You justify every act from the left as okay, but deny the rights of those who follow the rules. Typical leftist mind games.
First of all i think you need to read the column again. She was scheduled to speak as far as i understand. I also don't think much shouting was involved.

And even so, how narrow are you to focus so much on manners? How are her manners more important than the crux of what she had to say to Mcain. Maybe her points were valid. How come Ann doesn't discuss that? Instead she tried to discredit the point of the speech by throwing mud on the reputation of the speaker. How sad is that?

"that girl is stupid, therefore her critique of Mcain is stupid and therefore we don't have to listen to it , or think about it, or respond to it. We just have to make sure we keep callin her a bitch"

Grreeeaaaaaaatt!

OK... So... A college student wrote a critical article about a senator...

This is news? Apparently our college students are slacking off. I wrote an article praising Newt Gingrich's immigration plan recently, so I suppose I am somewhat at fault... I will strive to be more critical from now on.

The point of the article is her bad manners and you keep excusing her for it. McCain was a gentleman. He served his country and was a prisoner of war. She has done nothing to serve her country. She is a student who has not even held a job yet. She knows nothing about nothing. She is an educated dummy with bad manners. That is the point of the article and you keep finding excuses for her. Maybe that is why you muslims never get anywhere. You keep finding excuses to not confront bad behavior and then you blame America for everything wrong in the world. Maybe you need to screw your head on straight and then take another look at the world you live in and take some self-responsibility for your own actions instead of blaming everyone else for the problems in the world.

Well, you have convinced me

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.

I agree with freedom of speech and democracy.

Here's a question: If you could have, would you have banned her from speaking?

I know you're not asking ME that question - but I'll answer it anyway.


No, I would NOT have banned her from speaking.

On the other hand, I probably would have just ignored the little attention whore. And I sure as heck wouldn't be calling her a "hero" for getting up and spouting off some hateful little rant.

She's like a spoiled brat that's throwing a temper tantrum. It's best to just ignore it.

Nope. You keep trying to stereotype me and you can't. Keep trying. Jefferson is right on. She aint no hero. She's a spoiled brat who thinks she is doing something courageous by mocking a person who fought for his country and was a POW. I am not a McCain fan, but he deserves my respect. She's an educated dummy brat. She's no different than a spoiled child at a grocery store throwing a fit because her mom wont buy her a candy bar at the checkout. Same thing.

Yeah guys let me spell it out for you. What i'm saying is that we SHOULD ignore her. She was not the most important thing about that event. Anybody with a brain can see that.

However, the fact the mr MCAIN got messed with like that IS big news. He is whom attention should be given.

However Ann Coulter doesn't seem to think that. She thought that stupid chick was the MOST IMPORTANT thing about the event. SHE makes a big deal out of her.

and THAT is precisely why i think the column is awful.

And dude alias... If you assume that i do everything i do because i'm a muslim you're a bigot.

You're a bigot. Your religion is bigoted. That makes you a bigot. Your religion is the one that makes women property, not mine. Your religion is the one that says to not make friends with Jews or Christians. Mine says to love your neighbor. Your religion is the one that slices people's heads off in the name of Allah. Your religion is the one that says I am not a complete human being until I accept Islam.
