THE LATEST STUPID QUOTE FROM ANN COULTER


From an appearence in Johns Hopkins University Oct. 9 in an attempt to defend racial profiling:

"In the past twenty years, one-hundred percent of terrorist attacks against this country have been by Muslim extremists, Naturally, the democrats won't let us look for Muslim extremists. When there is a one-hundred percent chance that the next terrorist attack will be made by a Muslim extremist, it's no longer a profile, it's a description of the suspect."

Timothy McVeigh, The Unabomber, Eric Rudolph - Muslim extremists Ann? You are a stupid racists moron aren't you Ann.

The "Third Kind" wants to establish a self-regulating classless society on planet earth. I have had radio encounters with two Republican members of the "Third Kind," Ann Coulter (author of the best seller Slander) and David Horowitz (author of Empire and Revolution and How to Beat the Democrats and Other Subversive Ideas).

People such as Coulter and Horowitz do not want to talk about the very real existence of the "Third Kind" nor do they want you to know what is really taking place in this Republic and the world.

The "Third Kind" is actually the Radical Capitalist Class (RCC). The
Radical Capitalist Class is a group of people that are trying desperately to spread a very specific American/British Capitalism based on Fabian Socialism to encompass the globe.

Are Republicans Becoming the “Hypocrisy Party”
Exclusive commentary by Daniel Borchers Oct 16, 2003

Some conservatives have shed scruples and jettisoned principles to rush to Limbaugh’s defense. The wagons circling around one of our own only serve as targets for legitimate charges of hypocrisy and double-standards. Conservative credibility – already damaged by conservative support for liberal Arnold Schwarzenegger – can only further erode in the unscrupulous defense of admittedly illegal behavior by their premiere talk radio guru (“a great spokesman for conservatives” – Cal Thomas).

Moral and Legal Irrelevancies?

Author and columnist Steve Chapman is one of the few conservative voices critical of Arnold’s Republican candidacy, one of the few to hold conservatives accountable for unprincipled positions:
“At best, the evidence indicates that Schwarzenegger has a habit of sexual battery. This goes beyond the behavior that unleashed a scandal on Bill Clinton. So consider their double standard. When Clinton did with Monica, conservatives thought it was morally repugnant. They also thought it disqualified him from remaining in office. Yet they’re happy to have as governor of California someone who, by his own admission, has forced himself on unwilling women. Their new darling is a more aggressive sexual predator than the president they tried to remove from office. Morality? Law? They’ll leave it to liberals to fret about such irrelevancies. But if the charges persist and multiply, I predict conservatives will find a way to address Arnold’s behavior: They’ll blame it on Clinton.” – Steve Chapman, “Double Standards,” 10/9/03
Now this latest Limbaugh scandal – not connected with a faux Republican like Arnold but involving a genuine conservative and cultural icon – has conservatives scrambling for excuses, spinning the truth.

Before continuing, let’s talk turkey – cold turkey. Rush Limbaugh is addicted to narcotics and allegedly illegally obtained those narcotics for many years. Conservative radio talk show host Ken Hamblin and liberal television host Geraldo Rivera find agreement on this issue: Limbaugh is a “junkie.”

Some liberals do delight in Limbaugh’s moral failings while some conservatives refuse to even acknowledge the immorality of Limbaugh’s misconduct. Conservative skepticism of liberal criticism is natural, but in a very real sense it does not matter what the critics’ motives are – truth is truth. Rush Limbaugh has admitted long-term prescription drug abuse. Of greater concern than those who use morality for partisan convenience are those who “know better” but only pay lip service to their purported principles. When it matters, where do you stand?

Parsing Principle and the Law

Conservatives rightly ridiculed Bill Clinton’s infamous parsing of the English language, with his assertions that he “never inhaled” or that it depends on the meaning of “is.” Now conservatives emulate that Clintonian paradigm, shamelessly, without even paying homage to their own principles.

