A sure way to conclude if a news/comedy host is a hypocritical opportunist
Edited on Sat Apr-16-05 11:58 PM by TruthIsAll
Did he go to bed with Ann Coulter?

If he did, would you ever believe anything he said?

1. It depends on how drunk he was at the time.
I mean even the mightiest have fallen prey to beer goggles.

2. So, why would said host be...
a hypocrite if he never, ever, claimed to be on a particular place in the political spectrum or that sex with skinny, wierd, largemouthed, possibly transgendered, blondes was a bad thing?

Sex with Coulter may be a lapse in critical judgment, an example of the big head being driven by the little one, or just a good reason to not drink to excess, but it would hardly be hypocritical unless one claimed some sort of pureness and chastity.

3. Is this a sex thread?
Edited on Sun Apr-17-05 12:18 AM by Hissyspit
I mean, I'm wondering if the unnamed news/comedy host found a woo-woo or a wee-wee, but I guess if I ask, it might make this a sex thread. See, he might be so embarrassed, he then says nothing but great things about her and...

Oh, never mind. I am so ashamed... :P

6. I wonder why anyone thinks
that he would be surprised?

I've never heard him say anything about women that sounded remotely as if he was even vaguely interested in them.

:shrug:

13. He was recently sued
by a young, black woman who lived with him, for over a year. The case got thrown out because it was without merit. I watched him on Comedy Channel and then on ABC, every night. While you could see him flirt with other women, he really seemed to "come alive" when there were young, black women on. I thought it was my imagination, until the suit came along.

But, then, this is just a bash Maher and Coulter thread, isn't it.

14. The woman who brought the palimony suit is hardly a young woman...
From what you said it sounds like he takes advantage of young girls — Coco Johnsen isn't that young, and if you google her name (I'm not going to post any of the links here), there's lots of nudes and porn shots of her around. Seems like she knows the score.

15. He just seems to not like
women his own age or race. I don't know Johnson's age, but she certainly is his type.....lusty.

He has never made it secret that he doesn't want to be tied down, either by marriage or kids.

11. OK, here is a blameless scenario.
You're driving home, your car rolls over and you sustain a serious brain trauma but no bruises. You are now in a fuge state. You travel to NYC, run in to "you know who" at Play Land in Times Square. You don't know who you are, where you are, or if you're gay or straight. Now it's late and she's looking like she may have a nice place. You want to crash...the rest is histrionics, I mean history. Three days later, you wake up on the Bowery and forget the whole thing. She doesn't and she starts showing up. If you do it again, then youre a "hypocritical opportunitst."

16. Ask Geraldo. It was rumored Ann was the reason
his last marriage broke up. Both he and Ann talked about it on his show on CNBC.
