The government's first duty should be to preserve the life of it's citizens. Perhaps a very close second would be the duty of government to preserve the sanctity of it's territory. If a nation cannot preserve either of these, it's a pretty pi$$ poor government.

That's what we wound up with, applogies to our forefathers.

I want a padded room, two chairs, and Anne in one chair and that screeching Judge Catherine Crier in the other chair. OH! And I want a 'mute' button so I don't have to listen every time Crier interrupts with her condescending whine. [Would only need one body bag when it was over, and maybe a cold beer for Anne.]

Great Toon!

[MHGinTN]

Thanx for the ping, RD.

but not Pro-Adulterous Husbands Who, After Taking Up With Another Woman, Suddenly Recall Their Wives' Clearly Stated Wish to Die.

That is the aspect that BUGS the Hell out of me....by implication it is as though he is hiding something!

[T. Buzzard Trueblood]

Bump.

[DLfromthedesert]

I used to enjoy Crier when she had her show on FoxNews. She's very intelligent, but can't see past her bias toward the judiciary.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Excellent, as usual. Thanks gentlemen, for the pings!!

[MHGinTN]

Of late, every time she's on the punditry circuit reagrding Terri Schaivo, I've been begging just one interviewer or panel member to ask the harridan if she could prove beyond a reasonable doubt (the standard for executions by court order) that Terri wanted to be put down if she became disabled.

[perfect stranger]

So, you do admit that AC makes sense on many important issues, but for some reason not this one, and she's wrong? <>Is that it?

[RichInOC]

On the bright side, after two weeks of TV coverage of the Terri Schiavo case, I think we have almost all liberals in America on record saying we can pull the plug on them. Of course, if my only means of entertainment were Air America radio, Barbra Streisand albums and reruns of "The West Wing," I too would be asking: "What kind of quality of life is this?"

Under those circumstances, I'd eat a .45 like Hunter S. Thompson did. I do believe that not even God Himself would blame me.

(Today's brain twister: Would you rather be O.J.'s girlfriend or Michael Schiavo's fiancee?)

Well, the Juice hasn't killed anybody...lately...

BTTT

[Mo1]

Summed up very nicely Anne .. good job

[M. Thatcher]

Disappointing nonsense from someone who usually knows better. Must be pushing book sales to the yahoos.

Suggest you give an example of said nonsense, yahoo.

[Lancey Howard]

BUMP for Ann Coulter, who has more spine than the politicians who ran scared from a corrupt county probate judge and wrung their bony hands as they watched an innocent American citizen get murdered - - murdered slowly and barbarically for two excruciating weeks.

[my_pointy_head_is_sharp]

She just keeps getting better and better! She just needs to be careful that she doesn't insult the pissants whose shows she appears on. I think that's the first time I ever used pissant in a sentence.)

[nutmeg]

ping!

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.

[lainde]

bttt

If being (a) on a liquid diet, and (b) unresponsive to one's estranged husband are now considered grounds for a woman's execution, wait until this news hits Beverly Hills!

My favorite line too. Ann has an uncanny ability to bring laughter to the most serious of subjects.
