Larry is going to have the 9/11 widows on tonight to respond to Ann

[MSgt213]

but they are leading the story as this is a debate between the left and right? Is that true? Are the 9/11 widows speaking for the left or themselves? I think they are speaking for themselves not as some left wing zealots. If Ann is speaking for the right, well they can fucking have her, but I wouldn't call this a debate unless the 9/11 widows can debate among themselves while Ann calls them names from the sidelines pretening she is adding anything at all of value to a conversation.

1. The fallacy here is that you must be "fair and balanced"...

Can you imagine any scenario 30 years ago where a ideological psycho like Coulter would be allowed "equal time" with rational people?

8. My God, KGator, you took the thought right out of my head

The other day I said to a friend that thirty years ago, this woman would have would never been taken seriously, or get the forum she's gotten.

I grieve for the America that was...

2. I assume you mean Larry King?

Dobbs ought to have them on as well, as should any of the asshat shows that allowed her to spew her vile spiel.

[MSgt213]

3. Yes Larry King and by the way he's the only one so far I have seen have

them on. I could be wrong have you seen since the bitch was able to let loose on show after show. Sorry for the bitch term, but I can't stand that woman and I think I'm selling real honest to goodness bitches short by calling her one.

4. See, this is proving Coulter's point

In her twisted world view, any attention given the 9/11 widows validates her claim that they are enjoying being lionized by the librul media.

9. And that proves what we all know about Ann "the man" Coulter...

That she is bouncing off the wall BATSHIT crazy.

5. To answer your question

No, I don't believe the 9/11 Widows known as the Jersey Girls are speaking for the left.

Their most vocal member, Kristen Breitweiser, is actually a Republican who voted for Bush in 2000. And when she announced her support for Kerry/Edwards in 2004, she told Mary Jacoby of Salon.com that didn't mean she was switching parties. She said "I'm not a Democrat!"

And that is precisely why Ann Coulter is not only morally reprehensible, but FACTUALLY WRONG, when she says the Jersey Girls are an example of "the left's doctrine of infallability."

Their most vocal member is a Republican.

6. Well thank you I didn't know that and CNN of course won't share that info

with any of their viewers. Bunch of Asshats.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

7. Perhaps the ladies themselves will

It will only make their argument stronger that their sole motivation was to spare others from the horror they went through.

[journalist3072]

10. No need to thank me, and you are exactly right

Not only will Ann Coulter not tell you that Kristen Breitweiser is a Republican, but the media won't as well (with a few exeptions).

I have been talking about this on my blog. And there, I've included some links, including interviews that the Jersey Girls did with Salon.com and Newsweek magazine in 2004, when Kristen Breitweiser explained this.

11. Oh oh...FOX better get skinny ass on ASAP to counter....

All those lefty Libural millionaire widows......

[shance]

12. 9-11 Widows speak for themselves as you said, and more importantly

they are speaking their experience and the truth.

With that said, if the right winged faction has become the "lying" faction and the "liberal" faction has become the truthful faction, then I guess they do speak for the left.
