Ann Coulter: YOU CAN'T APPEASE EVERYBODY (Try Try Again?)
AnnCoulter.Com ^ | May 28, 2008 | Ann Coulter

YOU CAN'T APPEASE EVERYBODY
May 28, 2008


After decades of comparing Nixon to Hitler, Reagan to Hitler and Bush to Hitler, liberals have finally decided it is wrong to make comparisons to Hitler. But the only leader to whom they have applied their newfound rule of thumb is: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

While Ahmadinejad has not done anything as starkly evil as cut the capital gains tax, he does deny the Holocaust, call for the destruction of Israel, deny the existence of gays in Iran and refuses to abandon his nuclear program despite protests from the United Nations. That's the only world leader we're not allowed to compare to Hitler.

President Bush's speech at the Knesset two weeks ago was somewhat more nuanced than liberals' Hitler arguments. He did not simply jump up and down chanting: "Ahmadinejad is Hitler!" Instead, Bush condemned a policy of appeasement toward madmen, citing Neville Chamberlain's ill-fated talks with Adolf Hitler.

Suspiciously, Bush's speech was interpreted as a direct hit on B. Hussein Obama's foreign policy -- and that's according to Obama's supporters.

So to defend Obama, who -- according to his supporters -- favors appeasing madmen, liberals expanded the rule against ad Hitlerum arguments to cover any mention of the events leading to World War II. A ban on "You're like Hitler" arguments has become liberals' latest excuse to ignore history.

Perhaps in the spirit of compromise, Obama could agree to let Iran push only half of Israel into the sea.

I can’t help but mention it once again. If you haven’t seen “Hillary’s Downfall” on You Tube, very funny but very strong language. Not for everyone, cursing rampant. Relevant to this thread, she’s portrayed as the Hitler character in Downfall.

The only explanation for liberals' hysterical zealotry in favor of Obama's proposed open-ended talks with Ahmadinejad is that they seriously imagine crazy foreign dictators will be as charmed by Obama as cable TV hosts whose legs tingle when they listen to Obama (a condition that used to be known as "sciatica").

"...We always have the ability to 'talk' to Ahmadinejad if we have something to say.

Bush has a telephone.

If Iranian crop dusters were headed toward one of our nuclear power plants, I am quite certain that Bush would be able to reach Ahmadinejad to tell him that Iran will be flattened unless the planes retreat.

If his cell phone died, Bush could just post a quick warning on the Huffington Post." - Ann Coulter

ZING!

Without a stick, there's only a carrot.

Charles Kathhammer made the same point a few weeks ago on Fox.

He basically said Obama would turn the other check to Hamas, Hezzbollah and Syria as Iranian proxies

“Perhaps in the spirit of compromise, Obama could agree to let Iran push only half of Israel into the sea.”

Correct.

What is there to talk or compromise about? Killing only MOST Jews? Covering HALF our heads and praying more-or-less towards Mecca?

Negotiations require some sort of common ground -— a give-or-take.

We have nothing to talk about with the Iranians.

It’s kill or be killed.

Any fool who denies the existance of God has never read an Ann Coulter column. A mind that brilliant has to come directly from God himself!

"We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK," Obama said.

Same old liberal story.

Don't encourage fourth world countries to bring themselves up out of the muck of riding dunkeys, half starving and freezing/and-or/sweating to death; but bring us down to their level.

What an amazing quote, thanks for the graphics.

Gen. Douglas C. MacArthur talked with Japanese imperial forces on Sept. 2, 1945. There was a long ceremony aboard the USS Missouri with full press coverage and a lot of talk. It was a regular international confab!

This is a great line. However, I thought MacArthur's middle name was Arthur. I tried to look it up but could not find anything. I did notice from the wikipedia site that they say he had two older brothers. I also remember he only had one - Arthur MacArthur III - who graduated from the Naval Academy and was a rising star in the Navy until he died young from a tropical disease. I often wondered what it would have been like to have two MacArthur's leading troops during WW II.

My top ten Ann Attacks:

10. Does Obama imagine he will make demands of Ahmadinejad? Using what stick as leverage, pray tell? A U.S. boycott of the next Holocaust-denial conference in Tehran?

9. What possible reason is there to meet with Ahmadinejad? To win a $20 bar bet as to whether or not the man actually owns a necktie?

8. Perhaps in the spirit of compromise, Obama could agree to let Iran push only half of Israel into the sea. That would certainly constitute “change”! “

7. “Obama could give one of those upbeat speeches of his, saying: As a result of my recent talks with President Ahmadinejad, some see the state of Israel as being half empty. I prefer to see it as half full. “

6. So to defend Obama, who — according to his supporters — favors appeasing madmen, liberals expanded the rule against ad Hitlerum arguments to cover any mention of the events leading to World War II. A ban on “You're like Hitler” arguments has become liberals’ latest excuse to ignore history.

5. Suspiciously, Bush's speech was interpreted as a direct hit on B. Hussein Obama’s foreign policy — and that's according to Obama’s supporters.

4. While Ahmadinejad has not done anything as starkly evil as cut the capital gains tax, he does deny the Holocaust, call for the destruction of Israel, deny the existence of gays in Iran and refuses to abandon his nuclear program despite protests from the United Nations. That's the only world leader we're not allowed to compare to Hitler.

3. I am quite certain that Bush would be able to reach Ahmadinejad to tell him that Iran will be flattened unless the planes retreat. If his cell phone died, Bush could just post a quick warning on the Huffington Post.

2. Because, really, who better to face down a Holocaust denier with a messianic complex than the guy who is afraid of a debate moderated by Brit Hume?

1. “Gen. Douglas C. MacArthur talked with Japanese imperial forces on Sept. 2, 1945. There was a long ceremony aboard the USS Missouri with full press coverage and a lot of talk. It was a regular international confab!

It also took place after we had dropped two nukes on Japan and MacArthur was officially accepting Japan's surrender. If Obama plans to drop nukes on Ahmadinejad prior to their little chat-fest, I'm all for it. But I don't think that's what liberals have in mind.”

As usual, Ann saves her best line for the end. That is good writing!

I did verify it is “Douglas C. MacArthur”.
