Someone should ask Ann Coulter if she watched NBC's LAW & ORDER episode dealing with a conservative female who is obviously patterned after her... Did anyone else watch this episode?
This conservative female was speaking on a college campus against stem cell research. Then some left-wing student gets shot by a research student. The research student wanted to shoot her but he missed. The shooter suffers from Parkinson's disease...He blames her for putting pressure to stop the stem cell research...He wants the cure for his disease.
Ron Silver plays his lawyer...He manages to get the admission out of an witness, stating that stem cell research has a long way to go...No guarantee that it will work...Skepticism is expressed.
It was an interesting episode. I think it managed to be fair to both sides of political divide.
A character in the drama describes the conservative female as someone more outspoken than Ann Coulter...That was funny.
Sean Hannity was mentioned during the conversation between Ron Silver character and the Assistant DA...
I remember that,I almost needed a new laptop after I heard that.
I used to enjoy L&O, but then they started pushing an agenda. On one of the spinoffs (L&OSVU) they actually had our own white supremacists who had the WMD. At that point I switched to another channel.
The difference is, Ann would have returned fire.
As part of the liberal agenda that pervades Hollywood, the writers couldn't stop at one victim of a conservative who stands against stem cell research. The researcher, who is a victim of not enough research, had to shoot another liberal, so we could have double the victims because of a conservative.
Awesome.
Last night's show was remarkably balanced. They made the Ann Coulter character a little smug and arrogant, but she still won the argument she had with the Ron Silver defense attorney character.
The show has shifted a bit to the right since 9/11. Fred Thompson is now the DA (instead of Diane Wiest), Ron Silver (a post 9/11 conservative) is often guest, and Jack McCoy has turned into a pro-death penalty advocate.
Charlotte Ross is no Ann Coulter er, I mean Ann Coulter is no Charlotte Ross in her cute little peta ad. She was also on later episodes of NYPD Blue.
Lancey, My wife, an L&O officonado, swears that the characters "play" their real selves: Fred Thompson plays a somewhat conservative, pro-life boss; Sam Waterson plays the ultra-lib prosecutor who nevertheless is committed to the law, Jesse Martin plays a total lib, Belzer a complete whacko, and Ice T a conservative. So it wouldn't surprise me if, in fact, Mr. Ice is a registered Republican. Heck, in NY or Hollywood, that's nearly a lib.
Have to say, that actress is 20 times better looking than Ann.
The one that got me was a doctor who was delaying giving girls, I think, the "morning after" pills or delaying an abortion illegally---I forget the actual plot twist. In the end, Fred Thompson's character says, "I'm pro-life, but I'm also pro-law. Arrest him."
Did you ever see any of the West Wing shows a few seasons back, when Emily Proctor played an Ann Coulter type..
It was very fair..and I'd say, a surprising, and impassioned pro-life statement..
I started to watch it because I am a long standing law and order fan, but no more. This is the second week in a row they have really pissed me off, and obviously, they don't care. Well, neither do I, they can go to hell, with their ratings
Emily Proctor
Mmmmmmm. Southern belle charm, high heels, and guns. Sounds like heaven.

Still a hottie, but she's got a queen of the undead thing going on there. Still, pretty enough to overlook such minor foibles.
I also thought the Latina cop was quite the looker. Pity they ditched her.
He was secretly friends with the woman.
No I did not see it. I draw my opinion from viewing past programs.
I don't know, but it would be interesting to know.
MutttheHoople: I loved your live version of "All The Young Dogs." : )
