Comments on: Little Orphan Ann Coulter http://scrutinyhooligans.us/2007/06/26/little-orphan-ann-coulter/ If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen. — Samuel Adams Tue, 16 Mar 2010 13:13:28 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Drama Queen http://scrutinyhooligans.us/2007/06/26/little-orphan-ann-coulter/comment-page-1/#comment-9474 Drama Queen Wed, 27 Jun 2007 22:57:59 +0000 http://www.scrutinyhooligans.us/?p=3486#comment-9474 Ditto to Kai's idea. She's obviously somewhat ill. Even if it's all planned as a political and money-making strategy, what a sad way to live your life. I only make provoking comments when I perceive something to be seriously in need of change. Is it the Cherokee that respect the insane and support and love them without reacting to their obviously provocative behavior? I love you, Ann. You're wonderful. Have a nice day. Ditto to Kai’s idea.

I did hear a rumor a while back that Bill Maher hit that around the time that <em>High Crimes and Misdemeanors</em> was published. Just a rumor, nothing more. Does Bill Maher know all there is to know about the crying game? Hadn’t heard that rumor, Shad.

Coulter is not worth the effort it takes to type her name. There are special places in Hell...... I like Kai’s idea.

We have the habit of shunning people that behave like Ann Coulter, we act as if she is dead and we do not talk about the dead.... I suggest the same here.... sometimes it is much better to just agree that a person is not worse the time and effort and therefor is like dead. Let's have a funeral for her and never speak of her ever again. Kai As some may know not only am I German but rather from the northern Tribe of Germans know as Frieslander.

However, with my support for the candidate that I'm currently enamored with heading straight for the toilet for reasons I'd rather not go into right now, all I can say is anything's possible. It just seems like every time someone says something negative about Edwards in the press, his campaign sends out an e-mail saying "How dare they say such terrible things about him? Now send us some money to prove them wrong!" or something to that effect. That fundraising strategy is obviously effective, or else they wouldn't keep doing it. It just doesn't sit well with me. Of course, the last time I gave money to any political candidate, he ended up reneging on a couple of his campaign promises... and I have a cat to feed. “Hate Criminal Ann Coulter” – I like it, but I’m more inclined to refer to her as “Mann Coulter”

Eleanor Roosevelt could speak more openly than her husband without the negative impact, and Elizabeth's doing the same, equally well. As to Coulter, I think every time we mention her, we should use a modifier. "Hate criminal Ann Coulter said..." If it gets repeated consistently, people will come to see her in exactly those terms.
