    Re: Let's try this again
    I think a requisite for people discussing Ann Coulters book should actually have read it, otherwise, its pointless to talk to people who have formulated their opinions of her based on what a liberal pundit claimed.

    Oh, I think we've all read quite enough of Ann Coulter.
    I don't have to eat a whole turd to know that I'm not going to like it. The aroma - similar to the aroma that wafts off her "literature" - is all the evidence I need.

    I've read her articles, but not her book and i think she is full of hot air and a demonizing lier
    i don't think i really need to read her book if its anything like anything else she says on any other medium she's allowed to spew her nonsense on

    No, I'm not laughing in derision, that was actually really funny.
    Do you really find her that objectionable? You don't find yourself in agreement over anything she says? Would you say that she makes pretty good arguments even if you don't agree with her view? I think she's a pretty sharp cookie, personally.

    No, she's not, you're right.
    (Not that Moore is without fault, of course, but he at least makes a valiant effort at backing up his words with data.

    Is ignorance bliss?
    I don't know whether to be glad or sad that outside of EvC I've never even heard of Ann Coulter.
    I'm half tempted to try and read up some of her stuff to see if she's as great as NJ says or as bad as most of the rest of you say.
    But life is short...

    Hi, MT.
    Go to mediamatters.org. Search for Ann Coulter. They have many video and audio clips.
    Ann can speak for herself.
    Don't thank me.

    God gave us the earth. We have dominion over the plants, the animals, the trees. God said, ”Earth is yours. Take it. Rape it. It’s yours.’

    i like al franken... cause he's funny. but that's as far as i go. not so big on the people who want to comment on politics but aren't actually smart enough or interested enough in being accurate to go to school and learn about how politics works. it's not like the classes are hard.
