Waiting for the Sarah Palin condemnation of Coulter for this comment... In all seriousness, things like this embody everything that is wrong with modern politics. Link to comment

knapplc Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 There will be very little uproar here over this because I think everyone agrees that she's a fringe, ultra-extreme voice. She's the anti-Keith Olbermann. Nobody cares what these windbags say. Link to comment

JJ Husker Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 These people make a very good living by being over the top in their comments. Coulter, Hannity, Limbaugh, Olbermann, Matthews, Maddow, Maher, etc. You can't get too caught up in HOW they present their arguments but, make no mistake, often times they have a good point behind their crass and bombastic approach. That being said, calling the President a "retard" is extremely juvenile and contributes nothing to the discourse. Link to comment
knapplc Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 often times they have a good point behind their crass and bombastic approach Perhaps, but I'm not playing Blind Man's Bluff through hours of derp from these people to find that good point. And those same points are made, for conservatives, liberals and actual Americans, by people with far less nonsense involved. There is not only no reason for anyone to have to sit through the hate they spew, it's embarrassing that anyone does. Link to comment
Mike Mcdee Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 These people are entertainment personalities. They are putting on a show and don't believe the derp they peddle. I'm just sad that people don't know this fact. Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Anne Colter needs to just go away and do something else. I absolutely can not stand that woman. Link to comment

That being said, calling the President a "retard" is extremely juvenile and contributes nothing to the discourse. These people make their living being "over the top" because a segment of society absorbs what they are putting forth. The mantra is not to get the story correct, but to say it the loudest and in the most crass manner. If Hannity repeats the phrase "Obama is a socialist" or "Obama is the most divisive president ever" enough, he knows his audience will take it as truth. The problem is honestly less with Coulter and Maher, and more with people who say "oh well, what do we expect from them?" and keep consuming the crap they spew. Again, this is everything that is wrong with modern politics. 2 Link to comment

Every single one of them are pathetic and actually a threat to this country due to their misinformation they put out. 2 Link to comment
Vizsla1 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I love Ann coulter- but she crossed waaaaay over the line this time. Maybe her account was hacked (doubtful). It is ok for the liberaltards to call Bush Hitler and to mock Sarah Palin's daughter, but i thought Ann had a little more creativeness in her use of the English language than those people Link to comment
knapplc Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I love Ann coulter Why? - but she crossed waaaaay over the line this time. There has been worse said by other people of her ilk, but that doesn't excuse this. Maybe her account was hacked (doubtful). I can't believe you even said this. She's used "retard" in her tweets more than once. It is ok for the liberaltards to call Bush Hitler and to mock Sarah Palin's daughter, No. No it is not. And when those idiots do, they're called out on it. but i thought Ann had a little more creativeness in her use of the English language than those people She does not, and she has made a career of proving that she doesn't. I'm surprised that you think so. Link to comment
