Why does Ann coulter get slammed by liberals while...?

Question

1. Bill Maher says he wishes the Vice President would die!
2. Having a liberal artist that depicts a bloody Bush being stabbed!
3. Having numerous liberals in the House and Senate calling our troops terrorists or nazis!

Yet no liberals are condemning them for what they've said or done, while they have a fit cause she says the word f*ggot! Doesn't anyone else see the hypocrisy?

Of course, you liberals never seem to see your own hypocrisy!

Answer 1

Ok, for #3, here are examples:
In 2005, Dick Durbin compared the treatment of detainees at the U.S. military base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to Nazis, Soviet gulags and Cambodia's Pol Pot. He later apologized.
Also in 2005, John Kerry said, "And there is no reason that young American soldiers need to be going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children...breaking sort of the customs of the--of--the historical customs, religious customs." As well as other comments he and others have made over the yrs.

There is a double standard in this country due to some American's hatred of our president. If you hate the Bush administration, you get a free pass to say and do whatever you want. The silent majority will let it slide.

Answer 2

First Bill Maher is comic who making references to Cheney. Ann Coulter calls herself journalists she was ask to speak before a Right Wing Conservative convention and knew exactly what she meant to say! I take exception to comment that liberals in the house and senate call our troops terrorists and nazis.

Also for eight years during term of Clinton the right wing and religious right used every opportunity to slam Clinton!

Answer 3

Liberals have no morals ; no conscience ; no ethics ; no God ,np patriotism , and no sense . Liberals constantly take her remarks out of context-and God-forbid if she borrows one from them to bounce back at them . Liberal hypocrisy ..If they insult our troops and call them stupid , it's because they care..Whatever President Bush does - whether or not Democrats voted in agreement ..they find fault as if just saying it , makes it so .
Ann Coulter says she usually avoids mentioning the widely published lies they say about her or she'd never have the time to do the things that provoke liberals to lie about her .

Answer 4

The slamming goes both ways so lets not pretend only "your" side (no matter who is speaking) takes the beating.

Maher gets slammed:
http://newsbusters.org/node/11169
Even by NPR! (which I assume is viewed as the evil liberal media empire)
One of Maher's guests, NPR's John Ridley, called such comments "hate speech."
And he did get canned for mouthing off earlier in his career

Artist:
As for the art I've never seen it, but usually artists can do just about anything with only moderate complaints. i couldn't find it in web searches even though maybe I just used wrong keywords.

Congress people calling our troops nazis etc:
Um citation please? All I hear is support our troops from both sides of the aisle, whether they are threatening to remove funding or sending our troops in without a plan.
If this is true, I condemn it.


Beware the hyposcrisy is contagious. Check your facts and opinion. I think Ann and Bill are idiots.

ADDED IN RESPONSE TO CAFEINE's list of #3: (sorry bout caps)
Characterizing behavior is not the same as labeling people with the names. Children probably *are* terrorized by people with guns moving into their homes even if the people coming in have good reason. Hinduism uses the Swastica as did the nazis-- that doesn't make hindus nazis.

Nonetheless I agree that Durbin's comparison is utterly ridiculous. I appreciate the factual info.

Answer 5

There are thoughtless people on both sides of the aisle. But Bill Maher is not a Liberal, he's a Libertarian, so he's on the Right, not the Left. As for the other things you mention, I reccomend reading the book "Hegemony or Survival" by Noam Chomsky, to understand where thoughtful Leftys are coming from.

Answer 6

1.) your wrong he never said he wished Cheney was dead.
2.) I don't know about this
3.) What Liberals in the house called our Troops terrorists or Nazis? None.

You have at least made up 2 of your points and then try to point out Hypocrisies. Come up with a truthful argument please.

By the way I couldn't care less about what Ann Coulter said. I am not slamming her for it

Answer 7

There is an incredible hypocracy in what the liberals are willing to attack a conservative for, and will not only accept, but cheer from a liberal. It is appauling the way that the majority of the press will give the Democrats a pass for unfair, inflamitory statements and downright lies.

That being said, we need to realize that every time someone like Ann Coulter makes an off color comment, the liberals will galvanize around it.(John Edwards created a fund raising drive based on the statement.)

Although I believe we should make a strong effort to get out our message, we should do it in a positive, promising manner. If left to their own devises,the major Dem candidates (Clinton and Obama) will spend the next several months attacking each other for us. We can not only take the high road in this fight, but have the fun of watching them tearing each other apart for us.

Answer 8

"3. Having numerous liberals in the House and Senate calling our troops terrorists or nazis!"

Give us an example please - as for the others;

1. Maher is a comedian and it was on his own show.

2. Freedom of expression is a protected right

Anne said it in front of the entire who's who of the GOP - the supposedly "moral" party. We just pointed out the hypocrisy of it. You can point out whatever you want - you do have the right you know. Now give us the link.

Answer 9

You don't even have to leave Yahoo to find Liberal hypocrisy. It's rampant here. It starts at the top and trickles down.

Answer 10

I've seen Ann Coulter turn a mostly conservative upstate NY town into a boo-ing angry mob. This woman is at her black roots evil... regardless of her party affiliation she would be disliked and ridiculed.. the rest of your question isn't a question at all but a feeble attempt at being clever... yawn
