She nails nothing: most of those people aren’t even journalists. Randi Rhodes? Gimme a break. She’s a radio personality. Larry King? Hah! And we all know Geraldo’s a jackass. Where’s the news? Wolf Blitzer? It appears he’s using his last name at least.

Anyway, she’s just throwing up a straw man to divert attention form the real issue: Gannon/Guckert lived a life of deceit. His life was characterized by deceit.

Coulter, coward that she is, glosses over all that and just attempts her usual foray into the jugular.

You just offer more evidence of her insanity.

Thanks.

Face it. What really cheeses off the whole neocommie moonbat movement is any reporter that isn’t part and parcel of their wholly owned subsidiaries in the MSM (like CBS, CNN, NYT, Wash. comPost, etc.).

See, you respond by changing the subject, too. No wonder you’re a fan of that hack Coulter. She’s not a journalist either. Maybe that’s why she’s so confused over who is a journalist and who isn’t.

I think if you asked Coulter, she would not only admit that she isn’t a journalist, she would sneer at the very idea. In her own mind, she is so much more than a journalist.

That said, Robert, what about Guckert-gate has you in such a lather? That the man is gay, that he used a pseudonym, or that he doesn’t hate the President? Which is it? Just curious.

Lather? I’d say I’m pretty chilled about the fact that the guy’s a lying jackass. It’s got nothing to do with his, pseudonym, his lifestyle or the fact that he’s conservative. Neither he nor Coulter deserve the job title of “journalist.” They’re not qualified.

Hey, that’s OK. I’m not qualified to be a medical doctor either. You just gotta know your place. We need biased lying hacks, I guess—just not in the White House press pool. Maybe Fox News’ll give him a show—who knows?

Sorry, but ya’ll aren’t too well equipped on the argument front.

Robert S,

I’m curious, too. Just what is it about the Guckert ‘scandal’ that has you so worked up? I know I’m repeating bp’s question. I just thought it was a good question and you might like a second chance to answer it.

Coulter does have to be read carefully.

She was spot-on in naming all those other psuedonyms and changed names in the media, but went too far with the three Presidential names.

Gary Hart dropped the “-pence” in his thirties. Mr. Blythe died, And Mr. Clinton was given the name of the adpotive stepfather (remember that?). I didn’t think Kerry was not born Kerry - just that his Jewish grandfather escaped European persecution (no surprise there) and made the name change after coming to the states.

Ann Coulter isn’t “qualified” to be a journalist? And your point is…? Seriously Robert, please enlighten us—just what are the qualifications one needs to be a real journalist?

Is it a college degree? Then Peter Jennings isn’t a real journalist, because he dropped out of high school.

Is it fairness or devotion to facts? Then you’ve just cut out CNN since it covered for Saddam’s crimes for more than a decade.

Is it making sure you get the story right? There goes CBS!

So what are the standards, Robert? We’re all ears.

From his most recent comment, Robert evidently believes that journalists require the equivalent of a medical degree.

And based on his intimate familiarity with the White House press pool, he is certain that there are no ‘lying biased hacks’ now that Mr Guckert has been purged.

I’m still wondering, Robert, what it is about the Guckert/Gannon ‘scandal’ that so excites your indignation. In simple words, Robert, for those of us who ‘aren’t too well equipped on the argument front’.

I don’t care about the pseudnym, never did. I care about the fact that he was allowed access to WH press conferences while running illegal homosexual prostitution web sites. I don’t care that he’s gay. I care that he was a prostitute whoring for the Bush Admin and whoring himself at the same time. I don’t hate Ann Coulter because she “nails it on the head”. I hate her because she is a sick woman in need of shock therapy or worse. The hate that emanates from her makes me hate her. She certainly isn’t a journalist; she’s a whore for the right.

bsti,

Apparently it has been established that Gannon was a gay escort. But maybe you could provide a shred of evidence that Gannon was a ‘prostitute whoring for the Bush admin’ or evidence that Ann Coulter is a ‘whore for the right’.

Or don’t you need evidence? Is it sufficient that you don’t like their political views? Is everyone who disagrees with you a whore?

Now there’s a solution—find someone with whom you disagree, demand that she undergo shock therapy. There was once a government that thought as you did, Sylvain. It used psychological “cures” to deal with lots of people who disagreed with it. It jailed others for the same crime—disagreeing. It called them names, just like you did. And it was run by a man named Joseph Stalin.

Am I suggesting you’re a Stalinist? No. Just that you’re not much of a student of history, or you wouldn’t go around suggesting “cures” that have been tried before by very evil men.

Come up with a real argument and we’ll listen to you. Suggest your opponents nead brutal “cures” and we’ll ignore you. Your choice.

bsti,

”…she is a sick woman in need of shock therapy or worse. The hate that emanates from her makes me hate her.”

So, it’s OK when YOU hate, but if someone espouses views not aligned with the great neocommie hive mind, they need shock therapy? You’re exhibiting one universal property of the moonbat left, free speech and a free press may only be tolerated if they align with the views coming from Terry McAuliffe’s (and now Howierd Dean’s) Politburo, or the views from the seditionist Neas’ People for the (un)American Way.

And just why do bitter Lefties feel compelled to call conservative women like Coulter and Malkin ‘whores’?

Do we call Estrich and Ivins ‘whores’?

Oh.

Never mind.
