Coulter (HooBoy!)REPUBLICANS, BLOGGERS AND GAYS, OH MY!

[underpants]

Okay I can only post four paragraphs but IT begins by trumpeting the successes of right-wing blogs and then discrediting left wing blogs en masse.

The part about Larry King, Rivera, and Blitzer is straight off the right-wing talking points (I've heard them on hate radio). The part about Clinton and Kerry is almost funnier than it is sad. She must have gotten near the end and needed more words to fulfill her contract stipulations.

In response to the public disgrace and ruin of New York Times editor Howell Raines, CBS anchor Dan Rather and CNN news director Eason Jordan, liberals are directing their fury at the blogs. Once derided as people sitting around their living rooms in pajamas, now obscure writers for unknown Web sites are coming under more intensive background checks than CIA (news - web sites) agents.


But Dowd was talking about two different passes without telling her readers (a process now known in journalism schools as "Dowdification"). Gannon didn't have a permanent pass; he had only a daily pass. Almost anyone can get a daily pass -- even famed Times fantasist Maureen Dowd could have gotten one of those. A daily pass and a permanent pass are altogether different animals. The entire linchpin of Dowd's column was a lie. (And I'm sure the Times' public editor will get right on Dowd's deception.)

Any day now, Matthews will devote entire shows to exposing Larry Zeigler, Gerald Riviera and Michael Weiner -- aka Larry King, Geraldo Rivera and Matthews' former MSNBC colleague Michael Savage. As a newspaper reporter, Wolf Blitzer has written under the names Ze'ev Blitzer and Ze'ev Barak. The greatest essayist of modern times was Eric Blair, aka George Orwell. The worst essayist of modern times is "TRB" of The New Republic.

Democrats in Congress actually demanded that an independent prosecutor investigate how Gannon got into White House press conferences while writing under an invented name. How did Gary Hartpence, Billy Blythe and John Kohn (Gary Hart, Bill Clinton (news - web sites) and John Kerry (news - web sites)) run for president under invented names? Admittedly, these men were not reporters for the prestigious "Talon News" service; they were merely Democrats running for president.

1. Where to start with this??

Gannon didn't write about gays. No "hypocrisy" is being exposed. Liberals' hateful, frothing-at-the-mouth campaign against Gannon consists solely of their claim that he is gay.

Can we have some links to all his anti-gay articles?


She also says his only offense is that he may be gay. Ummm.... no Ann... he is a prostitute that may very well have ties to the administration. He falsified reports to bring down a state senator. He may have outed a CIA agent.

If the sides were flipped this story would overpower the Jacko molesting the Pope on his death bed.

3. It also seems that Gannon is trying to use the "privacy" thing

just like mANN is trying to lambast Randi Rhodes for doing. Hey she mentioned Randi in an article and didn't even need to explain who Randi is---SCORE!!!

2. That "person" is in need of psychiatric help.

4. She HAS to have a literary sugar daddy

there is no way she would be hired for her writing. All over the place.

BTW- that Dowd op-ed seems to have really struck a nerve with the right.

5. Dowd is the enemy. She is smarter, better looking and commands

the respect of her peers. What better reasons to hate somebody?

6. Ann's had some work done (or her picture has). The good news:

blonds will go the way of the Siber Toothed Tiger. The bad news: we have to wait 200 years.

7. Awe Darn! Looked at her picture again and she isn't even blond.