With Rush Limbaugh’s admission of prescription drug abuse, some conservatives unabashedly defend him. Rationalizations ran rampant tonight on MSNBC’s Scarborough Country (10/10/03), that discussion being emblematic of the debate within the larger conservative community. Guests included Court TV co-anchor Lisa Bloom, conservative author Ann Coulter, and conservative talk radio host Neal Boortz.


Those rationalizations for absolving Limbaugh of guilt included:
Rush Limbaugh is a brilliant commentator. “I listen to Rush Limbaugh not because, hey, it’s time for my daily dose of morality. I listen to Rush Limbaugh because of his brilliance and his, what I believe to be, just cutting-edge, insightful commentary on what’s going on in politics today.” (Boortz)


Rush Limbaugh is the beloved father of talk radio. “Look at what Rush Limbaugh has accomplished. We just take talk radio for granted now. … Rush Limbaugh pioneered something that was entirely new.” (Coulter)


Rush Limbaugh is a conservative. “I want to talk a little bit about Rush Limbaugh as an institution. … When I first got this job on MSNBC [when asked] what’s the epicenter of the American conservative movement? I said Rush Limbaugh … he’s the bedrock of American conservatism right now.” (Scarborough)


Rush Limbaugh was experiencing back pain. “acting like this guy was shooting up heroin or even, you know, smoking pot, smoking crack, drinking vodka for kicks, I mean, he had back pain the pain medication he was taking is incredibly addictive. … The pain medication he was taking is incredibly addictive. They spent $100 million a year fighting off addiction charges.” (Coulter)


Rush Limbaugh’s remarks about jailing drug offenders is ancient history. “Lisa Bloom, just to put it in proper perspective, what year did Rush Limbaugh make that comment? … When Rush Limbaugh made that statement, it was back in 1995, near the end of the crack epidemic that was ravaging American neighborhood.” (Scarborough)


No one is perfect like Jesus. “Conservatives aren’t claiming to be Jesus Christ. We do have flaws. … unless you are Jesus Christ and you have no flaws, then you can support punishing drug addicts while simultaneously having a flaw of being a drug addict.” (Coulter)


It was just prescription drugs. “There’s a big difference between prescription drug abuse like this and an addiction to heroin.” (Boortz)


Rush Limbaugh should be praised for doing so well while on drugs. “If this is what he’s like on painkillers, imagine when he’s off them. … Like I say, it is amazing that he can be as entertaining, as funny as he is, and all of this while addicted to painkillers. Whoa. Set him loose once he’s gone through detox.” (Coulter)
The host of Country, Joe Scarborough, soft-pedaled the narcotics abuse by repeatedly saying that he’s “addicted to prescription drugs.” Neal Boortz even attacked and maligned Lisa Bloom, claiming she delighted in Rush’s addiction (check the tape – no delight is evident) merely because she addressed the reality of drug laws and their applicability to Limbaugh.

Ann Coulter, notorious for her condemnation of liberal compassion and liberal support for rehabilitation programs, was indignant and apoplectic that anyone could see anything wrong with Rush’s behavior. Strikingly, Coulter has a history of stentorian opposition to the legalization of marijuana and its use for medicinal (pain-killing) purposes.

Coulter’s final, strongest defense of Limbaugh was “Look, if my mother committed murder, I wouldn’t want her to go to jail. … I don’t want murder laws applied to my friends.” By Coulter’s logic and using her criteria no one would ever go to jail for anything! (A novel budget balancing concept.)

Conservatism Abandoned by “Conservatives” What a spectacle!

Rule of law, law-and-order, tough-on-drugs conservatives now plead for leniency – no, for pardon – for one of their own. They want to absolve Rush Limbaugh of any responsibility for behavior he himself assumes full responsibility for. The criteria is now identity, not behavior.

In defending Limbaugh – for purely partisan purposes (they even admit their partisanship) – they besmirch and belie the nobility, dignity and courage which their putative hero, Rush Limbaugh, exhibits.These “conservatives” are no friends of Conservatism.

