If our job, as proud Conservatives, is to frustrate 1 liberal a day, Ann Coutler has done our job for us, and THANK GOD!

Go Ann Go !

Vice President Coulter was great on O’Reilly last night, too...I am just in awe of her brilliance.
From another thread:
They're claiming Coulter knew it was going to happen.
Sort of.
Ann apparently only found out about it a few minutes before the show began.
See also, from www.foxnews.com
-- snip --

O'REILLY: Continuing now with Ann Coulter. A brand-new FOX News/Opinion Dynamics poll says is favored by just 10 percent of Democratic voters. That is not good. So Edwards needs attention, and he needs money in order to jumpstart his campaign. Maybe that's why Elizabeth Edwards called a television program to confront Ms. Coulter the other day.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP FROM "HARDBALL")

ELIZABETH EDWARDS, WIFE OF JOHN EDWARDS: The things that she has said over the years, not just about John, but about other candidates, it lowers our political dialogue precisely at the time we need to raise it. So I wanted to use the opportunity, which I don't get much because Ann and I don't hang out with the same people, to ask her politely to stop the personal attacks.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

O'REILLY: OK. Now after that interview, and nobody knows this, we called Elizabeth Edwards and we said, you know, we're really interested in this personal attack stuff because we have a problem with that on the left. Would you come on, either sit on a set or on a phone? No.

Now I am saying to myself, wait a minute, you call into a program that no one watches, all right. And you have a point, right? No one watches. Because nobody sees this.

COULTER: That is accurate.

O'REILLY: I'm giving you a forum where 10 million people on radio and TV are going to see it and you say, “No.”

(LAUGHTER)

O'REILLY: Then I'm saying, maybe there's something else here. And I think they used you. I think the Edwards, John and Elizabeth, used you to get attention to him. Because what he is doing this morning? You saw him.

COULTER: Well, they're all over the networks, including , lying about what I said.

O'REILLY: But it doesn't even — look, we expect that kind of thing when you are involved. But what's John Edwards doing this morning? He's screaming about, they're giving me money.

COULTER: I think he is taking orders from Elizabeth.

O'REILLY: I think Elizabeth is smarter than he is.

COULTER: I am not sure this is a brilliant fundraising ploy.

O'REILLY: They have gotten a lot of money.

COULTER: Not as much as I have off of his attacks on me. And I mean, as is evident even today, they're going to be a lot more Americans who like Ann Coulter than hate Ann Coulter. Good luck with your fundraising, John.

O'REILLY: All right. So you don't think that you were taken here? You don't think they set you up on the show?

COULTER: Well, I don't know what you mean, set up. I don't think there's any possible way.

O'REILLY: Well, I mean, they said, look, we got Coulter on the show.

COULTER: Oh yes, they called her in advance.

O'REILLY: Right. They called in advance. We're going to do this because we're getting a little — look, it's just like me and , Franken, that idiot. I played right into his hands when he had his book out. You know, they want to get in a fight with you.

COULTER: If I could just say, I sort of object to your description of this as if I lost a fight. I don't think they would have done it to anyone else. I don't think they would have called in on…

O'REILLY: Were you surprised that she called in?

COULTER: …your pal Al. If were on, they wouldn't have had the wife of someone he had made a nasty joke about call in. But still I am more of a man than any liberal is. So you know, I don't care.

(LAUGHTER)

O'REILLY: But did they tell you she was going to call in?

COULTER: As I was walking to sit down, right before, “She might call in.”

O'REILLY: All right. So they gave you a little big of a head's up.

COULTER: No, I think what was — I think that isn't so bad. What was a little weird was how she was allowed to talk uninterrupted for 45 minutes browbeating me. I felt like I was in kindergarten.

O'REILLY: Well, you got your shots in.

COULTER: Oh, no, no, no. Every time I thought it was my turn to respond, I get interrupted. "No, no, no, Elizabeth Edwards is still talking..."

She’s #2 on the WTA tour behind Belgium’s Justine Henin-Hardenne and is closing the gap. If she takes Wimbledon this year she could slide into the #1 slot depending on how Hardenne does.

Sorry, I already called dibs! LOL

Hey fagbreath, come out from behind your wife and face Ann like a man; you mouse!

Calling johnboy a fag is an insult to homosexuals.

And from the self-described "chick with a gun, and a mike" --TAMMY BRUCE -- at tammybruce.com:

Ann Coulter Answers the Edwards Slime

During the past few days it's amazing how the Edwards' suddenly decided to go after Ann Coulter. One has to ask, Why? Considering Ann isn't running for president, why are Edwardses so obsessed with her. The answer, of course, is money. Once an ambulance chaser, always an ambulance chaser.

Here's the deal: the 2nd quarter fund-raiser date is here. This is the point where candidates have to reveal how much money they've raised. This announcement can make or break a campaign. As a matter of fact, days before the Edwards attack on Ann, it was revealed that Edwards' fundraising for the 2nd quarter has plunged. Other people will draw conclusions, good or bad, on therelevancy of your campaign based on the money you have. Complaining about Coulter has been Edwards best fundraising vehicle, so they needed her again.

As a matter of fact, the night Elizabeth Edwards called into Hardball to sandbag Ann, the Edwards campaign dropped a fundraising email about the confrontation. It included a note from Elizabeth urging donations.

And they accuse Ann of 'lowering the debate' and cynicism. The Edwards, IMHO, are the sleaziest people in this campaign. Sleazier than even Hillary. We don't like Hillary's ideas, but at least she has some. Edwards is a homophobe who is now apparently using his cancer-striken wife with the hope that people will be less inclined to question her motives or confront her. Remember, cancer doesn't elevate or transform the moral foundation of a person, especially when they're as opportunist as the Edwardses.

Here's Ann's answer to the absurdity:

THAT WAS NO LADY — THAT WAS MY HUSBAND

They’re not pissed. They likely planned it over the weekend and expected a campaing boost like every other time Ann nailed him.

It was just poorly thought out this time & Ann Rox

This response to Edwards/Matthews is great. But Ann did NOT respond during the interview itself. Why not?

Why couldn’t she have simply said, “I was lampooning your HUSBAND’s use of the boy’s death, not the death itself. I read that John Kerry himself had a similar reaction to Mr. Edwards exploitation of the tragedy.”

Or “I was comparing the reaction to my silly remark to the total lack of reaction to Maher’s death-wish for Cheney.”

A simple, concise explanation is better than 5 minutes of additional name-calling. Ann could have done better.

Oh, gosh, NO! I wouldn't ever make jokes about someone who's so big they show up on radar... or who leaves footprints in concrete- dry concrete... or someone who's so big they have their own area code... who's so big they had to have their baby pictures taken by satellite... you mean, people who are so big others jog around them for exercise?

Jeez, why would I ever be such a non-PC, insensitive, unfeeling person? Maybe I should go take some PC lessons from a liberal, so I can learn how to be mentally deranged too! It's obviously worked out well for you.
