John Edwards: Coulter's 'crazy'
NBC ^ | June 27, 2007 | Domenico Montanaro

Posted on 06/27/2007 4:42:12 PM PDT by Baladas

A day after his wife Elizabeth called in to MSNBC’s “Hardball” to confront conservative commentator Ann Coulter, Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards made his own appearance on the show.

He dismissed Coulter, calling her “mean-spirited,” having no shame and being “crazy.” He defended his wife’s efforts to ask Coulter to drop her personal attacks, saying, “You have to stand up to them.”

“I don’t think [Coulter] has any shame; there’s no doubt about that,” Edwards said. “I think that's just the way she behaves. That's who she is. And I think that's a lot of what we see from these people who are just -- that are crazy.”

i don’t understand why ann doesn’t point out the mean spiritedness
of levelling false accusations against a neighbor. elizabeth edwards
didn’t seem to have any problem telling the press that her neighbor
pointed guns at people although this was untrue.

Point is, she was paraphrasing Bill Maher’s insult to Cheney.

Of the DOZEN or so threads posted on this forum in the last few days about the Chris Matthews/Elizabeth Edwards "attempted sandbagging" of our Ann, here is the best SUMMARY thread, IMHO:

“And then you still have Freepers that watch MSNBC and ‘Hardball.’”

Masochism?

If Chris Mathews were fair and balanced he may have asked Mrs. Edwards about the transexual (adams apple) jokes her side has been using against against Ann Coulter for years now.

Crazy...like a fox. I understand Coulter’s book sales have gone through the roof in the last 24 hours.

Woe is us; Pathos is the dominant feature of modern rhetoric. Ethos is dead and logos is reserved for eggheaded nerds...

Perfect electoral climate for a runt muscle like Edwards to thrive.

Now let’s all stand back and watch gold fall from the heavens into Edward’s purse.

Ann certainly held her own against the attack by Elizab*tch Edwards. She’s crazy, yes. Crazy like a fox.

I wonder if John Edwards will have his wife call Vladimir Putin or Nickolas Sarkozy if he gets elected president (fat chance)and they do something he doesn’t like???

Freaking weenie.

These liberals are disgusting - for Matthews to have sandbagged Coulter like that? It’s unethical and sooooo typical. Oh geez, don’t get me started.

I have to turn the rant machine off.

Dude, this isn’t a Hunter thread. Go pimp your .0001% candidate elsewhere.

I couldn't believe that Sissy Matthews kept harping about Ann describing Shrillery as "running away on her chubby little legs."
I wanted to butt in for her: "Why shouldn't I describe Hillary's chubby little legs? Are you denying that Hillary's has chubby little legs? Is there something wrong with mentioning Hillary's chubby little legs? It's nothing but descriptive language: Hillary undeniably does have chubby little legs...not that there's anything wrong with that! Do you think that there's something wrong with Hillary having chubby little legs?"
