You’re going to tell me that after all the threads on this board where people savaged the idiocy spewed out by Coulter (and sometimes on a _weekly_ basis, if she’s on a roll), you honestly thought that no one here would say anything harsh about her? Clearly, if _not_ an attention seeking troll, you are as dumb as the proverbial stump, nor would I be so inclined as to rule out the possibility that you are, in fact, _both._

Tucker, thank you very much for arguing my point for me so eloquently. And proving it so soundly.

Oh, no, _you’ve_ done a far better job than I could ever hope to do at proving you’re a lying sack of shit and a troll. I, good sir, am not even an amateur in comparison to you.

Funny, I thought we started losing class the day you registered.

She writes “satire” for people anxious to believe that they have a sense of humor. She’s as smart as a rattlesnake, but she lacks the warmth.

I still find this news difficult to credit. I would have bet any money that icebreaker mandible of hers was the most indestructible part of her body. After the nuclear fires died down, that osseous prow would still remain intact amid the ashes, impaling cockroaches upon its vicious summit for nigh unto eternity.

Maybe she’ll get a bionic replacement.

First thing that popped into my head is that there’s a link between eating disorders and premature osteoporosis…

In any case there’s not a lot of tissue to pad those bones.

The words emanating from her jaw have been inhuman.

Now her jaw is broken.

Perhaps the alien pupa nesting in her jaw finally hatched and flew away, breaking her jaw in the process.

If Coulter stops making inhuman statements once her jaw is no longer wired, we’ll know that it was an alien that had been controlling her jaw; if she continues to make inhuman statements, then we’ll know that it is she who is inhuman.

I am _sick_ and _tired_ of the unsympathetic and inhumane comments regarding Coulter’s tragic condition!

Don’t you people realize that unless those wires are removed in the next few weeks she may not be able to complete her monthly feeding? That jaw has to unhinge all the way for her to swallow a girl scout whole, you know.

If the Presidential Wang can break the jaw of a gazelle-swallowing reptile like Coulter it’s no wonder Hillary cuts him so much slack.

Let’s see - I point out that you and others have no class because of the absolute gutter viciousness of the attacks that have been posted against Ann Coulter. And for pointing that fact out, you label me a lying sack of shit and a troll.

You and many others have apparently never learned that ad hominem attacks like the one I quoted above are a clear indication that you cannot refute what was said, so you attack the person who said it. Way to go, Tucker. You confirmed it again.

And I have no doubt that he is bitterly ashamed, struck to the quick by your incisive observation.

If you think this thread is particularly bad, you must not hang out in the Pit.

And why shouldn’t we mock the injury of someone who spews hate?

Ah, yes, you’re the one to speak about class. After all, you’d _never_ run around in the celebratory election night threads screaming, “You people are voting for a socialist! You’re voting for a socialist! He’s going to ruin _everything!_ We’re doomed!” or words to that effect, now would you? Oh, wait, you _did_. While most of the McCain supporters on this board accepted their defeat with _class_, you had hysterics.

**Nothing** in this thread, has been spewed with the same level of vile hate and inhumanity with which Coulter has made her money vomiting forth. Nor, does it even have a _tenth_ of the audience that she routinely reaches. This place is **not** a gentleman’s social club from the 1800s, it is a rather obscure message board in a medium which, at its core, is little more than a place for people to slander one another anonymously and exchange porn.

Lastly, you, of all people, who is _incapable_ of holding a cogent discussion on _anything_, preferring, instead, to regurgitate the thoroughly discredited and disowned talking points of the more extreme factions of the Republican party, has as much business telling people what “class” is, as does the character “Booger” from _Revenge of the Nerds_. If you had any modicum of class or intelligence you would **not** be commenting against those who are now laughing at Coulter’s expense, instead, you’d be castigating the media for giving her _any_ attention at all, but you don’t do that. And the only logical conclusion that one can draw from this is that you actually subscribe to the woman’s ravenings. That you’re not presently defending her to a larger extent, is symbolic of the fact that you’re a craven little coward, too chickenshit to take the heat you’d get for defending her.

So, **Tuckerfan** , if I understand fully what your beautifully written riposte, at its core, is driving at … is that there’s porn made available on the internet?

So I’ve heard it said. I’ve not actually bothered to investigate that as of yet, but I fully intend to get around to it one day.

Methinks Tucker doth protest too much. I obviously hit a nerve.

And guess what, Tucker - she’s right far more often than you are. Deal with it.
