What's silly is how YOU made the mistake, and then you criticized ME for correctly interpreting what you ACTUALLY posted.
This would have been nothing if you hadn't griped about whether or not I realized it was Sarge who gave that statement.

All I did was explain why I thought it was you who made the statement.
You could have just said, "Oh. I understand why you would think that." and move on.
But you just have to keep whining...

No. I didn't ignore that.
That was PART OF MY ARGUMENT.
He pointed out how crappy Michael Moore was, and he also compared Ann Coulter as being ON PAR with Michael Moore.

I didn't "ignore" that.
It was PART OF MY POINT.

I've already responded to these points, and you said nothing about my response...

1) Comparing the LOOKS of two authors??? After he admits they are similar???
That's like saying Earl is as stupid as Cletus, and then pretending that comments on which one looks "purtier" somehow gives one more credibility...

2) "much more believable". Like I said, I refer you to Dylan's comments which you are still avoiding.

3) I don't believe Michael Moore has ever claimed to be poor.
The fact that he's not poor is irrelevant.
Why is it relevant?

Funny that everyone else had no problem with it except you. Are you challenged in your comprehension skills? Looks like it. And you're still whining about it.

Michael Moore: Not Really From Flint?
From the best-selling Michael Moore Is A Big Fat Stupid White Man:

Throughout his career, Moore has portrayed himself as a Flint native whose consciousness is shaped by the city's industrial experiences. "Ben [Hamper] and I both grew up in Flint, Michigan, the sons of factory workers," he writes in the introduction of Hamper's book Rivethead. Roger & Me constantly hearkens back to Moore's life in Flint. His speaker's bureau describes him as "born in Flint," his web site calls him a "Flint native," and his production company's web site informs us that "Michael Moore was born in Flint, Michigan, where his father and most of his relatives worked in the automobile factories…." Asked to describe the source of his empathy for the worker, Moore told People's Weekly World that "I think it's just the function of growing up in Flint, Michigan." These claims are reflected in almost every biography: Moore is described as "a Flint native," "the man from Flint," or as hailing from his "hometown of Flint."

In fact, Moore was born and raised in Davison, Michigan, and attended Davison High School. While Davison is near Flint, proximity doesn't translate to similarity between the two towns. Davison is the wealthy, white "bedroom town" of the area, largely inhabited by management, not labor. Davison's median household income is one and a half times that of Flint's, and its median house value is just over twice that of Flint's. Davison's 2000 unemployment rate was a minuscule 4.6 percent, a third that of Flint's, and its poverty rate was half the national average. Davison is also lily-white to a staggering degree: African-Americans make up only one-half of one percent of its population.

Dude. I comprehend what Sarge is saying just fine.
He's putting Ann Coulter on par with Michael Moore. He said it explicitly, and you have difficulty getting that.

I realize that you'll still defend Ann no matter what happens. You'll defend Ann as you avoid numerous arguments pointing out how pathetic of a liar she is.

And you'll keep running from the majority of arguments pointing out what type of person she truly is...
You love her because she mirrors your hate.

If I had to spend the night with either Ann Coulter or Michael Moore, there's NO question which one I'd choose. She might kill me and eat me afterwards, but I'd die happy.

Even YOU would probably have to agree that I'd have made the right choice between Coulter and Moore!

LOL. Hate? You mean it's wrong to dislike people who undermine America's war effort. It's hate to confront people when they are racist and liars? You are confused. She tells it like it is and you can't handle that. Like Jack Nicholson said in that movie......."you can't handle the truth".

I would hope she would sexually abuse me real nice before she killed me.

There's one thing we know for sure about Coulter and Moore......one takes a bath and one doesn't.

Her fallicious and untrue arguments are reinforced with the protection that she tells her readers exactly how people with sense and logic will respond to her incorrect statements, and therefore she is seemingly invincible. You don't think she designs her statements and arguments to withstand criticism with "slight-of-hand" replies? She was a lawyer, you know.

Although, I'm sure none of this ever crossed your mind.
But it don't take much to get me by
So just booze me up and get me high

It's stupid to "dislike" people because they don't share your opinion on the war.
Not everybody is going to have your opinion on the war effort. Cope, or get therapy.

ANN COULTER's lies have been pointed out on these message boards.

You're a broken record, only capable of meaningless phrases.
You can't handle people pointing out her lies.
You can't handle the truth, as you don't even comprehend what it is. You keep spouting the same b.s. without even bothering to realize that you made it all up...

I guess it just depends on which side you butter your bread. In my opinion, she nails it often. But,that's just me. I like pickled pigs feet also, but no one else I know does.
