The Boston Globe's cartoon, by staffer Dan Wasserman, on the editorial page of the paper's June 11th edition, took the condemnation of Ann Coulter to new depths, suggesting that her criticism of the 'Jersey Girls'- the 9/11 widows turned harsh Bush administration critics - is equivalent to the desecration of the graves of the 9/11 victims themselves. Wasserman also swipes at what he perceives to be Coulter's brand of Christianity.
If anyone has urged a muscular response to those responsible for the deaths of the 9/11 victims, it has been Ann Coulter. Wonder how many cartoons the Globe ran condemning Ward Churchill, who actually accused the WTC victims of being "little Eichmanns"?
Boston Globe/NewsBusters ping to Today show list.
Sorry to post on this thread, but it just happened to be at the top ... there are pornographic headlines repeating all the way down the sidebar. You'll want to delete them, I'd think.
Either that, or they're lying. As always...
Funny, though, considering the ethnic studies Marxist retread, Churchill, did smear the 9/11 victims - and nary a word from the terribly concerned Stalinists in the media.
[*It's more like every hour.]
The irony is that these people are proving her point true: That the left is saying that you can't talk argue about the 9-11 widows' "pain".

If you are against "Illegal" Immigrants, you are anti-immigration.
If you attack the "Jersey Girls," you attack all victims of 9/11.

So I guess Ted Rall's comments were about ALL who've died in service dying for no good reason.
Ann Coulter, even if she is correct, let the rats pick the battleground and now that's she's playing in their territory, she's susceptible to their attacks.
"Sleep with dogs, wake up with flees" sums it up.
There is something to be said for taking a mature, adult perspective in dealing with infantile liberal attacks. Yet once you step into the gutter to play with them, you lower yourself and subject yourself to the same kinds of criticism as they are so well deserving of.
Ann spoke the truth, but it was the way she said it that got her into this rotton tomato throwing contest. Yet she chose to lower herself to their level and this is the results. It's going to take a long time to wash the smell of the gutters off.
wonder if they ran the Kennedy cartoons since Bridge Boy went swimming up until Jr. smashed into the Capitol
Ann loves this crap - just look at how immature the liberal left reacts to her book.
Amazing the number of "reporters" ignorantly criticing Ann Coulter without reading what she wrote. For what it's worth, autographed copies of GODLESS are sold out.

They assume that thier propaganda is watertight, and have a "let them eat cake " attitude to the masses.
Anne is very sophisticated in that she knows that if she drives the MONNBATS hard enough, they actually will do THEMSELVES in. This we have seen with Ran Dather and others, who cannot face reality, so therefore seek to redefine it.
It is this tendency to redefine reality rather than to deal with it that comprises the greatest threat to our nation and its freedom. Anne won't let them do it.
They would've thrown a fit anyway.
It's the machinegun snubs that make the book fun to read.

You're correct, and that kind of blows away part of my argument. The only concern for Ann is that it does kind of makes folks on the right who would support her question her method. The scum on the left? They roll in this filth, but some people who are interested in what Ann would say might be concerned that her commentary goes into a place they might not want to follow considering her rhetoric.
Also, I forgot the "sarcasm" tag on my "don't encourage us" comment on the Monty Python stuff on the other thread. : )
