Just an a--hole that shows up every once in awhile to show how stupid some freepers can be.

[ken5050]

With respect, reread her comment..there's a clear, concise message there...the lady's no troll, far from it..occasionally, however, her biting sarcasm gets waaaaaay out in front of her point...

[Maigrey]

As much as I enjoy reading AC, I've got to put her 1/2 step below Mark Steyn. I want to write like him when I grow up!

[ken5050]

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

[Robert A Cook PE]

One down!

But, but, but ...

Mareen McDowd is mentioned as well in Ann's piece .......

[missypea]

If this happened while Clinton was in office you would be singing a different tune......but heck, this is Bush so it's OK. What a joke.

[Enterprise]

Hush little Askel5, there now, just be quiet a minute and I'll help you back into this.

[Enterprise]

I could only wish.

[tgslTakoma]

Thank you, Ann Coulter.

[Gator101]

Thanks. Yes. that is what I meant through jest. She is obviously not a troll.

[Askel5]

Beg pardon......if you care to look it up, that was name of the policy that your hero Slick Willy made up.

Yeah you rite.

Just like Slick Willy "made up" Bush's precise compromise on Stem Cell funding necessary to open the door to human farming. Or the Democrats (then decrying abortion as targeted genocide) "made up" the pop-control and environmentalism policies instituted by the GOP's 1970 task force "Earth Resources & Population" (GHB, Chairman).

As into "real sex and marriage" as the contracepting right claims to be, it's astounding to me that they've absolutely no gaydar when it comes to their own.

It's not as if the facts of the matter haven't been spelled out for all and sundry more than once. Even beyond reports of candidate W's "feeling like a better man" for having met with the Log Cabin Republicans, we have Barbara Bush to thank for establishing the "don't ask, don't tell" template.

First lady not worried about hookers' tour of White House Paul Bedard The Washington Times; Part A; WORLD; Pg. A10 July 10, 1989, Monday, Final Edition WARSAW, POLAND First lady Barbara Bush said yesterday that the Secret Service investigation of a late night White House tour that reportedly included two male prostitutes has not raised security questions the first family is worried about.   Mrs. Bush added that "I'm not into all of this" and said it was "good" that The Washington Post wasn't following The Times' story. Speaking publicly for the first time about the July 3, 1988, tour arranged by former Washington lobbyist Craig J. Spence, Mrs. Bush said she and her husband have no fears of a security breach. "Not at all," she told reporters on Air Force One shortly after it took off from Andrews Air Force Base en route here for the first leg of a 10-day European trip by President Bush. Mrs. Bush, noting that she reads all of the stories printed in the Daily Press Summary, a half-inch thick digest of stories in the print and electronic media, said the reports about the scandal uncovered by The Washington Times haven't alarmed her. "There haven't been a lot of stories in our house about it," she said.

Mrs. Bush added that "I'm not into all of this" and said it was "good" that The Washington Post wasn't following The Times' story. Ever since The Times first reported the tour on June 29, the White House has avoided comment. Last week, Treasury Secretary Nicholas Brady, who heads the Secret Service, reluctantly confirmed reports of a Secret Service investigation. Presidential spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said the service hasn't raised security concerns for the White House as a result of the probe. White House officials have said that the midnight tours such as those arranged for Mr. Spence do not threaten the First Family's security because they are allowed only in office areas and not the residence. The tours for Mr. Spence, who has been linked to a federal investigation of a Washington homosexual prostitution ring that catered to government, media and business officials, were set up by Reginald A. deGueldre, a uniformed White House officer who moonlighted as the lobbyist's bodyguard. Mr. Fitzwater said the Secret Service is "looking into the action" of the officer. White House officials have said any staff member with the proper credentials such as those held by Mr. deGueldre can give private tours, and after-hours tours are encouraged because they don't disturb those working during the day. The tours commonly include a view of the Oval Office. "I think they've [The Times] overblown the White House angle. No one knows who these guys are," said one administration official, referring to the associates of Mr. Spence named so far in The Times. But, he added, the White House continues to closely follow the story.

After all, actions speak louder than words ... Sex, Lies, Videotape, Teenagers, Drugs, Blackmail, and Death

For all the hype about Bawney Frank and his boyfriend's call service, the fact of the matter is that the male homosexual elite of the GOP is "Top Man" and has the jarhead lesbo and girlie boys of the Dems do their dirty work for them.

I was going to say, if that's a troll (Since Apr 15, 1998) that's one dedicated troll.

MurryMom's been around about as long if I'm not mistaken.

[conservatism_IS_compassion]

liberals claimed Gannon was a White House plant who received a press pass so that he could ask softball questions – a perk reserved for New York Times reporters during the Clinton years.

. . . 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?

"Objective journalism" is an Establishment, indeed the Establishment.
Like any Establishment, "objective" journalism hides in plain sight. All its members are visible; indeed they exist by being visible. And the way that "objective" journalism coheres as an entity - an establishment - is obvious too, for anyone willing to look at it. "Objective" journalism coheres in a go-along-and-get-along guild of journalists who will never say that any other journalist is not objective.

But an establishment is not a legal entity, and it must not speak its own name. Here we have the Democratic Party carrying the water of that establishment, demanding that that establishment have the right to exclude those who are not "made" in it.

The Constitution forbids the Congress to decide who may be a reporter and who may not. If the president wants to conduct something he calls a "press conference" in a phone booth, he is entitled to do so; if he wants to hold a "press conference in RFK Stadium he is entitled to do so, and if he does not want to hold anything he calls a "press conference" he is entitled to not do so.

[tgslTakoma]

Ann says it pretty well.

So was the sleeper troll, "COURAGE" member since early 1998 - Now banned,

[Rummyfan]

Also unlike Raines, Rather and Jordan, Gannon has appeared on television and given a series of creditable interviews in his own defense, proving our gays are more macho than their straights

Way to go Ann!

Thanks Stranger - I can always count on your posting Ann's column every Wednesday evening.

[Askel5]

=== And Ann is more macho than any liberal man, no doubt.

I'm sure she drives more than a few Log Cabin Republican types green with envy.

But, given the way she's getting you all to not only accept but defend "your fags" -- there being no significant problem with hypocrisy on the right these days -- I suspect it won't be long until the sexing and snuffing of kids is the only sexual petard left on which to hoist both Dems and Republicans alike.

Scandal being directly proportional to one's standards (or lack thereof).

But Dowd was talking about two different passes without telling her readers (a process now known in journalism schools as "Dowdification").

Dowdification is the selective editing of quotes such that their meaning is altered, especially by cutting out significant portions.

I realize Ann is bigger than most bloggers, but if she wants to use the terms, she should learn them.

[Lakeshark]

You mean if I put on my foil hat and repeat 100 times "It was Barbara Bush's fault" I'll be forgiven?

*High pitched voice*

Help meeeee....... Help meeeeee!

[perfect stranger]

Huh?
