[George W. Bush]

My own transcript. For the office-bound.

[Constitution Day]

BUMP

[pissant]

When she finds out Hunter is going to trounce Mitt, she will get on the D train.

[BunnySlippers]

[Romney] "I think he's probably our best candidate."

What happened! She was pushing Hunter the last two TV events I saw.

[YOUGOTIT]

I agree I will donate to and vote for Romney.

[seekthetruth]

Yes, and then later in her question/answer session, Ann said she has in the past supported the "under-dog candidate" and that she loves Duncan Hunter!

[NeoCaveman]

Thanks. I look forward to watching this when I get home. Tivo is a wonderful thing.

[msnimje]

Dang, you all are seriously breaking the rules about posting Ann threads.

[Calpernia]

Do you have a direct link for Ann? I clicked the CSPAn link and got the Energy Policy.

Thanks!

[meg88]

Ann supported Pat Buchanan? Must have been the 92 primaries...

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

I think the world of Ann Coulter but she is essentially saying that she applauds a liar just so long as he is lying for her. What I would like to ask her is, how do you know which side he is really on. I'm sorry but the man says L I A R to me like a big neon sign. She is calling this one wrong.

But I could vote for Gingrich.

[paulat]

Thanks for the transcript! Ann is turning into our very own Dick Morris!

[kerryusama04]

Ann will now be attacked and demeaned by the Rudy crowd in

Frankly I liked Guiliani's Speech at CPAC better than Romneys (but even so I won't be supporting either in the republican primary). I don't trust Mitt (something about him), and Guliani, he's honest, America's mayor, but too liberal for me!!

[.. but when this country gets to the point where both presidential candidates support abortion, I think we can hang it up as a country." ..]

Could be (secretly) Ann knows that state has already been reached..

[jrooney]

According to Captain's Quarters Blog here - http://www.captainsquartersblog.com/mt/

Ann said - "I'd say something about John Edwards, but if you use the word 'faggot', you have to go to rehab."

[LibertarianInExile]

Well, you can't get `em all right, Ann. Romney is simply too eager to flip-flop. I can't vote for a man I don't trust to stay on my side of the fence.

[Gritty]

[ajolympian2004]

Ann made a complete fool of herself with the comment about john edwards. What a total idiot!

[madprof98]

" . . . when this country gets to the point where both presidential candidates support abortion, I think we can hang it up as a country."

[Migraine]

Ann said:but when this country gets to the point where both presidential candidates support abortion, I think we can hang it up as a country.

Hey -- if you'll show me an electable pro-lifer, I'm in with both feet. Anyway, we're not going to eliminate abortion via executive fiat. Nor are we going to get an anti-abortion amendment anytime soon. We may win an incremental court ruling here or there, from time to time. Maybe.

So, am I saying "give up"? Nope. But we have to play within the bounds of "what's possible". I think a wise course would include massive PR campaigns on TV, billboards, etc., a la the anti-smoking campaign. It's taken 30 years; but the anti-smoking campaign has been very successful. Its tack has been to 1) point out the health problems, very graphic at times, 2) point out the social problems, saying that nobody wants to be around a smoker, 3) put smokers on a guilt trip, second-hand smoke and all, 4) ostracize smokers by denying them access to public places, 5) create smoke-free workplaces, thereby affecting people's livelihoods -- you get the idea. And, it's been very successful. Have you noticed that about the only demographic that still smokes, en masse, is the high-school-dropout crowd that lives in snaggletooth estates?

OK. So, why not shame abortion, abortionists, and abortion-users in commercials? Why not encourage entire hospitals to declare themselves "Abortion-Free Zones"? Wouldn't it be great if, as we escalated the anti-abortion campaign, the only people who, as a group, remained consumers of abortion, were the same dropout, dentally-and-mentally-challenged clientele, the ones who still smoke?? We might even secretly hope they WOULD abort. We might even punctuate the ad campaign with a proposal for "Free Abortions for All Liberals, Minorities, and Smokers". Maybe by then, people would catch on to what abortion is all about.

Meanwhile, Rudy Giuliani can govern; and, for that reason, I am not going to write him off. If he's the standard-bearer, though, the VP becomes crucial, because Rudy might not live out his term(s); I am serious about that. His health is very much an issue.
