Best selling author and conservative pundit Ann Coulter told Alan Colmes on the "Hannity and Colmes" show on Fox News last night that she meant it when she wrote in her book "How to Talk to a Liberal - If You Must," now out in paperback, that the rules for talking to a liberal forbid complimenting or showing graciousness to, or flattering a Democrat.
Colmes then told Coulter that Pat Tillman, the former pro football player turned Army Ranger who was killed in Afghanistan, was pro-John Kerry and against the war in Iraq. "You were quoted in the San Fransisco Chronicle yesterday" Colmes continued, saying that Tillman "was virtuous and pure, as only an American male can be. I wonder if you still would say those things" knowing he was a Democrat?
"No, but I don't believe it," she said. "I think you got that from one of those document that Mary Mapes (The producer of the bogus CBS News story on George W. Bush's Guard service) handed in to Dan Rather." Whenever Ann says things like this she comes off as a buffoon and gives credence to those who call her the Michael Moore of the Right. Meanwhile, her amen corner sheepishly shouts, "Ann, you go girl!"

Ann Coulter for the Supreme Court! I hope you're saying that tongue in cheek. Ann is bright but she is about as qualified for SCOTUS as Peewee Herman is.

Ok, never compliment a liberal Democrat.

Ann "Anything for a controversial headline" Coulter is at it again.
She is the Jesse Jackson of the right. When I see articles like this one, I,m forced to agree with you.
To: EveningStar
It's painful for many.
I think it's appropriate though that she said this on Hannity's show. He takes shrill to a level previously only known on the left.

I don't listen to Hannity that much, so I can't comment on this. However, you should have heard her yesterday on Medved. :(
To: Protagoras
There is also the assumption by her and many other conservatives that the vast majority of military personnel are conservative. That conclusion is the result of hysterical wishful thinking. There is no basis in fact for it.

Uh, Miller isn't exactly what you'd call right-wing.

He's to the right of a lot of what passes for Republicans these days.

A lot of people who agree with most of my philosophy of life are impossible for me to listen to. Rush got old, Hannity got old, and Coulter had to figure out a different way to get noticed after people got over the idea that a fairly pretty blonde lady could be an intelligent conservative. She chose wild statements and headlines.
I prefer thoughtful, intelligent, polite people like Tony Snow and Walter Williams.
Just me I guess, but I don't think these others will ever convince anyone (who is not already convinced) to see the light. They throw raw meat to the lions in return for money but only alienate those in the middle or on the fence who will be the only way to make true progress in changing the hearts and minds of Americans.
They may be right, but they are obnoxious.

I agree with much of what you said. Ann preaches to the choir. She does not win any converts. This, of course, is great for Kamikazi conservatives, the all or nothing folks who scoff at compromise and incrementalism, and think that losing is noble.
I still like to listen to Rush, but not when he's in his ranting GOP cheerleader mode. I switch off between Rush and Dennis, depending on the topic. I hope I'm wrong, but I have the fear that for the rest of this week, and for God knows how long afterwards, Rush will be raving hysterically about Tom Delay. If I listen to talk-radio during that time period, it will probably be to Prager. He has a very calming effect, which comes in handy when Rush is in one of his going apes**t moods.
Like you, I also enjoy Tony Snow and Walter Williams.
Hannity is a fine interviewer, but as with Laura Ingraham, you won't hear anything insightful from him.

Leave Ann alone! In each of her books she has changed the political discourse and has brought up subjects and points that many people weren't debating and discussing before she did raise them. She has every right to critique Pat Tillman. Statements like that give aid and comfort to our enemies both at home and abroad, whether you all believe it or not. Think I'm being harsh, WAR is HELL. The Civil War was ugly and so was WWII. Lincoln suspended habeas corpus and FDR interned people from all Axis countries. Ronald Reagan was able to win the Cold War without firing a nuclear shot, hopefully GW can learn some listens from him to promote greater democracy in the Arab Islamic world. We have a job to do and I have no use for traitors. Timothy McVeigh, George McGovern, John Kerry, and Adolf Hitler all served in the military, that doesn't give them a life long pass. Who does Tillman think he is? In many ways Iraq is a more important war than Afghanistan because it is the heart of the Middle East, we must strive for victory and if we have to draft than SO BE IT. I would be scared to fight in a war, but aware that freedom is not free. It's likely not going to happen since we are too spoiled and politically-correct to call Arab Islamic society evil.THESE PEOPLE WANT WAR! Why can't people remember 9-11, and the rest of the attacks that Muslim extremists have perpetuated upon us over the last 25 years. It won't go away until we end their hope and will to fight. We must face this through war or democratic subversion. Perhaps Don Feder was right, we are addicted to bumper-sticker patriotism. Yes Tillman has free speech but so does Ann, I, Rush, and all our troops. By the way, Pat didn't die a hero's death, he died in a tragic accident caused by friendly fire.
