Once again, you've summed up the Coult mentality perfectly!

You aren't at all concerned about whether or not Ann's words were appropriate or not. You don't care. You only care to define it as a "war" and, heaven forbid, anyone dare say Ann Coulter's words were inappropriate for to do so would be a "retreat".

You whine about "our enemies" getting "a pass" --- as if that justifies similar behavior on our side. Incidentally, Bill Maher lost a show for calling our military "cowards" and the Dixie Chicks lost their audience --- not because of governmental retribution --- but because of citizens holding them accountable. And, incidentally, their words were covered in -gasp - the media!

"If it weren't for the media blowing this out of proportion and making it the top news item for the last 3 days, you wouldn't have know or cared. It was not an issue at CPAC." Ummmmmm.....actually the first I heard of it was here in FR posting of Michelle Malkin's comments. She was there. Is she now a part of the liberal media, too? This is an issue because Ann made it an issue. She knew exactly what she was doing. If it weren't for the media, Ann Coulter wouldn't have a career. She thrives on this stuff. She needs the controversy, so you can rest, assured, that Ann will be around for a very long time. And if things start to get slow for her again, she can just lob another grenade and watch the media buzz about her.

So you go ahead and proclaim you are proud when Ann calls people "faggots" and "harpies" and jokes about the death of judges and presidents --- but don't ever again cry about the comments of Maher, Franken etc. It's all free speech after all, isn't it?

They have free speech do they not? Did I miss something?

For a short time, if we are lucky.
