One of the major differences between liberals and conservatives is that liberals are much more susceptible to group think. Most on the left are content to accept the prevailing leftist talking points as their own without questioning any of the intellectual underpinnings of said argument. (Think global warming..)
Conservatives, on the other hand, are more likely to rely on the substance and facts of a debate instead of drawing their conclusions based on 'consensus' and 'feelings'. At least that used to be so.
Enter Ann Coulter.

LOL - I just laugh her off and feel sorry for her supporters. Consider this an intervention for all of you that worship at her feet.
If the money dried up on the right, she'd be doing the same thing for the left.
She's a snake oil salesman and she is destructive to the conservative cause.
And I suppose when Whoopi said all that vulgar stuff about Bush you were right there cheering her right to say what she did!
They don't claim to represent conservatives, Coulter does.
I would love to marry her. She so gets it - and she's easy on the eyes too :)
We've gone overboard with this PC crap. I'm Irish and I'm an American. I don't think I'm better than everyone else so I won't ask to be called an "Irish American".
She calls them as she see's them with an emphasis on being politically incorrect. It makes her unique, no?
I don't give a Ratz A for whatever happens to Ann's career.
I know that I am in a culture war with a bad, bad enemy. Unlike all the wuzzies on this site who declare themselves soldiers in that war, but then don't want to get "dirty" I will get right in the sh!t pit with them and God help them because as low as they can go, I can and will go lower.
Makes me no better than them?\
Going to a gun fight and not shooting back is stupid. Period. And I don't like stupid people.j
Ann shoots back, it gives the ratz fits. It gives them heart burn. It ruins their night. It makes their heads hurt.
Yea Team!!
Inferring Edwards is a faggot while making a joke when in fact there is no proof nor allegations he is a gay was the only issue I had. Nonetheless, I'm pleased with her speech, and cannot care less about the sensitive souls in the MSM.
He has wrapped himself in a pretty boy package that has faggot characteristics. Ann defied PC bs by indirectly saying so. Timid repubs and rhinos reacted by running for cover to hide from MSN wrath. Proof? I don't need no stinking proof! Go git em Anny!
"They don't claim to represent conservatives, Coulter does."
Duhh, no fooling Watson!!
They DO claim to represent liberals though, right?
I can't believe you wrote that!
I wish just one of the MEN running for president had half the metal Ann has. Her comment was highlighted out of context by the MSM as usual, but she isn't frightened at all by the big bad press! I really admire her......but I'm not an elitest.
who ya gonna call when ya wanna bust a liberal?
.......
She doesn't bother the Democrats at all - if anything she is probably one of their biggest fund raisers. The Democrats love having someone like Coulter perpetually shooting her mouth off.
You are kidding yourself if you think you and Coulter are any value in the "culture war" by flame throwing. The democrats love people like you and Coulter - every time you "get down and dirty" it makes conservatives look like loons and creates 4 more democratic voters.
Don't kid yourself. If it weren't for Ann's comments, the dinosaur media would never even have mentioned CPAC.
Hooray Ann Coulter BUMP!
Ann got the attention that she craves at the expense of the conference. It isn't courage that drives her, but ego.
>>>I know that I am in a culture war with a bad, bad enemy
But doesn't Ann's use of such a term contribute to the coarsening of the culture she is supposed to be protecting? I've noticed here on FR. The use of the the word faggot seems to appear on many non-coulter threads, whereas I barely recall seeing it used on FR prior to this event.
Why should I care what some liberal hack does? Let them shoot their mouths off - they just create new conservative voters when they do.
"Semantic totalitarianism is at the very heart of what needs to change or we've already lost."
Amen to that!
