i agree. we are tougher if you try to rob us but when it comes to playing politics, well, we're just too nice. Applause for coulter. showing one more way the left has a double standard.
I agree, Ann is the best! In my fantasies I'm just like her, laying liberals low with my rapier-sharp wit.
Well said!
You're right in this regard. There is nothing wrong with getting vicious in dealing with overseas enemies, and labeling in any way that helps matters is fine by me. But as regards domestic Leftists, vicious is lost; no way to go here. See my earlier post about directness and unapologia.
Excellent post!!!!!
Call a spade a spade, a faggot a faggot, and a RINO a RINO.
For YEARS, the liberal media, in concert with WIMP "moderate" and liberal FAUX Republican RINOs, have been telling the American people that WE don't like "partisonship", and the rough and tumble of political discourse.
This is TOTAL B.S.
We CONSERVATIVES, and probably most Republicans with any sense at all, want to hear and speak the TRUTH...
No matter HOW much that truth hurts.
The liberal media, and their ilk, also try to make us (through carefully crafted articles and push polls) THINK we need to vote for a liberal RINO to win.
More B.S.
We can make up our own minds through Conservative thought and logic. We don't need a bunch of RINO-loving, koolaid-drinking dolts of ANY political stripe (liberal demonRAT OR liberal "Republicans") telling us what to "think" or FEEL about a certain candidate.
The unvarnished TRUTH, in the form of RINO-rudy's words and actions in print, and in video clips, is out there for all who care to see it.
We don't need a northeastern, inner-city, gun-grabbing, abortion-supporting, jack-booted Police/Nanny-State liberal RINO running for REPUBLICAN President of the United States...
PERIOD.
Agreed. Who's going to throw the first punch?!
I do think the right needs to get more vicious. Back in the days of the Clintons an' dat ol' James Cawville, I thought we needed someone who is unafraid to hit below the belt. So far, the only one with the cojones to do so has turned out to be a scrawny blonde female. Keep on keepin' on, Ann!
We've been the victim of this rhetoric for so long, we don't even see how damaging it really is. Half the Republicans I hear spend their time apologizing for their own values instead of attacking the socialists on the other side of the aisle. Reagan was polite, gentlemanly, funny, but he had a hard-as-steel edge when he talked about Communism and taxation--and woe to anyone who got in his way. We need more Pattons of the politcal arena; it's sad that Anne is the only one who can call a Fag a Fag.
The thing is, everyone knows dems are despicable low lifes. Nobody expects anything from the other than low class comments that are quite beyond the pale.
You're making my case. Reagan was unapologetic, and direct, and could be witty. Ann is, in my view, far wittier, plus her demeanor in general is rascally (a word?). Reagan didn't need to get vicious with the Left, and neither does anyone else. But it is important for conservatives to become more direct - and as many have been saying in this post, call it as they see it.
I'm not a violent person, but if I ever see him, I would like to kick the s--- out of Bill Maher if I ever meet him. He is the bigger danger to this country than any terrorist could ever be. As much as I like Soprano's, I cancelled HBO because of him.
Shall we ask the Roe v Wade victims if we should be vicious or not?
Shall we ask the victims of 9/11 if we should be vicious or not.
Shall we ask the victims of crime, who couldn't defend themselves, if we should be vicious or not?
It's da*n time we stopped just shaking our heads and muttering, and took this country back. Back to where our forefathers fought so hard to bring it.
This is the attitude that the left knows will be taken by conservatives and spit on us. We need to take on a new attitude like inFIGHT CLUB!AND THAT MIGHT GET THEIR ATTENTION
Why hasn't Edwards apologized to Christians for the evil things his atheist supporters had said about them?!
His staffers maligned a religion...whereas Coulter merely poked fun at his 'metrosexuality' and the runaway political correctness in this country.
If domestic viciousness would in any way promote positively any of the causes you just listed, then I would sign up. But I don't see viciousness helping, and you probably don't either. On the other hand, I have no problem if someone should punch out Maher in an elevator somewhere. Jack Bauer?
Well I'll tell you what, you get down on that level and let me know what you've "won"
I don't see how being aggressively vicious like Coulter really helps.
***
Sorry, but I think people are becoming "soft" if they think calling someone a faggot (which, incidentally, Coulter did not really do) is "vicious." Un-PC, perhaps. Childish, ok. But vicious? Come on. If Coulter had said she would not be surprised to see Edwards in the baths of San Francisco, that might come closer, but for vicious you have call people Hitler, murderer, or someone who should have been assassinated. Coulter did none of these things. Who did??
Maybe....the battle against the crazy left.
