Get. A. Grip.
I expect Letterman to bash Ann Coulter. However, what’s really disgusting is that practically every right-wing blogger has jumped on the “Ann Coulter was out of line” train.
Does this remind you of the equally disgusting “I won’t criticize her, and you shouldn’t either” reaction to Cindy Sheehan when she first started spitting on her son’s service to further her personal agenda? It should. The women to whom Ann referred are doing exactly the same thing as Sheehan, and deserve the same scorn.
And all you bloggers who are expressing your self-righteous anger at Ann need to be smacked. Hard.
STFU. Ann is right. You’re wrong. And at least Misha agrees with me.

I have to say that I agree with you. Using the death of loved ones for political purposes is one of the slimiest things one can do. The howling of these women has drowned out anything the families of other victims might have to say. They seem to forget who was to blame for their husbands’ deaths: not George Bush, not our government, but AL-QAEDA TERRORISTS! Ann’s commentary may seem harsh, but she is right on the money. (My husband and I usually agree about these things, but this time he feels she is out of line…)
I agree.
Jesus, even Bill O’Reilly has condemned The Bitch’s statements, and still she finds ample idiotic defenders on the right, none of whom seem to be able to make the simple distinction (that a few sane conservatives are able to see) that even IF she has a valid point, there’s simply no excuse for the WAY she said it. It’s so obviously reprehensible that to explain to you idiots why it’s offensive would be pointless. The numerous wingnut bloggers defending her and the vitriolic comments on the rightie blogs that condemned her prove that for many wingnuts, there is simply no line that shouldn’t be crossed as long as it promotes their own political ideals. Maybe you, Coulter, and Malkin could start a new political party and get Fred Phelps to be your presidential nominee- now there’s a guy who’s not afraid to slay sacred cows to get his point across.
There’s no reason to argue with moonbats. Just let them spew, and they hang themselves.
Name calling is bad and unintelligent? You do, uhm, actually read Ann Coulter don’t you? Or are you really just that obtuse?
Maybe it’s just the names I used. Maybe if I called people the things Coulter does, like widows “witches” and Muslims “ragheads”, you’d find my comments more “intellectually convincing”.
Watch as Little Miss Coulter leads all her faithful sheep over a cliff into an abyss of intellectual and moral bankruptcy. Baa! Baa!
I’m not much for Coulter’s style, in general. She’s sort of the Maureen Down of the Right: more flash than substance. But yes, these widows are using their husband’s deaths to give meaning to their lives. Is that wrong? Maybe not. But I don’t see how having had intercourse with somebody who was in the wrong place at the wrong time suddenly gives you extra moral standing or insight to criticise the government.
To quote Keith Olberman….
Appearing in Playboy and getting divorced ….neither of those being scenarios Ann Coulter is ever going to have to deal with in her life.
And why would you want to quote an anti-American wackjob like Olberman?
Because it was funny?
Strange she never married.
She never married because, quoting Austin Powers “She’s a man, man!” Look at her “adams apple” next time you see on TV and see what I mean. If she turns out to be a tranny, no doubt every right wing nut job will still maintain their secret crush on her/him.
Thanks for sharing your sexual fantasies. Try not to do it here.
Where’s my Zantac …
Tranny or not, I have never understood the claim that Coulter was “hot”. She’s just never appealed to me in that way. Different strokes I guess.
And I hope y’all figured out that my fingers were brain-dead above, and I meant Maureen DOWD.
And here McCullough gets it: the Jersey Girls as human shields.
Anyone who takes a tragedy, especially a personal one and turns it into an attention getting scheme for their own agenda is a flake, to put it nicely.
Yeah, nobody on the right has ever used the tragedy of 9/11 to push their own agenda. Bush certainly has never used 9/11 to push his own agenda, just like he never linked Sadam and Al-Qaeda again and again in his push for HIS war.
Wouldn’t be hilarious if one of the Jersey Girls with Mob ties had Coulter “taken out” a la Tony Soprano? Now that would be funny. Just ask Jimmy Hoffa wherever you are?
ann the great! love her style.
