No, she's very, very bright. And a lawyer. Oh wait! Isn't that mutually exclusive???  :-)

Not at all, unless you attach the word "activist" to it.

Read Ann Coulters Bio. She Isn't your typical dumb blonde.

Well, no, she is not. I just think she is more like a stand-up comedian than she is like a William F. Buckley, Jr. I enjoy her work, too, I just think we should not take her too seriously. If we did, some of us would be a little offended, and rightly so.

What Ann does...is say what most of us think...but are afraid to say outselves.  And what drives the left completely batty over her statements is that they know she's right.

In some regards she is a lot like Bill Buckley. She just uses terminolgy most people can understand.

I don't think anyone should deliberately set out to offend but if what they say is truth and it offends someone oh well.

I somewhat think that's where the Conservatives/Reps are loosing the battle,to many are scared they might offend someone.
It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

There are ways to say somethings that she does, without being so abrasive.  I find her obnoxious personally.  Right more often then not, but still obnoxious.

Most of her interviews she is rather level headed & courteous & polite. Now if she senses someone is yanking her chain she isn't scared to yank back. may be bias but I don't find her nearly as Obnoxious and mean spirited as you avg Liberal talking head or liberal proponent.

I think that is the rights major setback they are letting the left control the game by establishing rules of engagement only the right has to abide by.

Hell you might agree almost 100% with someone but no one likes a wimp.

Zeus, you are quite correct. For far too long the "right" has alowed the "left" to establish rules for the right that they are free to ignore. Ann , of course, counter argues/attacks, regardless of how the left thinks she should. And she does in mockingly with reasonably good humor. I have listened to her and found the comments full of biteing humor, but have not heard the hate that flows froM THE MOUTHS OF the likes of Howard Dean, Alex Baldwin, "Jimmuh"  and on down.


Frankly, I believe it is an ERROR not to give back more than we get, but it has to be done with humor, rather than the lefts acid dripping hate. Ever listen to Alan Combs nonsense? Harry Reid's, Barny Frank's?

THEY are playing hardball while saying the RIGHT should play wiffleball and not complain when hit by a bean ball. That's just stupid. On our part.

If she were gay I would seriously have to consider batting for the other team if I even had a chance.  Ann is one of my heroes.

To some, yes, she can come off as abrasive... I don't know about offensive, but look at who the mouthpieces for the left are.. Randi Rhoades, Al Franken, Alan Colmes (and that is on his heh... radio show), Maureen Down, etc. They are more offensive then Ann because they're comments are vile against American values, the military, etc. and most of the shit they spew are lies. Ann bites back, but with the truth. Liberals hate to see themselves in the mirror, and she does it well.

I don't think that the right needs to follow rules established by the left. But I still think that there are rules we all should follow. Just because MoveOn.org or Michael Moore are being stupid, does not mean we should prove we can be stupid, too. Society is becoming less civil and less polite, and we should not add to the problem, even if we did not start the fire ourselves. This is one of those rare times when it is true that "an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." Do we really want to go down that road?

We can be so bothered by Micheal Moore, Cindy Sheehan, Nancy Pelosi, et al, that we forget that the majority of the people are in the middle. How can we persuade them? By being civil and polite. I am not saying we will ever win over MoveOn.org or the Daily Kos, but we can win over the majority in the middle.

When the left is rude and insulting to your face, you suggest being polite? Without scarcasm? Without pointing out the rudeness? The lies, fraud, deception? Boy, without being direct but with sharply directed humor, I xcan't see it working. May I say Sen. John McCain is the perfect example of the polite, sane, inclusive exajmple, and may I aslo point out it was an ABJECT failure.

If they speak their mind/truth...they are blasted with a broadside from the MSM for a month.
