Ann Coulter lies. quote: Sure. But most of us do not do so irresponsibly and maliciously in order to make truckloads of cash and obtain power and influence. What, are you saying that I can't or shouldn't judge someone according to their actions? I can and should.

quote: He's a Harvard graduate and a current Harvard research fellow. He's very, very bright. It takes a lot of smarts to be that funny. A certain nimbleness of mind. A lot of wit to be witty, one might say. Perhaps you might quote some of the things he's said which you believe are idiotic?

Holy crap, I had no idea what a rack of skin and bones she is.
It's easy to see that she isn't actually fit, just really too thin, because she has no muscle tone or definition at all. I wonder if she takes drugs to stay that thin or if she has an eating disorder?

OK, here's the thing about Ann coulter and satire, juggs.
If she is engaging in satire, she is clearly satirizing the radical right. That's what Stephen Colbert does. Everybody knows that Colbert isn't really a right-wing pundit. In fact, he's quite liberal, yet he portrays a very conservative right wing pundit on The Colbert Report in order to make fun of the policies and major players on the conservative right. He has often stated that one of the people he has modeled his character after is Bill O'Reilly, for example. If Coulter were to actually be engaging in satire to make fun of the left, she would have to portray a far-left pundit, and pretend to espouse a far left position. So, she isn't using satire.

quote: The thing is, he does this in order to be funny most of the time. The whole point of watching a Moore movie is to enjoy the humor he creates with the inappropriate and misleading edits.

He's a Harvard graduate and a current Harvard research fellow. quote: Being a Harvard research fellow has nothing to do with his parents, because he became a fellow in his forties. Do you even know what a research fellow is?
quote: So, then do you agree with Faith that this means that he must be a Marxist?
quote: Well, he did barely pass. And he did spend 20 years as a drunk. nd he has never run a successful business. And he can't construct a decently complex sentence in English to save his life.
quote: Why don't you post some of the political statements Franken has made which show him to be an idiot, then? You certainly don't need to buy one of his books hon, you're on the internet, remember? Here's the link to lots and lots of his words on his website. Go to it, man.

And about Al Franken's parents being rich?
His dad, who never finished high school, was a printing salesman and his mom was a real estate agent. I am sure they were OK financially, but I highly doubt they were anything other than middle class. They are certainly not "old money". I think he was probably able to go to Harvard because he got really good grades and his parents worked really hard to be able to send him.

quote: Which of Al Franken's political views horrify you?
quote: Who said the following: "We're going to keep the promise of Social Security and keep the government from raiding the Social Security surplus." "If we don't stop extending our troops all around the world in nation-building missions, then we're going to have a serious problem coming down the road."
