Coulter: I've never had sex with a liberal 'Godless' author makes admission on 'Tonight Show with Jay Leno'

---------------------------------------------------------

Despite reams of media hype about George Carlin appearing with Ann Coulter on "the Tonight Show with Jay Leno," there were no political fireworks during the segment featuring the controversial author of "Godless."

"This is the last time we have eHarmony match up the guests," Leno clowned during his opening monologue last night.

Carlin, the 69-year-old anti-establishment comedian appeared before Ann Coulter - - only made one reference to Coulter's conservative politics when Leno introduced her, as he shuffled his position down the couch on stage.

"I never thought that when Ann Coulter came out, I would have to move to the right. But I did," Carlin joked, to audience laughter.

Coulter says liberals are "obsessed" with one sentence of one chapter in her new N.Y. Times No. 1 best-seller, where she discussed four 9-11 widows using the deaths of their husbands to push a political cause.

Leno asked, "Is the point of the book to move forth your conservative ideas – what you think – or is it to sell books?"

"It is to make a point, and now that it is the No. 1 book in the country, I think that point will be made," Coulter said to loud applause. "The funny thing about this is I'm calling liberals 'Godless.' Oh, they're cool with that. Just don't attack the Jersey Girls."

Leno asked why Coulter used the term "broads" to refer to the widows in her book, while calling them "women" during a previous television appearance.

"Men use the word 'broads' all the time to talk about women," Coulter responded. "If we're getting to that level of parsing my language, there will be no end to this."

Stewart was such a putz to Ken Mehlman Tuesday night, I was yelling at the TV. My husband finally had to tell me to settle.

One cannot be civil when conversating or debating with a liberal[socialists] because they will not allow one to.

All they know how to do is use profanity and shout slogans and what they perceive as insults.

For the record, I thought Carlin's act was not funny. It's an updated version of shtick he's done for years.

All he did was juxtapose popular phrases that have something in opposition, like "I'm an alpha male on beta blockers," for about five minutes. It was a nice laundry list, but it wasn't funny, no.

Conversing, dear, conversing. There's no such word as "conversating."

Does anybody know where I could find a transcript of her appearance on Leno? Couldn't stay up that late, and forgot to record it. Thanks!

Thanks.

It is early here and I could not come up with the word I wanted to use because I am still 3/4 asleep.

His delivery was more impressive than the laundry list, I agree. I must admit, though, that I thought the best sound bite was the "alpha male on beta blockers."

I guess it would have been funnier if he weren't so patently NOT an alpha male.

For me to find something funny, it has to be true, or it has to be absurd. A laundry list of adjectives is neither.

My main criticism with Leno is that he has become very repititous over the years .

The types of jokes he makes now are the ones he was making 10, 15 yrs ago .

Yes, Stewart is poison . .

I noticed that trend with this loudmouth on the Daily Show four years ago- he is just another liberal demagogue .

Al Franken is worse, but does not enjoy any mainstream success .

Hopefully they both go out the same way as they godfather:
ERIC BERG !

"Coulter says liberals are "obsessed" with one sentence of one chapter..."

Liberal smoke and mirrors...how better to distract from the rest of the book than to focus on one line. They know exactly what they are doing. Which means, Ann hit some serious nerves

Carlin was there to promote a Disney movie, not to debate Ann.
