Ann Coulter, a legend, she has punch with her words. I wonder if she has a lot of staff that digs around and gets to all of this stuff that the main stream press won't cover.

Something happened to a few Gulf veterans.. They've gone down the McVeigh road, and have beceome more sympathetic to the islamic world than the American/Western world.

What was it? islam is one possibility, always. I feel that was the case of the sniper.

Was McVeigh and Scott Ritter also bought in by it? Hard to say..

No, she brought out the fact that on the form he filled out, he not only put the date (9/11) but put the TIME of the registration down as 8:52 am (the exact time when the first strike happened) Why would you write down a time like that, unless you were making a statement. Most people would round it up or down to the nearest :05 at a minimum. And don't try and say it's just a 'coincidence', let's live in the real world here.

It's far more relevant that they are muslim than that one of them had military experience.

Just imagine if they had turned out to be a white male, Christian NRA members.

How long can we put up with the liars in the media?

[Tribune7]

She's very much right. It seemed Hannity & Colmes were both ganging up on her.

[BreitbartSentMe]

Oops, my bad, when I re-read you post, I saw that you were pointing out the fact that it was ALSO on the day of the anniversary. (slinking away to lurk, and read more carefully from now on...)

"Also, she questioned the media for referring to him as a Gulf war veteran, when....he was a Gulf war veteran?"

Ann's point was that the media prefer to identify John Muhammad as John Williams. And as an "ex-soldier" or "Gulf war veteran" rather than "member of the Nation of Islam".

Thus, they identify the sniper as having been military, which was actually irrelevant to his actions. And avoid identifying him as a Muslim, which is relevant.

Ann called them on their spin.

but I'm not sure I see what she was complaining about this time.

Hey, maybe she was complaining about, uh, well, dorks like you...

[Reelect President Dubya]

I saw some of this and I wondered how Colmes can sleep at night. Must have a boy-friend?

Much as he used to irk me when I had cable, Allan is PAID to be on the opposite side as Sean. The day he takes the same side as his co-host is the day he will have to start looking for another job.

Sean Hannity and Allan Colmes are, first and foremost,... in Show Business.

Hmmm, a friend told me there was some inteligent debate here. Apparently not from you.

"Not only that, he actually registered the car on the anniversary of 9/11."

...and wrote the time 8:52am on the registration form. (I haven't read this but my sense is that there is not a spot on these forms for the TIME!)

[Reelect President Dubya]

Also, she questioned the media for referring to him as a Gulf war veteran, when....he was a Gulf war veteran?

The most accurate description of John Williams Muhammed would be "gay black Muslim." Since all three of those categories are sacred "protected minorities," the press choses to call him other things.

I'm perfectly aware what she brought out, I saw the segment too. I just added the anniversary DATE of registration info, because IMO the poster of this thread wasn't real clear on that.

[Biblebelter]

I made a comment similar to yours earlier this evening on another thread. My computer skills are such that I cannot provide a link, but the title of the thread is The Beltway Sniper Case: What's Race Got To Do With It?

"I wonder if she has a lot of staff that digs around and gets to all of this stuff that the main stream press won't cover."

Yes, she does have an extensive staff of unpaid researchers.

Collectively they are called freepers, and proud of it.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

What was maddening was that while he was trying to badger Ann, he was being intentionally obtuse as he was going at her on the Muslim angle. Basically trying to credit her with things she did not say. What a jerk.

[goodnesswins]

And,...don't forget the numbers of times people called the police/FBI on Muhammed (in Bellingham).....but, I guess that doesn't matter since he was a GULF WAR VETERAN!

[Darling Lili]

And don't try and say it's just a 'coincidence', let's live in the real world here.

What in the hell are you talking about? I was adding my 2 cents (as in "not only that") because I DON'T think it's a coincidence, you idiot.

Maybe they'll change the name of the show to "Hannity and Homo".
