I say we muzzel her! See what she thinks about freedom of speech then! Of course she would only last about 3 days without food!
These people like her and those in her audience are unbelievable.
Do they think freedom of speech means only if the speech is what you want to hear?
But then I guess "If a lie is only a lie if you believe it is" (Quote from our favorite troll Paul) - then it doesn't matter.

Is this whining? June of 2001 in Tampa Florida --- Protesters kept at a distance; three arrested
NOTICE the date --- JUNE of 2001 --- this is pre-9/11. George W. Bush was actively squashing Free Speech BEFORE 9/11. WHY?????
[snip] People who parked in the assigned lots and walked to Legends Field to see President Bush probably didn't see many protest signs.
That's because the 150 or so protesters were kept in a cordoned-off "First Amendment zone" about a half-mile away, at the corner of Dale Mabry Highway and Tampa Bay Boulevard. The boisterous group waved signs that read "SAVE OUR GULF" and "Bush oil and our water don't mix."
Inside the ballpark, three demonstrators carrying anti-Bush signs were arrested after they refused to leave, Tampa police spokeswoman Katie Hughes said.
Janis Marie Lentz, 55, of New Port Richey, Mauricio Rosas, 37, of Tampa, and Sonja Haught, 59, of Clearwater, were each charged with trespassing after warning, police said. Haught also was charged with disorderly conduct because police say she tried to resist arrest.
Walter Sorenson, 81, of New Port Richey was knocked down after police shoved one of the arrested women, he said. He suffered a cut on his head.
Sorenson said he was carrying an anti-Bush sign too, but put it in his pocket when told to.
"I asked them (security) how come everyone else could wave Bush signs and we couldn't have our signs," Sorenson said. "They said, "You don't make the rules. We make the rules.' "
Hughes said police were only enforcing Secret Service policy.
"They said that you can't be within eyeshot of the president with those signs because it's a security issue," Hughes said. "Most of this is bigger than us. ... We work within their parameters."
A half-mile away, demonstrators shared disgust for the Bush administration and plenty of non-sanctioned signs. They included Florida Democrats, the Sierra Club and other environmentalists, the National Organization for Women, gay and lesbian alliances, and student groups. [snip]
Remember dumbya's famous quote:
"If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator."
--- George W. Bush Dec 18, 2000

I think we can take a more productive tack with Mr. Coulter. Perhaps our pundits and politicos could start uniformly referring to him as "the mainstream Republican spokesperson Ann Coulter." Let's drive the tightie-righties nuts by forcing them to disavow him. Can't you imagine the pompous umbrage of a Richie Reed or Billy Kristol barking, "You know perfectly well Ann is a howling laboratory experiment and infotainment whore! She was NEVER one of us! Just, you know, useful."
By the way, can somebody tell me why the rite lite keeps referring to him as a woman? I mean, they kind of look like breasts, but surely he just has a lot of poorly tailored shirts? :rolleyes:

Remember, it's not about (the fake) left or right but about right and wrong.
Hate-able examples of humanity such as Bush and Coulter are intended to distract us and divert us by (un)appealing to our values. When our heads are too full of emotions for us to keep our focus, the propaganda merchants have succeeded, and so if we come to feel too strongly about Coulter, that tends to hurt us, not her.
As more and more people recognize the scale and scope of the huge lies we've all been fed by the feds, I should think that it would be sufficient, and more effective, to just calmly point out how anti-Constitutional (and, dare I say, unAmerican) these master deceivers really are.

Like I have said before - as a Christian, I have an instinctual empathy for [some] conservative values.
This woman does not exemplify what I was raised to believe as conservatism - rather her vision speaks to that which is most ractionary and primitive (and dare I say - if Jesus were here, now, he would be tossing her and her ilk from the temple).
Jesus warned those of us who are wont to cast stones. Ann is obviously struggling with demons; but that does not make her a Christian. Christianity is humility, honesty and compassion - and living in a state of open honesty before the Lord God.
He taught us that every person is beloved. Ann doesn't seem to get that part of the "doctrine."

