for a homosexual. Why are all of you in denial. This is no way to win the culture war.

[Ripper]

Coulter is an anorexic bomb thrower who is in it only for herself. We should not have to apologize for her as she is a free agent but she should not be invited to any more meetings.

[Ripper]

Michael Babbitt I had not noticed your post. We grew up in the same era and I agree with you - "faggot" was always a hateful term meant to intimidate and humiliate physically weaker people such as kids who wore glasses and actually read books and had trouble fielding ground balls, and should not be a part of any discourse. We do not need an Ann Coulter.

[sor]

Ann Coulter has balls the size of Texas. There is way too much politeness emanating from the left and the right over remarks like these. Where does polite, politically neutered language lead us? The answer is nowhere. A few well-chosen words can have a world of impact. As the author of the controversial, How to Manage Your DICK, I have seen first hand how resistance to even the basic notion of dick management (met with horror on the right and the left) prevents the issue from ever even being put on the collective table of humanity as an issue. AIDS, homosexuality, wife-beating, child molestation and crime can all be attributed in one way or another to a lack of dick management skills.

The fact is that we need to talk about basic issues in terms of virtue and vice. Does anyone even think to reflect these days that the meaning of the word vicious is vice-ridden? By this definition John Edwards is a vicious politian and if the additional label of faggot can be applied, I am all for it. Edwards made his money by being a legal parasite despite his claims that he was doing good for clients. His machinations and the likes of his compatriots are responsible, in part, for the burgeoning costs of health care. Edwards, Gore, Kennedy represent a triumvirate of vicious moral parasites. I will not even begin to speak about those two unspeakably nasty bitches, Pelosi and Feinstein.

[Abu Daboo Doo al Bedrocki]

Pam,

I too love Ann Coulter. Haven't we expected her to say things that get blown waaaaaayyy out of proportion? Her acid wit is part of her public character, and I like her for it.

JSF had it right (thanks for the link to the Valley-of-the-Shadow blog). Ann didn't ask for our enemies (real enemies, not political opponents) to KILL Johnny E (unlike the unhinged leftists over at the Puffington Host and elsewhere), she isn't lobbying for his trial in the Hague (as some kind of international law breaker), she isn't even trying to get him to curb his 'carbon footprint' (did you see the size of his mansion in Orange County, NC?).

That said, I think it was much ado about nothing. Nothing Ann says would make Johnny E like her anyway, so why even try. Self-censorship only helps to make the point of your opponents by eliminating your point of view from the argument.

[Tracy]

"I may have read too much into the remark or maybe she is scary smart. But her usage of the word faggot is the one we used when I was in grade school. We used to call a kid a faggot that was totally, utterly uncool."

So when one of your kids comes home crying that a bully called her a "faggot", you'll tell her it's okay?

My God, you're a dimwit.

[Abu Daboo Doo al Bedrocki]

To Michael Babbitt: I am sorry you were taunted when you were a kid. You probably have the last laugh, as I guess you ended up as a more well-adjusted adult than the a$$h*les who picked on you. The word faggot is a harmful insult when brandished by kids against other kids. It was also a word used when I was a kid. It usually was meant as a synonym to geek, or goody-goody and usually was used by stronger kids against weaker kids. I was the target of the word, sometimes. I used the word against other kids, sometimes. As an adult, I would not like to see my sons use that word (or many of the other mean names we used when I was a kid). There was, however, a magnificent thing that would happen from time to time. When bullies would use that word (or other names), they sometimes would get beaten up and lose their ability to pick on other kids. I was one kid who had a bully for years, he used to pick on me from time to time. It finally came to an end when I stood up for myself (and other friends) and I beat the sh*t out of him. He never bothered me again, and he thought twice about picking on anyone else.

I played in the marching band, and all of us (guys and girls) were collectively called 'Band Fags'. At first it was an insult, and then it wasn't really effective as we all just laughed. Most of the folks who used that word were talentless losers from the breezeway (where all the smokers and miscreants collected in high school).

I guess my longwinded point is this: it is one thing to use a word like that against a fragile kid, but Johnny E is not some awkward grade schooler. He probably sent a thank you card to Ann Coulter, because the insult against him will help him raise money because now he has leftist 'street cred'. Edwards and his friends use the name 'Hitler' against their enemies (political enemies, not those REAL enemies in the middle east who aspire to be like Hitler). Have you ever heard Bush complain about being compared to the architect of the holocaust? I sure haven't heard a peep from him.

I am very sorry you and your brother were picked on when you were kids. You are not alone in that, but at the same time, somebody like Edwards should have thicker skin by now. Ann probably should have called him something a bit nicer, like an ambulance chasing exploiter of the poor. Maybe next time!

