"But mostly Ann, you will just shut the fuck up."

[yendi]

Henry Rollins writes an open letter to Ann Coulter (note that the video and audio appear to be out of sync). And if you think this is safe for work, you have no fucking idea who Henry Rollins is.

On the same topic, after robyn_ma pointed out a quote by Coulter saying, "I am a Christian and I have a fairly good idea of what they believe," my response was, "If Jesus were alive today, he'd be first in line to bitchslap her."

Is there a transcript anywhere?

[yendi]

Not that I'm aware of. This was a part of his IFC show, but since it aired a couple of months ago, I'm surprised that it hasn't been transcribed.

Then again, Rollins is so much more fun when you hear him speak.

[bethynyc.livejournal.com]

I'll run it tonight when I get home, then. You post the good stuff far too early! ;)

[windswept.livejournal.com]

When I saw him last year, he was much less articulate than I expected. Still love him, but I think unless he's scripted he's not as clever as he thinks he is.

[unwilly.livejournal.com]

Heh, most of us tend to come off better when we are scripted and prepped.

Dear Ann: No, you don't. You weren't listening when I said to love everyone. --Jesus PS: My Dad says to stop being on Our side, because you're making Our side look bad.

Preach on!

As for the 'first in line to bitchslap her'? Man, I'm thinking she's moving in those 'moneylenders in the temple' circles by trying to use Christ to justify hatred, so yeah.

Not that it hasn't been done before, but that's why Samuel L Jackson's got a gimme into heaven - JC needs him to apply bitchslaps to everyone in that category, cause his arm would get tired, and he's got better things to do.

Man, I love Ann Coulter. So much. Sometimes I think she's just out of her mind. Other times, I think she's some kind of conservative Andy Kaufman.

She's definitely a Conservative's idea of pretty, though. Only she talks too much.

my friend pablo has a picture of Ann Coulter leaning on the tombstone at McCarthy's grave. He captioned it with, "Ms. Coulter said she was trying to 'absorb his powers'".

[thelastrobot.livejournal.com]

Wow. That is beautiful. Truth in comedy.

Go Henry

That man gives me new reasons to respect him just about every time he makes an appearance.

First thing I notice is he uses a Mac. heh.

I think A** Coulter crossed the line from amusing pundit to attention whoring troll awhile ago. Her latest bit is trolling, flat-out. There is no more content to her schtick than this: "let's see what I can say today to make the liberals & newsmedia froth at the mouth, bwahahaha". If reality were Usenet we'd all agree to kill-file her.

[windswept.livejournal.com]

Bingo.

Ann Coulter is the Michael Moore of the right. Don't get so wrapped around the axle about her - no serious conservative takes her seriously, or isn't embarrassed by her.

[muse0fire.livejournal.com]

I don't think she is - Michael Moore tried to help the little people (albeit loudly and in a way that often pisses people off) but Ann just likes to sit around insulting people.

I hate that comparison - and just because I happen to agree with MM most of the time - it's just that all she does is blow wind and say nasty things. MM looks for ways to actually create change. He volunteers time and donates money. What does Ann do?

And Henry Rollins rules.

[windswept.livejournal.com]

yendi, you'll forgive me for walking away from this before it gets ugly.

[muse0fire.livejournal.com]

Why does it need to get ugly? This can't be a civil conversation? If my tone came across poorly, then I apologize. I'm perfectly willing to entertain the notion that I'm more forgiving of Michael Moore because I tend to agree with him, but I honestly don't think he's as vitriolic and nasty as Ann Coulter. That's all I was trying to say.

The Youtube videos seem to be all on this sped up audio. That shining video was on there about 15 times and every one I tried was squeaky.

Henry Rollins on Drew Carrey (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XTwgTcgwmc&search=henry%20rollins) was also squeaky.

He's gone gray. That's just weird.

audio/video sync

[glitchmusic.livejournal.com]

yendi -

i added a link to another version of the video that should have the audio/video properly synced.

I don't know if I've said this before or not but I have a theory that the real reason Ann Coulter is so anti-gay is that she is secretly addicted to anal sex and is jealous of all the gay men having sex with each other because they won't have sex with her. Just think about it. It makes sense.

[beldar.livejournal.com]

So if she allegedly is a Christian, I already noted here (http://www.twoheadedcat.com/content/article.php?articleID=1694) what variety of Christ she follows. Not the same one I'm studying.

Love the Rollins.

[unwilly.livejournal.com]

Gawd she's such a screaming harpy.

I never liked her, and put her in the same asshat bin as Ted Rall and Michael Moore.

Now if only the entire world would stop using the word asshat
