Maybe you're just not saying anything interesting enough to reply to? And Ann Coulter is way more than 10% wrong. In UK terms, she sits further right than the BNP, our fringe nationalistic extremist party. A country with people like Coulter in charge would be a fascist hell hole.Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Wow, I did not realize that the UK was so far left at this point to have an opinion like this.

jakee 1,596 #56 October 15, 2007 Exactly. People like Coulter are not in charge of the US. She is far more radical than even the current US administration on pretty much every single issue, and a country that she was in charge of would become a fascist hell hole with global nuclear armageddon probably not too far behind. So, what the fuck are you talking about?Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCclimber 0 #57 October 15, 2007 Quote> Let's be honest here. If the left could come up with someone who had >her quick wit and biting humor . . . The left has Al Franken who is certainly funnier than she is, judging by how much money he's made as a comedian (which is really the only objective comparison possible) How about book sales? TV appearances (as a pundit)? He did write the screenplay for Stuart Saves His Family. It failed to gross $1 million at the box office. How are the ratings for his radio program?

Where do you get this? How many of her books have you read? Are you basing this on anything more than the emotional handgrenades she lobs out there every time she's got a new book to promote?

No, she is not. She is much in line with the current administration. She is not shackled by political correctness, however. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In any case, it's somewhat silly to argue that the right's angry bile-spouting extremist is better/worse than the left's angry bile-spouting extremist. It's like arguing which football team mascot could beat up the other - and thinking that means something. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She is not shackled by political correctness, however. She advocates doing things that the administration is not "allowed" to do. That's why I originally said that she is further to the right than administration policy. Maybe if they weren't somewhat constrained by the constitution then they would behave more in the way that the Coulter woman would like, but thats always going to be hypothetical.Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Maybe you're just not saying anything interesting enough to reply to? You can say a lot of things about my posts, but you can't realistically say they aren't interesting. Actually, I was on two newsgroups at the same time, with similar subjects, and that is where that question was meant to be posted, not here. By the time I realized, it was past the point of deleting. By the way, the answer I got there was quite different, and it was much more flattering, as expected.Roll Tide Roll Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johndh1 0 #69 October 15, 2007 I had corrected that already, probably about the same instant you so cleverly jumped on it. Also, go back and read my post - I didn't say you did it, I said it was done earlier.

She (like all Christians) believes themselves to be of the "perfect" or "one true" faith. They may not believe themselves to be perfect, but do believe what they follow is perfect.

This would fall into the category of "delusional." But...it's all just semantics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