Brainless Blond Bimbo Blasts Big Limbo Mumbo Jumbo Detractors
Annthrax predictably blames Clinton and Ted Kennedy for double standard.

After years of the mainstream media assuring us that Rush was a has-been, a nobody, yesterday's news -- the Rush painkiller story was front-page news last week. The airwaves and print media were on red alert with Rush's admission that, after an unsuccessful spinal operation a few years ago, he became addicted to powerful prescription painkillers.

The nasty gash starts with a lie "mainstream media assuring us that Rush was a has-been, a nobody, yesterday's news " revealed by the fact that Limbo was on ESPN and had a 285million dollar radio contract, and the fascist slut dissembles from there into a nearly incoherent rant about Kennedy and Clinton including the lame excuse that Mumbo Jumbo required drug for his golfing pain. Recommended reading after 10 Oxycontins and a bottle of grain alcohol.

Ann Coulter, notorious for her condemnation of liberal compassion and liberal support for rehabilitation programs, was indignant and apoplectic that anyone could see anything wrong with Rush’s behavior. Strikingly, Coulter has a history of stentorian opposition to the legalization of marijuana and its use for medicinal (pain-killing) purposes.

Coulter’s final, strongest defense of Limbaugh was “Look, if my mother committed murder, I wouldn’t want her to go to jail. … I don’t want murder laws applied to my friends.” By Coulter’s logic and using her criteria no one would ever go to jail for anything! (A novel budget balancing concept.)

These “conservatives” are no friends of Conservatism.

In a recent interview with Al Franken conducted by Edward Nawotka for Publisher's Weekly, after suggesting that some readers might want Franken to run for president, the interviewer proceeded to ask Franken hardball questions such as:

— "It's got to be a little grating to see your book on the same New York Times best-seller list as the Ann Coulter book."

— "You fact-checked Ann Coulter's book and found a lot of inconsistencies, outright lies and quotes that are taken out of context. Who is responsible for those kinds of errors, the author or the editors?"

— "How should booksellers deal with this?"

In a later interview with me, the same interviewer asked me questions like these:

— "(W)ho is ultimately responsible for the errors (in your book), you, the publisher, or both?"

— "What gives — was this an honest mistake or malfeasance as he suggests?"

— "Why all the name calling?"

Apparently it never occurred to Publisher's Weekly that Franken's allegations of errors in my book — or "outright lies," as the interviewer put it — were false. ANNTHRAX goes on with a laughable explanation. Read it here if you have the patience for it

I dove into Ann's writing, which was a cross between bizarre accusations about liberal politicians and psycho babble hyperbolic lies that make no sense. The conservative men love her, because she is a loyal slave to the status quo. She is Cunta Kinte. As well as betraying her gender, as a notoriously anti-feminist woman hater, she is also racist, homophobic, without compassion, inhumane, arrogant, dishonest, contradictory, not funny, has an arguing technique that compares closely to "I know you are, but what am I?", wears red leather miniskirts and is just plain fucking wrong. I cannot even quote her because everything she says is too awful for me to write. All this and she isn't even hot. If you are going to be wrong, at least be hot.

Administration begins Homeland Security investigation into possible ties between Wilson and Al Qaeda

The Bush administration today announced the department of Homeland Security would begin an immediate investigation into those promoting the so called "Wilson Affair" after recieving credible evidence Wilson was most likely an Al Qaeda plant plotting to overthrow freedom and the american way of life. Officials wouldnt comment on specific information leading to the investigation other than to say "It is obvious anyone who would attack the US government so openly is very likely to have ties to Al Qaeda and possibly Saddam himself". When asked what evidence initiated the investigation spokesmen for Rumsfeld stated they could not disclose the specifics due to national security concerns.

Comment of the day:

Last spring, driving with my Dad, who likes the limbo-man, I actually heard Rush say something agreeable! I almost ran off the road when he said something like "The thing is with liberals is that they take too much time looking at all sides of an issue."

