Liar An-Qoultar calls Newsweek Mag a LIAR, and gets busted by NEWSMAX!

"I'm sitting in a Fox studio in L.A.," Coulter said. "I don't know why there's a copy of Newsweek here rather than Human Events. Here is Newsweek describing Ann Coulter as saying '9/11 widows enjoyed their deaths.' That is simply a lie . . . That is a lie. If you can't deal with the facts and you refuse to say what the argument is, I think that's a total lack of confidence in your position and it certainly shows a complete lack of understanding Americans can find out the truth these days..."

Direct quote from her book:

"These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzies. I've never seen people enjoying their husband's deaths so much."

Oh, I get it. She didn't say they "enjoyed" it, she said they're "enjoying" it.

GOT THAT?

Wow. What's she do - copy and paste hatemonger posts from freeperville into her book without even making a mental note of them?

3. Oh, it's still Newsmax...

I had to click the link because I was baffled to see them contradicting Ann. But never fear, freepers, they go right back to their old selves right after that.

It is this one single paragraph in 310 pages of carefully documented facts that devastate the sacred tenets of the church of liberalism that the liberals and their media allies have seized upon to characterize a very serious book about very serious matters.

:crazy: I need to go take a shower now...

4. Did you read the article?

Rather than "busting her'. they're actually backing her up. Read down to the last paragraph.

It is this one single paragraph in 310 pages of carefully documented facts that devastate the sacred tenets of the church of liberalism that the liberals and their media allies have seized upon to characterize a very serious book about very serious matters.
What did Coulter really say about the other 9/11 widows?

Ann addressed the matter of the hundreds of other 9/11 widows - lines in her book her liberal critics carefully ignore.

She wrote: "A lot of widows support Bush - a lot support Pat Buchanan. But they were not trying to convert their personal tragedy into a weapon to dictate national policy or redesign lower Manhattan. None of the weeping widows issuing demands, I note, were firemen's wives," Coulter observed.

Some busting :eyes:

7. one word can mean the difference between life and death-

she either stands behind her words, or falls victim to her own mouth-

Poor girl- It doesn't feel so good when it's her eatin crow-

I do think it's amazing that Newsmax would acknowledge her lies- even with their attempt to twist it into something acceptable, or 'un-important'.

9. Oh, I

realize that- Like Mrs.Beamer, and those that * uses to get mileage out of-

Just like the relatives of the fallen soldiers, such as Cindy Sheehan, appear to be 'fair-game' for
hate and mudslinging.- At least this time, the 'right' IS upset with the over the top crap being passed off as 'acceptable'-

11. Why do we even have people like Ann Coulter?

Why do we have to have such a deep political divide? There are so many problems that both conservative and liberal working people have in common. Jobs, health care, education, taxes, why can't we put the definitions aside and work together on these?

It's like we were to different nations waring with each other. I have republican friends and we get along well when we stay away from certain topics. We work together on those things that tie us together.
