As long as Crooks and Liars and everyone else is ragging on the she-pundit with long blonde hair, I thought I'd mention that Labor Day Weekend, "God and Country," complete with the she-pundit, Zell Miller and Christian bands, is coming to Denver's Pepsi Center, our biggest arena - the one where the Stones will play in November.

The TL kid's dad has a big box there, above and close to the stage. I was thinking of asking for a few tickets, since I know he won't be going. Not to blog live - I couldn't stand it - but to be able to unfurl a banner while she speaks. It would be a large white sheet. Here's what it would look like.

On the other hand, I may have to grovel big-time for a seat for the Stones, and I'd hate to waste a favor on something so silly as the she-pundit and "God and Country."

I did a little research on "God and Country," suspecting that James Dobson was sponsoring it. But its chief sponsor is a group called "Out of the Box Foundation." They don't appear to have a website. All I could find is a bunch of causes to which it has donated in the past. And the name of one of its directors, Susan Schaefer. Among the things I learned about Ms. Schaefer, who is married with kids and from Chicago, is this form she filled out for her high school update, on what she is doing and believing in now.

My Job: Director, Out of the Box Foundation

The most interesting part was where she answers the question about what she would do if she were President for a day:

Freedom for homosexual persons to marry under the law.

I wonder if God and Country or Out of the Box Foundation would consider that a firing offense.

    Ann Coulter rules... One of the best things to happen to liberals since the collapse of the USSR resulted in millions of people starving to death. I mean, lets face it, the former USSR ain't exactly living the American dream...

    Ann Coulter rules...
    she certainly does johnny. we're just not quite sure what universe, or alternate reality it is that she rules in.

    Her universe is full of lily white stay at home moms and dead muslims.

    And what's all this nonsense about her wanting Georgia or Mississippi to be attacked, because we'd put up a fight? I think Annie is giving a kind of back-handed compliment to the south here, and, as someone raised in GA, I don't appreciate it. I wish HER bus tour would go through GA...there are a lot of angry people down there who don't like the war anymore, and don't have health care and are starting to ask why. Honestly, Ann Coulter has to be one of the stupidest people on the planet. I can't even get my most racist (raised in GA, remember), rabid republican friends to admit to liking her. Even they think she's crazy.

    OK, but where does the "she" part come in? I'm confused.

    Aw, c'mon now. Really now, I can't stand Ann, but she's not much more than the Right Wing version of Michael Moore....without breasts. I also loved the airbrushing on the later editions of "Treason" that hid her rather eye catching adams-apple.

    Is Zell Miller still a Democrat? And if so, why?

    "she's not much more than the Right Wing version of Michael Moore" Wow, congrats on pulling down the BIGGEST LIE award for troll commentary in a documentary. Moore is pretty mild mannered and polite. Coulter is a racist porker who continuously spews out hate speech for her owners. She's a cancer on the nation, while Moore is just a high-profile, though shy, T-cell.

    She's a praying mantis, not a person. Bush is as close to cockroach as someone with too few legs can get.

    Zell Miller is a democrat in name only. He's really been a republican all his life. He used to work for Lester Maddox (sp?), who famously and publicly banned african americans from his awful chicken restaurants... And I think threatened to attack any violaters with an axe handle or something like that.

    there is a huge gulf between michael moore and ann coulter, truth being the biggest section. ms. coulter has raised lying to the level of a (poor) art form. her gratuitious name calling aside, the woman wouldn't know the truth if it hit her in the face. mr. moore, whatever you think of his politics (or his weight), has yet to be proven wrong when it comes to statements of fact. you may not agree with his conclusions, but they have factual support.

    Sorry guys, I've followed the statements of both for a long time, and they both tend to play loose with the facts. I don't think Moore is as blatent about it as Coulter (check out her "footnotes" in Treason if you want a real laugh), but he does it as well. That makes them two sides of the same coin in my book. JMO. PIL- Thanks, I appreciate your "Biggest Lie" award, it'll look lovely on the shelf next to all my awards from the VRWC. :P

    Adept, if you've followed the statements of both, you know that while Moore may "play loose with the facts," Coulter just makes things up. Whole-cloth. James Carville had a great quote in "The War Room," something like "if we say that 100 plus 1 is 102 and they say that 100 plus 1 is 100,000, the media will come out and say, "well they're both just lying."" The fact that both Moore and Coulter have made misleading statements doesn't make them equal.

    It doesn't make them equal, but it does make them both liars. That's more than enough in my book to take a hard critical look at anything else they say. Again, JMO.

    adept, please provide examples of moore making up "facts". you've already provided an entire book of outright lies by coulter (Treason), so i would expect that you would be able to support your claim that they're
    two sides of the same coin
    . manipulating facts to reach a specific conclusion, and making up "facts" to reach a specific conclusion are not the same thing.

    "It doesn't make them equal, but it does make them both liars. That's more than enough in my book to take a hard critical look at anything else they say." Please give a single example of Preying Mantis Ann telling the truth. About anything, including her cocaine/meth habit. At least we can be fairly sure that Moore is not on meth. I'm not a huge Moore fan -- his thesis in F9i1 is ridiculous -- but he is a mountain of evidence, while Coulter is a spagetti of pursed-lips demagoguery. While some lefties follow Moore's theories, ALL chickenhawks masturbate to Moldy Coulter's hairpin legs. Her theories are far less interesting, even to them.

    It's simple. You take him at his word. I'm more inclinced to be skeptical. To me, the difference you've illustrated above is mostly semantics, as they both are clear exhibitions of something I intensely dislike: Intellectual Dishonesty. -That's why I consider them two sides of the same coin.

    Moore presents large amounts of documentary evidence for his positions, while Coulter spews fact-free demagogic nonsense. While Moore is not a trained intellectual or anything like it, Coulter's actual training is besides the point. She lies, intentionally, at every turn. Furthermore, Moore is at best lukewarm leftist. He isn't calling for the fall of the US gov't; he isn't calling for an end to capitalism. Coulter is a hot vomit rightist, as far retrograde, as anti-immigrant, as hostile to equal rights as any in US history. Moore's perspective isn't racist; it isn't founded on revisionism; and it isn't coming straight out of the pocket of a Scaife. Coulter's is, and those differences make your comparison unfair, AH.
