that, incidentally, is just the kind of cheap, liberal shot that Coulter would expect from a limp-wristed, European, communist rag like this one, as we shall soon discover Freedland finally recognizes his organisation.

[IronJack]

I find it interesting that this left-wing void finds it necessary to consume 6,000 words telling us how wrong Ann Coulter is. One more thing the Right has going for it is that its pundits tend to be more succinct. Of course, the Left makes a much larger target.

[lib-r-teri-ann]

Coulter reminds me, in her intensity and polemic, of a blonde 21st century Republican Ayn Rand. Brilliant, scathing and a weapon of mass destruction in dealing with the liberal enemy. The only way this could get any better is Ayn Rand had been born half a century later and was with us today. My God, the two would be the manliest men in the American intellectual pantheon.

You can hurt your eyes and read to the bottom, but that line is a show stopper. Alterman? Hahahahahahahaha!

What will the deranged leftist do when the OKC bombing is finally nailed on Islamics?

0% substance

100% whine

[Fester Chugabrew]

How sweet it is to read so much hand-wringing over a girl who can reduce liberals to a tiny, stinking kernel in one sentence.

[CommandoFrank]

When you see the left bitching like this, you know they're hurting.

Hey, the truth hurts...

(I'll be back later today to view the mandatory pictures that surely will be posted.)

[Abogado]

Anyone notice that this diatribe was all ad homonym? Not one factual basis for the author's attack.

[Tribune7]

Jonathan Freedland confronts her and recognises a truth about the United States today: Bush isn't an aberration and Coulter expresses what many Americans think.

N.S. Sherlock.

Eric Alterman, one of the sharpest writers on the American left,

That's true. And that says a lot. :-)

Man, this is messed up. He supposedly has an interview with the lady, and yet most of the article consists of published quotes by and about her.

It goes on and on and on, and one is still left with the impression that he didn't really talk to her. The only clue that a face-to-face interview really took place is the description of her cowboy boots. And for all I know, that's something he made up...

[Just mythoughts]

So Ann has a book coming out in June as well. A little competition for MZ. Hillary.

Go Ann Go!

[Publius6961]

Jonathan who?
Jonathan where?

[The Great Satan]

Let me be the first.

[Just mythoughts]

I think without being "able" to say it, this stiff-necked Brit is smitten with Ann.


He sounds like he is trying so hard to make sure anyone who saw them together that he wasn't goo-goo over her.

[Publius6961]

As she wrote in a now-notorious column that appeared on September 13 2001: "We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity."

Satire and self-parody no longer exist in the old country?

Hmmmmmm.
I do notice that quoting out of context is alive and well...

Oh well, I do know that when your target audience is the uneducated and the ignorant, this plays very well.

[Rodney King]

She sounds off about the Middle East plenty, but has never been there. She does the same about Islam, mocking those who describe it as a religion of peace. What is the source of her wisdom? It turns out she "had a Muslim boyfriend for a while".

The source of her wisdom is that Islam advocates violence all over the world. You don't have to travel to the middle east to know that.

[M Kehoe]

Freedland doesn't get all of his facts straight, but that's not the point. The point is that Ms. Coulter irritates the liberals so much their heads are about to explode. This article is anecdotal evidence.

Whether it's America's shift to the right or the rise and rise of America's motor-mouth, talk-show culture, or the popular rebellion against establishment media or the emergence of a new Republican babe-ocracy, Ann Coulter represents it all.

Speaking of motormouths...

The left had a death-grip on this technique for about a generation and a half:
Response by filibuster ---- they could ignore the question, change the subject and attack their talking points target of the day by the simple expedient of running off at the mouth sans breath until time is up.
Very very effective.

Their realization that the opposition can use the technique just as well, and just as effectively, has reduced them to quivering jelly, cowering in the dark corner sucking their thumbs.

He he he he...
It's a win-win scenario now.
Having a "mute" button on interview shows now will force these losers to address issues and actually to respond to questions that they would rather duck.

I love it!!

[cubreporter]

Faced with a TV anchor, she doesn't sit still or polite. She interrupts constantly, talking over her hosts, denying them the chance to butt into her own stream of argument. Some are reduced to blubbering jelly


May I say to Mr. Freeland, she does NOT interrupt...she just takes her turn to respond and MUST speak over the likes of some of the hosts or opponents as they try to cut her off. She will not have that. They are not messing with an amateur here.
Ann Coulter is brilliant, funny, and a very attractive young woman who knows of whom and what she speaks. So, when someone tries to cut her off she is gonna stand her ground and say what she wants to say. She's no fool. She's fantastic and her enemies know it.

Guns are our friends. God made man and woman; Colonel Colt made them equal

You really got love this girl. I guess that's why the stalker may not bother her as much as it would, say, Maureen Dowd.
