Coulter Does NYT a Favor; Reviews Own Book

Human Events ^ | June 7, 2006 | Ann Coulter

[Lancey Howard]

Sunday Schools are public schools?

[Busywhiskers]

Again...you are being very selective in your theology. Look for example at Jesus' treatment of the money changers in the temple and his indictment of the jewish religous leaders of his time. When he dealt with sinners, he never dismissed their transgressions. In fact he usually confronted them with their sins in order that they might change. He was not some sort or namby pamby liberal, willing to forgive and forget because they had a bad childhood. Jesus understood the grave consequences of rebellion against God and eventually died to pay the penalty for the rebellion of those who would accept his sacrifice that they might find peace with God.

Incidently, your analysis of "judging" overlooks numerous passages in the Pauline epistles which are just as authoritative as the gospels.

She did not call them ragheads: However, I do agree, that we should have bombed Afghanistan and converted them to Christianity. You sound like a real wuss.

[juliej]

OOps! I thnk I went after the wrong person. sorry.

[JNL]

Well that's pretty simple I thought the Alabama Supreme Court removed the Ten Commandments (not liberals). Annie's facts sometime need a bit of checking.

Hey if it pays the bills.....

[roses of sharon]

Yes, FR is full of the sniveling sissified these days, lol.

[Dick Vomer]

Any respect I had for her just went down the toilet. First, earlier this year, I heard that she called all Muslims "ragheads" at the CPAC convention, and now this? Talk about walking right into the stereotype of a conservative: Racist rube.

....there are more than a few scientist that think Darwinian evolution isn't spot on with the "Scientific Method"... As an example... where is the humanoid between the ape and man...

bwahahahaha... I'd like to see the libs touch this one question. Let me see.... where o where is the "missing link"????

Mitochondrial DNA and RNA matching should help follow some of these "species" developments, but science is finding out that maybe "DNA" alone isn't the only thing present in the cell nucleus that propagates genetic material and traits.

I consider Ms. Coulter a "lawyer gone good". She's just saying what a lot of conservatives would like to say if they had a microphone. Most of the Muzzies in the middle east, the ones that allow the evil to continue and are two faced liars...yep "ragheads".

The 4 widows that are so keen on publicity that they're a little cottage industry... yeah they seem like typical lib cows that make excuses for murder while their husband got fried.

...and finally, all libs suck, but it depends on what your definition of the word "suck" is.

Incidently, your analysis of "judging" overlooks numerous passages in the Pauline epistles which are just as authoritative as the gospels.

I have noticed that people cherry-pick what they want to believe, and whose example they want to follow.

[Antoninus]

One poster defined Coulter's style as "polemical humor."

That's exactly her style. She's one of the best practitioners of the art.

I get the impression from some that one should rarely take anything she says seriously.

On the contrary, what makes her writing humorous is that the reader recognizes there's an element of absolute truth--and that Ann is expounding upon taboo subjects that most of us wouldn't dare address in public. And the best part of it is that she is fast on her feet and makes her critics look like fatuous boobs.

I'm surprised that so many of the high-priests of relativist materialism here on FR have absolutely no sense of humor!

Personally, I can't WAIT to read this book!

[Old_Mil]

But then the store is located very near the University of Notre Dame, whence miracles major and minor occur on a regular basis.

Except when the refs interfere...

[Busywhiskers]

"I have noticed that people cherry-pick what they want to believe, and whose example they want to follow."

Precisely why care and discipline is needed to draw applications from scripture.

[pgyanke]

Maybe you need a history lesson. The Alabama Supreme Court, Attorney General and Governor backed Roy Moore until a liberal federal judge issued his decree. Under intense liberal media and ACLU-type pressure the Alabama Supreme Court (and the other officials) did nothing more than comply with the federal ruling.

Roy Moore was ousted by the AL Supreme Court for not bowing to the federal ruling on an AL state constitutional matter. The AG and Governor and colleagues on the court bemoaned the lawlessness that would ensue from not following a ruling of a judge... juridictional and constitutional questions notwithstanding.

[Ramius]

Hey, cool... you can dispense absolution yourself? That's really handy. I was afraid I'd have to rely on Jesus. He's so busy you know...

So how do you distribute this judgement of yours? By the pound or by the hour? Can I get some by this weekend?

[Right Wing Professor]

Was that absolutely the only example of "details or hard facts" given in her book?

It wasn't a fact. It was a stupid lie.

You couldn't find any facts whatsoever in the book?

Oh, so your test for a good book is one in which a few things happen actually to be true?

[subterfuge]

Another AC thread hijacked by Right Wing Prof.

[Dracian]

For as much as Coulter talks about the liberal doctrine of infallability, I believe we're beginning to witness the birth of the right's equivalent - "Ann Coulter Is Never Wrong, And If You Think She's Wrong, She Was Really Just Kidding."

I just listened to Hugh Hewitt interviewing some liberal loon last evening. Hugh challenged the loon's sweeping allegations (Gitmo was the same as the gulag, etc.) The loon fell back on "I was only trying to get people to think ...."

It's intellectual laziness. In Annie's case, it is to sell her books to the sheeple.

[Right Wing Professor]

You are correct about Right Wing Professor not having a sense of humor. I posted what I thought was a rather humorous comment on crevo thread a few months back and his response still stands in my mind as jerky. I can't remember his comment but I sure do remember the impression it left.

"He said something mean to me, but I don't remember what it was". Grow up.

[Senator Bedfellow]

Who knew the sweaty-palms demographic was so huge? Aside from Ann, that is.

[Heartlander]

I know it's hard to believe anyone could publish something that stupid...

In North America the black bear was seen by Hearne swimming for hours with widely open mouth, thus catching, like a whale, insects in the water. Even in so extreme a case as this, if the supply of insects were constant, and if better adapted competitors did not already exist in the country, I can see no difficulty in a race of bears being rendered, by natural selection, more aquatic in their structure and habits, with larger and larger mouths, till a creature was produced as monstrous as a whale.
-Darwin

[Right Wing Professor]

This is why you don't get Coulter... you have no sense of humor. Tell me, did she provide a footnote for who "they" are and when "they" said it or do you think, possibly, this could be hyperbole to make a larger point?

Coulter is all hyperbole. There is nothing else.
