Excellent Piece on Foley

Good find, JJ. Glad to see Anne Coulter is back in form, and ripping at the pinko-Birkestockers moral relativism, and crass opportunism. I know, I know, it's like shooting fish in a barrel, but it still feel good for the soul.

I mostly clicked on it to confirm that Ann is shrill ass, but was pleasantly surprised by this rather fair appraisal of the situation.
I of course am waiting for her Hitchens moment.

Hitchens moment? As far as I know, she does not hit the bottle (not as much as the Hitch, anyways), so why would she do it?

Mr roT said...

A Hitchens moment is one in which my initial judgment is verified or reverified and runs counter to you extreme guys AI, AA.
You like Hitchens because he is rabidly against some of the same things you are and writes 'with passion'.
Ho Hum. After awhile don't you get suspicious of all this passion? If you believe in something then you should argue it, not holler it, and the NRO guys and Hitchens and Coulter do mostly that.
It doesn't mean they are wrong or stupid but after a short while I figure they have run out of reason and are going on gut (like a once any present interlocutor of our was won't to do, AI).
I was pleased that Coulter bothered to make sense here. She has been going on rage for years.

This is all that needs to be said:

If Republicans had decided to spy on Foley for sending overly friendly e-mails to pages, Democrats would have been screaming about a Republican witch hunt against gays. But if they don't, they're enabling a sexual predator.

Politics as usual.
