Coulter threads seperate the men from the boyz here on FR. All the pseudo-conservatives come crawling out of their rocks bashing Coulter with the exact shrill strawman and out-of-context arguments the Left themselves use.
Here's the rub. It's been two days since the release of the book. You have 400+ comments on this thread. Now, although I don't expect an honest answer from the studio audience:
"How many commenting have actually READ her book?"
I suspect the same number that decided to comment on 'The Bell Curve' without reading it.
I am in the midst of reading the book right now. It is typical Ann Coulter. And once one gets past that tongue planted firmly in cheek ( no innuendoes, please ), she does raise some interesting points in the sections I have read through.
And, I've noticed on these threads regarding Ann's book several characteristics of her detractors:
1. The same folks who wanted to ban, shout down, or (if they had a gun ) shoot those criticising the nomination of Harriet Miers
2. The same folks who want to ban, shout down, ot ( if they had a gun ) shoot those who are against the Bush/Rino/Democrat amnesty for illegal aliens
3. The folks who usually confine themselves to the same attic as the crazy aunt (crevo threads).
In all three cases, a good number of the critics tend to be some of the most disingenuous debators on this forum. The book is definitely akin to a winnowing fork to separate grain from chaff.
Well said EEE.
