The Plan!

Here is an entertaining article by the Conservative sweetheart Ann Coulter. I say entertaining because I enjoy reading the little jabs that she inserts into her commentary when regarding to "liberal" politicians and media.
Enjoy!

While reading this it put to mind a dozen very small people pointing skyward and yelling, with a Willie Nelson accent, "Da Plan! Da Plan!"

Suddenly, I am very uncomfortable with only two vary narrow lanes that all must travel.

Democrat = going that way

Republican = going the other

Why can't we all just wander back and forth until we figure out the right way to go together?

It's not like we don't have a map. Take . . . history, for example. I'd be willing to bet if we forgot all the "two laning" and looked in ALL the books for clues, we could figure this out and get it right . . . this time.

OMG - did I just say "Can't we all just get along?" - OMG

I think I'm going to have to shoot myself. . . . no, you can't have my truck -I'm leaving it to my green cat (the blue wore off already).

Because politics isn't about right or wrong. It's about green. Money drives the machine, always has always will. You can make a Republican look like a Democrat and a Democrat look like a Republican, all you have to do is throw enough money in their coffers. Lobbiest dictate policy not voters. Politicians pander to the voters to get into office, then pander to the Lobbies to get paid. Porkbarrel is such an accurate term.

I gotta admit, I didn't even bother to read the whole thing, it only took a few paragraphs for me to lose all respect for her.

She wouldn't last here in the Pig Pen.

Why would any RESPECTABLE political columnist need to resort to personal attacks? (Lame ones at that, making fun of someone's hair? What a cutting wit. )

Even if she did have a point, it's lost in her effort to somehow belittle the "opposition" by attacking them personally rather than the issue.
