Is Ann Coulter Married

Ann Coulter is not married. Yet another victim of career woman syndrome. She has been engaged on a number of occasions but something went wrong each time. She has had relationships with an eclectic mix of individuals  including Bob Guccione the publisher, the  writer Dinesh D'Souza and the ex-president of New York City Council Andrew Stein. At first glance one might think that Ann is not the marrying type, but her general and often flirtatious demeanor  in the company of men (no not other men!- Ann is definitely a woman) tends to suggest that she is actually quite desperate. Perhaps 2009 will be The Year. If it is, then Ann will be able address topics like child birth and family values with a greater degree of credibility. A good husband might also quell her need to rant and rave so much.

John McCain - The Next American President

This time round, America has two excellent and noble presidential candidates. On the one hand you have the vastly experienced John McCain and on the other you have the meritocratic Barack Obama. However, on election night John McCain will become President. Why? Well, not because of anything John McCain says or does but because of the efforts of his stunning running mate, Sarah Palin. The press are apt to lampoon Mrs Palin whenever they get the chance but this has little effect on her support from the vast majority of working and middle class voters across America. (I know the polls suggest otherwise, but polls are usually wrong). In fact, in the eyes of mainstream America Sarah Palin's low standing with the press may be seen as a plus point. 

Each political party is the sum of it's individual personalities, and Americans will vote for the personalities that they identify with the most. John McCain is too old. Barack Obama is too intellectual. But Sarah Palin is just right. With her down to earth outlook on life, great beauty (for her race - notice I don't say "outstanding beauty for her race", that phrase would be reserved for Ann Coulter), anti abortionist views and strong belief in promoting good family values, Sarah Palin is sure to catapult the Republican party to an overwhelming victory on election night. John McCain has a lot to to thank Sarah Palin for.

Just as John McCain will owe his victory to a woman, so to will Barack Obama loose the presidential race because of a woman. Which woman you ask ? Michelle Obama that's who. That celebratory punch must surely have sealed Barack's fate.

Robert Peston - Please Shut Up!

Robert Peston claims to have considerable experience of financial markets both as an employee in the City of London and as a journalist. Surely then he of all people should know that markets are particularly susceptible to mood. Indices can fluctuate wildly from seemingly frivolous motives. We all know that the markets are in turmoil and we all know who the real culprits are. The source of the Credit Crunch is not too difficult to discern and most people just want things to get better sooner rather that later. There are, however, factors that can inhibit or prolong the road to recovery. Pessimism is one area that needs to be tackled and it is in no one's interest to have individuals or organisations constantly harping on about how bad things are. Robert Peston is one of the main protagonists of doom and gloom. I know Mr Peston would argue that he is only doing his job but these are, in his own words, "extraordinary times" so maybe he should consider not doing his job for a while. (Go on holiday Robert or, even better, become a monk). In fact, in order to stop the malaise, governments should impose partial or, in some cases, total restrictions on financial reporting in the media to complement any proposed bank bail out plans.

Bill Gates Is Great. Who The Hell Is Fiona Bruce?

Bill Gates is truly one in a million. Here is someone who with drive, talent and determination built a multinational software company that employs hundreds of thousands of people and turns over billions of dollars a year. Gates himself is a billionaire, but instead of displaying his wealth with mansions, yachts etc (as he is quite rightly entitled to) Mr Gates has decided to give the bulk of his earnings to worthwhile causes. Good on yer Bill!

Bill Gates' achievements should be admired and applauded. Such a man deserves respect. Anyone can see that. Why then do people like Fiona Bruce (BBC, reporter, complete nobody) try to belittle him. Do you know what it takes to set up a business like Microsoft Ms Bruce? I bet not!! So, Ms Bruce, if you are given the privilege, yes privilege, of interviewing someone like Bill Gates then learn some manners!!! FYI, Ms Bruce, overlaying your recent interview with Bill Gates with condescending narrative is not an example of showing appropriate respect. Also, Ms Bruce, Bill Gates is a gentleman and has obviously been brought up well so you should allow him to open doors for YOU!! If you presume that you should open doors for him then you are either completely ignorant or are intentionally trying to cause offense!!!!!!!

Finally, Ms Bruce, when you meet a great man like Bill Gates try to dress appropriately. Cut down on make up and wear a dress!!! Remember trousers are essentially mens items of clothing!!!!!!!!!!!

