My guess is, after the whole traitor thing made Coulter look like such a playground twerp outside her faithful circle, no one gave a crap any longer about what names she calls anyone.

Could be.

If I think someone is a deranged idiot

The reason I made the mental note to bring to the thread's attention the next funny Coulter bit I came across was because the earlier discussion came across to me like a manifestation of the devil effect. The angel and devil effects are logical fallacies. Just because Coulter is the devil doesn't mean that she cannot sometimes be funny or have a good point or love her mother. Even serial killers can get off a good joke. It's one thing to say that he's a killer so I won't listen to his jokes or laugh at his jokes or give him the satisfaction of laughing at his jokes, it's another to deny the joke.

I don't know if that's what's going on here or not. I really don't. But I was curious about it. Still am.

Dale

Ann has quite a following. In fact, I read on a S.I. board a post that said she (Ann) could identify the Republican party as far as the poster was concerned.

If I were a Republican when I read that I would have resigned from the club... or just thought that the poster deranged...?

who gives a flying leap about what Coulter says to or about anyone?

Like it or not, she is saying what a lot of people are thinking.

It used to be that people were ashamed that they felt the way Coulter now advocates. They knew what they felt was wrong. But now, Coulter and the other right wingers are giving legitimacy to these shameful thoughts. It is now okay to express hatred. It is now okay to advocate that some people should be killed - put to death - pre-emptively.

If I think someone is a deranged idiot, I don't waste two seconds listening to or responding to anything they spew out.

That's why I always turn the channel whenever Bush appears on my television set. Absolutely. All the time. Every time he evers appear on my television set, I click the remote to another station.

Same with Cheney. Hatch. McCain. Santorum. And, of course, Ann Coulter. She is totally deranged.
