Hollywood Leo's favorite conservative is at it again

[HollywoodLeo]

i'm just happy that S3F doesn't appear to be as politically lopsided as thenflforums are.

[Fishercat]

It seems like it's mostly conservatives here. Nothing wrong with that, even though I'm not one. I suppose I need something to balance out my reality tv forum (which, oddly enough, I go to only for the off-topic section now).

[ThomasTomasz]

Ann Coulter is right, on some levels. Look at Cindy Sheehan, using her son's memory to advance her political agenda. If he son hadn't died, she wouldn't have received a ticket to the State of the Union, and she wouldn't be mentiond in the news everyday. If I were that boys father, I would be mortified.

However, that does not excuse Ann Coulter for lumping everyone together. For every person that will use the death of their husband for something, there are hundreds more who won't. I have a problem lumping all of that together. Partially because, I am Roman Catholic, and a lot of my political beliefs are intwined with my religious beliefs. Most people lump me in with idiots like Jimmy "I hate Catholics" Swaggert and Pat "Mother Theresa is not a saint" Robertson.

Coulter is right, but she should write about specific people using their husband's memory for their own ends. Then, mention some of those who aren't.

[HollywoodLeo]

I pretty much agree with everything ThomasTomasz said.

Like I said earlier, she was a bit over the top with the statements she's (currently) being critisized for, which is a shame because it'll distract from the many good and valid points i'm sure she makes in her new book (of which I have yet to read), but I do tend to agree with her general viewpoints.

It seems like it's mostly conservatives here.

The Cincinnati/Kentucky/West Virginia area tends to be conservative.

[realmofotalk]

Yes, like John Moores' and the Spanos' conservative spending on their teams.

Ann's quotes will often be controversial, not just on this issue. That is one of the reasons I like her so much:

"My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building."
as quoted in the New York Observer, Aug. 20, 2002


If Giuliani wants to have a national ambition, and I’m a big fan of his, he’s going to have to become pro-life if he wants to run for president. No one ever believed he was pro-choice anyway - he’s a Catholic from Queens," she says, adding, “Americans understand that Manhattan is the Soviet Union.”

If you say so.

Most of them pic's you posted were butt ugly, IMO.

[Lynch]

Clinton calling out someone else on attacking, bashing, etc ... now that is humor....

Personally, I prefer to use the pot/kettle analogy with that witch, but .. yeah.

Her controversial quotes are assinine at best. I can't understand how anyone can like her. Just think if you were a member of one of the families she so brutally insulted in this or a Disabled Vietnam Vet who gave his life up pretty much to defend you and you tell him he's the reason we lost the war? I encounter ****ed up veterans a lot, and they usually don't take lightly to that. Whether she's off the wall, or whatever you may call it, she still needs to put some serious thought into what she's saying. Even if I were to ever agree with her, and some things she says are funny, I still can't ever take anything she says as intelligent because everything up there is stupid. I guess I'm a little too PC, but that's because when someone ****s with me and my family I'd want the same type of protection these people deserve from her. I guess, in the end, it's free speech, but the ***** needs a reality check to wonder if ratings on her show is what really matters.

[CincyRedsFan30]

I think there is plenty of thought. She mentions past historical events and issues to support her positions and shows good general knowledge of a variety of subject areas.

And she doesn't have a show. She writes columns and books and appears on many shows on many channels.
