FSTV is Free Speech TV…an Independent news network that I’m lucky enough to get through the local Community Access station. I watched Loose Change today, and it is harrowing. I’m not sure which is most disturbing. The facts or the lemming-like refusal to accept the facts. The documentaries aired on FSTV are along the same lines, but some of them have taken one point or another, made in Loose Change, and scrutinized it more closely and even more convincingly. I’m heartened to hear that international organizations might be putting a case together to expose these atrocities and bring the perpetrators to justice. I’m not sure I like the idea of it slowing Obama down, but I sure hope something happens.

And people with middle names of Hussein, and dead 16-year old boys, and 911 widows, and oh let’s take a walk down Coulter-quote Memory Lane since Bonnie thinks commenting on the tackiness of the Bushes equates with Coulterisms: “[Bill Clinton] masturbates in the sinks.” Rivera Live, Aug. 2, 1999 “If you don’t hate Clinton and the people who keep him in office, you don’t love your country.” George, July 1999 “We’re now at the point that it’s beyond whether or not [Bill Clinton] is a horny hick. I really think it’s a question of his mental stability. He really could be a lunatic. I think it is a rational question for Americans to ask whether their president is insane.” Equal Time with Bill Mather “When contemplating college liberals, you really regret once again that John Walker is not getting the death penalty. We need to execute people like John Walker in order to physically intimidate liberals, by making them realize that they can be killed, too. Otherwise, they will turn out to be outright traitors.” address before the Conservative Political Action Conference, Jan. 2002 “The thing I like about Bush is I think he hates liberals.” as quoted in the Washington Post, Aug. 1, 2000 “Even Islamic terrorists don’t hate America like liberals do. Even Islamic terrorists don’t hate America like liberals do. They don’t have the energy. If they had that much energy, they’d have indoor plumbing by now.” Slander, p. 6 “Kwanzaa itself is a lunatic blend of schmaltzy ’60s rhetoric, black racism and Marxism. Indeed, the seven ‘principles’of Kwanzaa praise collectivism in every possible arena of life – economics, work, personality, even litter removal.” “I think we had enough laws about the turn-of-the-century. We don’t need any more.” Asked how far back would she go to repeal laws, she replied, “Well, before the New Deal … [The Emancipation Proclamation] would be a good start.” Politically Incorrect, May 7, 1997 Ann Coulter: I take the biblical idea. God gave us the earth. Democratic Strategist Peter Fenn: Oh, OK. Coulter: We have dominion over the plants, the animals, the trees. Fenn: This is a great idea. Coulter: God says, “Earth is yours. Take it. Rape it. It’s yours.” Fenn: Terrific. We’re Americans, so we should consume as much of the earth’s resources… Coulter: Yes! Yes. Fenn: … as fast as we possibly can. Coulter: As opposed to living like the Indians. Hannity and Colmes, June 22, 2001 “Anorexics never have boyfriends. … That’s one way to know you don’t have anorexia: if you have a boyfriend.” Politically Incorrect, July 21, 1997 “My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building.” as quoted in the New York Observer, Aug. 20, 2002 “I think [women] should be armed but should not [be allowed to] vote. No, they all have to give up their vote, not just, you know, the lady clapping and me. The problem with women voting — and your Communists will back me up on this — is that, you know, women have no capacity to understand how money is earned. They have a lot of ideas on how to spend it. And when they take these polls, it’s always more money on education, more money on child care, more money on day care.” Politically Incorrect, Feb. 26, 2001 “We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren’t punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That’s war. And this is war.” This Is War, Sept. 12, 2001 “People like you caused us to lose the war.” (to a disabled Vietnam Veteran) MSNBC “If Giuliani wants to have a national ambition, and I’m a big fan of his, he’s going to have to become pro-life if he wants to run for president. No one ever believed he was pro-choice anyway - he’s a Catholic from Queens,” she says, adding, “Americans understand that Manhattan is the Soviet Union.” — Ann Coulter, quoted in “All Smiles On GOP’s Right Wing”, CBSNews.com, Sept. 1, 