Our columnist Ann Coulter responds to some of her liberal critics today in her column (now located in the newly relocated columnist section).
Liberals hate Ann Coulter because:
(A) She’s brilliant
(B) She’s American
(C) She’s a conservative Republican
(D) She believes in God
(E) She’s attractive
(F) She’s pro-life
(G) She’s well educated
(H) She’s onto the liberals and understands them like few others
(I) Her thoughts are leaking out into society unchecked by liberals
Liberals in Canada hate her because of all of the above, plus she’s here and she likes our site.
Here’s a snippet of her latest column, called “It’s only funny until someone loses a pie”.
Liberals enjoy claiming that they are intellectuals, thrilled to engage in a battle of wits. This, they believe, distinguishes them from conservatives, who are religious fanatics who react with impotent rage to opposing ideas. As one liberal, Jonathan Chait, put the cliche in the New Republic: Bush is an “instinctive anti-intellectual” and his administration hostile to “fact-driven debate.” In a favorable contrast, Clinton is “the former Rhodes scholar who relished academic debates.” Showing his usual reverence for fact-checking, the New York Times’ Paul Krugman says the Republican Party is “dominated by people who believe truth should be determined by revelation, not research.”
I’m not sure how these descriptions square with the fact that liberals keep responding to conservative ideas by throwing food. (Remember the good old days when liberals’ “fact-driven” ideas only meant throwing money at their problems?)
Last October, two liberals responded to my speech at the University of Arizona — during question and answer, no less — by charging the stage and throwing two pies at me from a few yards away. Fortunately for me, liberals not only argue like liberals, they also throw like girls.