Coulter is not to be taken seriously. What she is, basically, is a professional wrestler doing what they call in the business, "cutting a promo." I'm sure you've all seen a wrestler or manager doing an interview where he or she says the most outrageous things to get the crowd worked up. That's Cutting A Promo and it's precisely what Coulter does.
She has no power other than to piss liberals off. After all, the assholes she's talking to already agree with her ridiculous opinions. She HAS to be laughing every time she collects a check from one of these groups for saying patently ridiculously things.
The way to handle her is to laugh at her. She's a joke, a clown.

once in awhile Coulter do something worthwhile. Read the following blog entry
'Here, Coulter deftly explains why people like Hugh Hewitt and the nine republican senators who voted against the McCain amendment can plausibly be accused of "fawning deference" to George W. Bush:
First, Bush has no right to say "Trust me." He was elected to represent the American people, not to be dictator for eight years. Among the coalitions that elected Bush are people who have been laboring in the trenches for a quarter-century to change the legal order in America. While Bush was still boozing it up in the early '80s, Ed Meese, Antonin Scalia, Robert Bork and all the founders of the Federalist Society began creating a farm team of massive legal talent on the right.'

If I'd known that crazy bitch was coming here I'd have baked a pie (to throw at her). Naturally, our local "mainstream" rag (and NYT affiliate if I'm not mistaken) didn't report on it until after the fact. I guess they were afraid of starting trouble, because our little town is a notorious progressive enclave here in the Sunshine State (the Peoples Republic of Gainesville, it's often called). Just had to jump in and defend our reputation - it's probably one reason Coulter came here, besides the money. She lives to piss off progressives.

Dear Brad,
I hope this is the last moment of fame you are willing to give to the person who calls herself ann coulter. People like her, rush, hannity, and the other venomous reich-wingers who spew their hateful rhetoric against the imaginary group they have labeled "liberals" deserve nothing less than to be silenced and shunned.
They follow the dark plan engineered by eye-of-newt gingrich. He took a very powerful and successful psychological tool (which was developed partially from the work of Milton Erikson, MD - a clinical hypnotist) and used it in a corrupt way against ALL American Citizens.
Gingrich, with the help of a NLP practitioner, put together a manual that was sent to EVERY Republican who held a position of leadership, across the country. This happened in the 1980s.
The manual gave a list of unfavorable words that would ALWAYS be used to described Democrats --- AKA LIBERALS. Gingrich told his Republican henchmen to memorize the list of negative words and to use them faithfully in order to disempower ALL who were NOT Republicans.
This is not a joking matter. This is EXACTLY the kind of mind-manipulation Josef Goebbels used in Nazi Germany during the 1930s.
We need to continually remind ourselves (and educate others) that this is all part of the Gingrich/Rove Republican Playbook. They are very serious about being able to manipulate American Citizens, and as you can see --- it has been working quite well for them.
This has become the LANGUAGE of journalists in print and over the airwaves and has hypnotized not only Republicans but also affected non-Republicans ... successfully changing their opinion of themselves into a negative image.
I believe once this EVIL plan is totally EXPOSED, ALL American Citizens will be extremely angry that they have been used and manipulated in this way.
Study up on NLP and Milton Erikson, MD. Learn about the Power of Words. Are you familiar with Tony Robbins? He uses NLP. NLP is marketed as a way of having power in your own life and over others and is sold to people who want quick results.

The irony of it all this: There is no distinct line between the alleged "right" and the alleged "left" in anyof this. It is all political prestidigitation to keep us all in a dither. Sort of like the false wars between Oceania and her "enemy" in Orwell's "1984." Another analogy is Hegelian dialectic: whereby the thesis is set: The bad guy/galin this case,The antithesis is the repression of the bad gu/gal, hence the synthesis is control over thought and action as the two are ultimately related.

So Big M #70, you get a grip. Albert #69 she doesn't have an anticon mission, except to the extent that she has a more and more narrow following as she goes along. She is a neoCon and is self defeating. So to that extent she is anticon, but in no other way.
Knorton #64,#65, as if having an agenda is a wrong thing. Having a criminal agenda like this administration and its criminal lackies is what the complaint and indictments are about o slow one.
Ann doesn't know enough about free speech to have an opinion, and that is why she charges and cares nothing for it. That is about the depth of her understanding of free speech. Commercial Ann.
Kira ... enjoyed your post. I notice that bu$hit in your post # 4 only likes dictatorships when he is the dictator ... but that is not true. One of his favorites is Saudi Arabia where women can't drive and a whole host of things even our American slaves could have done.
He said today or yesterday "they were only trying to embetter themselves ..." which is an old word. His policies and speechs are getting old in the bad sense of old.
That old bu$hit doesn't look any better dressed up as Ann "the young man" Coulter.

