If you have read Coulter, which you say you have, then you will realize that she is 10 shades more conservative than any other writer/pundit out there. I cannot think of one issue on which she does not hold a far right (and I mean that as a compliment) opinion. You may not like her looks or her rhetorical style, but a quisling she ain't.

There are very few as conservative as me, but she is one.

Now you've gone and done it.

A perfectly good pic morphed into an askel thread.......

Well, Jeff Gannon said he made mistakes in his past and that he's "saved" if you will. So I have to look at the story with those comments in mind. I don't know any perfect people, who have spotless pasts or nothing for which they may now feel some amount of shame for having done. If he has admitted making mistakes in his past, shall we condemn the man for now until eternity?

I have read many posts, blogs and references to websites and photos purporting to be Gannon's/Guckert's; but with all these stories, and with all the lefties out there digging for dirt/"proof" of Gannon's/Guckert's gay prostitute business, they haven't got a "I hired Gannon/Guckert" firsthand account of his misdeeds? With all the out-in-the-open gayness in this city especially, I find that noteworthy.

Back to the way people here on FR are so quick to try, convict and sentence the man, on the word of leftist reporters no less, I'm too far from perfect myself to start throwing boulders at the guy. Just another character flaw on my part, I guess.

This is not the DLC or some sort of relatively mainstream leftist organization that has found this material worthy of repeating - this is the extreme crackpot left. Whether he lifted it from them, or they from him, is neither here nor there - the mere fact that such things are touted by the extreme crackpot left should be enough to give one pause when considering their worth.

This is Ann's best column since the Specter column back in last year's Pennsylvania's Senatorial primary.

But if you think that a raft of closet queens at the top of the GOP is not a problem, you got another think coming.

Sounds like you might have some inside info there Asskel. Or maybe playing out a fantasy?

Democrats in Congress actually demanded that an independent prosecutor investigate how Gannon got into White House press conferences while writing under an invented name. How did Gary Hartpence, Billy Blythe and John Kohn (Gary Hart, Bill Clinton and John Kerry) run for president under invented names? Admittedly, these men were not reporters for the prestigious "Talon News" service; they were merely Democrats running for president.

LOL!!! Ann Coulter ping.

No wonder the Helen Thomases and Maureen Dowds of the world don't like her.... too much to compete, hehe.

I think it's time we set up a website with journalists true names.

After all, they've convinced me of the urgency, what with this horrible Gannon/Guckert thing!!!

Askel5 already knows that. You are being baited. Ignore it.

I have her book, actually. She was not nearly so entertaining but struck me as a bright woman back when we all got copies at the House Manager's dinner.

And it's to her credit that she is a Schlafley fan. Unfortunately, Ann is no Phyllis Schlafley and never will be.

She, moreso than posters on this thread, ought to know well how insidious and dangerous is the hypocritical homosexual elite primarily the problem of the right. The fact she is here to help Flyover Country rustle up some indignation and defense of the likes of Gannon is unsettling to say the least.

Oh please don't kill me if I find the painting of Gannon as some Victim utterly disgusting and inexcusable.

It strikes me as passing strange we're the party who'll take Karla Fay Tucker's life in a heartbeat -- there being no room for metanoia and sincere conversion among drugged out murderers, I guess -- but rush to the defense of a calculating queen.

To me, there's a world of difference between the bad judgment of a teen and the creepy calculation of an adult with an ability to cash in on the gay porn and escort services of the right's elite while simultaneously making a name for himself by encouraging the homophobia of the rank and file right.

I do admire Coulter's "witty" ability to spin Gannon as Victim with all the adroitness of Karl Rove. But, then again, I've always been fascinated by the art of propaganda and the willing nature of those who buy it. MORE PICS PLEASE!!

I guess it's her innate sympathy for utter hypocrisy that causes her to still tout herself as a "constitutional scholar" and legal maven.

You are confused.

This latest column is less about defending that creep "Gannon" than it is about exposing the hypocrisy of your scumbag liberal Democrats who are trying (weakly and unsuccessfully) to make a mountain out of a molehill strictly for the purpose of trying to embarrass the White House.

You need to learn to recognize hypocrisy when you see it. Or just look it up.

The scumbag Democrats have no intention of "letting this story die". Thank God there is somebody as witty and gutsy as Ann Coulter around to (yet again) brilliantly EXPOSE THE HYPOCRISY of the scumbags.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, this column is less about "defending" that creep "Gannon" than it is about exposing the scumbags as the hypocrites they are for trying to bloat and prolong a nothing story out of all proportion in order to try to embarrass the White House.

Regards,
LH

=== Imagine the prose that would come from the child of a union of An Coulter and Mark Steyn..


You might as well imagine the prose forthcoming from the union of Carson McCullers and Oscar Wilde while you're at it.

Trust all is well, Ken5050.

(What hands I've got left ... been literally working 'em to the bone lately. Now that I've had a little sleep today, my third day off in two months, I can say it does kinda feel good to work so hard for a change. =)

This week I've been making 300 construction workers and crew in toolbelts happy.

Tough job, but somebody's gotta do it ... =)



(Been feeding the folks at "Extraordinary Makeover-Home Edition" out in Plaquemines Parish. They even had a unit of reservists -- who happened to be staying at the same hotel as the production folks -- show up from Georgia. In short, I'm in heaven.)

And with that ... I'm laughing my way out the door.

Next time, maybe Mz. Coulter will apply her saber wit to a gutsy defense of someone other than a rank Hypocrite next time she wants to expose the hypocrisy of the so-called left.
