Besides... Zarqawi is dead... he is past hating. I wouldn't hate Coulter either if she was dead.

And as for Dems showing any indication of being more obsessed with Ann Coulter than commenting on Zarqawi, I'll just point to two Dem politicians who've made blustering statements about Ann but who have said nada publicly about Zarqawi, namely Hilary Clinton and Rahm Emmanuel. Seems to me those two have some priorities in life out of whack.
Originally Posted By Eric Paddon "I wouldn't hate Coulter either if she was dead." Tsk, tsk such warm sentiments of love and tolerance from the Left. I guess you'll suggest to Al Franken and Alec Baldwin that Ann be stoned to death like Alec suggested be done with Henry Hyde and those on the Impeachment committee against Bill Clinton, or killed as Al Franken demanded be done to Karl Rove on the Today Show to which Matt Lauer chuckled and laughed rather than spluttering with indignation like he did over Ann's books? All we're seeing in this uproar over Ann's book is how leftists believe they are exempt from criticism and that when it comes to the First Amendment right to respond to outrageous comments made by members in the ranks of the Left, conservatives evidently need not apply.

Originally Posted By RoadTrip <<I'll just point to two Dem politicians who've made blustering statements about Ann but who have said nada publicly about Zarqawi, namely Hilary Clinton >> You're wrong. <<June 8, 2006 Statement of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton on al Zarkawi "As a leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq, Abu Musab al Zarkawi was responsible for despicable attacks that claimed the lives of too many Iraqis and Americans. I saw firsthand the terrible consequences of Zarqawi's terrorist network when Bill, Chelsea and I visited the hotel ballroom in Amman, Jordan last November where Zarqawi's followers had detonated a bomb at a wedding party, killing and wounding innocent people. We owe our thanks to our men and women in uniform and others in Iraq who have been fighting Zarqawi and other insurgents and who are responsible for today's success. I hope that this will be a blow to the insurgency in Iraq and affords an opportunity for the new Iraqi government to build on this success and provide greater security and stability for the Iraqi people">>

I'd be fine if she just choked on her own bile.
Originally Posted By Eric Paddon Hilary had made no statement yesterday after she decided it was more important to go after Ann Coulter first. If she's done one since, it's nice she's finally getting with the picture, but as of yesterday when inquiries were made to her office, she hadn't done anything yet. Nice to see she's finally gotten with the big picture. But is Rahm Emmanuel going to spend time on the floor of the House with his priorities in order? I won't hold my breath waiting for that.

Originally Posted By Eric Paddon "Nah... I'd be fine if she just choked on her own bile." If that's what you think then that makes you a first class hypocrite to denounce her, since nowhere does Ann call for the deaths of the professional 9/11 widows. Indeed, all Ann does is note how conservatives have a right to stand up and respond to the garbage they spew when they accuse the President of being more responsible for 9/11 than the terrorists. But then again, hypocrisy is something that instinctively comes easy to the Left.

THIS is exactly what is wrong with our country, the media and politics today.
Originally Posted By jonvn I really don't think there's much of a defense to be made of her statements, and it makes those who defend her take on the cast of an extremist, as well. Hopefully soon these people will leave the republican party and it can go back to what it was. Which, while pretty much was out for the wealthy, wasn't the out of control extermist group we see these days.