2004 [Anti-war Democrats] know that the American people support defending America, unlike them. Their real feelings are coming out as much as they can right now, which is that they’re desperately dying to provide aid and support to al-Qaeda.” — Ann Coulter on WOR radio, September 21, 2002 Women like Pamela Harriman and Patricia Duff are basically Anna Nicole Smith from the waist down. Let’s just call it for what it is. They’re whores.” — Ann Coulter, Salon.com, November 16, 2000 “Let’s say I go out every night, I meet a guy and have sex with him. Good for me. I’m not married.” — Ann Coulter, Rivera Live, June 7, 2000 The swing voters? I like to refer to them as the idiot voters because they don’t have set philosophical principles. You’re either a liberal or you’re a conservative if you have an IQ above a toaster. ” — Ann Coulter, Beyond the News, FOX News Channel, June 4, 2000 “Clinton is in love with the erect penis.” — Ann Coulter, This Evening with Judith Regan,FOX News Channel, February 6, 2000 “[The] backbone of the Democratic Party [is a] typical fat, implacable welfare recipient” — Ann Coulter, syndicated column, October 29, 1999 “[Princess Diana’s] children knew she’s sleeping with all these men. That just seems to me, it’s the definition of ‘not a good mother.’ … Is everyone just saying here that it’s okay to ostentatiously have premarital sex in front of your children?…[Diana is] an ordinary, and pathetic, and confessional. I’ve never had bulimia! I’ve never had an affair! I’ve never had a divorce! So I don’t think she’s better than I am.” — Ann Coulter, MSNBC September 19, 1997 “If they have the one innocent person who has ever to be put to death this century out of over 7,000, you probably will get a good movie deal out of it.” — Ann Coulter, MSNBC July 27, 1997 “My libertarian friends are probably getting a little upset now but I think that’s because they never appreciate the benefits of local fascism.” — Ann Coulter, MSNBC, February 8, 1997 “The CoulterGeist August 1, 2002 By R. Porrofatto Ann Coulter, like others of her right-wing ilk, is a hate monger, pure and simple. The CoulterGeist lives and loves to hate, to froth, to rage against her enemies, to spew forth mindless belligerence and intellectual dishonesty, and the people she loves to hate most are her fellow Americans. She wants the rest of us to hate these Americans, too. Why? Because they are loathsome extremists, an evil “cabal,” a “cult,” the worst scum of humanity, and most importantly, they don’t agree with her. She calls them “liberals,” and it is a species which exists solely in what passes for her own mind. Sure, half a million more people voted for one of those liberals over what she calls our present “magnificent leader” but dear Ann hates them all. Hate, hate, hate. It’s because “her” liberals are traitors, you see, treasonous villains who want to destroy America. In her benighted Hassenlust, facts are beyond her ken, and she wouldn’t want them to interfere with her lunatic rage. It doesn’t matter that Ron Dellums, one of those “liberals” she excoriates for treason, is a decorated veteran of the Marine Corps. And who cares if Charles Rangel was decorated for valor in the Korean War or that George McGovern flew 35 bomber missions in WWII and earned a Distinguished Flying Cross for bravery under fire? It makes no difference that John Kerry won the Silver Star, a Bronze Star and three Purple Hearts, five more medals than the combined totals earned by George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Rush Limbaugh Dick Armey, Phil Gramm, Newt Gingrich, Tom Delay, and all the rest of the right-wing chicken hawks. Kerry and McGovern are liberal, and therefore they must be traitors to America. Of course, there are millions of other liberals who are combat veterans, firefighters, policemen, rescue workers, Red Cross volunteers, teachers, and so on. They are real Americans, patriots, and citizens. What they are not is shrill, puerile screamers who demonize their fellow citizens for cash and televised infamy. Unlike these “liberals,” what single positive contribution has Ann Coulter ever made to our society? Does she think that by making insane, inflammatory, malignant generalizations about a fictive political enemy she is doing good work? Does she believe that by spewing her evil animosity she is engaged in a patriotic act? An argument could be made that if she hates so many Americans as much as she does, perhaps she is the one who is disloyal, un-patriotic, and guilty of treason.”