America's National DNA Database

The President of the United States should consider placing everyone in America on a national DNA database to help with its ongoing attempts to maintain law and order more effectively. The punishments handed out for crimes committed in the United States are, in general, of the right level of severity, yet crime still seems to be increasing (as it does practically everywhere else in the world). It is a well known fact that levels of criminality in the wider population diminish significantly when crime is punished promptly (see other posts). Today's criminal processing procedures are, rightly or wrongly, somewhat lengthy and it can take months or even years before a case gets to court. These time delays are often attributed to the gathering of sufficient evidence before a trial can even begin. DNA profiling, however, offers a method of obtaining the required evidence very quickly and thus proceedings can be speeded up quite considerably. Of course, the DNA system in not perfect, but the overwhelming success of the technique in a number of high profile cases around the globe should provide more than enough incentive to set up a DNA database at least at a national level. In the future, particularly in light of advances in supercomputing and the development of the Grid, there may be a case for constructing a global DNA database, with the ability to hold records for every human being on the planet.

John McCain And Vicki Iseman

Whether or not John McCain had an affair or any other type of romantic relationship with the lobbyist Vicki Iseman, is something that will clearly cause much concern to his Presidential campaign team. What should cause even greater concern to the wider public, however, is McCain's admission that he is friendly and has good working relationships with, not just Vicki Iseman, but a number of other influential lobbyists . Surely this should raise concerns in an election campaign where (more that any other election) the candidate's integrity is a key vote winner. Barack Obama went out of his way to distance himself from all lobbyists because he new that any type of association, no matter how tenuous, could give the impression that somehow he could be bought. John McCain, however, openly admits his association and in so doing, raises suspicions that when in power his role as President of the United States might be compromised. In this case, it might be better (for McCain's campaign team) if the allegations that John McCain had an affair with Ms Iseman were true as this might divert attention from the far more serious potential allegation that McCain is in bed with lobbyists. Alternatively, McCain can hope that any controversy surrounding his conduct is overshadowed by questions concerning Mrs Obama's patriotism or lack of it.

George Bush To Endorse John McCain

Former president George H.W. Bush is expected to give his support to John McCain on Monday. Bush's endorsement will be seen as a further attempt to unify the Republican party around McCain's position as the party's primary presidential candidate. George senior has probably stepped in because his son, an ardent Huckbee fan, as yet to show his hand. Although, it is expected that the current President will start rooting for McCain very shortly.

While many will see George Bush's move as a means of sureing up McCains position within the Republican party, his support could prove detrimental in the general election. This is because the overwhelming theme of the current US election race is the need for change or to break free from the past. With George Bush senior being seen as such a typical member of the old school, it might turn out that his support works against John McCain's final goal of becoming President of the United States. In order to secure victory, therefore, McCain needs to make sure that his own policies (whilst still adhering to Republican principles) stand on their own merits so that there is no danger of him being perceived as merely a stooge for the old guard.

The President Must Obey All God's Laws.

God's Laws are there to be obeyed. You can not pick and choose which ones to follow but must obey all of Them without question. Christians are able to do all that God requires by having reverence for the Lord and trusting Him completely. Some try to question God's law or remould it to suit their own agendas. There thinking is seriously flawed. Christianity is not a debating society and Christians should not question God but simply do what He commands. God's Laws are for the benefit of mankind and any deviation can only be to man's detriment.

The President of the United States will face many unique challenges. He will have a multitude of critics and often find himself in seemingly 'lose-lose' situations. To succeed he must have an excellent character which can only be achieved by following a good code of conduct without wavering. The best way to live is by diligently following God's Law. It is only by completely submitting to the Will of God that the President can complete his tenure with any degree of credibility. A man's personality sets a limit on what he can achieve. Spineless characters are doomed to fail but a personality controlled by God can achieve anything through faith. Much is expected from the President and only a Christ like personality can meet the demands of the job with integrity.

Mitt Romney Endorses John McCain

Mitt Romney, who bowed out of the US presidential race last week, is set to give his full support to John McCain's candidacy. With the addition of Mitt's 288 delegates, John McCain will now almost certainly become the next Republican presidential candidate (If Mike Huckabee wants to win, he'd better have majored in miracles rather than math). The union of Mitt Romney and John McCain is a classic example of something that becomes greater than its individual parts. On his own, even though he is a skilled and well presented orator with typically Republican views, Mitt Romney suffered a wavering in support mainly because of his Mormon background . Similarly, John McCain fell out of favour with a large portion of the republican mainstream, because of his less than Republican stance in several key areas such as the economy and embryonic stem cell research. With such a high profile endorsement, Mitt Romney has effectively plugged any holes in John McCain's policies from a Republican point of view. In fact, the union of the two republicans is so powerful that it is more than likely that John McCain will be the next President of the United States with Mitt Romney joining him as Vice President.

Senator John McCain Should Not Support Embryonic Stem Cell Research

One of the more controversial policies that John McCain supports is the federal funding of embryonic stem cell research. Maybe he's been swayed by the promise of advance therapeutic technologies that may result from such research, but as a Christian, John McCain should acknowledge his views are misguided and retract his support. Whatever the arguments for embryonic research it is in essence a process that involves the destruction of human life and is therefore fundamentally wrong.

