"Godless" is Gutless-Palast challenges Coulter

[mod mom]

"Godless" is Gutless
Greg Palast
June 7th, 2006


Anne Coulter says we're "Godless" - we "liberals." And by "liberals," she means anyone who wants to keep the government out of our underpants, out of Iraq, and out of the business of helping Big Business shoplift America.

It's time someone took on the blonde bully.

<snip>

You want to talk about Godless? OK, let's go:

Would the Lord lie us into a war?

Would the Lord let thousands drown in New Orleans while chilling at a golf resort?

Would the Lord have removed tens of thousands of Black soldiers from the voter rolls as the Republican Party did in 2004?

You talk about being "Christian" - but with all your zeal to fire up electric chairs and Abrams tanks, you sound more like a Roman.

I suggest this, Anne: let's debate. Set the time, set the place, and I'll be there. Nose to nose, my facts versus your fanaticism.

But I know you don't have the guts to do anything but lob idiocies from your electronic Fox-hole.

12. she sneers at women a lot

her first reaction to the Georgia courtroom escape was "now can we stop this feminist farce that women can hold law enforcement jobs."

She is so filled with hate that if she ever found peace, she would disappear.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

2. "Challenging" it to a rational debate borders on the insanity

Stupid

[stellanoir]

4. oh G-d bless him

He's one of the only truth tellers out there and her attack of the Jersey girls was far beyond the pale.

He'll shoot bazooka sized holes in her mindlessness void of consciousness and good for him.

[nickgutierrez]

11. He knows that.

Palast isn't about to enter a "rational" debate with Coulter - he knows no such thing exists. He's going to fight fire with fire, only his fire comes with facts.

[5X]

3. I'd buy a ticket to see that. n/t

[bryant69]

6. Never happen

She and her backers would only agree to it if it was set up in such a way as to ensure that Palast loooses.

5. Debate on a show like Charlie Rose...

where she cannot rant and rave. I'd go for that, but it'll never happen. Just like O'Leilly will never accept Clooney's invitation to debate on Charlie Rose. Take them out of their comfort zones with no name-calling or mic-cutting and they don't stand a chance. And they know it.

7. Love the (subtle?) slight: Anne (not Ann)

I'm sure Palast knows how her name is really spelled ... tee hee hee!

[mod mom]

8. his writing is so witty that you can laugh even as your blood boils over

the subject. He is way too smart for her. She would never have the guts.

[Mr_Spock]

23. it makes the blood boil

doesn't it?

[mod mom]

24. I read "Best Democracy Money can Buy" just after the '04 election then

followed by Howard Zinn's "The Peoples History of the United States". My life has never been the same. What eye openers.

[tridim]

9. Instead of "nose to nose", he should have said

"Adam's Apple to Adam's Apple" :D

[FSogol]

10. Electronic "Fox-Hole"! n/t

[xchrom]

13. the only point that counts is: the challenge is out there.

throw down, bitch -- or cower like the coward you are.

14. The amazon reviews are worth a visit:

15. I find the concept of "the Lord" offensive

I didn't vote for him/it. We are not feudal peons, we owe no allegiance to alledged superior people, aristocrats, or supernatural beings. We are not vassals, we are long past medieval times. We don't grant a leader supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at them! :)

16. "Godless" is Ann Coulter's equivalent of Mein Kampf

But at least unlike Hitler, nobody ever takes Ann Coulter really seriously (except for maybe Sean Hannity and a few reupke brown shirts).

God forbid she should get into high office. :scared:

[neoblues]

17. If we could get Randi Rhodes

and Anne Coulter (poster woman for the Association of America's Nazi Women with Flesh Eating Consumption and Malnutrition)(membership: one) together... but then again, I wouldn't want to 'dirty' anyone with Coulter's foul presence.

[ComerPerro]

18. He should be careful with that challenge, she will accept

and insist that the debate take place on Faux News and be moderated by Sean Hannity.

[mod mom]

19. I bet he'd do it-look he's taken on the whole BFEE cabal, hasn't he?

He's used to bullies.

[Cassandra]

20. "Godless" was front and center at Borders today.

I stepped past it and bought Palast's book. I'm going to the NY event next week. Got myself a ticket and everything. :-)

[mod mom]

21. Where was Palast's placed? just wondering.

[GreenPartyVoter]

22. Gotta love Greg :^D

25. Two thoughts on Ann Coulter

Ann Coulter is the one profiting from the deaths that occurred on 911. It is selling her book and getting her interviews.
Psychopaths often believe that others think the way they do. Therefore, I believe, what you are hearing from her actually is what she would do if she lost someone on 911. She just did not have to bury someone to profit from others sadness and grief.
In my opinion she is evil and fits nicely with this adm.

26. "more hate filled than satan"

to quote benburch - who said i could ;-)
