The Deaf Press

For some reason, members of the liberal press including Chris Matthews are incapable of hearing every sentence that Ann Coulter writes or speaks. Instead, they have selective hearing:they hear what they want to hear and forget the rest.

In the case of Coulter, it's politically expedient to isolate sentences that alone sound really bad but when taken in context, they are reasonable and witty remarks.

To correct the record, Ann Coulter never said she wanted John Edwards assasinated. Here is what she did say:

"But about the same time, you know, Bill Maher was not joking and saying he wished Dick Cheney had been killed in a terrorist attack--so I've learned my lesson: If I'm going to say anything about John Edwards in the future, I'll just wish he had been killed in a terrorist assassination plot."

She was basically saying that her previous comments about Edwards were not nearly as bad as Maher's comments and Maher faced little to no criticism. She is pointing out a huge double standard in political free speech.

I would tell those who interpreted Coulter's comments differently to go back to school and re-learn the English language and grammer, but unfortunately schools these days teach the way the mainstream media has learned.
