1. Ann Coulter unplugged. The conservative provocateur mocked gay men last night, saying there are two things they can’t do – “get married to each other” (they can in Canada and some American states) and “throw a baseball without looking like a girl.”

The university provost a letter cautioning her to be aware of “what is acceptable in Canada,” noting that “promoting hatred against any identifiable group would not only be considered inappropriate but could in fact lead to criminal charges.”

Ms. Coulter, meanwhile, spoke last night at the University of Western Ontario. All long blonde hair and heavily-mascaraed lashes, she did not hold back, according to the London Free Press. A frequent contributor to Fox News – Barack Obama’s least favourite American network – Ms. Coulter took on a political science student who is Muslim.

After the 9/11 terrorist attacks, she had joked that Muslims denied air travel should take “flying carpets.” When the student challenged that remark, Ms. Coulter told her to take a “camel,” adding that, “I thought it was just American public schools that produced ignorant people.”

I didn’t realize that the Canadians don’t enjoy freedom of speech.

“A word is either offensive or it’s not. In a world of political correctness, all words are banned unless they’re used against conservatives.”

Well said.

I LOVE Ann Coulter. She is as nice to look at as to listen to, but she should put a little more weight on.

Excellent cut and paste.
If only you’d done that with the actual article.

Now, when I go to the article that you LINKED, most of what you posted is not there.

You cannot EXCERPT something that isn’t in the original.

If you added to the article with your own comments, you should note it as such.

Ann possesses an ectomorphic body type...probably would not gain weight, no matter how many calories she consumed, (besides which, the closer to the bone it is, the sweeter the meat.)

Ann is terrific.

read it again,what I posted is a direct copy and paste...

First you invent your own excerpt. Now you post a second from some unlinked source?

[Outlaw Woman]

What a gutsy gal. lol Gotta love that spirit!

I remember seeing the video of both clips and could not beleive that Girlyman Kerry actually performed better than young ObaMao!

Yeah, they both threw like girls. But at least Kerry had a better wind-up.

I really like Ann's sarcastic sense of humor. Can any liberal understand sarcasm or do they all hate conservatives?

[SJSAMPLE]

No, it’s not.
Nothing about mascara, or the muslim student.
