    I don't see anything wrong with a little rabblerousing..
    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."

    For crying out loud, she's an entertainer! Does anyone really think she intends herself to be taken seriously? It's like Limbaugh, just for effect, for amusement.

    I remember the first time I heard Limbaugh on the car radio on one of my trips around the States. I thought it was great. I was driving through southern Colorado and listen to old Rush banging on. I stopped in at Cortez, Colo and bought his first book at a really nice cafe/bookshop there. I thought he was a hoot! I didn't and don't take him seriously and I'm sure he doesn't take himself seriously either, like Coulter. She's making a mint out of the existence of political stereotypes and political prejudices and she's using one while serving the other and she is raking in the big bucks. But I'm sure she doesn't expect anyone in politics to take her seriously. I mean I think she would be horrified if her views became policy.

    You mean she won't wear a burka when the religious conservatives get their way?
    A chance for a new beginning, like a dawn of reconciliation.

    She'd probably wear a scarf as a compromise

    I personally, am not a fan of verbally attacking people.

    An idea is an idea. Be it liberal or conservative.

    I disagree with ann tactics, the same way i disagree with michael moore's tactics, its not so much what they say, but how they say it.

    Mean people suck, but im sure both sides have some good ideas.

    However, i dont personally feel the need to spew hatred of any kind, and thats what america is reduced too

    You disagree, therefore you are the enemy and im allowed to hate you and do whatever it takes to destroy

    I wish we were a country that valued our differences enough to say, I disagree with you, but i will not attack your character, and i will fight for your right to express your beliefs and opinions.

    It's not so much that they take themselves seriously (though I think both she and Limbaugh are more self-important than you give them credit for), it's more that so many of their listeners take their word as gospel.

    That's a fair comment, I do remember being somewhat startled by the Dittoheads and they were apparently very serious in praising up old Rushbo. He did well though, he didn't snigger once. I have to give him kudos for self control.

    He has many who take him perfectly seriously and use his teachings to the voting booth with them.

    He tells untruths all the time and many of his listeners dont know this and refuse the real facts because they consider what he says the gospel truth.

    Nice....yep we're such sheep we'll believe anything.

    This coming from a person who can never find anything wrong with anything the democrates do or say.


    For the record, I used to listen to Rush. It's been a long time back though.

    The NY Times choked when they put Laura Ingraham's new book )Power for the People) at #1 on their bestseller list

    They will have a stroke when they have to put Ann's book in that slot
