Al: you may want to re-think you're choice of metaphor here.

Here's a LITTLE BONE for you Coulter hatas.

That would definitely work. Now I just need Ann and Bill Press to agree to do the show under those terms and have a TV station give me a contract to write and co-produce it. Of course, someone else will probably just steal the idea and broadcast it say, six months or so from now, with different people, without compensating anyone who originally came up with the show idea. That's what always happens...

Ann is too skinny to fill out the shorts. Not enough junk in the trunk. If I were wardrobe designer for the show, I would suggest a wife beater and micro-mini skirt combo. And some really spiky heals, no stockings. Yeah, that would be alright.

Daisy Duke as second banana? No. I say they get Bill Press and make him always agree with Ann, and when he does he has to say, "Yes, Annie! Hahahahaha!" just like Ed McMahon did on the Tonight Show with Johnnie Carson. Plus, have them have Ann bop Press one, sound effects included, anytime he says something that's way liberal and out there. Although, to bring the Daisy Duke element to the show, they could have Ann wear Daisy Duke style shorts and t-shirt. Now that would get ratings. C'mon, I know there's a producer out there just dying to make this show a reality... ;)

Maybe Daisy Duke could be Coulter's second banana, her Ed McMahon.

That Daisy Duke was some fine Republican specimen.

well, coulter has no appeal for me. you all may think she's cute...but the smugness of her personality turns me off. but what do i know?..after all, i'm just a fuzzy-minded hate-america-first liberal.

Hmmm...she could have a show kind of like the O'Reilly Factor, but her guests get their a**es whipped and like it. Of course, O'Reilly only gets conservative fans, but it looks like Ann has a pretty bi-patisan crowd, for varying reasons. Ann, I think it's time you got your own show. No one deserves it more than you.

Coulter's sex appeal has never been about her being an extraordinary physical specimen. She's pretty cute, but technically kinda scrawny. Thing is, she's got a very strong force of personality. She's very forceful and combative- yet very fun loving. Plus, if you get out of line, she's liable to whip your ass- and make you like it.

You know, I never was really into Ann's physique, myself, but she does have a very sexy mind and a highly enjoyable wit. Given the response this post received, I think she should definitely consider making herself the first conservative omnimedia. How about it, Ann? She should at least have her own show, I say. MSNBC, CNN, FOX, are you listening?

Of course, compared to what passes for female in the GOP, she'd have to be considered a hotty in that camp. I mean, picture waking up to Old Lady Bush every morning! Yikes and double Yikes. Although, the Younger Bushies are kinda fine. But soon, all those years of hard living will have them looking as coke wrinkled as their pops.

You could argue over the definition of "traitor." Obviously this is a very harsh word that she uses. You might argue that she shouldn't use the term to describe all liberals. But then you could argue over how to apply the word "liberal." Nonetheless, she makes good points. A big portion of current liberals surely seem to be reflexively anti-American. She goes to this thinking case by case, column by column, and usually has a pretty fair case. How else reasonably to take it when, for example, US congressmen go to Iraq on the eve of war and suggest that they believe the words of Saddam Hussein over those of the US president? "Treason" sounds like just about the right word there. You could reasonably argue that she overgeneralizes, but really not by that much.

"Liberals relentlessly attack their own country, but we can't call them traitors, which they manifestly are." call this "skewering" if you like. i call it simple-minded and reductive. other might call it a lie.

You're completely changing arguments now, Mark. Actually, you're not changing arguments, in that you really haven't made one. I've never seen Ms. Coulter lie. She may sometimes overgeneralize, but I've seen very little from her that could reasonably be described as any kind of dishonest.

so when michael moore does it, it's "lying"...but when coulter does it it's "skewering". sure, you just keep tellin' yerself that. (ya,ya, there's no doubt she's easier on the eyes than moore...)

Definitely MUCH better looking at a distance. The TV close ups are downright frightening.

"Hate inflected bile" my ass. She's a happy warrior, and most effective. She works with a smile on her face, and joy radiating from her whole body. She has a GREAT time skewering her targets, and it is great fun to watch her work- even when I find myself in disagreement with her. Sorry all the commies and nicey-nice pansies don't like her, but too bad- so sad.

I never paid much attention to Martha Stewart, but I'd definitely pay good money to subscribe to Ann Coulter Living. That'd be HOT. Perhaps she could have a feature called "Bitch Slap of the Month" in which she slaps down a particularly deserving treasonous liberal.
