When Ann is down I will not kick her. Do you not see the difference?
If you were correct in your first post, that she acted in an unChristian manner, then she was already down and you did, indeed, pile on. But consider this, which was my point originally. Where do you get the authority to question her Christianity? Are you actually willing to be judged in the same way you have judged her? If so, why do you do the very thing you accuse her of, namely writing critically and piling on?
See #82 & 101
At her best here.
I was pointing out how anti-(fill-in-the-blank) can be created out of whole cloth if one wishes to do so.
You did it, so I illustrated it back to you.
The point was if Coulter's comments were anti-semitic, then yours were anti-Christian. Same skewed method used.
You didn't even get what I was conveying to you.
Regardless of the context in this case, the phrase "told ya so" is used generically all the time, with no need to make it seeped with prejudice as you clearly wanted to see it.
It wasn't done by Coulter, but created by you.
You wanted it to be because he was a Jew, I don't see that as Coulter's intention.
Her mentioning Baptist is part of her being through in her reserch of the parties involved.
If that makes me anti-Christian, then you are way, way, WAY off.
There is my point. If Coulter's statement makes her anti-Jew, then you are way way way WAY off.
(Of course it doesn't make you anti-Christian, any more than her comments make her anti-Jew)
I added an extra "way" for emphasis.
Very good points, thanks.
“As in what, she shouldnt have married a New Yorker, or a Jew?”
That’s not anti-Semetic; it’s life. Marrying outside of one’s religion is not a smart thing to do because it make a difficult life twice as difficult. We’re Baptists and our best friends are Jewish, but we don’t make life decisions together, and don’t create and raise children together. I would hope that any Jewish parent would discourage their kids from marrying Christians, and vice versa.
I guess we agree to disagree as to what we saw.
I only brought it up because I never see Ann mention Clinton’s religion or Kennedy’s religion in any context to their behavior. So why mention Spitzer’s a Jew at all?
What was the point?
Fine, but a needless statement which solves nothing.
I only brought it up because I never see Ann mention Clintons religion or Kennedys religion in any context to their behavior.
Well, spend some time reading Coulter and you will.
And BTW, she didn't do that with the Spitter either.
So why mention Spitzers a Jew at all? What was the point?
I don't think she mentioned that he is a Jew.
Show me the quote from the article, OK? Thanks.
Oh the point? LOL, if there is one, I can't 'splain it to you, sorry.
It's absurd to talk about "alpha males" and political power -- an alpha male does not bring his family shame and disaster. Who was more alpha than Ronald Reagan? Think he ever had a "whore problem"? This is more like a dog who wee-wees on your leg.
It's absurd to talk about legal defenses. This guy has fallen from the pinnacle of New York society to being a disgrace to his class. He's the Ivy League version of Paris Hilton.
That was always the advantage Clinton had: We never expected any better. He went from Skunk Trot, Ark., to Skunk Trot, Ark. Spitzer fell from Fifth Avenue to Skunk Trot, Ark.

Most folks in “interfaith” marriages are not very religious. That’s why they’re called “interfaithless” marriages.
Pretty early in the column, she mentions Spitzer being the son of children of Jewish immigrants.
I do realize that for some people it is considered anti-semitic to mention that Jews are good at being successful.
Oops..his parents were the children of Jewish immigrants.
My error.
Hello NEWBIE!! Being Jewish is a MAJOR part of the family story because in ALL the articles it’s noted that his father ILLEGALLY FINANCED his AG campaigns in ORDER for him to be the FIRST JEWISH PRESIDENT!! That’s from the dad!!
I like yer style...
I guess this means Ann and Eliot won’t be dating any time soon.
Maybe deep down Eliot KNOWS he never got where he was by being on the up and up.....his family and he has CHEATED his way to the top.
THIS was the best part of the story!!!!
OK, you win.
I saw the ‘told ya so’ in tghe context of their different religious upbringings. Obviously I was in error.
As far as Spitzer being groomed to be first Jewish Prez, I thot that was going to be me.
Damn, wrong twice in the same day.
I’ll get over it.
