Column: Coulter makes a mockery of politics
Collegiate Times ^ | July 5, 2007 | Peebles Squire

Posted on 07/05/2007 11:50:07 AM PDT by pissant

As the race for the 2008 Presidential election gains more and more ground each day, we find ourselves increasingly subjected to literal up-to-the-second coverage of the U.S. political arena. More often than desired, this barrage of “news” ends up to be nothing more than a coagulation of useless facts and figures accompanied by an endless stream of insults directed at your candidate of choice. Interviews are about as educational as watching 12 year olds argue about whose dad is cooler, normally consisting of three or more grown, educated men simultaneously trying to prove the others wrong by talking as loud as possible. Liberal bias or conservative bias, CNN or Fox News – mass media exists only to cater to those brave souls willing to aim low enough to attack the opposing individual’s very character. This type of high-brow, mature political dialogue has been an issue of especially high contention in recent presidential elections, and 2008 is no exception.

I do my best to maintain reasonable expectations for the public figures in my country. I assume most of them are remotely intelligent, and truly capable of listening if they’d only shut their mouths on occasion. I like to think that the pundits I see on television are reasonable people on the inside, and that I might even agree with some of their takes on many important issues.

However, there is one person in particular that serves as a towering exception to the rule: a cruel, heartless, close-minded individual who cannot and will never serve any good to humankind. I am, of course, talking about super-pundit and author Ann Coulter.

Since the recent execution of Saddam Hussein in 2006, Coulter is believed to be the most feared and last precursor to the coming of the Anti-Christ. Preaching a message of intolerance and hatred, Coulter chooses to prey on any group promoting any sort of equality, fairness, or compromise by making direct, personal attacks at her opponent. Coulter relies on her wit and her ability to interrupt others to convey her message, usually consisting of nothing more than a pile of ideological garbage. A staunch fascist, Coulter promotes many of the same ideas as her late male colleagues, including torture, imperialism, racism, intolerance of homosexuals, and a general hatred for any follower of Islam. Her loud mouth and ruthless attitude immediately propelled her to the summit of the media mountain, where she sits as the queen of the neoconservative movement.

Coulter has promoted the escalation of warfare in the Middle East, going so far as to encourage a takeover of the entire region and conversion of its people to Christianity. She has continually encouraged racial profiling and discrimination based on sexuality. In her most recent book, “Godless,” Coulter attacks four women widowed after 9/11, saying, “I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much.” She recently referred to John Edwards as a “f*****” and remains proud of it, despite pleas from Edwards to clean up her language and stick to the issues. Shameless and cold-blooded, Coulter’s purse has gotten fat as a direct result of her message of intolerance.

On a self-imposed mission from God, Coulter sees fit to usher out the rather important, constitutionally granted freedom from persecution based on race, religion, or cultural background and replace it with a theocracy bent on converting the entire world to Christianity and bombing anyone who disagrees. She claims to be waging a war on “liberals,” the umbrella term for anyone who disagrees with her ideology. The definition of Coulter’s “liberal” most closely resembles what a sane person would call a reasonable, pragmatic, progressive individual. You do not have to be liberal to be a “liberal,” the only requirement is that you disagree with any of the various moral wrongdoings Coulter actively endorses. As fundamentalist as any Ayatollah, Coulter may serve to be a greater threat to the American way of life than any terrorist. Monotonously divisive and inflammatory, “Ms. Right” is slowly eroding any remaining remnants of the motto, “United We Stand.”

Sounds like Peebles is jealous

What do you want to bet Peebles wears baggy shirts to hide her flabby malformed udders?

Since when has politics been a respectable profession, and anything other than ridiculousness?

Yea, but I’m pretty sure Ann wasn’t kidding.

You are right; she was expressing her anger and disgust at (1) the terrorists who had just murdered one of her best friends, and (2) the foul loathesome hate-filled jihadi supporters that danced in the streets in celebration of that cowardly and despicable act of terrorism.

