A Vast Right-Wing Cry of Treason. Coulter tells the unvarnished truth--and makes conservatives mad.

You forgot the PUKE alert.

Sam the Sham lost his Pharoahs, so he's now slinging arrows.

Doesn't she understand, they ask, that McCarthy wasn't an anti-Communist at all but a dangerous outrider who harmed a noble cause by defaming and giving ammunition to the left?

--------------------

The left always has ammunition, even if it must create it.

I know...I agree. How the hell do they know if she's a "hard-drinker"? I've seen the pic here on FR of her with a beer in her hand, but what is wrong with drinking a beer????? I've heard she smokes, but so what? Jeez, these people need to get a life!!!

[Thane_Banquo]

Whenever the nation is under attack, from within or without, liberals side with the enemy.

Yep, that's about the size of it. Christ said to love your enemy, not to be enamored with him. Liberals are enamored with their enemies, but hateful of their fellow countrymen.

I can't believe my girlfriend is a chain smoker.

I think I'm in love. LOL

Well I guess that's your loss, not hers. Seriously though, how does the author know she's a "hard-drinker"?? It seems to me to be the way of leftwing journalism nowadays when someone else writes something they don't like, slam their character first. They love to dish it out, but they can't take it.

What conseratives are "up in arms"? Horowits had a few critics but then he carries her articles on FrontPage Mag. Doesnt sound like he is all shook up about anything. You know, the people that write these things about Ann , most of them I have no Idea who they are and dont recognize their names. What's that tell me? They figure if they sling a little dirt it will get into the Liberal Media. Better that than not being paid attention to at all. IMHO

[Incorrigible]

Let's have a look at the "conservatives" the author purports are so angry with Ann:

David Horowitz - His picture is next to the definition of "Neo-con" in the dictionary.

Andrew Sullivan - One of those fiscal conservatives but lifestyle liberals.  Common in the UK and northeast US.

Dorothy Rabinowitz - A media commentator (and not necessarily critical of the hypocrisy) and an award winner from Criminal Defense Lawyers for goodness sake!

 

Good grief.  I'm glad I'm on Ann's side!

 

[SunStar]

Consider her notorious comment, following 9/11, that the solution to radical Islamists was for the United States to "invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity."

For the 500th time, that was a JOKE! "Slander" is right.

[A_perfect_lady]

Elizabeth Dilling's Red Network, Fred C. Schwarz's You Can Trust the Communists (To Be Communists), and-- a personal favorite--John A. Stormer's None Dare Call It Treason.

Why thank you, Sam, for giving me my Christmas break reading list! Now, what was the rest of that? Blah blah blah? Alrighty, then, cheers! ;^)

[vetvetdoug]

a rail thin, chain smoking, hard drinking, big eyed leggy blonde who winkingly serves up X rated ideological smut on liberals...
Is there something wrong with that? Sounds like a near perfect woman to me....

[Intolerant in NJ]

Sam Tananhaus - isn't he the guy who set out to write a book defending Alger Hiss and ended up confirming that Hiss was a spy and defending Whitaker Chambers? - I think his real problem is that Coulter said some things that made sense to him and he's scared to death he'll eventually be convinced that McCarthy was really a great American.......

[hocndoc]

More than a joke, Ann's comments were a twist on the clearly expressed intentions of the backers of the 9-11 killers.
