We're all SO afraid of offending anyone and calling Democratics on the carpet for what they say about us. Paul Krugman, Molly Ivins, Maureen Dowd, most recently Bill Maher, the Dems themselves. Do we fire back? No. Was Coulter out of line? Slightly, in that, if this was a Dem, they would have waved it off as just a joke, which is exactly what it was! C'mon, people, grow some 'nads! <BR/><BR/>1:51 PM <BR/><BR/>Here is the thing anon it would be one thing if Coulter said this at one of her college speeches(in my opinion it would still be wrong) but at least it would be less publicized and probably the audience would be more appropriate for such language. Ann chose to say this at a highly publicized, very important conservative meeting. Ms. Coulter should have shown more respect to those on the dais and her audience. There is a time and place for potty mouth humor she chose poorly.<BR/><BR/>Think for a second if AL Franken had said this word at some liberal conference you would be rightfully outraged. We as conservatives cant claim to be outraged when people like Byrd use terms like "white Ni%$ers" and then turn a blind eye when one of our own uses an equally distasteful word. Wrong is wrong no matter who is guilty and we shouldn't try to defend something so clearly offensive as the use of that word. This is what makes us different (better)from liberals we stand on principle before party.<BR/><BR/>markAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31832838.post-31117956580900651482007-03-05T14:45:00.000-05:002007-03-05T14:45:00.000-05:00[ANONYMOUS 2 SAID]:This is the problem with conser...[ANONYMOUS 2 SAID]:<BR/><BR/>This is the problem with conservatism today.

C'mon, people, grow some 'nads!<BR/><BR/>===============================<BR/><BR/>You are part of the reason that this story is going to have such a lasting legacy, because you refuse to see what is or should be right in front of your own eyes.<BR/><BR/>Let's play a game:<BR/><BR/>Let's replace "faggot" with "kike, "nigger," "spic," "wop," or "chink".<BR/><BR/>Do you think such epithets are approrpriate to use at at major political gathering - or at the corner Starbucks?<BR/><BR/>If so, then you are no conservative, let alone libertarian. You are, rather, a bigot, and a liability to any group you belong to that wants to gain traction with normal Americans.<BR/><BR/>It is the left that thrives on segregating people into groups based on skin color, class, nationality, religion, etc., and playing them off one another to empower and entrench themselves. It is the (true) conservatives and libertarians who insist that all people should be treated exactly equally in the eyes of the law.<BR/><BR/>The left thrives on making the most outlandish, offensive and divisive statements, because they know the MSM will ignore it all.<BR/><BR/>If you think this is merely "payback" from Coultergeist for whatever you think are the misdeeds of the left, you need professional help - soon.<BR/><BR/>Seriously. Get help.<BR/><BR/>.JonQuixotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08165358036471500386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31832838.post-28496620263566350752007-03-05T14:37:00.000-05:002007-03-05T14:37:00.000-05:00[ANONYMOUS 1 SAID]CPAC is not just stupid, it endo...[ANONYMOUS 1 SAID]<BR/><BR/>CPAC is not just stupid, it endorses this type of filth.

Although I'm glad that Giuliani, Romney and McCain came out soon after and denounced Coulter, I was very disappointed (but admittedly not surprised) that CPAC has yet to issue a statement as well.<BR/><BR/>The left is replete with some of the most hateful, incendiary, bigoted, racist and America-bashing diatribes known to exist. I've tried to document some of them here at JQWorld.<BR/><BR/>Yet their protectors in the MSM and academia have been eminently successful at ignoring all that, while giving the most off-the-charts lunatics therein the secular equivalent of the Catholics' absolution.<BR/><BR/>And I predict this fiasco is going to prove to have very, very long legs as they say in the media.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your comment.JonQuixotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08165358036471500386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31832838.post-26912602310368000952007-03-04T13:31:00.000-05:002007-03-04T13:31:00.000-05:00jon,I totally agree with your assesment.

Coulter needs to be given a "time out" for a year or two by the conservative media she all too often ends up being the story while important conservative issues are swept under the rug. Its a shame because I think Ms. Coulter is smart and she could add something to the debate but she clearly needs to learn how to tone it down a notch or two.<BR/><BR/>markAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
