Ann Coulter Interview

Sep 21

Posted by Kevin Murphy in National Politics | No Comments

I’m not a fan of Ann Coulter’s an insult too far style of attention getting, but I did find this interview funny:

FB: Sexual harassment is a big issue in certain industries such as politics and the modeling business. Do you think people who trade sexual favors really get ahead?
AC: It seems to have worked for Hillary.FB: You are a brilliant self made and accomplished woman. Would you ever date a model?
AC: Is the model a Republican?

FB: Which is the Bigger Disaster… a) Britney Spears at the VMAs… b) The New York Times.
AC: At least there’s hope for Britney.

The comments would be even more funny if they weren’t such a sad commentary on the current state of political discourse.

I’m just going to post this every time Ann Coulter comes up:

The problem with Ann Coulter is that whenever she makes some good points she discredits them with terrible hyperbole and insult. Her problem isn’t uncommon in partisans who are forever overreaching, but far too often she misses provocative and lands squarely in revolting.

The problem with Ann Coulter is that whenever she makes some good points she discredits them with terrible hyperbole and insult. Her problem isn’t uncommon in partisans who are forever overreaching, but far too often she misses provocative and land squarely in revolting. For instance, Confederate Yankee is able to make the point she was trying to make without any insult: “The point, of course, was simply this: personal tragedy does not bestow omnipotence upon the bereaved.” I would add that the greater the demonstration of bereavement, the greater the compromise of wisdom and perspective, but then I come from the stoic Midwest.
