  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Does anyone listen to Ann Coulter anymore?

Soundly refuted the criticism? Really? You already admitted that Ann was wrong when she said the NYT ignored Dale Earnheardts death for 2 days. You also claimed that because Katie Couric misquoted someone claiming that Reagan was "an airhead" instead of "an apparent airhead" that meant that Katie thought that Reagan was an airhead. Nice piece of logic there. The rest of the accusations against Ann went ignored by you.

Furthermore, you were silent when we presented quotes from Ann when she supported the invasion and forced conversion of "some" muslim countries to Christianity and that "Canada should be lucky we allow it to exist on our continent". How do these attitudes mesh with "do unto others as you would have them do unto you"? Or don't you really care.

From my perspective, Ann (and vicariously you) took a drubbing in this thread. But that's just my opinion. I'm sure that others have formed their own.

I soundly refuted the criticism against Ann until I got bored with it since the response was never to acknowledge or refute my refutation, but rather to merely shift gears and copy n' paste another story from a hate Ann Coulter web site. Anybody notice how much hate comes from the allegedly tolerant left?
How hateful of those people to point out how hateful Ann's frequent hateful comments are.

I would consider it to be satire (very funny satire actually)

Oh some new form of satire that doesn't actually contain, you know, humor?
Do you believe she means it when she says it?
Don't you?

So she didn't say it, but if she did, she was only kidding?

Wait, so now it's satire when Coulter jokes about terrorists flying planes into the NY times building (a tasteless joke at best), but it's horribly racist when a cartoon version of Rice happens to have larger than normal lips (even though said lips were actually supposed to be a beak)?

Of course it's racist. Can you really not see the difference?

I'm not going to go into why I think it's not racist, it's completely off topic. But what Coulter is saying is the equivalent of me saying "Gee, I wish the tsunami had hit France instead." It's tasteless, crude, uncalled for, and disgraces the memory of all the people killed.

Actually, it's the same as me saying that. Probably the equivalent for you is saying "Gee, I wish the tsunami had hit the RNC convention, or some totally scarlet red state."

I think Ann is hilarious. But then, I think Glenn Beck is too. I guess I just find sarcasm humorous.

ahh good old tumor humor! I've heard some stuff that would make a maggot gag, and it helps people to keep on going, sometimes it's either be funny or start screaming and never stop. :sigh:

You're conveniently telling a half truth

Another half truth. You need to read my posts more thoroughly or you need to more accurately quote me.

The rest of the accusations against Ann went ignored by you.
I told you I got bored with it because after soundly drubbing the criticism of Ann, nobody ever responded with a rebuttal, but rather another copy n' paste fronm a hate Ann Coulter website. You guys got bested deal with it. Nobody wins em all, well, except me maybe

What? Just because she retracted her error in a future book doesn't mean she wasn't wrong. Right?

Again, no.

LOL true Grizz, I thought about unsubscribing but I just couldn't bring myself to do it.

I think I will need a 12 step program once this thread is really dead and gone. ;)

Sometimes the only thing you can do is laugh. You should hear some reallyshocking jokes in hospitals for example. To people on the outside, they would certainly be considered in poor taste.

The same thing happens in the police, military, and other occupations where death is commonplace.
Gallows humor relieves tension.
