But Bill O'Reilly isn't alone in being a "Culture Warrior", look at Ann Coulter. This is a chick who gets applause and national attention for calling people "Fags."
Regardless, "she sells books", good enough reason for MSNBC to spend a full hour with her tomorrow. "It's gunna hot." I can assure you I won't be watching, but I can only imagine the sh!t storm she is going to cause. She will probably say hateful things about "liberals" or maybe she will tell the MSNBC audience that the best way to get freedom is to convert Muslims to Christianity. It doesn't matter what she says, "she sells books."
Anyway, if I spend another moment thinking about Ann Coulter I will probably start to dry heave. So without further ado, here is Henry Rollins. "A Love Letter Ann Coulter" (transcript)
Coulter's hate impact does reach Canada, I insist that you watch this 40 minute documentary from the CBC program "the Fifth Estate".
CBC Documentary describing the liberal and conservative influence on the American media.

1. Ann Coulter is the most ignornt human being on the planet. I am a strong liberal, but i have conservative friends & i respect them, but i have no respect for Ann Coulter. She is not a conservative, she is plain out biased hater! Thank God on hardball Elizabeth Edwards called in to ask her to stop personal attacks on liberals and stick with debating the issues. Elizabeth goes on saying that making comments such as "Hillary's chubby legs" and " Lewinski being fat so why would bill want her", and making comments about Edwards being killed in a terrorist attack. Coulter uses stupid attackes against liberals instead of stating the facts. I have no problem with people who want to debate but she goes too far and is classless. God, i just want to rant on and on after seeing her on hardball, i absolutely hate her!

2. Ann would be a perfect match for Fire Marshall Bill......Jim Carey's character. Next to him she would look normal and constructive. They could take turns saying "Let me show ya sompthin!" while rabbling on about improbable scenarios, destroying everything in sight, and pretending to be helpful. Yes, the Queen of the Damned and Fire Marshall Bill would lay waste everything and everyone they touched...but only the Fire Marshall would be funny doing it...because he's a ridiculous, over-the-top character designed for comedy. Ann is also ridiculous and over-the-top....but neither she, or anyone else, seems to know what purpose she serves in the world.

3. Ms. Coulter remains the epitome of a true conservative lady. While being verbally attacked by Elizabeth Edwards this afternoon, Ann stayed true to form.
I couldn't help but notice that even at her age, Ann still looks very smart in her regulation black cocktail dress and cha-cha heels.

4. Pure Evil!!! Nothing but hate!!!
Why do humans have this monster on their shows???
It needs to go into a dark cave and stay there!!!
In my opinion it is an insult to humanity and to conservatives and I am no fan of that club, but they do not deserve this creep to be a part of their group or any other group on this earth!!

5. I think the whole Liberal Conservative thing is ridiculous. I refuse to believe that there are that many sane rational thinking people exclusively in either camp. I think most intelligent people understand that life is a little more complex then left right bullshit and see that following either mindlessly like a sheep is not the wisest move. I think most of us are Liberal on some issues Conservative on others and sick of the extremist on either side who want to cripple reasoning with their own versions of Political Correctness and yes the right is even more guilty on that count then the left is in my opinion. I agree with both on some issues and disagree with both on others. Like a lot of people I think I'm starting to get a lot more sick of the noise from the right but still concede they make a few good points. I say we scrap following either exclusively and give critical thinking a shot..Following either ideology blindly is a sure path to disaster. Balance good... I agree that Bill O'Reilly is a great reason to throw away your television but then how would you be able to watch Henry Rollins? Or Bill Maher? It is not all bad. Why not throw away Bill O'Reilly instead? On top of Ann Coulter..

6. I am a liberal. Every time Ann Coulter gets a wide audience, she creates more liberals. I love having her on national television. There is a study out today that more and more younger people are choosing to align themselves with liberal candidates and policies. Every Ann Coulter "joke" (I think Scooby-Doo re-runs are funnier, wittier, and show more intelligence) recruits money and people to progressive causes.
She is a sad and aging exhibitionist. I think, I mean this completely, that she will do porn when she can no longer get attention. Only a non-entity like Chris Matthews would let her rave unchallenged, but I stopped watching him years ago. And before that, I never missed Hardball.

7. My what a pithy response to Ann Coulter. It's absolutely amazing how one can be nauseated by Ann Coulter's humor ( I mean she is a political satirist) and condemn her without having read any of her books. Yet, fall down laughing at the adolescent, tasteless "Humor" of Henry "Tatoo Boy" Rollins. I suggest that after watching the evolution of the internet over the past 10 years that you return to academia and get your GED.

8. ^ hatred is not funny. By supporting Ann Coulter you support hatred. I don't need to read her book because what she says herself says more about he kind of person she is that a book that has no doubt been censored by the publisher. All she does is talk of non-relevant points and spew forth hate. Just the title of her book is an insult to me. I am a liberal and I believe in God and pray and all that. It is she who is godless. Only someone who is working for the devil could soread the hate she has.
