“Oh yes it can be defended! “

Tee hee.

The words didn’t spout out of her mouth in the heat of the moment she wrote them in her column she had time to think about it and as far as I know never retracted it. Yes we know it was right after 9/11.

I dispute your allegation anything was taken out of context. That’s an exact quote not

//////”Suppose one of the two of you states, “Hitler said all the Jews must die!” and I decide to remove the first two words of your quote and attribute the rest to you, far and wide, hounding you into every thread and every forum you visit,”///////

anything like the scenario you describe.

All corrupt or evil rulers in the Mid East or anywhere deserve to die (or least rot in prison) in my option. And radical Islam is a threat to the world. I wish no one was a Muslim.

But to suggest US policy should be to go on the final crusade, come on that’s nuts. American soldiers of which there are not nearly enough to even attempt this sort of thing (which would fail so spectacularly, hell if the President tried to do it he would be removed from office for mental heath reasons), dying while trying to force people in a whole bunch of countries to change their religion, sounds super. She misjudged the situation if she thought she wouldn’t take a credibility hit for that one.

It was hyperbloic and silly assuming she was just venting and doesn’t actually think it’s a good idea.

[Impy says]: Tee hee.

Are we all giggly today? Aww, ain't that pwecious!

[Impy says]: The words didnt spout out of her mouth in the heat of the moment she wrote them in her column she had time to think about it...

NOT in the heat of the moment?????

OK, Impy, let's get back to basic math here. Her column was published on September 13, 2001. That implies she submitted it to her publisher late on September 12 (possibly early 9/13).

Here is your task: Subtract 11 (as in 9/11/2001) from 12 (as in 9/12/2001).

I'll give you extra time here, in case your calculating machine is an older non-motorized model with a hand crank.
(And don't forget that for subtraction you must crank the handle around backwards.)

Now, did you get the same result I did? --- One (1) day. (Actually, I computed it in my head, not that I'm saying this to try to show you up or anything).

This means that the first news of just who it was (Bin Laden's bunch, ie Islamofascist Terrorists) that killed her closest friend had JUST come out in the preceding hours.

Furthermore, while still in a state of shock for the murder of her closest friend, she was treated, like the rest of us, to scenes of jubilant Palestinians in multiple locations whooping it up, firing guns in the air in jubilant celebration of her friend's death.

And this is when she wrote these words: We know who the homicidal maniacs are. They are the ones cheering and dancing right now. We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war.

And you say she did not write this "in the heat of the moment"?

Good grief!! You Ann-attackers are UNREAL. Her friend's ashes were still smoldering in the embers of the Pentagon at that time, and this is NOT "heat of the moment"?

You know, for a long time there, Bobby Jindal was my number one pick for the future of the GOP, up until Sarah came along. And he's still my number two.

But if Sarah doesn't run and BJ does, I'll have to think long and hard about volunteering my time again, if it means working alongside the kind of Jindal supporters I've seen on this thread.

Publius started off this whole thing with an attack on Ann for merely throwing a single Jindal/Slumdog remark into her long column about other topics, a remark that as many others have pointed out here, was perfectly innocuous. And now you, Impy, have gone and made the most ridiculous leaps of logic in an attempt to slander Ann for her perfectly understandable 8-year-old grief-stricken outburst.

Hmmm... I'm starting to see a pattern here --- connections between Jindal-support and Coulter-bashing. Here's what I'm seeing:

Most RINOs I've met live by the philosophy:

I see parts of that same philosophy creeping into the anti-Coulter rants. What I'm hearing is: "We can't say incendiary things! We've got to talk nicely to the Democrats! We should be praising them instead of saying nasty things. Muzzle Coulter now!"

In looking at Jindal's recent performance, it appears as if these kinds of RINOs somehow got to him before his speech. It looks like that wing of the party convinced Bobby, if not coerced him, to show voters that we Republicans are really very very very nice people, very obedient suck-ups to the leftists, and we'd never dare say anything critical about the Obamessiah. Oh no, not us!

If they think that Jindal's speech has won over voters, then they probably also think Ann Coulter is a liability to the GOP.

Hmmm, 'smatter of fact, they do both, don't they?

If and when Jindal runs, in order to get my full support, I'd first have to see evidence that he has not drunk the koolaid of the "Suck Up To Liberal Democrats" wing of the GOP.

(And when I say "full" support, I mean that I put in TONS of volunteer hours every 2 years, plus city elections in between, as well as $$ and letters to the editor - none of which you'd probably like, because they're too "Coulterish").
