HUMAN EVENTS Exclusive: Coulter Takes on 'Christine Todd Witless'

So I guess the lesson is: tolerate moderates if you must, try to convert them to true conservatism if you can, and don't take them seriously or give them power until they do.

I agree with that!

"I hate the SOB no matter what; I'm never voting Republican".

They hate George W. Bush so much because he looks, acts, and talks like most of America.

They are not the "I hate Bush party", they are the "I hate America" party.

Ms. Whitman, Arnold, Rudy and the rest should take the Democratic party back from the kooks. Then we could return to a serious, and civil, debate on social issues.

No wonder the Lefties so hate Annie, she backs up her reasoning with facts. There's also some good advice for Conservies: CW's...book is useful only as a sort of "Scared Straight" program for Republicans...believe these sophistries, you could end up locked on the wrong side of history.

Nice find on this article. Thanks.

I think it should be posted again whenever the RINOs start making noises about how we need to get more moderate.

Ping for my favorite quotes:


"Without a freak event like Watergate or Ross Perot, the Democrats would not have elected a single President since 1964. "

This is a two-fer--not only does she make a point that Demos are unsuccessful, she slams the "freak event" Ross Perot.

"As the extra little strawberry on top, the opposition party is in complete disarray desperately trying to fake a belief in moral values and to come up with a new stance on abortion that will stop scaring voters. Solely to avoid disappearing as a Party, the Democrats will probably modify their position on abortion before Whitman does. "

While slamming Demos, she backhands Whitman again.


"This may be the worst timed book since James Glassman and Kevin Hassett's DOW 36,000: The New Strategy for Profiting from the Coming Rise in the Stock Market, predicting in September, 1999 that the stock market was about to shoot sky high -- 6 months before it collapsed. "

I remember those days. I looked at the P/E ratios (100:1 to 300:1) and figured what their earnings had to be to justify them and I stayed away from them like they were radioactive. Even Microsoft.

"Leaving aside the substantive point of whether Republicans should join Whitman in placing more value on Bambi's life than the life of an unborn human baby, Whitman raises an empirical question. "

A classic Coulterism--condemning Demos for their positions by showing how ridiculous they are.

And I've gotta go--that's it for now.

"So are we to assume that Whitman et al are an insignificant entitity?"

Not insignificant - just not worth the price of their patronage either. As Coulter points out, when you appeal to this supposedly "moderate" entity, you lose a much larger entity - the pro-life wing of the party.

Whitman's "moderate" position on abortion is to VETO a partial-birth-abortion ban that passed by a large margin. Excuse me, but if legalizing killing babies as the head crowns is "moderate", what's "extreme" going the other way? Killing them on their -second- birthday?