I think when we say it's just entertainment, just business, we are playing right into their hands.
That's what *they* say when they want to weasel out of something.
I pointed out one instance in my previous post (#63) where the neocons are limiting free speech. There are many other examples. So, when Ann Coulter calls for repression of free speech, it's not a joke. When the audience applauds, it's not a joke. It's happening, and Coulter, whether she's just in it for the money or not, is on the public front lines.
The question is how best to deal with her (and others, of course). Laugh her out? Anyway, we have to hold her to what she says and the implications and don't help her weasel out.
None of these fools can stand a debate. The only way they can survive is by making the rules. There is no reason we have to play by those rules.

Yes, Arry. Think about the class-clown troublemaker in school. They ALWAYS try to keep joking and claiming that it was all just a joke right up to the point that they get sent to the principal's office.
This is exactly the same situation. Right now the troublemakers are holding the power. They are the schoolyard bullies.
It's not a joking matter when hundreds of thousands of people have lost their lives. It's not a joke when people's votes are not counted or manipulated. It's not a joke when the Geneva Convention is overturned and people are mercilessly humiliated and tortured. It's not a joke when our poorest and most elderly are thrown aside as if they were a pile of garbage. It's not a joke when our environment is raped and pillaged in order for fat-cat elites to make more on their already obscene profits.
I could go on and on, but those who are already paying attention know the list.

Knorton and the rest of her/his pals are just squirming like worms in hot ashes over the latest poll results for their crumbling regime:
NBC-WSJ poll shows only 28 percent believe U.S. headed in right direction
[snip]
48 percent want Democratic-controlled Congress
In addition, with 13 months until the 2006 congressional elections, 48 percent say they prefer a Democratic-controlled Congress, compared with 39 percent who want the Republicans to control Capitol Hill. In fact, that nine-point difference is the largest margin between the parties in the 11 years the NBC/Journal poll has been tracking this question.
But Hart argues that Democrats aren’t necessarily responsible for this margin. "It is not that Democrats have done so well," he said. "It is that people are disgusted." McInturff puts it this way: "People are very turned off and unhappy with the state of play in American politics."
... Because of this generally sour attitude, the NBC/Journal pollsters doubt that Bush will be able to climb out of his standing anytime soon. "His trampoline [is] made of cement," Hart said. [snip]
So!!! Squirm away little worms!

You liberals have no clue why your message never gets across to the majority of Americans. It's because instead of bringing up some valid points and arguements, you sink to slander and lies. Like your idol Micheal Moore, you get on the right track but then get lost because your hatred for any person who disagrees with your point of view takes over your message. Most americans will listen to both sides and make judgements themselves, however, the far left is associated with the democrats so much that conservatives will continue to get elected. To most Americans, it is percieved as anti-American talk because you seem to care more about your point of view instead of the good of the country! Bush, a dictator and terrorist?-thats a great example of why you people are not taken seriously

By the way Kira, when I do research, its from legitimate sources and the research is based on fact not bias! Have you ever served in the military? Have you ever had coffee with a terrorist? how do you know they deserve rights afforded other troops? If you did serve in the military how would you feel if you had to guard someone who just killed the troop beside you? your friend? would you treat them with respect? make them lunch? do their hair? Would you do the same if you knew that given the chance that terrorist would kill you and your family without worring about how us "americans" felt about him? Its people like you that have made this war more difficult to wage. Do you have proof there was "voter repression"? why do you only look at and comment on things that don't mirror your views? Do you ever talk about how the democrats bought votes in the 2000 election? it happend in Milwaukee, WI. Democratic pollsters were buying cartons of cigarettes for homeless people if they went out and voted for Gore. Bet you did not know that. hmmm, I wonder how much more of that was done. Way to look out for the welfare of the homeless, buy them smokes!!It was never really reported because most of the media is bias anyway. I listen to all views and form my own opinion, if you are going to disregard a point of view, you better be willing to disregard your own!!

