I HATE ANN COULTER!!!!

I didn't get the impression she meant, believed, or even understood a word she said. The nadir, as always with these right-wing pundits, was the section of her talk, after 20 minutes of the unfunniest fucking jokes you have ever heard in your life, about how liberals have no sense of humour. Because we don't find it funny anymore to hear someone's pithy observations regarding gay guys' facility in throwing a baseball.

I would have liked (guiltily) to hear someone laying into the Tribunal;s policy and the free speech discrimination provisions. My reservations about its effectiveness and worth are one of like five political subjects I'm sympathetic to "conservative" viewpoints about

I mean I don't expect her to get someone to put together a whole hour of material that's relevant to an audience she's going to be speaking in front of three times (two, it turned out), but at least give us SOMETHING. Oh! I shouted out a good heckle, though: she was talking about Obama's executive leadership experience, after having spent some time talking about Jesus, and she said "There were 12 apostles-- even Jesus had more leadership experience than this guy!" and I called out "Darker skin, too"

LOL. Good one! Totally agree re. the Human Rights Tribunal. eg. A great restaurant down the road from my house is currently weathering a controvertial HR case brought by a woman claiming human-rights abuse caused by a comedian telling a bunch of gags about lesbians. If Coulter's rhetoric wasn't so lazy and US-centric she could actually have brought some attention to stuff like this.

Oh, I've been following that, sort of. Didn't his lawyer pull a "I'm out of order? YOU'RE out of order! This whole damn SYSTEM is out of order!" and storm out of the hearing? That's the last thing I heard.

oh i was reading about that!
something about some carpet munchers heckling a comedian and then not appreciating the return volley.

xpost!!!

Basically the BC HR Tribunal have no juristiction to even be hearing this case. They would have to define the comedian as being an employee of the restaurant, which he clearly is not. They are going ahead with it anyway, despite not establishing any authority. The comedians lawyer walked out at that point. It's a total farce.

Importantly, the BC HRT had previously been told by a court that they had establish juristiction before proceeding. An order which they ignored.

Thermo pls webmail me your mailing address & expect a summons in the mail irt my pending claim on the basis of your hate speech on Tuesday, April 20, 2010 5:50 PM

You know there's something wrong when you find yourself in agreement with the likes of Margaret Wente.

To return to the original point, it would have been so easy for Coulter to get some mileage out of this case when she was here in Canada. Especially since her Canadian promoter, Ezra Levant has been all over the BC Tribunal case for ages now.

It's a very important system to have in place-- it's great that it's there, and in theory it's an vital resource to be made available in a liberal democracy for the use of private citizens in resolving what are usually serious and meritous claims. it's just that they were doing it really inefficiently before, so in response to complaints about delay and procedure they changed it and fucked it up way worse. it's way underfunded and understaffed on every level, so people don't get the support that they need and wind up flustering their avenues of access to the justice available, and frivolous claims get through too often because of inadequate investigation and they make big news, and it all just serves to undermine the credibility of the system further. wanto to get rid of something that's a pain in your ass but people won't let you get rid of it because they think they need it? get some bureaucrats to go in and fuck it up so bad everyone winds up hating it

then maybe her whole public persona really is just an act

would make her just as reprehensible IMO. maybe more.

Yep. I posted without really thinking. She's probably the vilest person on the continent. I mean, if JJ's a conservative, so what? I have no problem with that. But Coulter's race-baiting stuff is just awful. Or maybe JJ doesn't give a shit? Why should I assume he would?

I think maybe we should stop calling Jimmy Walker "JJ" and start calling him "Uncle Ruckus"

“Among gay conservatives, she is an icon,” said Christopher Barron, chairman of GOProud’s board, who spoke at Homocon. “We could not think of anyone who we would want to party with more.” Jimmy LaSalvia, the group’s executive director, exclaimed: “Just look at her shoes!”

Coulter seeks new Image

Coulter said that might be a weakness in the Republican Party as a whole — that certain individuals become celebrities and are allowed to profit off that status and yet still interfere in GOP politics, which Democrats have been able to avoid.

“And just a more corporate problem is I think our party and particularly our movement, the conservative movement, does have more of a problem with con men and charlatans than the Democratic Party,” she said. “I mean, the incentives seem to be set up to allow people — as long as you have a band of a few million fanatical followers, you can make money. The Democrats have managed to figure out how not to do that.”

She cited Ohio Democratic Rep. Dennis Kucinich and former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean as examples where despite having a loyal following, Democrats haven’t honored him with even an MSNBC show.

“No, no, no — you embarrass us and drag this thing out, you are finished in the Democratic Party,” she said.

it is weird to see Ann saying something lucid, although it is very lol and in character that said lucidity is happening because she's trying to ice out competition from hurting her punditry's bottom line

When even Malkin thinks you've gone too far...

I have to say, I'm surprised that's all she said

suffers from Don Imus syndrome

Wow, Coulter on Piers Morgan digging in. She's said "creton" twice in the last three minutes--some kind of mythical creature that crosses Ramones imagery with Caesar salads and sofa beds.

did she mean cretin

Croatan?

Sure--and she corrected herself each time. Just thought it was funny. She's also claiming--insisting--that no one ever uses "retard" to belittle people with Down Syndrome, etc., and that neither would she; it's just another synonym for "loser" or idiot.

Or "faggot."

did piers ask her about dinesh y/n

Not yet; still a few minutes to go.

what a pathetic attention whore. imagine how bad she must have been in high school

she is a despicable human and i really wish her the worst.

Really interested in her new book about racial demagoguery titled MUGGED.

I missed the beginning last night...I'll queasily give her a draw for the first 3:30; from "more child molesters in America than racists" forward, she's off the reservation, and her disingenuous on how people use "retard" is disgusting.

