3. Her pic on the cover reminds one of Sharon Stone in 'Basic Instinct'.....
except in Coulter's case, it would be more like 'Basic In-skank'

4. If you're not a subscriber
you will get a pop up window but you can just ignore that and look down to the left for the poll and vote anyway. The question, which you can't see all of, is "Does Ann Coulter make a positive contribution to American political culture?"
Blech!

19. It had been about 5 years since I've read Time Magazine
And the other day I was looking at one and they were talking about what an excellent job Condolezza Rice had done in her new job. That was just one horrible example, but it was obvious they had really turned into a right wing mag over the years that I didn't read.

40. Perhaps their demographic has turned to the right
I just signed up for Time because my son was selling subscriptions for his school. Haven't read the magazine as I get my news long before the week is out and reading a newsweekly is just overkill. Maybe this is the problem they're having and so they pick controversial nuts to be on the cover so they sell more issues.

20. How Does This Happen
Edited on Mon Apr-18-05 09:30 AM by erpowers
How in the hell does Ann Coulter get on the cover of Time? Two of this womens books have been proven to be pure BS and lies.

21. Another thing I don't get
Edited on Mon Apr-18-05 09:33 AM by rniel
Michael Moore is treated as bad by the right as Ann Coulter is by the left and you can't compare anything he's done to what she's done.

Michael Moore says: Bush is a bad president, people are dying and we should vote him out

Ann Coulter says: We should execute all liberals

See the difference.

Yet michael moore is SATAN!!! to the media and Ann Coulter is an angel.

27. since it's TIME, I nominate this for greatest--Coulter just attack dog
Maybe a greyhound.

She is a lot of what is wrong with the conservatives. Instead of debating issues honestly, her stuff is 99% personal attacks. When she does cite facts, they are usually wrong, like when she famously tried to convince a Canadian journalist (on camera) that Canada sent troops to Vietnam. He told her she was wrong and she wouldn't back down. Or the time when she said we should forcibly convert all Muslims to Christianity like we did to Japan and Germany after WWII (Japan is still about 1% Christian and Germany was already Christian).

32. Why didn't Time just put used toilet paper on the cover?
For the love of Mike, they put a McCarthyism defender and outright ignoramus on the cover. The only thing Coulter has done is parlay her connections and willingness to throw bombs into a place among the right-wing courtesans in this society. Is that enough metaphors for you?

Definitely a day of shame for Time. :mad:

Yup, she's fearless like "her" war-dodging "fighter pilot" "President."

45. I just got my Time
My husband read the article and found it totally disgusting. So, I tore off the front cover and the article and along with a letter telling them to cancel my subcription because I am going to subcribe to the Nation, am returning it to Time, telling them I cannot have this bigotry in my home.
