I wouldn't have mentioned Loughner's far-left world view immediately after a tragedy like this, but now that liberals have opened the door by blaming Loughner's politics, they better brace themselves.Read the rest at AnnCoulter.Com
And when I say "brace themselves," I don't mean they need to actually strap themselves into a brace. That's a metaphor, Chris.
“Ann Coulter: LIBERALS SEEK BAN ON METAPHORS”
While exempting their own, of course.
Sarah Palin, for example, had a chart of congressional districts being targeted by Republicans. So did the Democratic Leadership Committee. Indeed, Democratic consultant Bob Beckel went on Fox News and said he invented the bull's-eye maps.No wonder they are so mad.
Similarly, every time liberals produce an example of military lingo from a Republican -- "we're going to target this district" -- Republicans produce five more from the Democrats.
They started it with actual targets--those things that you shoot at--Palin used surveyors symbols, and their "targeting" helped the Republicans.
Who'd thunk it?
Great piece. Even better closing line
OK candidates, stop with the metaphors and get back to the war room....
oh right.
I know for a fact that the killer did watch and was influenced by TV. They just checked his DVR, and he had MSNBC recorded every night, from 5PM to 11PM.
Liberals hate “labels”...except when they use them.
Liberals are like little children. They believe they should be allowed to do things but no one else.
Liberals had better ban the entire English language. Its loaded with words that can drive people to kill.
Oops! I need JimRob to ban me cause under the Democrats’ regime, I have just handed someone a notion to go out and kill someone!
If we don’t all die laughing first from liberal stupidity!
LibTURDS hate the 1st Amendment and the Truth. Lex Luthor was a NUT that they created.
In North Korea, one can only [legally] say nice things about the Great Leaders. How’s that working out for them?
It’s way past time fot Liberals to retreat from their usual entrenched positions and arm them themselves with the truth, instead. Oh, wait...
Ann hits the nail on the head!
Oh, wait, can't say that.
How about... Ann encourages the nail with prudent force, thoughtfully applied, and we all join her in wishing the nail well in its new position.

Am I allowed to say that?
SIMPLY HYPOCRITICAL
Tune: "Simply Irresistible"
They say we're vitriolical
And deeply diabolical
They say that we're so horrible
Our hate speech is deplorable
See them rant, see them rage
Anger fills every page
But the hate they detect
Is a trait they project
They like to condemn the Right
But now I find they're
Simply hypocritical
Simply hypocritical
They say when we're rhetorical
It can't be metaphorical
The language must be literal
Unless it's by a liberal
They can wish Bush would die
Or hang Palin on high
With no sin of their own
They can cast the first stone
They like to condemn the Right
But now I find they're
Simply hypocritical
Simply hypocritical
(Simply hypocritical) They're so pure, there's no imagery that's violent
(Simply hypocritical) They're so sure there's no hatred of their own
It's unbelievable, the story that they spread
They say we're guilty, that the blood is on our head
But Beck and Limbaugh now, they're wishing they were dead
They like to fight the Right
Now I find they're
Simply hypocritical
They're so pure, there's no imagery that's violent
(Simply hypocritical) They're so sure there's no hatred of their own
Hypocrisy on overkill
The word is pharisaical
The evidence is plentiful
Their posturing is Pittiful
See them rant, see them rage
Anger fills every page
But the hate they detect
Is a trait they project
They like to condemn the Right
But now I find they're
Simply hypocritical
They're so pure, there's no imagery that's violent
(Simply hypocritical) They're so sure there's no hatred of their own
(Simply hypocritical) They're so pure, there's no imagery that's violent
(Simply hypocritical) They're so sure there's no hatred of their own
Simply hypocritical
When puns are outlawed, only outlaws will have puns.
Where DID we get the word "campaign"?
Fantastic article! One of her best. The observation that this is a "ban on metaphors" could only have been written by a writer.
My favorite constitutional attorney. Great sense of humor.
Ann will definitely catch some flak for this one. Oh, wait. I shouldn’t use the word “flak.” My most sincere apologies to Chris Matthews.
I’ve been eagerly awaiting Coulter’s column on this. I knew she’d take no prisoners. (Er, is that a metaphor or not?).
Ann has done it again.Superb and straight for the throat...oooppps methaphor.LOL