Tried to cast my mind back to which Ann Coulters I might have gone to high school with, couldn't make that leap. I'm sure she was a real piece of work.

"disingenuousness"

she is a despicable human and i really wish her the worst.

it's plenty good enough to wish obscurity upon her. that, plus having to live with herself for the rest of her days.

Yeah, I think that the world ceasing to pay any attention to her is about the worst thing that could happen to Ann Coulter. Her eyes tell me that death would be nothing but a sweet release.

yeah, that's true. it's always regrettable (albeit understandable) when folks post her latest outrage to this or that website--there's really no reason to give her any attention, she feeds on it.

she is a despicable human and i really wish her the worst.

What?! I thought she was dead.

http://www.clarionledger.com/story/opinion/columnists/2014/06/25/coulter-growing-interest-soccer-sign-nations-moral-decay/11372137/

lmao

I've held off on writing about soccer for a decade — or about the length of the average soccer game — so as not to offend anyone. But enough is enough. Any growing interest in soccer can only be a sign of the nation's moral decay.

• Individual achievement is not a big factor in soccer. In a real sport, players fumble passes, throw bricks and drop fly balls — all in front of a crowd. When baseball players strike out, they're standing alone at the plate. But there's also individual glory in home runs, touchdowns and slam-dunks.

In soccer, the blame is dispersed and almost no one scores anyway. There are no heroes, no losers, no accountability, and no child's fragile self-esteem is bruised. There's a reason perpetually alarmed women are called "soccer moms," not "football moms."

Do they even have MVPs in soccer? Everyone just runs up and down the field and, every once in a while, a ball accidentally goes in. That's when we're supposed to go wild. I'm already asleep.

• Liberal moms like soccer because it's a sport in which athletic talent finds so little expression that girls can play with boys. No serious sport is co-ed, even at the kindergarten level.

• No other "sport" ends in as many scoreless ties as soccer. This was an actual marquee sign by the freeway in Long Beach, California, about a World Cup game last week: "2nd period, 11 minutes left, score: 0:0." Two hours later, another World Cup game was on the same screen: "1st period, 8 minutes left, score: 0:0." If Michael Jackson had treated his chronic insomnia with a tape of Argentina vs. Brazil instead of Propofol, he'd still be alive, although bored.

Even in football, by which I mean football, there are very few scoreless ties — and it's a lot harder to score when a half-dozen 300-pound bruisers are trying to crush you.

• The prospect of either personal humiliation or major injury is required to count as a sport. Most sports are sublimated warfare. As Lady Thatcher reportedly said after Germany had beaten England in some major soccer game: Don't worry. After all, twice in this century we beat them at their national game.

Baseball and basketball present a constant threat of personal disgrace. In hockey, there are three or four fights a game — and it's not a stroll on beach to be on ice with a puck flying around at 100 miles per hour. After a football game, ambulances carry off the wounded. After a soccer game, every player gets a ribbon and a juice box.

• You can't use your hands in soccer. (Thus eliminating the danger of having to catch a fly ball.) What sets man apart from the lesser beasts, besides a soul, is that we have opposable thumbs. Our hands can hold things. Here's a great idea: Let's create a game where you're not allowed to use them!

• I resent the force-fed aspect of soccer. The same people trying to push soccer on Americans are the ones demanding that we love HBO's "Girls," light-rail, Beyonce and Hillary Clinton. The number of New York Times articles claiming soccer is "catching on" is exceeded only by the ones pretending women's basketball is fascinating.

I note that we don't have to be endlessly told how exciting football is.

• It's foreign. In fact, that's the precise reason the Times is constantly hectoring Americans to love soccer. One group of sports fans with whom soccer is not "catching on" at all, is African-Americans. They remain distinctly unimpressed by the fact that the French like it.

• Soccer is like the metric system, which liberals also adore because it's European. Naturally, the metric system emerged from the French Revolution, during the brief intervals when they weren't committing mass murder by guillotine.

Despite being subjected to Chinese-style brainwashing in the public schools to use centimeters and Celsius, ask any American for the temperature, and he'll say something like "70 degrees." Ask how far Boston is from New York City, he'll say it's about 200 miles.

Liberals get angry and tell us that the metric system is more "rational" than the measurements everyone understands. This is ridiculous. An inch is the width of a man's thumb, a foot the length of his foot, a yard the length of his belt. That's easy to visualize. How do you visualize 147.2 centimeters?

• Soccer is not "catching on." Headlines this week proclaimed "Record U.S. ratings for World Cup," and we had to hear — again about the "growing popularity of soccer in the United States."

The USA-Portugal game was the blockbuster match, garnering 18.2 million viewers on ESPN. This beat the second-most watched soccer game ever: The 1999 Women's World Cup final (USA vs. China) on ABC. (In soccer, the women's games are as thrilling as the men's.)

Run-of-the-mill, regular-season Sunday Night Football games average more than 20 million viewers; NFL playoff games get 30 to 40 million viewers; and this year's Super Bowl had 111.5 million viewers.

Remember when the media tried to foist British soccer star David Beckham and his permanently camera-ready wife on us a few years ago? Their arrival in America was heralded with 24-7 news coverage. That lasted about two days. Ratings tanked. No one cared.

If more "Americans" are watching soccer today, it's only because of the demographic switch effected by Teddy Kennedy's 1965 immigration law. I promise you: No American whose great-grandfather was born here is watching soccer. One can only hope that, in addition to learning English, these new Americans will drop their soccer fetish with time.

This is officially the point at which she crosses over into grotesque self-parody.

Simple, just imagine 10 penises laid end-to-end
