the racist sheman coulter is defending PropaGannon on her web site...someone email me the article....
REPUBLICANS, BLOGGERS AND GAYS, OH MY!
<snip>"Press passes can't be that hard to come by if the White House allows that old Arab Helen Thomas to sit within yards of the president. Still, it would be suspicious if Dowd were denied a press pass while someone from "Talon News" got one, even if he is a better reporter."

1. Thomas An Arab? I'm not too sure about her nationality BUT I do know
Edited on Mon Feb-28-05 02:50 PM by Nikepallas
Ms. Thomas, who covered the White House for years, and at one time was respected by all the media has been forced to the back of the room because BUSHCO cannot deal with her hard hitting Bulldog(said with respect)questions and follow ups.


Coulter should have to get on her knees and say she is sorry to such a journalist.

2. So she is admitting
she hates all arabs? Why am I not surprised? She is evil incarnate in my opinion.

5. She's had no problem openly admitting
her hatred of ALL Arabs, even those born and raised in America, since 9/11. It certainly smoldered prior to that, but she had to keep it a little quieter. Now she's much freer to openly spew her hatred and anti-Americanism. Imagine if a Dem had said many of the same things she's been saying and getting away with!

3. We should just ignore her.
Her purpose is to both placate the idiots and inflame us so we concentrate on her idiocy and not what's actually going on. We're not going to outargue the Coulter readers. She's just acting as a lightening rod.

12. History has shown that you never ignore people like Coulter
Hitler and the Nazis were ignored at first, and we now know the results of that.

The French Royalty ignored the needs of the people, and we know that they lost their heads.

The Roman Empire in it's arrogance ignored the Huns, Gauls, Goths, and Visigoths. That ignorance helped in Rome's downfall.

So we should not ignore those like Coulter, Liimbaugh, Hannity, Savage, Medved, and the others like them. Because if we ignore them
we will pay for it later on down the line.

There's an old saying- Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer.

18. There's also another nice pair of sayings.
"Pick your battles."
"Discretion is the better part of valour."

I don't think Hitler is a good comparison. The Bourbons and Romans bear no resemblance. We should obviously keep abreast of what they're saying--I don't doubt that--but when they say things to provoke us, perhaps we shouldn't immediately go after that, losing sight of the bigger battles (SS reform).

7. It's Kind of Heartening
To see super-psycho Republicans like Coulter embracing a male prostitute who lied about his identity, posted nude pictures of himself online and verbally fellated Bush and McClellan in the press briefing room.

Any Republican who hitches their wagon to that particular star is doing us a tremendous favor, in my opinion.

10. But who's the " top"..................
I can't see Ann wanting to give that position up. Jeff says HE'S always the top. :shrug: I bet Ann's hung better than Jimmy-Jeff too.

21. It's a Phrase That Originally Seems to Come From an Old English Prayer
Take time to be friendly... it is the road to happiness
Take time to dream... it is hitching your wagon to a star
Take time to love and be loved... it is the privilege of the Gods
Take time to look around... it is too short a day to be selfish
Take time to laugh... it is the music to the soul



In the context I used it, it typically means that you are linking yourself to something with the hopes that as it rises, so will you. (Of course, if it happens to fall...)

11. Once again, Coulter gets the left riled up...

This is what Ann does: pisses the left off by saying the most outrageous thing possible. She knows what she's doing, and so should everyone here. Just ignore her. She is insignificant.

14. Coulter's entire being is consumed with hate.
She is an extremist. Everything about her is extreme. Until the Repubs (moderates) have enough sense to get rid of her, she will do nothing but harm their cause. Let her spew her BS...she'll wrap herself up nice and neatly with that tongue of hers soon enough! Blech!!!!!!!!

15. "Old Arab"
See, the thing is that she couldn't use the words "old Jew" because it would've pissed off some conservatives.

Coulter's "Superman," George W. Bush, apparently can't take an 84-year-old woman!

The W stands for . . .

24. That is true. I wonder why
few point out she dated an Arab? Of course, he was rich so it doesn't count?

32. It's because few people are as noxious as Ann Coulter
Few people feel comfortable referring to someone's ethnic heritage as relevant. Unless you are Ann Coulter, and then of course, all rules of civilization don't apply and you dismiss a veteran of the WH press corp as an "old Arab" of low quality.

columnist job recently. Can't anyone shut this vile human being up?

30. Ignoring the slime throwers is not wise.
We must fight back. Writing the sponsors is prolly the most effective way to nueter the scum. If anyone that was not a RW said things like she and other RW hate mongers spew, the Whore Media would be protesting.

31. Does anyone see the irony
that Coulter will defend a gay prostitute and make a racist comment about a law abiding senior citizen who happens to be Lebanese?


And the right wing says that they are the keepers of morality in society. Riiiiiiight. :wtf:
