Ann Coulter's cynical swindle (bunched panties alert)

I italicized the point the author made that I agree with, and it is that point to which my comment referred.

I did not comment on the the point the author made, to which you referred, you did.

And yet this writer "prostitutes" his authorship by selling Ann Coulter on the headline to push his agenda of The International Obesity Task Force.

Good catch.

"Apparently he went to Law School with her."

If true, that explains a lot. Poor thing.

Personally, I think P.J. O'Rourke is much, much hotter than Ann Coulter. :)

[alecqss]

That should settle sinkspur's family business.

"...combination of ideological and erotic perversion that's disturbing to contemplate"

She threatens him somewhere deep inside. His own male hormones must scare the crap out of him.

[Lancey Howard]

Weird column. The topic switch was more than a little obtuse - - a segue it was not.

[Pharmboy]

Here's one from someone you love:

The ones who might say anti-Kerry stuff are at home, taking care of their children. You don't see Debra Burlingame out commenting on John Edwards' using a compact to brush his lashes.

These women [the Jersey Girls] are opportunists. They make a living off the blood of their dead husbands.

I wonder what you would say if Ann said what you said. You're not only an Ann hater, you're a phony one at that.

" 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." Where is he getting this garbage?? She looks fine. A tart? They both look good to me! Somebody has some unresolved issues, I think...probably where that "erotic perversion" comment came from. Takes one to know one, eh, Paulie? ;-)

[pillut48]

Ann doesn't have to make Matt do that. He's quite capable all by himself!!

"Not the war in Iraq, I mean THE WAR ON TERROR?!?!"

Bonehead.

Unless of course you consider the remark, "Prostitution, however, is a tricky business" as a very deep, profound statement.

I don't consider it deep or profound, but it is a clever pun: "prostitution" and "tricky business" - very neat.

Well, you've got to hand it to him on one point: Writing of Ann Coulter and obesity in the same column requires a prodigious imagination.

"Nothing "settles family business." There are always idiots who need to be whacked."

I wonder, who might that be?

["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."

Don't like girls, eh, Paul?]

That's what I thought. Paul seems a little too uncomfortable, and his writing style resembles the way a jealous Queen would describe Ann.

[Pharmboy]

Then sell your bile, don't give it away for free. Ann figured it out...perhaps you're jealous of her because you can't make a penny from YOUR noxious emissions.
