in general you're right about all this. Obama and his minions are asleep at the wheel, and we HAVE been lucky, with stupid terrorists and courageous airline passengers to help. but in this latest case, you're just wrong. "he got as far as pressing the cellphone button..." er, have you read any of the accounts of this? he was dealing with the FBI almost the whole time. this wasn't a case of someone screwing up or something not working: the Fibbies ran a sting on him. pretty successfully too. let's give them the thanks they deserve.

look, anybody who says "a driver has HER license..." is not someone worth reading. this is PC English, where the pronoun "he" is sexist but the pronoun "she" is not. I even know liberal ministers who say "Godself" to get around having to say "himself." the grammar madness must stop!

I like Palin a lot, but I don't want her to run for president in 2012, and neither should you if you want to get rid of Obama. Palin, for all her good points, is a divisive candidate, and we don't need that. we need someone who can appeal not only to Repubs but also to independents--and maybe even to some disaffected Democrats. Palin is doing an outstanding job right now as a kingmaker and she should continue to do that. and for 2012, I'm thinking...maybe...Chris Christie?

what a great column! thank god for Coulter. btw, this is my first time here in months. please tell me that "spiro" is not representative of the typical townhall commenter; I wouldn't be able to read many more of his/her rants.

well so really...you're both right. ;-)

no, skul is right. Terry Gilliam was their animator, the only American Python. Terry Jones was, IMHO, the most underrated Python, just a brilliant guy.

as others have noted, Fox and the conservative outlets must continue to tell the truth about what's happening in this country, so Lloyd needs to go first.

BTW coop, I honestly don't think Glenn Beck gives a rat about himself. he's already a millionaire, and his show is THE highest rated on TV right now. I think he's a patriot who is truly worried about what he sees going on.

yeah, he's a little frenetic, but at least he's giving us info we need. compare him to the mean-spirited Olbie, practically drooling as he sarcastically throws out his ad hominem attacks. ick.

the guy who does Obama from MAD tv is much much MUCH better.

spot on, in fact. and hilarious.

and the woman who does Oprah here is awesome!

I'm not for partial-birth abortion, but this column was a little silly.

I understand you wrote it to be provocative, but really....I am a former Democrat who refused to vote for The One, and I'm just the kind of independent the GOP needs so they can start winning again. but this kind of thing turns me off.

there are a lot of pro-choice independents like myself who are really Libertarians, and believe that true conservatives would back off with the laws about what we can do with our bodies.

if the Republicans cannot make room in their "big tent" for pro-choice people, they will not win and the evil Democrats (who should really call themselves Socialists, if they were honest) will continue to destroy this country.

we knew all we needed to know about Obama when he announced that "clearly, the police acted stupidly" in the arrest of his buddy Skip Gates.

in ObamaWorld, the police ALWAYS act stupidly. that is what he believes, that is who he is.

future generations are going to look back at the destruction Obama is bringing down and wonder how the HECK he ever got elected.
