Elizabeth Edwards just made Ann Coulter look like the biggest piece of shit in the world.

[Fridays Child]

And Tweety is bludgeoning Ann, too. It's pretty amazing to behold. Eleizabeth very nicely asked Ann to stop her personal attacks, and Ann just sputtered like an idiotic bully. I almost felt bad for her. Nah, not even close. It was bee-yoo-tee-ful!

37. Woohoo Elizabeth! Good job!

:applause: I'll ask her for you if she'd like more pie ..... bwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwa! :rofl:

[The Wielding Truth]

2. ac makes herself look like that every time she speaks.

[MnFats]

5. yeah...i was about to say that it's not that difficult a task....

but people should do it more often

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. Annthrax IS the biggest piece of shit in the world.

Or, at least, she's a legitimate competitor for that title (I think Darth Cheney might have a bit of an edge).

[smoogatz]

40. Yep. 2nd biggest.

And that's saying something, given all the competition the RW-turd-machine keeps pinching off.

[driver8]

4. Why does Ann Coulter get any air time at all?

She is a hateful, vicious woman with nothing positive to say about anything.

I wouldn't piss on her if she was on fire...

[MADem]

8. Because GE, that owns NBC, makes billions off of the war. Billions. NT

[ddbaj]

6. In other words..

Same as always? :P

[burythehatchet]

7. OH, that must have been difficult

:eyes:

[HughBeaumont]

9. Elizabeth didn't need to put much effort forth to make that happen.

Ann is the king of strawmen, desperation tactics and loaded statements. Hate is all the asshole's got.

Love is the best water to put out that fire. Only the Kool-Aid IV'ers will side with Asshole on this one.

[politicasista]

10. Good for her!

:applause:

[flyarm]

11. I NEVER THOUGHT I COULD HATE SO MUCH..BUT I HATE THAT BITCH..SHE REALLY MAKES

ME FEEL RAGE INSIDE MY GUT!!

and to hear those young people behind her cheering...and laughing at her utter ugliness and nasty hatefulness...i really would like to gangster slap that filthy bitch!!

sorry but that is how angry she makes me..i really have rage in me listening to her!!

and i am not like that..

fly

[flyarm]

14. illegal aliens blah blah..why didn't tweety ask that bitch about her voting illegally in my state

and she has the damn nerve to say laws are not being followed by anybody????///

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i hate that fucking bitch!!

[DURHAM D]

12. Shame on Tweety for having Ann on the show.

But why not, Tweety lives a shame based life.

[muntrv]

13. Ann already is one, before Elizabeth called.

[Buzz Clik]

19. Exactly. All one has to do is say, "Look! There's a piece of shit."

[Buzz Clik]

16. If Tweety wasn't a despicable piece of shit, he would NEVER have Coulter on.

Coulter has zero credibility. I quit watching the video when she tried to pretend that Edwards was profiting from Coulter calling him a "faggot", when Elizabeth was referring to a comment uttered the day before the video linked above was made.

Why do we continue to validate Coulter's existence by paying any attention to her.

And, by the way, making Coulter cannot be made to look like a piece of shit -- you simply have to point it out.

[sutz12]

17. She didn't "make" her look like shit....she just pointed it out.

:)

[poverlay]

18. I can't wait to see it! n/t

[muntrv]

20. Remember "... we're all reacting here and putting on shit, we have nothing going ..."

This was the #8 item from this weeks "10 Conservative Idiots."

[DURHAM D]

21. I wish EE would call KO in about 20 minutes.

He could give her a forum and they could discuss Ann without Tweety running interference.

[Jade Fox]

22. Coulter goes right for the playing victim when she is cornered....

"She's telling me I can't talk, blah, blah, blah....." Even Tweety smacked her down on that.

It's a Neocon-creep tactic: Say awful, hateful things, then play the victim if anyone dares to object. Maybe that's starting to not work so well for Coulter et al. You can only call your ugliness a joke and whine about free speech for so long before everyone starts detecting a pattern.

[TahitiNut]

29. Misrepresenting what she's being told is a despicable tactic.

Sadly, we even see people doing that on DU. It's one of the more noxious displays of intellectual dishonesty that runs rampant in political discourse in this country, imho. Elizabeth was very clear in asking Coulter to lay off using the Edwards' son's death to make political hay and Coulter deliberately lied in claiming she was being asked to stop speaking. I personally find that tactic to be reprehensible and ethically bankrupt but it's not uncommon on DU, either.

[Toots]

31. Have you never been tempted?

I agree totally with you that the tactic is despicable and quite dishonest but like you say it is very commonplace, in the Media, politicians of both stripes, I even know of policemen that have done that. Deliberately misinterpret what is said or happening..I must admit I have even been guilty myself but I hate myself for it.

[TahitiNut]

33. Temptation is always a danger signal, imho.

Yes, of course I've been tempted ... and I've learned (and continue to learn) that such temptations when connected to feelings of frustration, anger, or other "un-centered" feelings are a signal. In a typically "60s" way, I've worked on the kind of self-awareness that I find necessary to "clean up my own house" -- a task I doubt I'll ever complete as long as I'm looking at grass from the green side. I sure can't claim to have mastered it, but I find that I do best when I resort to humor. It helps me get back on center. Sometimes DU is a real test of my resolve.

