[QUOTE=MilTan]  
Which is especially pertinent, since Sean Hannity was doing exactly that to the other guy in the interview at the beginning of the video…  
[/QUOTE]

And he didn’t even let it slow him down. He just kept plugging along at making his point and getting his views heard. It made watching Ann fold up like a deck chair twice as fun. As a rule, I detest this sort of talk show format, but considering how much Ann has profited from it in the past, it’s nice to see it turn on her like that.

Hey, it’s not all bad. At the bottom of the page there’s a picture of a pale palomino horse named Coulter.  
[/QUOTE]

As much as I loathe the Coultergeist, I think that’s actually a pretty good name for a horse. Spell it “Colter” and it’s much better.

Be better if you could give seperate names to either end.

Wow! In addition to Afghanistan going “swimmingly,” she believes that Osama bin Laden is irrelevant! What a fucking dumb bitch. That view, however, appears to be widespread among Republicans, however, if one can take the lack of effort in finding and killing him by this administration as evidence, along with the lack of criticism of Bush for this failing by Republican politicians and voters alike.

Not only did she get a chance to answer, but she goaded the woman into listing what the Democrats will do. She brought that shit on herself, and then whined that Alan Colmes wasn’t there to be a big pussy for her to browbeat.

All right. So far as I know, Ann Coulter has never cooked and eaten a human baby.

Actually, wouldn’t it be more appropriate, instead of the (biweekly?) Coulter Pitting, to consider a Pit devoted to whoever publishes and/or broacasts her excrement, with the general message of **DNFTT**? Start with Crown Publishers, NYC, who are raking in the bucks from _Treason_, which in my considered opinion calls for Coulter, the management of Crown, et al., to be charged with several million counts of conspiracy to falsely accuse persons of a crime (18 U.S. Code, Part I, Ch. 19, Sec. 371).

There’s a Google ad for “Ann Coulter ringtones”.

Can you imagine being in a crowded theater, at the most intense moment of a movie, when the cellphone belonging to jerk with the screaming baby in front of you rings – and the ringtone is HER VOICE spewing “Liberals are traitors”?

I want the ringtone that says “Kill their leaders and convert them to our religion”. (Did she ever say what our religion was? I hate when instructions are incomplete like that.)

Maybe I just don’t understand pop culture, but I’m honestly baffled that folks like Ann Coulter and Sean Hannity can have the careers they do. It’s not just that we differ on issues – it’s that they don’t seem capable of constructing a strong logical argument. I forced myself to listen to Hannity one afternoon and came away with the strong impression that he’s not just coming from a very different philosophical and political viewpoint than mine, but that he’s genuinely not very bright. I’ve gotten the same impression from skimming Miss Ann’s books – a lot of aggression, but not much intellectual candlepower or depth of education.

At least Bill Buckley’s arrogant, snooty columns were erudite. As I got older I learned how to pick his arguments apart, but still had to admire the clever, Ivy League sophistry involved. The current crop of blustering heads on tv just seems pathetic.

My mistake – I misremembered the quote. She actually said “convert them to Christianity”. Still batshit insane, but at least it’s more specific.

It’s not a smackdown when Coulter keeps jawing over someone else without letting them respond, and it’s not a smackdown when someone does the same thing to her.

The only thing cute about this video is how she gets a little flustered at being on the receiving end of that treatent, and the boner about Afghanistan going “swimmingly.”