As well as rejecting the idea of embryonic stem cell funding from a personal viewpoint, John McCain should also be aware that his stance on abortion will determine whether or not he becomes the next President of the United States. He has already courted disapproval from senior Republican party members over the issue and it would not be far off the mark to say that even if all his other policies met with acceptance, his current views on abortion and related issues will cost him the election. So, if John McCain wants to win, he must radically review his policies and adopt a stance that is absolutely against embroynic stem cell research. In fact, he should go further. To coin a phrase used by Mitt Romney during his stepping down speech, John McCain should actively seek to proctect the sanctity of life by campaigning for an amendment to the constitution regarding abortion so that it becomes illegal in all circumstances!

Mitt Romney: President Of Europe?

Mitt Romney's bowing out speech earlier today was truly edifying. His belief that the state of a country's economy is heavily dependent on its culture has global relevance. Whatever country you live in, wealth creation requires hard work, risk taking and making use of every opportunity. He did an excellent job of articulating the real perils of dependency cultures, fatherless families, online evils and worldwide rebellious activity. He quite rightly called for a constitutional amendment to marriage to protect it from attacks by liberals. In fact the phrase 'constitutional amendment to' should be applied to all areas where liberals have sought to make that which is fundamentally wrong appear right. Mitt went on to correctly point out that the current crisis in the armed forces is a direct result of the culling of some 500,000 military posts during the Clinton era. Finally, amongst other pertinent issues, Mitt is right when he states that America needs to develop internal solutions to energy production so that it no longer has to depend on external (and quite frankly dangerous) sources for its fuel.

As a champion of many commendable policies, Mitt's departure from the Presidential race is truly a great loss. However, there are other parts of the world that would benefit from his guidance. Namely Europe. In fact, during his speech, Mitt referred to the general decline (particularly moral) of the European continent. As in America, many moral issues such as abortion and the sanctity of marriage have been hijacked by detrimental, liberal thinking. If Mitt Romney were somehow elected as President of Europe he might be able to stop the malaise before it's too late. Coincidentally, today it was announced that Tony Blair could be selected as the first President of Europe.

Mitt Romney Steps Down

Mitt Romney has exited the American presidential race effectively handing over the Republican candidacy to John McCain. This sudden departure may seem a bit premature as the results of Super Duper Tuesday were by no means conclusive. In fact the integrity and conviction of Mitt's 'stepping down speech' was the most convincing display of presidential qualities from any of the candidates to date. However, I suspect that Mitt's business brain has finally won the day. As a successful businessman who has personally spent millions of dollars on his campaign, he knows when to quit.

Ann Coulter must be crying a river. Not only is her beloved Mitt no longer running, but she now has to vote for Hillary Clinton!

Ann Coulter: Hillary Clinton Supporter

John McCain must be jumping for joy now that Ann Coulter has announced her potential support for Hillary Clinton. Hillary, however, must never be allowed to become President of the United States. Why? Because America's formidable stockpile of nuclear weapons should not be controlled by someone as emotional as Hillary Cinton (she won New Hampshire by a tear). In a climate of global turmoil, the probability that America will deploy WMDs on its opponents is at an all time high. If we add Hillary Clinton's emotional outbursts to the mix, then the chances of worldwide devastation increase exponentially. Hopefully Ann's endorsement should ensure that Hillary is last past the post. Thanks Ann.

Is Ann Coulter Jewish?

Many people wonder if Ann Coulter is Jewish. People think this because her maternal grandfather's original surname, Weissinger (Ann's grandfather changed his name from Hunter Hart Weissinger to Hunter Hart Martin), sounds similar to other names which are commonplace amongst Jewish families. Indeed typical western Jewish names like Weisz and Weisbom are actually derived from Weissinger. Ann Coulter is not Jewish and the name Weissinger is simply an old Germanic word used to describe people with white hair and/or pale skin.

How Old Is Ann Coulter?

For all of you who are wondering, Ann Coulter is 47 years old. She was born on 8th December 1961. According to the Chinese calendar, 1961 is the 'Year Of The Ox'. Ox people are supposed to be born leaders who instill confidence in everyone they meet. Their personality traits make them suitable for professions like hairderssing and surgery. Well, Ann does have good hair and she obviously likes dissecting 'the issues' (in her own unique way). As for leadership qualities, I wonder how may people would vote for Ann Coulter if she stood for President.

How Tall Is Ann Coulter?

According to most sources Ann Coulter is six feet tall. This figure does not take into account the fact that Ann has a notable arch in her upper body so her true fully erect height could be closer to six foot five inches.

Ann Coulter is truly blessed!! Her supreme beauty, wit and intelligence is complemented by a height that is perfect for looking down on Liberals!! Give 'em Hell Ann!!!!

