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.”

Isn't this an example of projection?

good on ya......I’ve posted that exact sentiment for two days.......................and why did NBC do this ?

They knew Ann was a book chapter and verse writer who could support her points. She did too.

Do you remember one point she made other than Edwards ?...If yes,most don’t.

Edwards is broke and falling so this energized a woman with cancer who lost a son............

Ann Coulter attacked cancer and dead babies.....

Now Chris is not seen as the P&$$@ he really is and was last night.

See how he ran to the embred society at the TODAY SHOW this mornin ?

These comments could not fit more perfectly into Ann’s view of liberals. Everything is crazy, stupid, or mean to them if they are losing on the issues.

So much for his disdain for personal attacks.

If you see a greasy spot on the road, do you know how to tell if it was made by a trial lawyer or a possum?

If it had been a possum there would be skid marks.

Isn't this a personal attack?

“You have to stand up to them.”

LOL. So why did his wife do it and not him?

That is the question, usually learned on a playground at about age 5.

This is one last gasp for attention. His numbers and dollars go up when they are victims....her cancer, their dead son, etc., etc. Now he can be a victim of that cruel meany Ann Coulter.

He's drowning and Ann Coulter became his life preserver, for another few days.

He did not have the cajones to call in or appear.

He had to have his wife take care of it.

That may be because the paperback just came out.

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

Like...uh...uh...dude (or dudette?), it's a Coulter thread, and I also wrote...

"People who pretend hypersensitivity to truthful speech in order to have others fired or banned are either crazy, evil or both. There’s a disease of that in our society, and the trend toward pretended hypersensitivities needs to be eradicated by Coulter’s methods."

But here's an opinion from Ann Coulter for you.

“Good Morning America’s Chris Cuomo interviews Coulter, promotes Godless”
Media Matters

Excerpts:

COULTER: Actually, my favorite candidate is [Rep.] Duncan Hunter [R-CA], and he is magnificent. The problem is most people say, “Who’s Duncan Hunter?” He’s a genuine war hero. He has one son, I think, in Iraq, one in Afghanistan. He is good on every single issue. He has been out front on building a wall. He did build a wall at San Diego. He’s very good on — on the life issue. He’s good on everything.

[...]

COULTER: — it just shows how unhappy we are with McCain, Giuliani and Romney that — that Thompson steps in. People know very little about him and “Oh, he’s our guy,” and it’s sort of like that with Obama, that the Democrats aren’t happy with their leading candidate, [Sen.] Hillary [Rodham Clinton (D-NY)], so they gravitate to Obama knowing nothing about him, and him being, you know, 14 years old.

When a dem candidate is reduced to debating Ann Coulter - a nobody - that is a sure sign they are not of presidential timber.
