Pardon the serious nature of my last post and allow me to step up onto the soapbox for a moment.
Where have I been hiding all these years? Why am I just now privy to the Conservative lunacy of Ann Coulter? It all started with the innocent perusal of the non-fiction section at my local library. Politics. Well, I’m not interested in reading the laws that make this great nation (supposedly) work, but am interested in what people say in response to these laws.
Ann Coulter is just the type of person who makes me violent. And they wonder why people like me are for gun control? You make us violent, all you Ann Coulters. It’s for your own good. It’s ironic that the very people who spent a billion dollars on a media-watch program cannot fathom how their glib and outrageously misinformed public statements might be [mis]construed. Do we, the collective public, assume they’re being light-hearted and congenial? When Coulter says that “…They [Canada] better hope the United States doesn’t roll over one night and crush them. They are lucky we allow them to exist on the same continent.”? This, coming from the mouth of the woman who discredits 9/11 widows of money-grubbing usury. This, coming from the mouth of a woman who kisses Conservative, Saudi sand-powdered bung-holio on a daily basis. Slick lips, that one has.
I tire of the moral high ground vs. [in]tolerant debate. Why do people feel it’s necessary to tell you what they believe, but not nicely? When did it become popular to be the funniest-meanest kid on the block? Call me crazy, but I always hoped and prayed for the day the neighbourhood bullies fell and skinned their knees. In like fashion, I don’t think I’d shed a tear if Coulter tripped on her Conservative-funded-fascist-Manolo’s and bloodied her chin, which, incidentally, fits nicely in the crack of Sean Hannity’s ass.

I think I glitched a little laugh there at the end.
mmhrm, that coulter lady, i know what you’re talking about. in other news, i like canada a lot and i think americans are funny and kind of weird when they say things about canadians being weird/boring or things about america rolling over and crushing canada, blah blah blah. it makes me think that they don’t know any real canadians. this is a good midnightish comment.
Manolo’s? Drew, you fashion plate… hehehe.
Yes, jelousy is an ugly thing. Obviously Ann should be pitied. Her severe case of Canuck-Envy is getting the better of her. She should just give into the call of the maple, grab a beaver pelt and mush her way on North. Cause we know that all Americans secretly want to be Canadian. who wouldn’t?
She needs a little more of this:
Be gracious in your speech. The goal is to bring out the best in others in a conversation, not put them down, not cut them out. Colossians 4.6
this is your blog afterall, and one would hope that one can say what one feels and be honest. of course, as i have done so, it’s not without consequence. it’s just a matter of, “am i willing to face the consequences……” i don’t mind someone disagreeing, as you have done so, let’s say, but at the same time, i think that there is a way to disagree without being nasty. so, if you need to say something, then say it.
p.s. this is why i cherish a best friend and look forward to having a mate someday….. having someone with which i can really be honest is very healthy for me. sometimes, though, the only person that you can really talk to is God.
I’m dreading the results of tonight’s election in the U.S.
I haven’t read any of her works…and now I don’t want to!! Seth and I want to have you and Nathan over for dinner in the next 2 weeks. We want you gusy to meet our new family members Mokie and Roxy!
don’t worry, andrew. i know that not many, if not just one person, would understand what my post was referring to. it’s ok. you’re still smart even if you didn’t figure it out. your brain can stop hurting now.
I had a huge argument with a friend last night basically because she felt the need to share her opinion with me. The sad thing was she opened the conversation with questions that suggested genuine concern. When I opened up, she blasted me! What’s wrong with people?
i always thought matt lewis was the funniest mean kid.
drew ive been trying to call you its been too long we need to talk alots going here i need some drew wisedom
what’s sad is people listen to people like her, and assume she speaks for everyone…like when they interview Pat Robertson or Jerry Fallwell on behalf of all Christians….makes me sick in my stomach!
