ann coulter is pretty

Ann Coulter: Because evolution is the official state religion. Although it is possible to believe in God and evolution, it is not possible to not believe in God without believing in evolution -- otherwise, atheists have no explanation for why we are here. Thus, it's very important for the liberal clergy to force small school children to believe in a discredited mystery religion from the 19th century -- evolution -- in order to prepare them to believe in the nonexistence of God, one of the main goals of the American public education system.

from the column that Donut posted over on the 6/6/6 thread:

In my rich fantasy life I envision her being kidnapped and taken on tour with Deicide, where they make her work the T-shirt and sticker table.

This image makes my day, with her set up at the table next between the pizza hut stand and elevators that go to the luxury suites, scowling and wearing a black tshirt. She spends the next 3 hours alternating between arguing with some 14 year over which $25 shirt to buy, and sitting there bored, idly doodling on the legal pad they gave her to track sold merch and playing with her laminate.

"C'mon, cmon', kid, which shirt do ya want?"

she takes a 15 min break to go buy a $4 Edy's Ice Cream before returning to rearrange what stickers are left. Her 32 oz diet coke is running perilously low, but the guys at the pizza hut stand refuse to take her order.

when the band plays smaller venues, she has to argue with the sound guy to give her one of his extra pair of earplugs. the inside of the club is so humid that the duct tape isn't adhering to the walls, so the tshirts keep falling down.

this too does not please her

Video of Coulter with Matt Lauer this morning. Unbelievably, she's even more despicable than usual. The end of the interview is especially uncomfortable, there is no applause and there are some audible boos from the studio audience.

Until I saw that Today show thing, i would have sworn that most of her bullshit was an act to rile the dumbshits and sell books. But she may indeed be a bigger cunt than I gave her credit for.

― DAVE, for #1 Hits of yesterday and today! (dave225.3), Wednesday, 7 June 2006 14:12 (seventeen years ago) link

she seemed very non-television on that Today piece - is she usually 'better' when she isn't being asked 'difficult' questions (which she is nevertheless allowed to wriggle out of)?

― i am not a nugget (stevie), Wednesday, 7 June 2006 14:39 (seventeen years ago) link

I didn't see it but her strength on television is an inhuman ability to not get flustered, ever, no matter how outrageously heated the conversation gets, which it always does - she just flounces around the conversation with a supercilious, above-it-all manner that lets her laugh everything off - which is exactly the kind of attitude honed and perfected at those elite northeastern schools like Choate and Philips-Exeter and Harvard that she says represents everything wrong with American liberalism

― Tracey Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 7 June 2006 14:52 (seventeen years ago) link

and the responses are rolling in, both from the 9/11 families and Kathy Griffin later that same broadcast.

still, she's getting attention, so she wins.

but she seems flustered in this one - that's my curiosity. is she under heavy pressure re: that voting scandal going on at the moment?

It looked like she was maybe a little too coked up, tbh.

The thing is, if anything of hers I've read--articles and book excerpts so maybe they aren't representative--is something to go on, she's a hideous piss poor writer. She really is only hit and miss with being at all clever, and she never makes any kind of interesting or thoughtful point. And I've never 100% bought that she was completely faking her beliefs; I just figured she was amping them up for the cameras, but I'm not really that sure now with how bitten-crazy she seemed on the Today show (especially compared with the tiny clip they showed from just a year ago of her and Lauer!).

But really, the fact that she is a terrible writer is really the cardinal sin here. I'd rather read an anthology of the absolute worst, belligerent, being-a-dick-for-the-sake-of-it stuff that Momus and ethan have posted on this board than read her book, because at least they're witty. She makes racist frat boy jokes and it's somehow clever because she's a girl. I've defended her before because, only watching her on tv, it seemed she was having a joke, being funny, and she came off that way from time to time, but having read more of her stuff--what in the holy hell? Who decided to publish her in the first place?

― Allyzay Rofflesbot (allyzay), Wednesday, 7 June 2006 22:51 (seventeen years ago) link

This is the second time today I've felt that I'm kind of wasting my time posting such a thing HERE, like there's no one to convince on this board of my point because it's almost a universal truth around these parts, but seriously just how much longer is Ann Coulter going to get by on being a "hot chick" retelling Rush Limbaugh's ancient jokes in an XTREME VICE MAGAZINE Y2K style?

I mean, judging by the Today show clip, not much longer cos she's totally losing her mind (it's almost as if she wrote the book back when Bush's numbers were much higher and is now worried the tide has also turned against HER ilk, imagine...), but--how does it go?--you never go broke underestimating Americans and what they are willing to spend money on?

why is there a stupid praying mantis image stuck to this thread and how do I get rid of it. Its preventing me from reading stuff.

it's attached to one of Jon's posts, if you set it so you only see the last 50 posts in the thread, the image will go away because it has scrolled off the screen, but more than that and I think it's still there.
