Coulter on Cindy vs. George
I admit it, she makes me laugh: I've been waiting all week for Ann Coulter's column to appear, something told me she wouldn't be able to resist commenting on Cindy Sheehan either. And she does it with a bang, as always (for her larger bangs, see this). Her jargon is her value and her political punches can be overlooked if you are so inclined. She is called scary, genial, freaky and brilliant at the same time. So how could we not take notice? Money Quote:
On Dowd's 'Moral Authority':
The Punch I Will Remember:
Call me old-fashioned, but a grief-stricken war mother shouldn't have her own full-time PR flack. After your third profile on "Entertainment Tonight," you're no longer a grieving mom; you're a C-list celebrity trolling for a book deal or a reality show.
On Dowd's 'Moral Authority':
The logical, intellectual and ethical shortcomings of such a statement are staggering. If one dead son means no one can win an argument with you, how about two dead sons? What if the person arguing with you is a mother who also lost a son in Iraq and she's pro-war? Do we decide the winner with a coin toss? Or do we see if there's a woman out there who lost two children in Iraq and see what she thinks about the war?
The Punch I Will Remember:
Sheehan has called President Bush "that filth-spewer and warmonger." She says "America has been killing people on this continent since it was started" and "the killing has gone on unabated for over 200 years." She calls the U.S. government a "morally repugnant system" and says, "This country is not worth dying for."
Evidently, however, there are some things worth killing for. Sheehan recently said she only seemed calm "because if I started hitting something, I wouldn't stop 'til it was dead." It's a wonder Bush won't meet with her.
