Lord, what a bunch of twittering little panty-waists. All these criticisms of Ann. Go peddle your sanctimony somewhere else. On Free Republic, we love her.
Hmmm. Is than an order, jim35? ;-)
First off, I'm going to assume that the irony of someone who defends Ann's decision to engage in crass junior-varsity trash talk on the CPAC dais on free speech grounds (ludicrously irrelevant grounds as those might be) is now insisting that those of us here who've begun to question the net contribution she's been bringing to the growth of the conservative movement lately should not themselves have the right to freely address those concerns on FR cannot be entirely lost upon you.
Therefore, if I may be so presumptuous as to try to decipher the true intent of your suggestion that I skedaddle forthwith from these boards, I can only imagine that what you are really implying is that the effort to try to interject some healthy skepticism on this & similar threads about the conventional wisdom prevalently expressed here, that Ann's continued insistence on drawing attention to herself at the expense of conservative candidates & the wider appeal of the conservative message they are attempting to market to the masses in order to win elections, is indeed as wonderful a thing as the amen chorus of barking hyenas here would seem to believe is really just a colossal waste of time.
Given the fact that those of us who take the minority view here that Ann's tiresome self-serving shtick is in all probability benefiting liberals more than anyone else at this point & who also question the direction in which most of the knees around here are jerking at the moment are vastly outnumbered (at last count, I think we were up to, what, 5?), it's quite clear you do indeed have a very valid point.
On that point, I will willingly, albeit wistfully & with great regret, concede. Touché, my FRiend!