The mere fact that they pay this woman to "entertain" shows they aren't the brightest crayons in the box. Poor righties don't even know they've been played big time.

Robert Koehler's written another excellent article:
'Name This Body Part'
If Iraq is a democracy, why can't it vote to kick the U.S. out?
By ROBERT C. KOEHLER
Tribune Media Services
October 20, 2005
[snip] “From the beginning of the occupation, the U.S. has consistently portrayed each new milestone toward Iraqi ‘sovereignty’ as being vital for undercutting the insurgency and terrorism,” Salim Lone, the U.N.’s former communications direction, writes for Global Viewpoint. “In practice, the opposite has always occurred, as each attempt to provide Iraqi legitimacy for occupation institutions enrages more Iraqis and the level of violence exceeds all previous levels.”
So now we have an increasingly desperate President Bush, even as he peddles the progress of his mission to a skeptical and dismayed American public, preparing us for war over the long haul against a stateless yet unbelievably powerful enemy that wants to establish “a radical Islamic empire that spans from Spain to Indonesia.”
Guess what, Mr. President? We’re creating this enemy with every arrogant blunder we make. And we never learn.
Thus on Oct. 16, the day after the referendum, U.S. warplanes and helicopters bombed two villages near Ramadi, killing some 70 people, at least 39 of whom, according to witnesses, were civilians. In the strike on one of the villages, Albu Fahad, 18 children died. The kids had been tossing rocks at a burned-out Humvee when an F-15 unloaded on them. Are these the insurgents we’re taking out?
At the hospital in Ramadi, “distraught families fought over body parts severed by the air strikes, as grieving households laid rival claims to what they believed to be pieces of their loved ones,” the Washington Post reported.
Oh yeah, the paper also noted that the military, in a prepared statement, “said it knew of no civilian deaths.” And, what a surprise, “Residents and the U.S. military gave sharply different accounts of the air raid.”
But we’re bringing them democracy. [snip]

This poll goes with the story linked above:
A "secret military poll commissioned by senior officers"
These are the major findings from the secret MoD poll as published in The Daily Telegraph:
#
• Forty-five per cent of Iraqis believe attacks against British and American troops are justified - rising to 65 per cent in the British-controlled Maysan province;
• 82 per cent are "strongly opposed" to the presence of coalition troops;
• less than one per cent of the population believes coalition forces are responsible for any improvement in security;
• 67 per cent of Iraqis feel less secure because of the occupation;
• 43 per cent of Iraqis believe conditions for peace and stability have worsened;
• 72 per cent do not have confidence in the multi-national forces.

I'm as guilty as anyone, but I'd like to issue a plea to the entire forum. PLEASE STOP TALKING ABOUT ANN COULTER!
This gnashing of teeth we're engaged in, dissecting each of her outrageous statements and arguing against them, is exactly what she thrives on. She calls it "liberal talk," then she goes somewhere and gets paid a fortune for speaking against us to mean-spirited people, many of whom are friendless and/or embittered by life, sequestered somewhere in Florida and waiting for their children to call.
We're better than that, folks. Ignore Ann, please. To put it in Vietnam-era language, "What would happen if Ann gave a speech and nobody came?"

When I was in NY this weekend, a friend (liberal) and I discussed the liberal reaction to Ann Coulter and I am just so flabberghasted at how the left leaves their buttons pertruding out and stand there allowing every single Coulter comment to be used as a baseball bat that pushes those same buttons. Ann Coulter, by suggestion of this thread, and the previous thread which mentions the unknown "conservative" that wants to "expose" Ann Coulter. LOL. What's there to expose? What "taken out of context" quotes of hers are they using in this new documentary coming out that Alan Colmes, or Katrina Vandenheuvel have not addressed and Ann refuted to their faces. Not to mention Al Franken's "Liars and the Lying Liars who tell Them" which devoted an entire chapter to Ann. His evidence? 4 mistakes that Ann had acknowleged and had corrected in her books way before Franken's book was even completed...LOL.
As a non-partisan who really doesn't care too much about this, I have to say....the left really is getting crazier and crazier. They can't convince America in attacking the President so they go after a commentator.
Her books are filled with thousands of facts, and people are buying them in masses. I guarantee, the left continuing to shine a spotlight on her will do nothing but make her next book the most successful one yet.
The best "revenge" is to ignore her. Debating her is impossible for liberals. Not one has been able to defeat her, she's to clever, knows too many big words, and is knowledgeable of constitutional law and of politics.
But shining a spotlight on her only makes people curious, which then leads them to reading the rhetoric-filled quotes. Yes they are biting, however when the rhetoric is stripped away, you will see there lies an argument that liberals are unable to win.
People aren't stupid, by now we all know the left's art of taking things out of context, removing entire passages or switching small words to allow something to be presented in a different light.
Then those subtle differences get glossed over as if there is absoultely no difference to mischaracterize the conservative movement in an effort to avoid dealing with the bigger ideas. It is so transparent and the left needs to become more clever and sophisticated if they are even going to begin to affect Coulter in the way that they would like to.

