Ann Coulter's shortest interview ever

Whatever happened to freedom of speech? No one speaks for me, not even my wife, much less Ann Coulter. I suggest you ease up on worrying about whether what someone else says reflects on you.

If you think anything I said is a threat to freedom of speech you are beyond help.

Maybe BGB is the smarter one between you too.  I still think the trained ape would be easier.



Where have I said I wanted her stopped? As I said before, she has every right to spew her drivel and that’s what makes this nation great, but having the right doesn’t make her smart or right. All I have said is, I wish she would shut up because she makes herself and conservatives look bad.  

There is a difference, but I am getting tired of writing in crayon for you guys.

Saying “Jesus shut up you idiot” is far different from saying “hey government shut her up”. The later is not something I would ever wish for.

Now I am getting tired of repeating myself.

For both our sakes, start at the beginning of this thread, read my replies, then try and come up with something new if you really feel the need to keep going on this.

Also try it in other threads, you won’t look as silly.

See GtoRA2?

You done gone and made him cry!

But jesious.... Where's your sensitivity? Your sense of humanity?

Guys like lukster have feelings too.

You have expressed a lot of animosity. If you aren't afraid of Ann Coulter reflecting on you then why do you go on so? I'm not worried about you denying anyone their freedom to speak. I was trying to point out to you that you should recognize this and not worry so much about what anyone else says. Oh well, you want to apologize for Ann and wring your hands over what some of your "liberal friends" think of her you go right ahead.

You really should stop.

If you had followed your own advice you would not have called me a "libral".


You flatter yourself if you think any of this is any real concern, you just made yourself and easy target by being totally wrong.

All I got from this was amusement.

I don't recall calling you a liberal. I don't know if you are or not and I really don't care much. I like Ann Coulter, though I do think she jumps off the deep end on occassion. However, she is no doubt attacked quite often by those she ridicules so harshly so I cut her some slack in her sometimes extreme expressions.

Folks continually call Ann Coulter a liar, refer to Fox News as 'Faux'....but they never cite any examples.... I know I would never want to get into a debate with Coulter

If you are smart and you argue with facts and prove your point you can convince people.

That statement sums it up right there for me. When you argue, stick to the facts to the win the argument. Once you start the name calling and labeling, all bets are off. Also, don’t expect to win a squabble on the internet; it’s like trying to get a bill passed by the feds.

I do enjoy Ann’s venom though. She openly states what the majority of us on the right are thinking but sometimes afraid to say. Not all the time but a good percentage. To watch and listen to @#%$bags like Al Franken foam at the mouth commenting on her latest book is entertaining. In a good open debate I would rather have Laura Ingraham at bat then Ann. I’ll save Ann for the bench clearing brawl.

I would have to disagree with you though about hurting the right wing cause. I think sometimes, someone like her wakes some of the fence straddlers up, and chips a few blocks away from the “Politically Correct” wall that the Clintonoids threw down and brainwashed some  of the centrists with. She makes some great points in her books (I have read all of them) but sometimes comes up short in the interviews failing to convey her points clearly. Maybe she should train at the Jedi Academy and learn to control her anger.

Go get Franken's book "Lies". He has a whole chapter on Coulter and her lies.

A book about lies from a liar.



Dear Attorney General Ashcroft,

Hurts her cause?  What is her cause?   I have been told on these boards that I hurt my cause plenty of times.

I don't have a cause.   I point out the right and wrong of things as I see em and let people either see it or not.  

I am not here to beg and wheedle... that is for the liberals and wanna be one worlders who live in countries that could be great except for all the socialism.

Like her tho... I feel that liberal socialists are the biggest threat to anyone anywhere...

Unlike her... I feel that conservatives with a lot of power are a threat too.... a much milder one but a threat nonetheless...

I am more of an individulaist than she is but I like her style and I like that she can lambast the liberals who often feel that political satire is something that they own 100%

It amuses me to here them crying foul when she uses their tactics.

People here ask if she would be banned here.... Better to ask how we would do in her venue.   Up against other political satarists.... I have a feeling that most of the guys here would end up crying themselves to sleep at being treated half as badly as her.... she is tougher and smarter than most here.

I could be wrong tho.... just looks that way to me.

Yeah, that was a lie. Kinda like when John Wayne lied and claimed to be Davy Crockett.

More like claiming your lie depends on what is is.

So it was all play acting? ok then


Al bases most of his "lie" claims using the "my facts are better than your facts" method. If you want to use his standard for fact checking then you could always use this site frankenlies At least this guy is decent enough to call them errors, falsehoods, and misleading passages.

I just took a look at that site and I have to recant. Midnight Target is right. Al Franken's books are much more like John Wayne playing Davy Crockett, pure fiction.
