Haha did you see the commercials that showed a guy driving his car into a brick wall over and over?

Al Franken is probably intelligent, but Coulter went to Cornell, was editor of the LR at UMich, clerked for the Court of Appeals, and now just generally makes more sense. I'll take Ann, any day. Ask Al Franken about how Air America is doing, oh wait, America could give a damn about liberal talk radio.

I actually listen to conservative radio just as much as liberal radio (which isn't very much), but only because I like laughing at the crazy ass conservatives. They seem to have more radical views and say stupid things more often.

Anyway Ann Coulter is just a media whore.

She's a smart, rich, mediawhore.

Cornell is a safety school! :p

Why is South Florida such a clusterf--k?

Are we talking about the same Cooter here? Because nothing she says ever makes sense. It's all sensationalist bullshit. Also, I know you've got it in for 'hurrr lie-berals' but can we give the arch-nemesis on the political spectrum spiel a rest. Please?

Al Franken went to Harvard. Did that stop being a good school?

You should hope not, otherwise you may have to transfer.

True. Of course, he went to Harvard, so that pretty much means they both should have some smarts.

again true, but as you'll see, there can be more than a little bit of crazy in that.

True.

Hahahahaha! That's good. That's like saying a babbling chimpanzee makes more sense than a babbling gorilla.

They're both media whores who add little of value to public discourse.

Harvard is a good school, but I think Coulter's resume is a little more accomplished. Franken is a celebrity in a political pundit's costume.

What makes Coulter anything more than a celebrity in a political pundit's costume? Sometimes called a mediawhore.

shinerbock 11-03-2006 12:28 PM

She's got quite a resume, check it out. Its on wikipedia, always the reliable source.

She's a man in a celebrity costume in a political pundit costume. Nothing he says is of any value whatsoever.

shinerbock 11-03-2006 12:40 PM

She's great.

OK, I looked at both resumes on the always reliable source.

One graduated Cum Laude from Harvard, one from Cornell.

From there the paths are different but have some similarities. One went to law, one to entertainment. Both are authors. Both are described as "pundits."

In my opinion, both are now "entertainers."