LOL I like how you switch the term from "liberal" to "progressive". My only problem with that statement would be is: not knowing what kind of "progress" the "progressives" are seeking.
And if you have a clear definition of it, how do you possibly think that hurling pies at Ann Coulter by college liberals is "progressive"?
Not just Coulter, but Horowicz, Buchanan, and many other conservatives who have had food thrown at them.
Conservatives are not throwing pies! Michael Moore is even asking for them (LOL). Conservatives have the ability to stick around to debate.
Your little cut/paste/edit effort was cute, but sort of alligns you with the same debating techniques as the pie throwers.

Well that's normal of liberal, oh excuse me, "progressive" types. Seems to me you have adopted the typical liberal attitude of "our side always wins" and "your side is going down".
My whole point is in terms of what is in the country's best interest, that debating Ann Coulter is ridiculous. Liberals attack her and say the most horrible things, (scroll up and read all posts including your own), at the same time allow themselves to become enraged with anything this woman says.
I'm sure I know why, and most others do as well. It comes along with the attitude of "your guys will go down"....Ann Coulter has 4 NY Times bestsellers under her belt. The rest of these liberals who seem to be obsessed with her, or the "conservatives" who are seeking attention by claiming they are against her have nothing. If she goes down, it certainly isn't going to be by these pointless ranters.
Bill Maher, Katrina VandenHeuvel, Michael Moore, Al Franken, Alan Colmes, Ellis Hennican...they have been trying to debate her for years now. She's still in the arena.
I urge liberals to either ignore her, or productively counter her arguments. These tactics only glorify her.

WHAT'S ALL THE FUSS?
"Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we? Was it or
was it not started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores on
September 11, 2001? Were people from all over the world, mostly
Americans, not brutally murdered that day, in downtown Manhattan,
across the Potomac from our nation's capitol and in a field in Pennsylvania?
Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible,
burning or crushing death that day, or didn't they?
And I'm supposed to care that a copy of the Koran was
"desecrated" when an overworked American soldier kicked it or got it
wet? Well, I don't. I don't care at all.
I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in
and repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11.
I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle
East start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere possession
of which is a crime in Saudi Arabia.
I'll care when Abu Musab al-Zarqawi tells the world he is
sorry for hacking off Nick Berg's head while Berg screamed
through his gurgling! , slashed throat.
I'll care when the cowardly so-called "insurgents" in Iraq
come out and fight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion
by hiding in mosques.
I'll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up
in search of nirvana care about the innocent children within range of
their suicide bombs.
I'll care when the American media stops pretending that
their First Amendment liberties are somehow derived from international
law instead of the United States Constitution's Bill of Rights.
In the meantime, when I hear a story about a brave marine
roughing up an Iraqi terrorist to obtain information, know this:
I don't care.
When I see a fuzzy photo of a pile of naked Iraqi
prisoners who have been humiliated in what amounts to a college hazing
incident, rest assured that I don't care.
When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when
he is told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take
it to the bank that I don't care.
When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a
prayer mat, and fed "special" food that is paid for by my tax dollars,
is complaining that his holy book is being "mishandled," you
can absolutely believe in your heart of hearts that I don't care.
And oh, by the way, I've noticed that sometimes it's
spelled "Koran" and other times "Quran." Well, Jimmy Crack Corn and ----
You guessed it, I could not have said this any better myself!