Of these losers celebrating the death of her friend, Ann said: "We should bomb their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity."

Note that even in her anger Ann stopped short of calling for the massacre of the idiots dancing in the streets but rather called for the destruction only of the institutions and leaders that support terrorist attacks on our country, and demonstrated enough compassion and concern for the souls of the celebrants to advocate showing them the truth and sharing the mercy and grace of Jesus Christ with them.

It’s writers like this that make Ann Coulter necessary.The left tries to win debate by calling their opponents deniers or haters,rather than debate the issues.They dare people to contradict their bizzare ideas,and then go running to mommy when they’re taken up on it.

“He wants the present war called ‘War on Terrorists’, a general term, including the IRA and Basque Separatists. (Muslims aren’t involved, of course.)”

No, I give him credit for being brave enough to say this, for he has a valid point. No one “brand” of terrorism is better or worse than anaother.

The distinction that needs to be made, however, is that when you talk about the IRA or ETA, the underlying motivation for their terrorism is, in my opinion, easily removed. Political solutions to the problems of English occupation of Northern Ireland,or the question of Basque autonomy within a greater Spain, are probably workable, and from my point of view, forseeable. The point being that compromise is possible.

When people say “fix the political situation and the terrorism goes away” in regards to these two circumstances, they are probably right. But this formula does not work when it comes to Islamic terrorism.

Vis-a-vis Islam and the Islamic-controlled state, no compromise, of any sort, is possible. Regradless of whether the state is democratic,autocratic, theocratic, the underlying DUTY of all Muslims is to God first and the state second, and in this case, God has commanded that those who fail to bend knee to Allah must be enslaved or die. This would still be the case even if we built the most efficient, democratic utopia of all times on Middle Eastern soil.

The problem is not politics, it is religion, and worse, a religion which has permeated every nook and cranny of the host culture. You cannot fight the one and not deal with the other, and fortunately for us, the fall of one will automatically bring about the fall of the other. The issue is that the powers that be do not recongize that omlettes cannot be made without breaking eggs, and they instead opt for what appears to be the clever and elegant solution, which is often far too complex to actually achieve.

Whatever happened to “Keep It Simple Stupid”?

It does indeed say it all because it shows us that the left are the true name callers.
The activities of the Nazi’s and the practice of fascism is a leftist ideology.

Nazi = Nationalist Socialist Workers Party

Fascism = A philosophy or system of government that is marked by stringent social and economic control, a strong, centralized government usually headed by a dictator.
(See tagline for examples)

They especially don’t like it when a conservative refuses to be shouted down by a liberal guest/host on any of the TV talk shows. I no longer watch them because it reminds me of WWF Smackdown.

Freak 1 “Yeah I hate those bastards, by the way you are catching my shift at Starbucks so I can make the protest”

Freak 2 “No dude I’m goin’”

Freak 1 “Awe sh*t you fascist bastard!”

Customer “Excuse me, I would like a latte”

“Peebles Squire”??? Is that some college kid’s pen name? The funny part is that there’s an ad for Ann’s column under this punk’s rant.

"As fundamentalist as any Ayatollah, Coulter may serve to be a greater threat to the American way of life than any terrorist."

"Coulter is believed to be the most feared and last precursor to the coming of the Anti-Christ"

"a cruel, heartless, close-minded individual who cannot and will never serve any good to humankind. I am, of course, talking about super-pundit and author Ann Coulter"

"Shameless and cold-blooded, Coulter’s purse has gotten fat as a direct result of her message of intolerance."

Hmmm...

It's not that I had any interest in the issue; but I believe I now know how the Perverted Sexual Deviant, aka "Peebles Squire," uses his computer keyboard to get sexual satisfaction.

While I'm offended by "Peebles'" treatment of Ann, I know that somewhere there is an 8 year old girl that has been spared the rape and murder that "Peeby" would otherwise have found necessary.
