She really has a way with words.

[cksharks]

And you know this how?????

[uncbob]

For Rush this will be the biggest battle of his life.

Indeed
It is not a given that he comes back better than ever
Well if a Scuz like Imus can stay clean I would think Rush can

[Pahuanui]

Evan Thomas wrote a cover story on Rush for Newsweek this week that was so vicious it read like conservative satire. Thomas called Rush a "schlub," "socially ill at ease," an Elmer Gantry, an actor whose "act has won over, or fooled, a lot of people." He compared Rush to the phony TV evangelist Jim Bakker and recommended that Rush start to "make a virtue out of honesty."

That's vicious?

Coulter never could write particularly well, and now it's clear she can't read with any facility, either.

[IncPen]

Ann, on fire. Great read.

Bad enough to make Law Review at Michigan. How about yourself?

Smart enough not to consider going to law school, thanks.

If she thinks the comments she was referring to were 'vicious', she evidently has difficulty understanding what the word means.

Glad I could clear that up for you.

It worries me that the pundits maintain that Rush's addiction is not all that bad because he is addicted to prescription drugs given originally given to him to treat pain. That is all fine and good and even understandable but is of no consequence whatsoever while he is fighting against his addiction and for his life.

[Roarkdude]

Ann Rocks! Larry Elder is currently taking up for Rush on air now.

[1rudeboy]

Maybe you should consider law school. One of the first things you learn is that words mean things. In other words [chuckle], you'd learn to look-up the word "viscious" before placing your foot in your mouth.

[1rudeboy]

sorry . . . vicious

[uncbob]

It worries me that the pundits maintain that Rush's addiction is not all that bad because he is addicted to prescription drugs given originally given to him to treat pain.

True and it also depends on whether he still really has pain problems or if he just liked the effects

If he still has pain in addition to liking the effects then he really has a problem because he has to fight the addiction and will still have pain
A Double Whammy

Might sound goofy but he will be better off if he was just hooked on the high

[WFTR]

The liberals are just upset because he was smarter than they were even when he was on painkillers and they were sober.

Ahhh, yeah. I tend to consider calling someone publically a schlub vicious. But even more insulting is the inflated sense of his own opinion that Thomas has. Those who agree with Rush have been "won over or fooled"? Gosh thanks, I guess all 20 million of us are too stupid to believe the liberal viewpoint or think for ourselves.

Ann read it as it was intended and I'm sure Thomas would agree with her interpretation.

"The reason any conservative's failing is always major news is that it allows liberals to engage in their very favorite taunt: Hypocrisy!

Hypocrisy is the only sin that really inflames them.
Inasmuch as liberals have no morals, they can sit back and criticize other people for failing to meet the standards that liberals simply renounce.
It's an intriguing strategy.

By openly admitting to being philanderers, draft dodgers, liars, weasels and cowards, liberals avoid ever being hypocrites..." - Ann Coulter

ping!

[hilaryrhymeswithrich]

Viscious I can define, it is "is" that I have trouble with.........

[DannyTN]

"By openly admitting to being philanderers, draft dodgers, liars, weasels and cowards, liberals avoid ever being hypocrites. " ROFL - perfect Ann

Actually, when I looked-up the word "vicious," I was surprised to read how many definitions it has, and how many applied. Then I went-on to misspell it . . . that's what I get for typing in the dark.

[Spirited]

"For Rush this will be the biggest battle of his life."

People keep repeating this. I figure that no matter whether one is a "dittohead" or not we on FR largely know how to pray and do not, like the liberals, "judge another man's servant".

So we pray and hope that he does, too. This is his opportunity to prove all the liberals and nay-sayers wrong. May the Lord enable him to do so in the same way He enables Bush to show up the choke-up liberals.

I figure this can give Rush a bigger ear in the public long term.
