Ann Coulter paragraph
Apparently, the Times' stylebook now requires all reports of violence anyplace within 1,000 miles of Iraq to be dated from Bush's speech declaring an end to "major combat" operations. How about dating everything from the number of months since Jayson Blair was fired or the number of years since Pinch Sulzberger got his SAT scores back and realized he wasn't going to Columbia?

This lady is such a gimmick it blows my mind.

1. In her tiny little mind that analogy makes sense.
Doesn't to anyone with over three functioning brain cells, though!

2. You are right
You would think with a law degree that she would have some sense!

3. I dunno.
Some of the stupidest people I've ever known had impressive academic credentials, and one of the smartest drove a truck. There's just no predicting it! :P

6. An IVY LEAGUE law degree at that!
Edited on Fri Sep-19-03 12:17 PM by Why
I do believe she went to Cornell, of all places, in fairly liberal Ithaca, NY. I also hear Ithacans hate her guts.

Anyhoo, if she can prove that violence within 1000 FEET of Iraq's borders has been dated by the NYT to "mission accomplished", "bring 'em on", or anything else, I'd like to see an URL.

She's just pissed off that she hasn't gotten any in NYC since Ronald Reagan farted during the 1987 State of the Union address. I'd be mad, too.

4. I'm still wondering how Ms. Coulter
manages to function in normal society. How does someone so clearly insane manage to get so much airtime? Is this like the Charles Manson thing? Is she so totally bonkers that we just can't help ourselves and watch her out of morbid curiousity?

7. I wonder if she has Aspergers Syndrome.
But I really don't want to give her a medical excuse for her behavior.

9. What exactly is Aspergers Syndrome?
I've wondered about that.

15. Well,
A. Qualitative impairment in social interaction, as manifested by at least two of the following:
1. marked impairments in the use of multiple nonverbal behaviors such as eye-to-eye gaze, facial expression, body postures, and gestures to regulate social interaction
2. failure to develop peer relationships appropriate to developmental level
3. a lack of spontaneous seeking to share enjoyment, interests, or achievements with other people (e.g. by a lack of showing, bringing, or pointing out objects of interest to other people)
4. lack of social or emotional reciprocity

Of course, she might just be attention-seeking and evil.

8. Indeed....
One of the most idiotic ppl on the face of the planet, yet impressive credentials indeed-- she actually got her BA from Cornell and law degree from the University of Michigan.

And it disgusts me to say that Coulter actually graduated with honors from Cornell since I'm a student here. Cornell and Ithaca are very liberal and ppl here do hate her and are embarassed with her trashy spew.

However, take comfort in the fact that Cornell hardly every lists her among the "notable graduates" list, heh heh.

11. Considering she's a drunk who crawls around on all fours'...
Edited on Fri Sep-19-03 05:41 PM by Patriot_Spear
It's amazing she stays sober long enough to write anything.

Since McCarthy is her hero, perhaps she's trying to imitate his excesses. Well, he died a drunk in his early fifties- here's hoping Manne Coulter is a fast learner!
