RIGHTY WRITER COULTER HURLS NASTY GIBES AT 9/11 GALS [the "Godless" counter-attack begins]
New York Post ^ | 6/7/06 | NILES LATHEM

.

June 7, 2006 -- WASHINGTON - Conservative rabble-rouser Ann Coulter created an uproar among 9/11 victims' families yesterday after she charged in her new book that a group of "self-obsessed" politically active widows are enjoying their husbands' deaths.

The razor-tongued blond polemicist made unflattering remarks about the high-profile widows who liked to call themselves the "Jersey girls." In Coulter's latest book, "Godless," she calls them "harpies" and the "Witches of East Brunswick."

I've tried to come up with any way to read that so it doesn't come off incredibly anti-semitic but I have failed.

The source may only be Widow-Baiter wannabe, not a master.

But since that comment seemed so nasty and anti-semitic and yet he is still here I thought surely I must be misreading.

I don't have an anti-Jewish bone in my body because I am one quarter of a Jew myself, but I have a deep dislike for any Jew that sides with the Democrat Party hastening the destruction of the Jewish race. Don't you dare call me anti-semitic. You know zilch about me. FYI, I have worked very closely in Israel with both the IAF and IDF on covert assignments, and they are among the best folks in the world. They have the same blood in them that Abraham, Moses, Joshua, Gideon, etc. had passing through them, the mighty leaders of the Jewish race. These mighty and daring leadership Jews would be appalled at the present day Jewish mentality in sucking up to the Democrat "traitor/treason" Party!!!

Ann's publishers must be over the moon. You can't buy this kind of publicity. She'll rocket to the top of the NY Times bestseller list. Heh.

If your intent was not to be anti-semitic then I apologize for concluding that your intent was anti-semitic.

I have the feeling, however, that this part of your post

>>These women that Ann Coulter so aptly and correctly refers to are mostly, if not all, American Jews. If they got their political wishes, they would be the first raped, abused and then beheaded by the Muslim terrorists that killed their husbands<<

would be viewed as anti-semitic by most Americans even if you say you are/have been an undercover Israeli agent.

I'm not the anti-semitic, the Democrat Party is!!! Their politics and politics are going to get millions of Jews and Americans killed, and the American people are too stupid to see it!!! Saying I told you so, will not bring back loved ones and innocent children slaughtered by Muslim terrorists, aided and abetted by the current Democrat Party.

Later I lent the book to several English speaking Germans (and one Brit), only one of them being a die-hard conservative (the Brit). Most of them don't know the first thing about American politics, but Ann's style got through to them, anyway: They all loved the book. Clearly, this woman had something important to say, and they all wanted to learn more about it :-)

Thanks for that account of your experience. It just confirms that predicting people's attitudes and responses is much more problematic than some here assume.

For me, it distills down to this simple logic: if Coulter's methods were not effective, the Left would simply ignore her.

To who, the MSM (Excuse me, bwahahahahah)rational people already knew the Jersey chicks were dancing on their dead husbands graves.

Coulter just repeated what everyone was thinking and those who sympathized with them are already on their side anyway.

Wow, not as bad as you make it out. Not unless you worry about what Matt Lauer says.

Notice that the New York Daily News article you posted as # 16 didn't even mention the fact that the Jersey Girls did partisan commercials for the Democrats in the '04 campaign. This is an important omission, because their own actions transformed them from bereaved widows to Democratic politicos, thus making them legitimate political targets. Of course, since the Daily News is owned by Clintonista tycoon Mort Zuckerman, the writer of the article is probably due a nice bonus for leaving that key fact out.

Still, Coulter's speculation on the husbands' divorce plans and possible appearances in Playboy magazine go a bit beyond the pale. A more alert editor may have saved Ann from some of the abuse the MSM lefties are heaping on her.

Perhaps your posts are misleading those who read them. We don't know who you are; you are judged entirely by the content of your postings.

I repeat, the only place to get new Republicans is to convert Democrats. There is no other place to get them.
If this seems too hard to you, well, too bad. Who told you politics was easy?

These women that Ann Coulter so aptly and correctly refers to are mostly, if not all, American Jews. If they got their political wishes, they would be the first raped, abused and then beheaded by the Muslim terrorists that killed their husbands. And....all of this abetted and actively aided by the current Democrat "traitor/treason" Party, whom these morons support. Go figure what idiots these women are!!! Don't let up Ann Coulter, these women and the Democrat Party they support are nothing but pure scum and vermin!!! End of story!!!

Thanks Petronski.

I’m sorry to read that. While not always a great fan of Ann’s approach, I generally agree with here positions. If this is true, then here critics are right. She’s doing nothing more than giving life to conservatives as a bunch of bigots. Veronica might know if she’s expressed these opinions before.

Of course I recognize there’s a remote possibility that JLAGRAYFOX made the Jew connection up, in which case he/she is giving life to conservatives as a bunch of bigots and Freerepublic as their home.

Just to set the record straight as I see it, only one of the four Jersey Girls, Mindy Kleinberg, has a Jewish sounding name. The other three are unlikely to be Jewish.

I, from my Jewish perspective, do not take this as an indication that you are antisemitic, but merely as an error of fact.

It was a dumb comment.

Most Jews would read it and write off your opinions.

New republicans are raised and home schooled.. Once hanging from the federal teat(FOR STUFF).. They will be that way until social security time.. or before(many on social security are not retired).. "Born again", free republicans are usually/mostly RINOs..

You are what you are... Bush and the RINOS are IMPORTING millions of democrats from across the border (and elsewhere).. with a few RINOs thrown in.. I'll give to you though.. being a democrat(RINO) or a real republican is almost a religious experience, say a psuedo-religious experience.. Democrats(RINOs) are indeed EVIL... Which means that most(not all) American federal givernment officials are pretty EVIL..

Preach on; but realists can read the "writing on the wall"..

Just for fun I searched a bit.

Obviously we can't judge the wives faiths from their husbands, but I don't know what else to look to. I'm not going to phone them.

From the employers sites listing memorial services, we've got two services in Synagogue, Kenneth (Lorie) Van Auken and Alan (Mindy) Kleinberg. Two Catholic masses, Richard (Monica) Gabrielle and John (Patty) Casazza.

Have to play the name game, a favoite when identifying Jews, with Ron (Kristen) Breitweiser. Parents, Frederick and Geraldine, siblings, Rick, Christian, and Mary. Jews don't name their children Christian and Mary very often, and Kristen is identified as Swedish, so I'd guess non-Jew. They were married on the beach, so I'll give them to the new agers.

Non-neocon Jews, 2, Catholics, 2, Newagers, 1.

Aptly and correctly mostly if not all Jews.