Ann Coulter Spontaneously Combusts - Pundit keeps talking while fully ablaze

Aug. 29 — Conservative pundit Ann Coulter spontaneously combusted today during an appearance on the Fox News Channel, sources at the cable network confirmed.
ACCORDING TO THOSE who witnessed the bizarre incident, Coulter was in the middle of an extended rant about liberal comedian Al Franken when her face became beet-red and smoke began to shoot out of both of her ears.
Then, almost without warning, Ms. Coulter appeared to burst into flames, sources said. The New York Fire Department immediately rushed to the scene to extinguish Coulter, who continued to talk even while fully ablaze. “We were dousing her with three fire hoses, but she just kept on yapping,” said Hal Reuss, a fireman who helped put out Ms. Coulter. “It was freaky.”
Meanwhile, outside the Fox News Channel’s New York headquarters, thousands of publicity-starved authors congregated, begging Fox to sue them.

PATRIOT ANNTHRAX CALLS FOR VETS DEATH VIA FRIENDLY FIRE

"Both were veterans, after a fashion, of Vietnam, which would make a Gore-Davis presidential ticket the only compelling argument yet in favor of friendly fire."

Being tried for TREASON was the worst fate Ann thrax Coulter could wish on Democrats, but it seems political defeat and imprisonment are not enough to satisfy her insatiable hatred. Annthrax now advocates 'friendly fire' as a final solution for those with whom she disagrees. When does her vitriol become an actual physical threat?
PASTY SKANK ANNTHRAX CHANNELS HER MENTOR

On a positive note this led to Lying in Ponds an interesting place to get political bearings.

ANN dREW sULLLLLIVAN gets his panties in a wad over Annthrax. poor sully.

But by making huge and sweeping generalizations about all liberals, Coulter undermines her own arguments and comes close to making them meaningless. If you condemn good and bad liberals alike, how can you be trusted to make any moral distinctions of any kind? And by defending the tactics of Joe McCarthy, she actually plays directly into the hands of the left. What she won't concede is that it is possible to be clear-headed about the role that some liberals and Democrats played in supporting the Soviet Union, while reviling the kind of tactics McCarthy used. In fact, when liberals taunt conservatives with being McCarthyites, conservatives now have to concede that some of their allies, namely Coulter, obviously are McCarthyites - and proud of it.

One of the most reputable scholars who has studied the McCarthy era in great detail, Ron Radosh, is appalled at the damage Coulter has done to the work he and many others have painstakingly done over the years. "I am furious and upset about her book," he told me last week. "I am reading it - she uses my stuff, Harvey Klehr and John Haynes, Allen Weinstein etc. to distort what we actually say and to make ludicrous and historically incorrect arguments. You might recall my lengthy and negative review in The New Republic a few years ago of Herman's book on McCarthy; well, she is ten times worse than Herman. At least he tried to use bona fide historical methods of research and argument." Now Radosh has endured ostracism and abuse for insisting that many of McCarthy's victims were indeed Communist spies or agents. But he draws the line at Coulter's crude and inflammatory defense of McCarthy. "I think it is important that those who are considered critics of left/liberalism don't stop using our critical faculties when self-proclaimed conservatives start producing crap."

Amen. American politics has been badly damaged by the scruple-free tactics of those like Michael Moore and Ann Coulter. In some ways, of course, these shameless hucksters of ideological hate deserve each other. But America surely deserves better.

ANNTHRAX COULTERGEIST is engaged in Satanic Cult intent on the Resurrection of Joseph R. McCarthy.

Sources close to the author of Treason and Libel say McCarthy's remains have been exhumed. Coulter is said to have practiced necrophilia with her mentor in a bizarre Satanic rite attempting post-mortem pregnancy. "Nothing would please me more than to be the mother of Joe's child who will be the savior of the Republican Party and certain death to all liberals and Democrats" Coulter said.
