Coulter Criticized for Bad 'Netiquette'
By Dave Astor

NEW YORK BradBlog.com blogger Brad Friedman criticized conservative columnist/author Ann Coulter for putting a blogger's personal contact information on her Web site.

"In an extraordinary lapse of both common 'netiquette' and overall decency ... Coulter has posted a personal phone number and e-mail address of Lydia Cornell," Friedman posted on his liberal BradBlog.com, adding that this might have been in retaliation for a guest item Cornell wrote on his site titled "Death is Sexier than Sex (to Ann Coulter)."


Coulter, whose column is distributed by Universal Press Syndicate, could not be reached for comment. She did write on her site that "death is certainly sexier than Lydia Cornell."

Friedman, speaking sarcastically, told E&P that "Coulter is one class act."

2. What goes around, comes around
If anyone actually CARED about that 'jumped the shark,' tired, shrill fetid old toothpick, they'd post HER personal info on the web--address, license plate, phone numbers, private email, hack her Blackberry, or whatever.

But she apparently does not have the gravitas or noteriety of say...Paris Hilton, so it's questionable if anyone would even bother.

8. Oh Annie...
I once had a dream about:

A certain Upper East Side in a certain large Mid-Atlantic Metropolis, where a certain even numbered street that happens to have an address that reminds me of the displacement of a certain Chevy small-block engine.

Just sayin...

3. Let's bring them down too. Check this out
Here is an email I recently sent to Special Olympics Rhode Island:

____,
I have just spoken with ____ in your office and she gave me your email to address something that I found highly offensive. I sent 2 emails to Special Olympics main headquarters (I believe it was the main HQ). (info@specialolympics.org and ksuto@specialolympics.org )
Anyway, here is what I wrote them. If you have further questions, or if I can be of any assistance, please let me know.



Ann Coulter, a republican columnist, recently wrote an article that contains this:
"On the House floor, both Republicans and Democrats repeatedly gave Murtha rousing standing ovations. There was so much praise for Murtha that one of his Democratic colleagues asked him if he still had to attend Murtha's funeral.

What is this? Special Olympics for the Democrats? "

Here is the link of the full article she wrote:
http://www.townhall.com/opinion/columns/anncoulter/2005/12/01/177286.html

I find this highly offensive and would like to bring it to your attention.

Sincerely,

4. Ann, The MAN, Coulter doesn't give two hoots about "Netiquette"
or Etiquette. She's/he's the scum of the earth. Why would she/he care if she/he endangers a Liberal? That's WHY she's/he's given air time on TV. That's her/his "job." That's what the repukes pay her/him to do. One less Liberal is "a good thing" for the repukes.

7. In Addition...
We also know what Rep. Randy Cunningham, R-Calif., did to earn his medals. One of only two American Navy aces that the Vietnam War produced, Cunningham shot down five MiGs, three in one day, including a North Vietnamese pilot with 13 American kills. Cunningham never did something as insane as proposing that we withdraw troops in the middle of a war, but this week he did admit to taking bribes.


I would also think that he knows just how important it is to make sure troops get what they need -- quality over self-interest!
