Canada should be glad we let them share our continent...

If it had been just a clip on faux news it would have been funny. Please explain to me how these wing nuts get on TV anyways - the sadder part is that some people will watch this a drink this up - its truly sad that the state of journalism and commentary today has been reduced to such tripe.

I have no idea how this gets on TV... you're right, truly sad.

Whew, Jess. When I read the title, you were about to be the very first person to suffer my virtual wrath. Off to watch the video, although I have a feeling this is a clip off CNN from the time that Dubya visited our northern skies a couple of weeks ago. Am I right?

No, it's not. And never fear, I love Canada!!!

I feel like grabbing some soap and scrubbing the trees outside my window, because Bush's visit has dirtied this beautiful country of Canada.

*jaw drop* WHO in the F*CK is this WOMAN???? Wow, I'm actually ANGRY right now! Is this Fox News in a nutshell?? I'm totally appalled, and I've only watched the first half of this clip!


*bowing down to the U.S. for allowing us to share your continent*

Hey, girly, watch the clip. Miss Ann Coulter ain't a big fan of the Frenchies either.

Is this the woman that you guys have been bitching about from day one? What other bon mots has she come up with?

[BlueWizard]

Technically, it's our continent, because Canada was claimed first (and hey, it's the Americans who revolted against royal rule). So the U.S. owes us centuries in unpaid taxes.

Except the US would CRUSH Canada...

Yeah, didn't you watch? You'd all die if you didn't have our nuclear forcefield around you!!

Ann Coulter is now not only the most obnoxious woman on the planet, but she has taken the lead as the person I am most ashamed to say is a citizen of the USA.

Thank you Priest. I didn't know who this woman was that you folks were talking about during the election, but if these are the typical kinds of comments that she makes - well, you can surely understand why folks like that give America a bad rap.

(jmac, I can't believe you're a Republican still. *shaking head sadly*)


ETA: Is this dude really expecting to have any credibility dressed in a red bow tie? Raj, is that you?

ETA also: These folks seem to be under the misguided impression that Canada hasn't been attacked solely because of US protection. Nothing again you good folks in the States, but this isn't the case. We haven't been attacked yet because we stay neutral and try to mediate the situation, and we don't piss off other countries with our ethnocentricity and arrogance. (No offense to you citizens - I blame your government, not you.)

That's because our government isn't made up of war-mongering loony-bins.

[Jess1483]

Posted: 12/8/04 at 11:36pm

Yeah, I can't handle her. Oh, and that reminds me, I'm sure many of you read Al Franken's book, "Lies and the lying liars who tell them"?

His second chapter: Ann Coulter: Nutcase
His third: You know who I don't like? Ann Coulter

And I ain't a fan of Tucker Carlson either.

He sometimes makes semi-valid arguments, but he now loses all credibility in my book.

Nice, I'll be sure to find it and check it out! This woman, and Tucker Carlson...grr...the smirks. It's the smirks. Amongst other things.

Bow tie guy! He forever lost any semblence of dignity he had in the first place when Jon Stewart reamed him out on his own show. Ah, good times.

[Jess1483]

Posted: 12/8/04 at 11:42pm

That was amazing Plum! The first time I'd watched TV in a month and that's the first thing I saw!

Anyway, to my paper. Seriously, if I post again tonight, yell.

My computer won't play the clip, but if it's the clip of Ann Coulter on Hannity & Colmes she is exactly right in what she says.

[Plum]

Posted: 12/9/04 at 12:02am

Oh, Gothy. You become more respectable by the hour, really.

[jmaclover]

Posted: 12/9/04 at 12:02am

Meh, I can't believe you still love in Canada...

I can't see it.....someone else have another link?

I think this one links to the clips, otherwise there's a few excerpts transcribed on the site.
