May I say something about Ann Coulter? She is a half-wit, a termagant, a dimwit, a blowhard, a worthless silicone nothing, physically ugly and could be likened to Eva Braun, who was Hitler's mistress. As it happens, these are all descriptions or characterizations Coulter uses for others in her book, "Slander." It ought to be called "Mirror."

Ah, but I am one of the people she skewers -- maybe one of the "pathetic little parakeet males" who are always liberals. (For some reason, Coulter has a need to question the manliness of liberals; against all evidence, she even refers to Bill Clinton as "IMPOTUS.") And yet, some of what she writes about me is true. I have not always been wise (pp. 16, 60-61,128,149,185) and at times I have strayed from liberal orthodoxy (pp. apparently edited from the manuscript). And here we have the crux of Little Dick's complaint: Ann dissed him!
FYI, Dick, you have RARELY been "wise."

All things considered, I'd much rather bump into Ann in the dark than this hirsute, yellow-toothed, middle-aged, paunchy Liberal hack.

It took a whopping 60 replies in a thread dealing with Coulter for someone to finally post her pic.........
I do believe that a new record for longevity has been established.
It's troublesome that it only took a mere 14 replies for DICK to have his pathetic, UGLY mug plastered on the same thread.

I'm waiting for the NY Times to announce their decision to stop publishing the best seller lists. You know this just kills them...

Being conservative is like being criminally insane: You can't be held accountable...Cohen is becoming unhinged by all this, and this statement above reveals his depth of despair.
Coulter has developed a wonderful strategy to drive liberals mad as Hatters: e.g., "Peace for Thee and Me. Confusion to our enemies. She's a no-holds-barred, gutter-street fighter. With her gloves off, the proper politically-correct liberal lexicon is no match for her common-sensed ruthlessness.
A conspicuous liberal socialist, Cohen has just pubically decried the favorite tactic of the left: name-calling (ad-hominum for you purists).
The beauty of it all is that Coulter was the agent-provocateur that compelled Cohen to rennounce the tactics of his own side.
She's a street-fighter, for sure. But it's clear she knows something about the subtleties of Judo.

If I'd known we were going for some kind of record, I would have held off! Darn! Still, after you put up that picture of Cohen, I think it only fair to Ms. Coulter that we compare and contrast. You provoked me. : )

The side-by-side is a bit of a slam dunk, is it not?
He really, really should not have called her ugly.
To: DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet
I guess we can include Richard Cohen out of that huge shift to the GOP we hear so much about.
To: Pokey78
A liberal like Richard Cohen can write an entire column about Ann's best-selling book without saying a single word to refute it. Which only proves what she's written all along: as far as liberals are concerned there's no debate in this country. And Cohen like the rest of them is an empty suit.

"sure has his undies in a bunch"
ROTFLOL - my thoughts exactly! He's probably just mad because he didn't write the book!!

"he does what every liberal does - he insults and slanders her (and by doing so, proves her point completely)"
This is such a great statement.

He's just jealous cause he works for a paper people refuse to use to wrap fish in or even use to scoop poop when they walk their dogs.
Of course his books are usually sold in the toilet paper section of the supermarket in rolls and he can't stand the fact that someone else is making money and has a real job.

"And Cohen like the rest of them is an empty suit"
Yes, and isn't it interesting that one of the first statements the liberals ever made about Bush was - "he's an empty suit".
A key to figuring out the liberals is to realize they always call other people the names which really explain who they are. Thus, the empty suited people call others - an empty suit. I see it over and over. If we want to know what they're up to, all we have to do is listen - because they will be accusing the conservatives of doing it!!

Contentious Objector, it is a play on words NOT a refrence to the Vietnam War!
