Of course she doesn’t believe in evolution. Her ancestors got placed in the control group.

Wow. That article left me feeling like I’d just finished reading something by \*\*9th Floor \*\* in Great Debates.

I find it interesting that it’s okay for some of you to rip on her looks while in any other thread (including in the Pit) doing that to someone else is almost immediately condemned.

[QUOTE=Larry Borgia]  
I don’t understand how anyone can think Coulter’s hot, or even remotely good looking. YMMV, but she reminds me of one of the [Gentlemen](http://photos.ifmagazine.com/graphics/features_movie/btvs-camden_toy_as_a_gentlemen.jpg) from _Buffy the Vampire Slayer_.

[QUOTE=drm]  
Seriously? I find her remarkably unattractive (it’s her face, I think). More importantly, she strikes me as someone who is absolutely frigid in bed.

Then you guys will not find [THIS](http://www.unconfirmedsources.com/nucleus/media/21/20061114-playboycoulter.jpg) appealing! 😛

I can’t understand the “I’d do her” stuff about Ann Coulter either. Both her books and her legs suggest she came from Treblinka, the former from the barracks and the latter from the camp.

Out of curiosity- might be a better IMHO thread- but does anybody think Coulter _really_ thinks of herself as a true Christian? (Note: I’m not asking if _you_ think she’s a true Christian.) I often wonder if people like her (O’Reilly, Bush, Limbaugh, etc.) really do believe they can spew their bile and still actually be Christians, or are they just completely pandering to their base and basically amoral performance artists.

Either way, what the hell is up with this [Chris Crocker](http://youtube.com/watch?v=uEE3akeFeQU&feature=related) character she’s trying out? Didn’t she learn anything from when Garth Brooks bombed with that Chris Gaines thing?

I wonder how much our perceptions of somebody’s physical attractiveness is skewed by our disgust with their stated opinions? If I loved the idea of a monotheocratic dictatorship ruled by very rich people, would I find Coulter hot and Arianna Huffington repulsive, rather than the reverse?

Anyway, her looks are immaterial and it’s a cheap tactic to criticize them. As for the crazy things she says all the time – I’ve never decided whether she really means them (indicating that she has a nest of twisting, writhing, poisonous worms in her head) or whether she’s the most dedicated performance artist since Andy Kaufman, and has been putting us on for all these years in her every single public utterance or published word.

I think Sampiro was referring more to their near-constant hateful language, which is difficult to reconcile with most varieties of Christianity. Which is why he wonders if they are able to do that in their own brains, or if they are just trying to play it off to the public.

“Rap?” Who the hell says “rap” these days when they mean “talk?”

Yeah, that’s about all I got. I think the best treatment for Coulter and her ilk is just DNFTT.

This is a great approach to take if there is a chance the troll will starve from lack of attention and just go away, but that’s not going to happen. She’s got far too many right-wing friends in the media that wil let her spew her dribblings any time she wants, and unless her widely spread crap is countered, you have the old “If she is wrong, people would have said so!” dilemma. This troll is getting all the food she needs, so ignoring her is NOT going to make her go away.
