You know, I've been on this site for a LONG time, I can very clearly remember when every time someone posted an article by Ann Coulter (back when she was conservative) or any other good looking conservative female commentator, that everyone would holler about "the rules" - which meant the original poster was supposed to also post pictures of the commentator in question, preferably the most sexy pictures possible.

But because Megyn Kelly opposes Trump, everyone here is trying to call her a slut for doing the same thing that most cheered women like Coulter for doing. Just more evidence that Trump support follows no logic or reason, just emotion. Anyone for Trump - good. Anyone against Trump - bad.

Coulter never posed for such pictures, and neither has most conservative journalists. Megyn did.

The short skirt pics came from Ann who wears them routinely, and the phrase “leg lady” was coined after she appeared on Fox probably 10 years ago and a camera operator kept showing her legs. The liberal press at the time called conservatives ugly prudes, but the leg thing stuck. More and more “Fox babes” started wearing short dresses and the liberal press went nuts. Fox still uses the short dresses as a prop for ratings.

However, that shtick has gotten old and is now hurting Fox as being a serious journalist channel and not just social media commentators.

Coulter never did a ‘spread’ for GQ in a nighty and high heels displaying her wares, either. FYI, I’ve been here a while too.

So, you approve of Kelly throwing that “War On Women” crap at a Republican candidate for President? Has Coulter ever made such a bullshit charge about ANY Republican presidential candidate?

Only Liberal-Leftist “journalists” have made similar charges. And I HATE Leftists.

Oh and BTW: Where in the hell do you get the ridiculous idea that Megyn Kelly is a “conservative?”

Not me. I apply my rules even-handedly and on all sides of the aisle and political persuasion.

Don’t waste your breath, this place looks like a yahoo message board.

I think you're missing the whole point.

It has been discussed here during every election cycle, that the Republican establishment has done a horrible job by letting the leftist media control the narrative. The liberals get to ask gotcha questions to the Republican candidates yet let the Democrats off easy. During the Romney/Obama debate Candy Crowley was clearly in the tank for Obama and helped him during the debate. This was and should be unacceptable.

Fast forward to this election cycle. The media in general and Kelly in particular have sinking Trump as goal #1. It's Trump now because he is the one in the lead. If Cruz were in the lead it would be him, and if it was Jeb, the media would be trying to sink him, although they might hold fire until after he was nominated.

We need someone who stands up to this and fires back. We have that in Trump. He's not my first choice, but things like this make me support him more and more. We need a bulldozer that doesn't play by the media rules. Reagan did this by talking over the media and directly to the people. Something to learn from.
