I picked up on that too, and I swear I didn't read your post before I posted mine (even though I probably should have).:)

If he does like girls (and I'm not real sure) his ideal mate would have hairy armpits, a uni-brow, smell like a musk explosion and scream out "Karl Marx!" at the moment of (faked) orgasm. Come to think of it, I might have described Ward Churchill.

I think you are correct. Furthermore, SHE threatens the status quo minds, and I find that most amusing to behold.
Those Jersey gal were the 'fixture' that the leftists used to promote their Soviet style 911 Commission, however, thanks be to John Ashcroft we tax payers did not get totally shafted he identified the 'Wall' and the 'Wall-builders' that allowed the terrorists among US.
To: sinkspur
Thanks, you proved the point Ann was making in her book. The Jersey girls are allowed to go out and make asinine, factually incorrect statements, but no one can say anything the least bit critical about them because they lost their husbands.

I'm sure we can not criticize the professor either. He's lost his mind, how dare you!
Speaking of which, we can not criticize Gore, Kerry, Dean, and entire left movement either.

She's down right skinny! It's a matter of taste, I suppose. I generally like women with a bit more meat on their bones, but Ann Coulter is welcome at my house just the way she is.

LIBERAL TALK SHOW HOPPING "is like prostitution. First you do it for love, then for a few close friends, and then for money." Thought I would correct his quote.

The whole column seems to reveal troubled sexuality, with the scattering of words like whore, prostitute, and trophy wife.
I agree, right at the very first of the article:
This aphorism is brought forcefully to mind by the cover of Ann Coulter's latest book, leering at customers from the windows of America's biggest bookstores. As always, the cover features a portrait of the artist as a young tart, blond locks flowing, her size zero little black dress catering to a combination of ideological and erotic perversion that's disturbing to contemplate.
Especially that "her size zero little black dress". I can't believe a man is jealous of a woman's petite body! What, is this author secretly trans-gendered or something? How catty is that? I guess because he wishes it was him in that little black dress, then all the handsome men would be surrounding Campos and not that fraud Coulter who steals his dresses and gets all that attention from the men!

I don't get it. P. J. O'Rourke has been saying way more controversial things for way longer, and hasn't received a fraction of the condemnation of Ann. I get it just fine. P.J. manages to be hard-hitting without being completely obnoxious about it, and the things he says adhere closely to the truth, unlike Ann's willingness to spew blatantly false accusations.
If the many examples at the link aren't enough for you, here's another: On page 206, she wrote, in regards to an article by biologist Jerry Coyne, "But, curiously, Coyne never got around to addressing Behe's argument for intelligent design the centerpiece of the subject Coyne claimed to be discussing." This is a blatant and transparent lie. Coulter claims that "Coyne never got around to addressing Behe's argument for intelligent design", but Coyne actually spent FIFTEEN PARAGRAPHS of that article doing exactly that, starting at the sentence which begins, "IDers make one claim that they tout as truly novel..." Ann even quoted from Coyne's discussion of Behe's argument later in her book, so she can't claim not to have seen it. So why does she tell a blatant falsehood to her readers? Apparently because it's easier to pretend (no matter how false it is) that no one has been willing/able to mount a rebuttal to Behe's argument (in reality, scores of biologists have), than to actually deal with the points raised by such rebuttals. Ann would rather just lie to her readers in order to give them an entirely false impression. It's easier to "win" the issue that way -- just say what you *wish* the truth was, instead of dealing with the actual reality. Of course, that's exactly how Michael Moore and his ilk do it also. Ann Coulter has become the sort of propagandist she used to denounce.
I've documented many dozens of examples of this kind of flat-out dishonesty from Ann in her book's chapters on science and biology. If anyone wants to be pinged to my eventual post listing them all (warning, it's going to be LONG), just FreepMail me and ask to be put on the ping list.
*This* is why P.J. O'Roarke doesn't get the flak Ann Coulter does -- he doesn't dishonestly slander people with blatant falsehoods, nor attack topics he doesn't actually understand.

This liberal has called Ann Coulter a moll. But he hasn't disagreed with a single ONE of her ideas in her book. Liberals are just afraid to go there, to debate ideas. So his idea of beating Ann Coulter is to just dismiss her. Ain't that just a like a man? It seems liberal men lose their male powress in front of a conservative woman. That hurts real bad, yeah with their metrosexual manhood all called into question! (laughing)

I hope you mercifully won't consider this as a ping to join your "eventual" list...
It was impossible for Mr. Coyne to spend 15 paragraphs on countering Behe's intelligent design arguments. The entire article contains only 11 of them.
