Whacking Permalink Archive 1-11-02 The Incredible Shrinking Brain of Ann Coulter While she may be good at getting pious lefties into fits of insane rage, I've generally found Coulter to be a Michael Moore of the right: a self-absorbed loudmouth dingbat with a great talent for witty invective and none whatsoever for coherent thought patterns. Do we really want people like this on our side? In her recent stupidity - DNA evidence exonerates Hitler! - she opens up in full-bluster mode about folks who have the nerve to exonerate death-penalty inmates thru the use of DNA evidence. Ann seems very upset by the prospect of not putting the innocent to death, and howls about "phony new evidence" and "lies" used by defence lawyers. Serious accusations indeed, and worthy of further investigation. A David Horowitz or William F. Buckley could make a decent go of it, but it's a tad beyond Coulter's meagre talents. Sadly (but not surprisingly) Coulter provides no analysis or evidence, and then goes on to describe a series of rape cases that have nothing to do with the use of DNA in death penalty cases. Matter of fact, the avoids the topic for the rest of the article, beyond this kindergarten logic: - rapists bad Now that's what you call thinking with your arse. In fact, it's pretty close to classic Pilger/Chomsky thinking...... 1- start with emotive
accusation What's Ann really given us? - rapists are evil
- wow, she's in revelatory form here folks Ann should leave conservatve
argument to people capable of making it, and go audition for the tile-turning
role on Wheel of Fortune. It's both within her intellectual capacity
and quieter for the rest of us. For reasons best explained by their crack dealers, the producers of Channel 10's Meet The Press have invited failed ex-PM and Indonesian junta cuddle-buddy Paul Keating to be their "special guest". Paul's obviously having a bout of Malcolm Fraser syndrome: a particularly awful affliction which affects former Prime Ministers and makes them do lots of media appearances in a desperate attempt to stay relevant. Perhaps he has a new
book of wisdoms to promote, like maybe "how to fuck up an economy
in 10 easy lessons" or "how to cuddle up to brutal genocidal
bastards in Jakarta", or most probably "how to lose an
election by the biggest margin in history and pretend it's not your fault"
A new addition to
the "dickheads galore" link section: a big thanks to reader
David for pointing out this gem of leftist lunacy: the Green
Left Weekly, this week featuring a
cover story by our old friend and Howard's lethal hypocrisy is the familiar Pilger grab bag of lies, paranoia, irrelevant history and contradictory high-n-mighty principles. Pilger whinges eternally about..... - 600,000 Iraqi deaths caused by "western sanctions": You know, the same sanctions that give Saddam enough money to build lots of presidential palaces and leave nothing over for medicine or food. - He quotes "research" which says 2.5 million civilians killed by western sponsored "state terror". Assuming this figure is correct (and we know Pilger has problems with numbers, particularly Marc Herold's), doesn't this give the western powers a greater responsibility to clean up their own mess? Should we ignore Saddam and let him kill more civilians for the sake of consistency? - Previous collusion with the genocidal Indonesians over East Timor & Howard's racist hypocrisy: you know, how he made the decision to send in troops and save the Timorese. And isn't that what you've been demanding for 25 years, eh Pilgy? Naturally to Pilger and the rest of the Left, Fraser, Whitlam, Hawke and Keating - who brown-nosed this psychotic junta - were still the ones who are more enlightened about "Asia" than racist Johnny Howard. Lefties don't like right-wingers who solve problems, it's just not polite. The Pilger World:
solving a problem is always worse than causing it. Saving lives
is best done in moderation, for it distracts Pilger and his ilk from more
important tasks, like complaining about John Howard and The Americans.
