KO is going to weigh in on Coulter's 9/11 widow attack tonight (Wed)

From Countdown email:

A constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage went down to Senate defeat Wednesday, but supporters said that several new votes for the measure represent progress that gives the GOP's base reason to vote on Election Day. The 49-48 vote fell 11 short of the 60 required to send the matter for an up-or-down tally by the full Senate. Had the amendment survived, a two-thirds majority in both houses of Congress would have been required to send it to the states. It then would have had to be ratified by at least 38 state legislatures. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13181735/

Meanwhile, on the subject of something that might just require Congress' attention...

U.S. Marines accused of killing 24 unarmed Iraqis in Haditha will cite chaotic battle conditions as their defense if charged with murder, said a source close to one of the soldiers under investigation. The source, who declined to be identified because military prosecutors have yet to press charges, said some of the 24 dead could have been insurgents. Those killed in the western Iraqi town last November 19 included men, women and children. http://today.reuters.com/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=newsOne&storyID=2006-06-07T153858Z_01_N07171643_RTRUKOC_0_US-IRAQ-HADITHA-DEFENSE.xml

KEITH is BACK.

A former Republican congressman narrowly beat his Democratic rival early Wednesday for the right to fill the House seat once held by imprisoned Randy "Duke" Cunningham, a race closely watched as a possible early barometer of next fall's vote. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13169540/

Keith weighs in on the Ann Coulter appearance with Matt Lauer.

1. Oh Lordy, here we go.

I have this weird feeling (after he once shattered an Ann Coulter doll to bits on screen during a stunning moment of clarity) that Keith is not fond of Ann.

This should be good tonight.

The only question is, how evil will Keith become?

a) A little evil
b) Pretty darn evil
c) So evil that when Coulter sees the show she'll turn back into a bat and go fluttering back to Trannie-sylvannia

I'm bettin' on C!!! :bounce:

[The Deacon]

2. What?

Keith doesn't like over-priced Republican crackwhores? Who'd a thunk it?

[amitten]

3. Over-priced???

Honey, you KNOW she'll do it for free!

[Buns_of_Fire]

6. THIS... will be "must see" TV!

It would also be a good night for Monica to present him with a replacement Ann Coulter doll, since the last one met such an unfortunate demise. (Hint: Give it to him BEFORE he does the Coulter story. Perhaps we'll be treated to a demonstration of proper machete technique!) :evilgrin:

[amitten]

7. I prefer burning in effigy. Starting with the hair...

peroxide is VERY flammable!

[Berry Cool]

8. Well, given that when he was on Dan Patrick's radio show yesterday

on ESPN Radio, and Dan Patrick actually brought her up (yes, on a SPORTS show) and said "What is her deal?" and Keith called her a bad, evil person and added "And I think she used to be a man. I'm not sure, but I think she used to be a man"...get ready for the fur to fly!

[LisaM]

4. He has a personal stake in it - they both went to Cornell

and he always claims that she didn't learn her researching skills there. I have to add, she certainly didn't pick them up at the University of Michigan, either - where she somehow picked up a law degree.

[amitten]

5. I wonder where she "picked up" everything else.

That woman is a piece of work.

I wish alopecia on her.

[Mr_Spock]

9. KO kicks ass

:D

[amitten]

10. Yeah. But he can REALLY kick Coulter ass. (And O'Reilly ass.)

And I think he might actually have integrity, or something like that. Integrity...does that still, um, exist?
