In the Coultergeist's wake, a teachable moment

I notice another lib hit piece without even one quote of the so-called 'hate speech'. You would think at least a few of the brain dead left or their 'useful idiots' would want a few examples. Not everyone was in attendance.

The question is not whether vile speech is allowed. It is, and it can be very profitable, as Coulter knows. The real question is, what is acceptable on a campus and where is the line between illumination and conflagration?

Lessee...Coulter's speech was allowed, but the question is whether it was acceptable. If it was unacceptable isn't that another way of saying it shouldn't be allowed?

If it isn't allowed, then it is censored. Free speech for leftists, but not for conservatives. His tortured efforts at obfuscation are inadequate.

Oh, YES!

-- her manner of speech was so inflammatory and her derogatory ripostes so intimidating that both campuses she plucked last week (a total take of $50,000 or more) are still reverberating.

Inflamma-what? Deroga-who? Reverba-where? I'm just a gun-totin', chew-spittin', backwoods redneck hick, and I can't follow all those ten-dollar words.

Only stupid people (i.e., liberals) are impressed by this kind of tripe. I bet his liberal editor pays him by the syllable.

A teachable moment? Certainly not by the likes of an intellectual lightweight like Nick Coleman.

Good point.

"Coultergeist".... Heh. I actually kind of like that. I can just imagine little Heather O'Rourke saying "She's he-ere...."

This is the second time in one week that Nick the Dick has the felt the need to unload on Coulter. And he still doesn't have any facts on his side.

[goldstategop]

As Ann would say in response: liberal retorts are fact-free as well untethered to logic. Nick Coleman doesn't discuss the facts or try to convince readers Ann's wrong. Instead, he does the verbal equivalent of throwing a pie at her. Liberals would be funny if they weren't so stupid. On second thought, their stupidity is a constant source of amusement to people obssessed with the truth and with the power of ideas.

Minnesota has not been Liberal for 20 years.

Bush has nearly won the state, twice.

Hasn't had a Democrat governor for about 15 years.

Har!!!
You can easily tell when Ann has hit her mark - - scumbags like Nick Coleman squeal like pigs.
