Usually, I find a little more than half of what Ms. Coulter says is pertinent or decidedly factual. This time, I was pleasantly surprised to find I agreed with just about all her points and anecdotes. Ms. Coulter is a very opinionated conservative Republican, so the article may not be to everyone's taste.
Have you tried listening to her with the TV muted, and some sensual music in the background? Much easier than either of the other two options.

While I generally consider Ann Coulter to be one of those people who give conservatives a bad reputation, I have to say that here she hits it right on the mark. I especially love how she defended D&D in her article and used the 1980's "D&D scare" to illustrate how people like to lump individuals into catagories and try to get to the "root cause" of a murder. Whether it is the military, D&D, adult entertainment, or something else, the tendency of people in our society tends to try and find some outside influnce that causes people to be criminals rather than facing the fact that people who commit crimes have made a choice. Lots of people live in the same circumstances don't become criminals and the only difference between the two are the choices they make.
The personal digs against single mothers hurt her systemic reflections on single motherhood. But I like it when she talks D&D to me with her hair swept over her face like that.

Stating that "children need two parents" and that "children have a fundamental human right to an opportunity and relationship with both their mother and father", members of the fathers’ rights movement call for greater equality in parental responsibility following separation and divorce. They call for laws creating a rebuttable presumption of 50/50 shared custody after divorce or separation, so that children would spend equal time with each parent unless there were reasons against it. They point to studies showing that children in shared custody settings are better adjusted and have fewer social problems such as low academic achievement, crime, pregnancy, substance abuse, depression and suicide, and state that shared parenting is in fact in the best interests of the child.wiki
...and they state that family courts are biased against fathers and shared custody. They state that the outcome of divorce is overly one-sided, divorce is initiated by mothers in more than two-thirds of cases - especially when children are involved, and that divorce provides advantages for women, such as automatic custody of the children and financial benefits in the form of child support payments.
...I knew I'd find a way to pin the blame on the government.
Ann Coulter has been replaced with an impersonator. Either that, or she's been several people all along.
Funny stuff. However, Rollins really doesn't have a lot of room to talk when he calls someone "psycho".

You do know Ann Coulter's really a man right?
Check out the adam's apple. Dead Giveaway.

I always thought she did her best work while starring in the title role of Tim Burton's "Corpse Bride".
you know its funny, I have custody of my kids and my ex-wife is supposed to pay me child support, not that I ever see a dime.
Women are rarely ever punished for being dead beat moms. However, they'll throw a guy in jail in a heartbeat if he doesn't pay. I hope in the future there will be some form of equity. The current system is so anti-male it isn't even funny.

On the other hand, my sister has called the police where she lives on her husband for domestic violence several times with no results. However, he called and had her arrested for pushing him, and now she is facing jail time. Also, my wife's best friend just had a judge grant temporary custody of her son to her ex-husband, even though he was in jail for abusing their daughter at the time of the hearing.
Ann coulter...a republican who feels she needs to peddle her "attractiveness" (wow, blonde must = attractive in the republican world) in order to peddle her pablum.

I've asked myself that several times, but I think ultimately she is worried about what people will say. She is 30 years old and this is her fourth marriage. She has a tendency to pick real winners too. :(

Sorry to hear that. My sister was the same way when she was younger. Some girls love the bad boy.

Possibly, but since a lunatic has such a skewered view towards everything, they themselves usually don't understand the difference between normalcy and craziness. I wouldn't trust Charles Manson's opinion on another person's mental stability.

C'mon. This is so unfair. The governor of Alaska? The Asian chick pundit?
EDIT: On the human front, sorry to hear about David's and CJ's family difficulties. Hang in there guys.

I would.
Chucky is a prime example of a "negative indicator". Anyone he likes should automatically be suspect.Rollins, much like Herr Schlacten-Fueher Coulter, is a "positive indicator". Anyone they accuse of being extremist whackjobs almost certainly are, otherwise they would not inspire such jealousy as to provoke the charge.
Let's face it, when was the last time you heard Coulter accuse someone of being "too darned moderate"?

Pardon moi...the thread is about ANN the JACKBULL Coulter....
Don't get me started on other topics here...let's stay focused!!!!
You need ask no pardon--if anything, I do, with my constant efforts to make the subject something else. Maybe I should ask pardon. I probably won't, though. I probably won't stay focused either. As a matter of fact, if gentlemen prefer brunettes, then I've given myself a problem. Why aren't I a republican? I guess I still have Obama girl. Whew, safe. But just barely--she's not a pundit.

Oh don't worry I have been happily remarried for most of the last year and the ex only sees the kids about once a week. Plus I make more more money then she ever did, well I can hold a job longer then 6 months so that helps.

The fact that she lost custody she must have been a real whack job.

Hmmm...
My, admittedly anecdotal, experience with watching kids in this situation (a couple of friends when I was growing up) seemed to highlight problems with this.Essentially it worked, after a fashion, when the children where very young but kind of broke down as they got older because the child become a kind of human basket ball. Two weeks at one home and then two weeks at another. Their lives are completely unstable. Instead of having two homes its more like they don't have a home at all. Every two weeks the rules and expectations morph and what is needed for school work etc. gets left at one house while the child moves to the new house.
Certainly no adult would put up with having to move every two weeks and I have a hard time seeing how this is much better for a pre-teen or young teenager.
Generally I feel its better to have it so that one parent gets the kids during the week while the other parent gets the kids on the weekend. Still not a perfect solution, especially later on when the kids consider hanging out with their parents second best to going to the dentist and several orders of magnitude below spending Friday and Saturday hanging out with friends but this still seems like a less flawed system then child as human basketball. Sure its unfair to both parents because one has to take care of the kids a lot more then the other and both parents will be complaining that they don't get to have quality time with their kids (one parent because s/he sees the children significantly less while the other complains that they only see the children during the hectic week and never on the more relaxed weekend but my feeling is the design should be whats best for the children and not whats 'fair' for the adults.

Rollins and I don't see eye to eye on much in the political arena, but I always do enjoy listening to him. He's one of the few celebrity types who I actually believe THINKS about his POV before spouting off.
So, Mr, Weiss, yeah, I agree, he's earned the right to call it like he sees it.

I do find it funny how intolerant he is while demanding that Ann Coulter learn to be more tolerant.

I agree that he has every right to state his opinion. However, you can't trust the judgment of mentally ill people. That's the point I was making.
I'll remember this for when I need defending.

Yeah, well, I think mostly it's 'cause I'm a Black Flag/Rollins Band fan, so I cut him some slack, knowing his style. Same goes for Jello Biafra, can't stand his politics, but at least he seems to think about what he's saying instead of just going off on an uninformed rant (read: Sean Penn).
I find Ann Coulter entertaining in the same way. Socially, she's way too conservative for my tastes, but she is funny in a acerbic harridan kind of way.

I know I'm going to get flak for this, but, vis a vis Sam and politics: while his delivery isn't exactly "sunshine and daffodils", dude is spot on much of the time...

Nonsense. In like every book ever, the crazy, foaming at the mouth, straitjacketed, babbling lunatic always speaks the truth, while all the other characters are totally oblivious. When a crazy person talks, you better listen.
At least in books.

Sorry, I don't understand German. What is Schlacten-Fueher? I know what Fueher means but I don't understand what the two words together is supposed to imply.
My conjugation is likely off, but:
Slaughter-LeaderAnn Coulter's "response" to learning that Bin Laden was in Afghanistan was to write an article calling for the extermination of all adults there, and the forced conversion of all minors to Christianity.
Accuse me of a lot, but that is beyond my standards.
