A Question for Ann Coulter
On the morning of July four, 1912, Professor Harold Hill stepped off the train in River City, Iowa with only the worst intentions. And sure enough, in no time flat the peaceful little town was being educated about the evils of pool…
Trouble, oh we got trouble,
Right here in River City!
With a capital "T"
That rhymes with "P"
And that stands for Pool!
Well, we have our own little River City right here in Rockland County. In fact, Nyack, a quaint little town on the Hudson just north of the city, usually conducts itself with an energetic and eclectic sort of grace. Then, just to liven things up, I suppose, a small group of thoroughly disturbed Harold Hills arrived from the Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka yesterday.
Ostensibly, they came to protest the same sex marriages that were officially recognized by Nyack’s mayor, John Shields, and yet it turned out to be about so much more. Not only is this group miffed by gays, but they also carried signs thanking God for 9/11 and dragged American flags on the ground. Even better, church member and wackaloon Margie Phelps had this to say about a group of local counter-protestors: "I think their voice is the voice of the future, and this nation deserves to have that evil and perverseness, because they’ve disobeyed God for so long."
So, what I would ask of Ann is to rationalize all this for me. Ann is, of course, noted for saying that "liberals hate America"… but as a liberal myself, I’m pretty sure I don’t. In fact I’m pretty sure that I’m not treasonous, either. But now that we’ve found a group of Americans that does indeed trample the flag and revel in the destruction of 9/11, perhaps she’d like to ask them just how liberal they are.
Hmm? How about it, Ann?
