    She is, but they don't get the media play that she does. It's not like CNN or MSNBC put Ward Churchill on the air everytime something goes wrong in Iraq, Aganistan, South Dakota, Gitmo, New Orleans, The Federal Reserve, K St, Wall Street or South Central LA.

    The left has it's luntic fringe, but for the most part, they are a fringe rarely given free media coverage.


    Though Russert did have the kid that started the Daily Kos-blog on MTP. He was every bit as arrogant and myopic as Limbaugh and Hannity.
     
  2. Not remotely close, 'yab and, he doesn't have four hours of radio a day in 9 million markets, and a TV show every night on a toy news network.
    Unlike the Druggie and the Droput, he also served in the military, not that that's supposed to matter.

    1. stop hittin Rush for being on drugs, it's probably the best thing he's ever done. Hit'em for screeeching about denying others the right to do drugs.

    2. drudge is a nothing. He just gives ugly closeted gay men a bad reputation.

    3. Daily Kos gets about a 1/2 million visits a day, 2nd only to FARK. The thing about Kos, Rush and other one side must fits all, is that they only preach t the choir.

    Like Mencken, AC is in a measure of denial about the soccer host's role in WWII.
     
  5. One thing to preach, another thing to slander.
    Rush is three hours of misinformation. Kos -- his stuff -- is a website begging people to get active on his side of the issues. THAT'S preaching to the choir, not egging it on to become a mob.

    I see the distinction, and the difference, however slight.

    Once people realize that Coulter is a cable TV version of a message board troll and IGNORE her, she will eventually become a non-factor. Hillary taking a "courageous" stand against Coulter was exactly what AC wanted. She probably thanked her lucky stars that the right's favorite boogeywoman slammed her. It sold another 50,000 books. Most conservatives I know don't agree with or particularly care for Coulter. They just like the fact that she enrages liberals and egg her on so they can see libs get red in the face. And libs have been more than happy to oblige. Once liberals begin to ignore or even being to show apathy toward Coulter, her following will disappear.

    Don't buy, don't watch.

    Much like I do with anything to do with fat asshole gasbag Michael Moore.

    OK, so who is buying her books? She seems to be perfectly accepted by the heart of the conservative media.

    You mean three hours of information you don't want to hear.
