but why does Bill Maher still consider her a friend

makes it hard for me to watch his HBO show and I love the show

i have to live with myself so i cant do that

I've run into DUers whose entire attitude is, "Worry about people here first."

Usually they have in mind money or stuff, but it's the same principle. "Don't help others in extreme distress when you have people right here at home suffering." On occasion you get the decided impression that the people "right here at home suffering" included the person complaining. At other times you don't.

I figure people can go help others wherever they choose. I knew one young woman who wanted to help disabled young orphans in Ukraine in the '90s, when they had a bumper crop. Another student volunteered at a disadvantaged school in a disadvantaged part of Los Angeles.

should or shouldn't do.

Funny how Coulter separates herself out from do-gooders. Is she without a handler now? What military branch did she serve in again? What charity does she represent here in America again, I forget?

if she had gay children. And was blasé about it.

She would harm the country, even her own family. Her level of self loathing must be epic.

...Ms Coulter has NO children of any orientation. She would be a terrible mother. She has no warmth in her soul. Oh wait - she acts as if she has no soul at all, warm, cold, or otherwise.

it's kind of what Christians are supposed to be and do...

I know she just says anything to rile up her RW followers, but if she's going to bring up the Christianity of the aid workers, you'd think she wouldn't try to deny the basic Christian story that provided the name for their charity - Samaritan's Purse. For once, I think that, however RW her readers are, in this situation they're going to remember one of the best-known Bible stories and recognise she's talking shit.

That Coulter sure knows her bible.

was I supposed to giggle at the midnight basketball line or was the sandwich the punchline? I don't speak stupid paranoia so I just don't know what she is saying. Perhaps she needs to run a translated column for those of us not in tune to the banter of the batshit insane paranoid.

Of course, everybody knows that the Babel fish is the ultimate argument against God's existence. He vanishes in a puff of logic. I certainly wish Ann Coulter would.

Her head can spin completely around!