[EJO]

Dear Pamela;
I've decided to add my two cents.
I despise political correctness. I hate people who are just standing around waiting to get their feelings hurt. "I,m offended"! "I,m offended"! Shut up, and sit down!
Also; I'm a big fan of Ann Coulter. I have two of her books. "Treason", and "Godless". I think she is very smart, and witty, and clever. She obviously is not afraid to speak her mind, and I like that.
So hooray for Ann!!!
And thank you for sticking up for her.
Sincerely;
EJO

[DoctorDentons]

Ripper: Why not invite her to future meetings ? Do you along with the Left want to shut her up ? Hell, I'll pay her airfare...and you disparage her build, what the hell do you look like, not much I'll wager. If the Left AND the RIGHT can't stomache the word 'faggot' when it is used by the 'bomb thrower' then tough shit...that is why we no longer get the respect we deserve from the other side...we have turned into compassionate pussies and it is deserved...and if one of your kids come home crying that someone called a 'faggot' tell him to go back out on the street and punch the little bastard in the mouth,that usually fixed a bully back in the day...we have become such a party of wimps ! I would much rather be called a 'faggot' than 'compassionate' because being called 'faggot' would give me the excuse to kick someones ass as compared to being called compassionate would just make me ashamed at this point.

[va87]

Ann Coulter is thrown under the bus for going toe to toe with the liberal asshats and calling one.....no, she just actually inferred that one of them is a faggot. IS ANN THE ONLY MAN AMONG US?!?! She smacks back just as hard as they smack us around!And we CRUCIFY her!! What in the good flying hell is wrong with us?! And then, one of the few people who stand up and 100% defend and celebrate Ann is PAMELA!! Where in the hell are the men??
Well Here's one RIGHT HERE writing this! My testicles descended at birth! I'm not afraid to call asshats like Bill Maher or Hillary Clinton or John Kerry the America hating shitasses that they are! Maher is a dim wit wannabe funny man who was convinced by someone along the way that he actually had a functioning brain in his thick skull. HE DOESN'T!! Hillary is a punk-ass bitch political whore who is as red as the day is long. And Kerry? The worst kind! He faked military heroism and took medals that he didn't earn or deserve, then turned on his fellow soldiers. He should have been shot as a traitor. Instead, the brain dead sheep of Mass send him to the senate! Now have I offended anyones sensibilities here? Hurt someones tender feelings? Well GET OVER IT!! We are at WAR in this country against a determined and motivated enemy who wants to see us all DEAD! There are a certain group of people in this country who not only don't care about that, but they actually aid and abet our enemies! Maher, Clinton, Kerry, et. al....I could give a shit what they think or if they are offended!
So Ann....YOU GO GIRL!! And Pamela.....keep on speaking the truth and telling it like it is!
And all of you other men out there.....GROW SOME BALLS!! Stop letting the women on our side stand where you should be standing! GET IN THE FIGHT!!

[John Houghton]

Ann Coulter is an angel!! I just put a blog about her under the 'Bolton' story. My rookie attempt at communicating with you. I love Michelle Malkin also, and as one has already commented sometimes she is over the top. However, these two women have become a force for the left-nuts to handle. Thank God they do it without vitriol and the like.

[cnoname]

Methinks they protest too much. The media feeding frenzy is nothing but BS by the left wing's thought police who seek to eradicate anything they deem politically incorrect. Time for the right to get some backbone and call the lefts bluff by pointing out their phony umbrage.

[DoctorDentons]

va87....if your post and mine don't shake 'em loose a little, they are not worth shaking..and..this country is in deep shit.

[Bubbi]

Thankyou AS--love your blog.
This made me so angry I had to blog it myself.
It almost feels as if these popular right wing blogs have joined the "club" of fame and PC. Sad............
http://grammadebbie.blogspot.com/

[conservativetothebone]

Thanks for sticking up for Ann. This country is getting way weird when someone feels compelled to run and hide in "rehab" for saying a "bad" word and the conservatives who have thrown her under the bus are showing the same amount of back bone they accuse the Republican party of possessing.

[Nick Kasoff - The Thug Report]

Ann Coulter is smart, witty, and entertaining. And with all her media experience, I don't believe she blurts things out unthinkingly. It would have been very easy to say the same thing in a different way, and not draw all the negative attention. She has gotten more buzz out of this, both in the blog world and beyond, than she'd get from a hundred appearances on Fox News. From her perspective, I'm sure, Mission Accomplished.

Nick Kasoff
The Thug Report

[EJO]

Dear Pamela;
And here's another thing. I watched two videos showing Michelle Mulken on the Bill O'Reilly show, and Ann Coulter on the Hannity & Colmes show.
Mulken's got a bug up her ass because she's "offended". by what Coulter said. And she's comparing Ann with Ronald Reagan. That's like comparing Triumph, The insult comic dog, to the Pope. You are dealing with two completely different ways of communicating with people. No one expected Reagan to be a smart ass, anymore than they expect Triumph to be a cute little puppy dog.
Then there's Alan Colmes reading a letter from a "conservative", bitching about Ann Coulter. How does he know where these letters come from? In a letter/E-Mail, you can say anything you want. I can tell you I'm 7ft. tall, I weigh 400lbs., and my name is Billy. I can tell you that I have two heads. Catch my drift?
These people are driving me insane!
Sincerely;
EJO

[Cruz8r]

I gotta disagree with you. We used to call kids fatass and 4 eyes and faggot etc. We were kids. Ann is a grown woman and she is seen to speak for conservatives. I found her remarks offensive on this and the jersey girls issue, although i agree with her point. The big difference i usually see between the left and conservatives is that libs. love to throw schoolyard barbs meant to hurt ones feelings, cons deal with intellectual debate and facts . you all are wrong on this one, and thats a fact.
