But one has to say, knowing Coulter has her trap wired shut on top of a fighting chance Wubya will be out of office before he can destroy the world, this makes one feel hopeful..

Of course you didn’t say anything like that, dingdong – but someone else did.

I addressed my utterly uncharitable remarks to you as something of an homage, since I, too, am intensely irritated by the gratuitous use of “one” as a third-person stand-in for what should be a simple first-person pronoun.

One is sorry for the confusion. One is, however, enjoying the opportunity to call you a dingdong.

Sincerely,
A. M. Ivins

I guess I could draw other conclusions from his statement, but they’d be far less charitable.

So now I’m even more confused.

Yes, it isn’t.

Why don’t you tell this to Ms. Coulter? With her jaw wired shut, she’d be unable to talk back about the godless liberals destroying the country.

Treat others as you wish to be, reap what you sow, blah blah blah

Ooooh, ouch. Pomposity overload.

I agree that the National Review is good stuff, generally speaking, but even they’re out of bed when it comes to science. Whether it’s because, as Christopher Buckley said, Republicans have become anti-intellectual since Ronald Reagan’s presidency or because the National Review doesn’t have knowledgeable science, energy, and environment journalists on staff I couldn’t say.

For a perspective of what and how the right thinks, you ought to check this out. Some good essays.

No, one couldn’t say that. Not if one had any interest at all in factual accuracy. Could one say that about some people there? Absolutely. If you’re looking for people who lack perspective, that’s not a bad place to start. But all? No, that just proves that you only read the freak wing.

And it’s Kos, not Koz.

Interesting note….I’m surprised how the left hasn’t jumped all over Obama for bowing to Wall Street with his picks.

This also tells me about your reading habits. The progressive wing of the Dem party has been pretty unhappy with how unprogressive his picks have been, and they’ve been quite vocal about it. They haven’t been surprised by this – he’s turning out to be what they thought he was all along.

Which is why we’ve been laughing our asses off for months now at how his detractors were trying to portray him as the second coming of Lenin.

Interesting note….I’m surprised how the left hasn’t jumped all over Obama for bowing to Wall Street with his picks. He’s surprised me with the centrist positions he has taken regarding things financial. I note the brilliance of his “Lowering the expectations of what he can accomplish” campaign. He’s a better politician than Clinton ever was.

There are bad people in the world, people who will make the world better by departing. Ann Coulter is very high on the list.

If breaking her jaw proves there is a god, then should she ever read this, her screams of outrage that someone suggested she’d do something like this would be the music of the heavens.

Anything else I can do for you, let me know.
