Listen, you fat fuck: cunt is equivalent of nigger, faggot, chink, etc.
Using it denotes a slackness of thought and an ugly soul.
Defending it denotes an utter moron fashions himself “Anti-PC”, but is actually some fat slob computer geek.

You and I disagree on a lot of things but this is an admirable post!

Before you all go congratulating yourselves on your pompous self righteousness you might want to take a look back at my posts. Never did I use or type the word in question. My point was, and I realize this may be a reach for some of you, was that you’re getting all bunched up over a word. You all have yourselves wrapped up in some ideal of yourselves as t-men. Yea, real tough when you get all bunched over a word. Are you the same on Redskins or Chiefs or any of those “offensive” issues? I doubt it. The title in question probably fits you better than Ms. Coulter.
Yea, and calling someone a fat fuck from 1000 miles away is really manly. I certainly hope you don’t taunt me a second time you silly english pig dog.
Laughable stuff at best.
I’m not defending the word, only questioning why you need to get so excited about it, when its really not the point of the forum post at all.
Now I’ll return you to your regularly scheduled internet superiority fest. Carry on gentlemen.

Yea, the language is always so pristine in these forums. I guess since I didn’t use the word, the jackass would apply to someone else?

Like her or not, Ms. Coulter is spot on with this article.
Nope, she’s still a stupid cunt.
Thanks for reading the article and responding intelligrently to the observations contained within.
your usual contributions to the forum…snore.
I did read the article, and my response is completely commensurate with the article you posted.
Like it or not, she’s nothing more than a loud, shrill, stupid cunt.
First of all, I think that word is disgusting, filthy, and should never be used directly at a woman. It is derrogatory and usually totally unneceessary. Accuse me of snobbery or sexism all you want, but I categorize men by the way they speak to (and about) women, and language like that is deplorable in any circumstance.
All that aside, I went back and actually READ this article as objectively as humanly possible, to try and ascertain what you could possibly mean by “loud, shrill and stupid.” Perhaps you don’t agree with what she’s said in previous TV appearances, but whats with your tone about THIS particular article???
Do me a favor… replace the words “by Ann Coulter” with “by Jane Doe” and see if you find the same terminology appropriate. All things aside, I don’t see anything shrill or stupid about this article.
Oh good, now women have a word we can’t say. Get over yourself. There’s worse things happening in the world than getting uptight over a word.
That word is so offensive and demeaning it has no place in casual conversation. If that is your only way of expressing yourself, you’re better off with your mouth shut. You obviously have nothing to add to the debate.
I don’t know anyone that tends to use it in “casual” conversation. Unless your watching Deadwood. I think its meant to be a deragatory term. I think the poster who uses it probably chose the word carefully to convey the depth of his contempt for Ms. Coulter. Maybe bitch just doesn’t cut it for him. On another side of the coin, I could care less what your womanly sensiblities think about the use of certain words.
I’m suprised I got any typing out at all cause I was so scared by your internet tough guy spiel.
And what did you just add to the debate, Einstein?
Ann Coulter is a silly knucklehead. Does that make you feel a little better?
By the way, the tone of your post offended me. It had no place on an internet forum. Oh boo hoo hoo. Woe is me.
Actually, I can’t say it any better than Harris.[/quote]
I doubt you tried.

Even your attempt to turn it back on me with the ‘internet tough guy BS’ was just plain stupid. But it’s clear you really did have nothing to offer, so thanks for proving it once again.[/quote]
Yea, way off base.

By the way, I consider all internet posting to be casual conversation. You have the time to think about what you just typed and change it before hitting enter. If that’s the best you got, better off with your mouth shut.[/quote]
Well, its certainly all about what YOU think. I type with my mouth closed by the way, so that should make you happy. Good post.

Big difference between jackass and the term in question. I use the term jackass in front of women. I do not use the other term at all.
I am glad you are not the one that used the word.
It is admirable to stand up for others freedom of speech.
It is also ok to label someone a jackass when they use that freedom in such an ignorant manner.

He has had a few jackass moments as most of us have.
Of course he seems to have more than his share.

I will agree with sentence one completely. I will stay away from sentence two. I believe my opinions on that are clear. (In his defense,he has provided me with a chuckle or two also.)

You may not have used it, but on your own with no prompting you chose to try and defend it. So now that you’re trying to weasel out of your responsibility, I guess jackass does fit.

Me too. He is often just as amusing as he is irritating. That is what I like about him even though we often disagree.
