Atrios: MOCK THEM INTO THE GROUND

[scottxyz]

If Crossfire opened every show with "and look what that crazy bitch said today," followed by a shot of Paul and James laughing their asses off, Ann Coulter would be the leggiest assistant corporate attorney in Accounts Recieving right now.

We need to LAUGH at the idiots! Rebutting them only encourages them (and bores the viewers).

There's so much material here to MAKE FUN OF. O'Reilly and Hannity are FUN because they get down and dirty - why are we holding back and being polite and deferential and boring? LAUGH AT THE IDIOTS and the whole country will laugh with you - rebut them and you will be looked as a WONK.

1. There is no defense against ridicule.

It reaches into all parts of the brain and is very effective.

2. I like Al Franken's treatment of Ann Coulter

in "Lying Liars": "There's something wrong with her."

Every time her name comes up, someone says, "There's something wrong with her."

3. That is priceless!

4. I totally agree

You can only laugh at these guys (and I'd others like David LImbaugh and Ben Shapiro and Walter E. WIlliams and so on and so forth). Occasionally they will have an argument you can refute but that's pretty rare. And occasionlly it's valuable to look at their underlying assumptions.

5. they are funny ugly little warped children aren't they?

I keep imagining being at a family picnic with my evil nephew-in-law who has Turretts, AND is evil. What do you do when he just blurts out "niggerniggerniggernigger!" in the middle of my global family and then sneers at you when he thinks nobody's looking?

You laugh. What the hell else can you do with something that transparent? Then he gets angry and escalates, and finally explodes into a temper tantrum. Nobody even gets embarrassed about it anymore. If you laugh at Ann often enough, you can even say "oh isn't she JUST PRECIOUS", her head will literally blow right off her shoulders.

I'll take her on in an interview and see how many outrageous things we can get her to say if you promise to have a drinking game going and take pictures.

6. Wes Clark Has It! He Just Gives Them His Patented Knock Em' Dead

laugh then proceeds to ignore them and go on with what HE wants to say...


and he occassionally does the Alpha Male smackdown.... :)

7. He's right. We should also be pitting the End Time Republicans against

the Oldtime Republicans. Make the Oldtimers distance themselves from the crazy EndTimers.

8. Franken did a hilarious parody of O'Lielly today..based on a statement

that O'Lielly made about what he did with his "unit" when under fire. Franken played O'Lielly's words, and then a caller who asked him point blank if he had ever really been in the service. O'Lielly told the caller to shove it.
