I didn't see a lot of vitriol directed towards the advertisers and stations that pulled politically incorrect when Bill Maher called the Clinton administration "cowards"...but I've seen a LOT of anger directed towards NR for pulling Coulter.

Personally, I thought Coulter's statements were a lot more offensive.

Er...don't you think you are really stretching it to say Maher was refering to the "Clinton administration as cowards"? That would really be news!!! He was refering to "the military".

"Personally, I thought Coulter's statements were a lot more offensive."

And you probably don't even know what that says about you "Personally."

Heaven forbid that anyone should ever say anything that someone would consider offensive. Conservatives are required never to say anthing that would offend a Liberal. Of course Liberals can say anything they want, even if it is offensive, because their cause is so worthy that the means do not have to justify the ends.

Controlling speech is one of the main weapons of the Left. If the words cannot be spoken, then the ideas they express cannot be thought.

I have observed all of the political correct jargon that I can stomach. If someone is offended, so be it. I think Anne's comment about the girlly-boys at National Review says it all.
