RoR: Forum

Listening to a theist hurl insuts at competeing religions is never humorous to me. Coulter is nothing but a wind-bag. Like most other pundits on both sides she is ignorant and rude. Yay.

I think she's extremely intelligent, and often hilarious. That isn't to say that I always agree with her, because I very often don't, but the fact that she's a Christian, and a member of the Christian Right, doesn't take anything away from the hard facts or any reasonable theories she forwards in her writing. The article this quote comes from is packed with verifiable actualities.

I'll agree that she can be a mixed bag, and I wish she was more consistent, but Coulter is far from ignorant in my view, and she's treated much more rudely than she ever dishes out, in my opinion.

Oh, and by the way Ethan, you misinterpreted the quote, which you could see from her piece if you had read it. She is not insulting jihadis. She is parodying the Left's description of Gitmo as a prison camp. It is no such thing. Indeed, it is a tax-funded luxury resort madrassah.

I love to read Coulter when she is attacking one of my pet peeves or hated persons, but when she and I are on opposite sides... Wow, the holes in her logic are like potholes in a poor county's secondary roads - giant bomb craters. I'm very selective in what I read of hers. She provides great metaphors and deliciously sharp, sarcastic turns of phrase for ammunition and just plain reading joy - when she is on the right side. But unlike many other political pundits, there is no value to be found when she is on the wrong side (except to see how bad an argument can be made when one substitutes clever attack phrases for sound reasoning.)

I'm sure it was a great place to stay Ted. Perhaps you'd care for a visit? Especially when a large number of those in there were handed over for US paid bounties and never did a damn thing to aid the Taliban or Al Qaeda. Bet they'll accept our appologies for being locked up for years. You wouldn't mind would you? Injustice is injustice, whether you like the person or not. Minimizing what happened because"some of those there were bad and the others might have been bad, is BS.

Well, let's see, from a rocky, snowy, louse infested hovel in Afghanistan where either your rivals or your own allies will eventually kill or execute you for some reason, where you have to scrounge for food, and where your best form of entertainment besides murder is buggery, to a free lifelong vacation at the beach with laundered clothes, three square meals daily, US health care, and where either attacking your guards or sodomy is the best form of entertainment, and a transfer to the beaches of Palau or the Bahamas is possible? Sounds relatively paradisic. The only thing most of these guys will be deprived of is hairless boyflesh. Are you under the impression that these were well-adjusted educated, happy metrosexual yuppies seized for no reasons off the bustling streets of cosmopolitan downtown Manhattan and treated, bizarrely, as if they had been found fighting out of uniform in a war zone, when they weren't? Sorry, these were syphilitic wifebeating sheepfucking Taliban war criminals dragged out of caves and deloused against their wills. Objectively, the best thing that ever happened to these "people" is to be captured by US forces. They declared war on us, and we have had the temerity to reply by providing them with all-expenses paid luxurious lifetime religious retreats at taxpayer expense. Oh, the horror.

Ted,

You are an ass.

To be imprisoned is the best thing that could happen to them? Sure, for those who were actually taliban. What if someone was hauled away from their family for years because someone who had a personal grudge against them turned them over for a bounty. Yes this really happened. Yes many of the Gitmo detainees had nothing to do with "War on us." Your post is full of gross biggotry and crap. You are ignorant and rude. My wife's cousin was one of the pilots of the 9/11 planes and she desn't misplace her anger or rage with biggotry against those who are not guilty.

LOL! Maybe Luke could suggest some jpg's for you to post now?

Being ignorant and antisocial isn't as much of a virtue as you think it is. I, like Luke, wish for an ignore button. Alas, I'll have to do it manually.

Ethan, since when is it necessary for me to specify, out of fear that you might chose to be offended, that when I enjoy the fact that the guilty suffer, I assume they are the guilty guilty, and not the framed guilty? Your concern for these many innocent framed sheepfuckers is touching. Maybe you could submit a profile of one of them for us. I have never come across the story of one, but I have heard of released detainees who have killed again. I don't advocate going to war to punish sheepfuckers who have only been framed as Taliban. I think your assumptions here speak volumes about you, not me. As for your connection to 9/11 through your sisters friend's whatever, I am simply awed. I only had actual coworkers and neighbors who died that day, and had dozens and dozens of funerals in my neighborhood, and a father whose office was hit by a plane that day, and my own office at 140 West street that was hit by debris and overlooked ground zero, so in deference to your touching sensitivity and superior victimhood, I will let you have the last word.

Sheepfuckers?

Ass.

Yeah, Ethan, wool-pulling, mutton-slapping, ewe-tupping sheepfuckers.

Oh come on Ethan, just introspect the actual emotional escalation here in which, yes, I have been quite content to goad you. Don't tell me you woke up in a snit today and decided to badmouth Ann Coulter because you knew clairvoyantly that as a rhetorical flourish I was going to use the term sheepfucker, (behind which I stand, no pun intended) and you were therefore just as mad as hell with her, and not going to take it any more. You reacted emotionally to seeing my very modest and relevant quote about Republican pacifism in the face of Democratic shenanigans not by agreeing with the message (as I did with your valid criticism of Coulter's absurd anti-Darwinism: "What Coulter's game is has got me." "Maybe she is a nut.") but by taking objection with the messenger herself. I like Coulter for the most part, but I didn't get offended at you. This really is about you and Ann and how she gets under your skin, not about me.

Oh, and although I myself have never fucked a sheep, I have lived with sheepfuckers (from Oaxaca, not Kabul) and will email you their names in private correspondence if you doubt me. Don't think I don't choose my words with care.

And I am waiting to hear the details about these specific named innocent framed Gitmo detainees.

Sorry, I did promise you the last word.

Ted,

I'm ignoring you, remember? What I will say is this: you have a computer and internet access, you can use google to make yourself less ignorant. It's not my job. If you don't and go around spouting your BS, it's going to reflect poorly on you, not me.

A picture is certainly worth a thousand words. It is not surprising that some errors might be made. The Islamic sheepfucker in this photo would certainly get past airport security with his disguise. Recognizing such vulnerability... demands tighter security measures.

Honest mistakes will be made in the best of security systems (not saying that's what we have). That said, we - the US taxpayer - are justifiably on the hook to fairly compensate anyone undeservedly incarcerated on our behalf.
