I suppose we don't have to play by their rules, but it is not necessarily a bad idea to point out to them what their rules really are.
I thought Ann Coulter did a nice job of that with Rick Sanchez:
COULTER: Oh, no, no, no. There's a $100,000 reward for anyone who can produce a video of someone calling John Lewis the N-word one time, not to say 15 times.Maybe they would back off, if they are put in their place.That reward has been out there for three months.
SANCHEZ: And you're convinced that because no one has taken the money that it didn't happen?
COULTER: There is more evidence that you have a problem with kiddie porn. I have as much evidence for that as you do that John Lewis was called the N-word.
And, by the way, in fact, I have more evidence because there hasn't been the press searching all over you, trying to find your problem with kiddie porn, and a $100,000 reward for anyone who can produce evidence of your problem with kiddie porn.
So, I have a lot more evidence that you have a problem with kiddie porn than that any Tea Partier ever called John Lewis the N- word one time, forget 15 times.
Coulter put Sanchez in his place. I wish him the best of luck proving that he is not addicted to kiddie porn.
That's very good. Thank you. It DOES get frustrating to be put on the defensive, but good for Ann.