(Sorry about the "touchy-feelie" terms ... some folks aren't used to it. It doesn't work very well outside of a context of people with kindred experiences and pursuits.)

[Cronopio]

23. Roger Waters described Coulter (and her type) perfectly 35 years ago.

You've got to be crazy, you've got to have a real need.
You've got to sleep on your toes when you're on the street,
You've got to be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed.

Then moving in silently, downwind and out of sight,
You've got to strike when the moment is right without thinking.

And, after a while, you can work on points for style.
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake,
A certain look in the eye and an easy smile.
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to.
So that, when they turn their backs on you,
You'll get the chance to put the knife in.

You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder.
You know, it's going to get harder, harder and harder, as you get older.
Yeah, and in the end you'll pack up, fly down south, and hide your head in the sand.
Just another sad old tool, all alone, and dying of cancer.

And when you lose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown.
And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone.
And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around.
So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone,
Dragged down by the stone.




I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused.
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used.
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise.
If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this
maze?

Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend.
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner
And everything's done under the sun,
And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.

Who was born in a house full of pain.
Who was trained not to spit in the fan.
Who was told what to do by the man.
Who was broken by trained personnel.
Who was fitted with collar and chain.
Who was given a pat on the back.
Who was breaking away from the pack.
Who was only a stranger at home.
Who was ground down in the end.
Who was found dead on the phone.
Who was dragged down by the stone.

[Raine]

24. She's HATEFUL

I hope some day karma bites her on her ugly skinny pimply ass.

[Arkansas Granny]

25. Even with Elizabeth asking her to stop the personal attacks, Ann

tries to twist her words to make it sound as if Elizabeth wants her to stop speaking at all. She can't even argue her point without telling a lie.

[MrSlayer]

26. She really did come off as an ignorant asshole there.

It was obvious that Mrs. Edwards was not telling her to stop writing books, speaking on issues or earning a living and yet Coultergeist kept insisting that she was. She looked like an idiot.

[City Lights]

27. Hate is the only language she knows.

She really looked irritated that Matthews let EE call in. :rofl: She thought Chrissy was gonna give her a whole hour to spew her bile. Kudos to EE for sticking to the issue and remaining calm.

Even though Aqua Velva Ann made a ann of herself, I'm still pissed that MSNBC gave her a whole hour! Ugh!

[Glimmer of Hope]

28. Why does that trash get any air time? Elizabeth Edwards is intelligent and all class.

[durtee librul]

30. Ok, I watched the video link and first

even if I was partial to he-she's, I would have a problem with that dialogue. I am not a psychiatrist, and don't even play one on teebee, but annie's apple was bobbing quite well during that dialogue. She was terribly uneasy (all together now....awwwwwwwwwwww) thru the entire phone call and her actions of flipping her hair back, twisting in her chair told me everything I needed to know - and that is simply, she was being busted by a genteel loving wife and mother and the bat crazy bitch knew it.

And where in the f**k did she get that dress? Did she dye an old one of Monica's black? Talk about knobby knees (goes with the adam's apple I guess - most women get saggy tits to thier knees, she gets a saggy adam's apples to hers) and just an ugly person. She just thinks she is one sexy broad and I bet there ain't a man in Amurika who would take her (well, ok, Newtie would probably step up). She needs to dress like what she purports to be - a conservative. She looks, sounds and dresses like a cheap whore. (with apologies to any cheap whores out there)

[eridani]

43. The Adam's apple is a well-known side effect of bulimia

Much more likely than transsexuality, IMO.

[JerseygirlCT]

32. But why does he even give her a platform? Why invite her to

shill her hate? Why invite her to get the exposure she thrives on?

She needs to be ignored until she climbs back under the rock she came from.

[Oeditpus Rex]

34. I think we should all thank Coulter for her efforts over the years

She represents the Republics, or claims to — yet even they don't want her because of the dreadful image she casts on their party.

When Republics can be made to look even worse than they are, we should thank those who engineer it.

I say let her talk all she wants.

:evilgrin:

[MrsMatt]

35. You say that like it's an unusual occurance. nt

[JNelson6563]

36. Coulter's body language was screaming!

Man did she start shifting in her seat and flipping her hair around! Obsessively! haha Great to see her squirm like a worm.

:toast: Kudos to EE for maintaining her composure!

[cwydro]

38. AGREED!

Was going to post a thread. Thanks for doing it for me! Ann was completely outclassed, and KNEW it.

FANtastic!

At this point, I'm sorry, most people have caught on to BushCo, the ones who didn't are the lowest of the low.

41. It was outstanding nt

[Zomby Woof]

42. Ann Coulter makes herself look like one

She needs no help from Elizabeth Edwards, who was absolutely spot-on target and beautiful.

We love you, EE!