Ann Coulter Claims That Eisenhower & Nimitz Were Confederate Generals

Suppose your public profile is lagging and your book sales have taken a nose dive. What's a good way of getting people interested again. Well, why not go on national television and say that Eisenhower and Nimitz were confederate generals. Result: increase in YouTube videos, increase in blogging activity, sudden increase in the number of people who Google your name and an increase in traffic to your website. Brilliant!

Now, I'm not saying that Ann Coulter definitely said what she said to boost her flagging media career (her 15 minutes must be up by now), but she isn't dumb. Ann, however, is clearly very very desperate.

Ann Coulter Is Smart

Ann Coulter is a smart women (good) in a short skirt (bad, very anti-christian). Ann's high intelligence has enabled her to take a degree in law. While it is a good thing to educate a certain number of people to degree level, there are problems with over populating a nation with graduates.

Developments in, for example, the technological and financial service industries, has led to ever increasing demands for highly skilled workers. Many governments have responded to this need by sending more and more people to university. In some cases, as much as 50% of school leavers are expected to take up higher education places. The question is, will there be enough jobs to match an increase in the number of graduates? Evidence suggests that some sectors are heavily over subscribed. In medicine, there are now more than ten applicants per post. In some countries the problem has become so acute that many graduates have to do jobs that are well below their education standard.

Although highly educated people are much sought after, not all jobs require degrees. By excessively increasing the number of graduates, we may be removing resources from sectors that badly need to increase their headcount. The military, for example, suffers from a shortage of manpower and someone with a degree is less likely to consider 'joining up' purely because they have so many other opportunities.

Clearly, sending too many people to university has adverse effects. Fifty percent is too high. Only about 5-10 percent of school leavers should be admitted to university. If there are still skills shortages then we need to consider apprenticeships. In this way manpower and vacancies could be better matched, with a lower possibilty of oversubscription.

The Bible says that the best way to make a living is to do something constructive with your hands. Jobs such as building, carpentry and surgey force you to focus on what is in front of you. A lapse in concentration could, for example, see you fall off a roof or hit your fingers with a hammer. With 'brain' jobs, however, who knows what people are concentrating on. Hopefully, they're focusing on their work, but the Devil finds work for idle hands. By ensuring that the majority of people are focusing on something tangible during working hours, we reduce many of the social problems associated with idle or wandering minds. How can a nation protect itself? Don't send 50% of school leavers to university.

Ann Coulter's Presidential Candidate

Who should be President of the United States of America, the most powerful nation on earth? Who should be elected to make decisions that have a global impact? Bearing in mind that the President has authority to launch some of the most devastating weapons ever created, Americans need to choose their leader wisely, for all our sakes!

The President must be a Christian and should use his faith to influence the way the country is run. The President will often find himself in situations that require a "leap into the unknown". As a Christian, he will be well equipped to follow the right path.

The President should be decisive. Once a course of action has been chosen, there should be no wavering. He should see things through to the end. Anything else is a sign of weakness. For the safety of everyone on this planet, we should all understand that the President of the United States of America means business!

As a servant of the people, the President must be prepared to do whatever it takes to safeguard his country, even if it makes him unpopular. If his actions are acceptable to God, the President should gladly accept the inconvenience of going down in history unfavourably .

Any President of the United States must be able to choose advisers wisely. Remember, "a little yeast makes the whole dough rise" and one bad advisor in The Administration is in nobodies interest.

So, whoever you vote for, make sure it's the right man.

Ann Coulter Is A Man? No Way!

Ann Coulter is clearly not a man! OK, in a particular light and from a certain angle she might have very very slight masculine features, but you definitely wouldn't call her sir. Why then do people call Ann a man (Mann). This must have something to do with the way she conducts herself, particularly during interviews. The combination of high intelligence, wit and quirky mannerisms portray Ann as the "type of gal that could hang out with the guys". Her natural brashness is, in popular culture, a very male characteristic and when debating with other women, she tends to subtly amplify the femininity of her opponents. Ann Coulter is definitely not a man. However, the biblical definition of woman is "of man". Ann is a woman, but her personality is definitely "of man".

Christian Dating Agencies? - Not for Ann Coulter!

Christian dating agencies, whether online or in the real world, are fundamentally flawed. Christians are warned that sexual relationships are only permitted between a man and a woman who are married to each other. Dating agencies promote the possibility of extra marital sexual activity and therefore go against the grain of God's Law. Marriage, however, should be encouraged (see the Bible), particularly in modern times where everyday imagery is highly sexual and leads many a poor soul into sin. Temptation can be avoided by banning Christian dating agencies. Instead, Christian's looking for a partner should use Christian marriage agencies whose sole purpose is to unite a man and a woman in Holy matrimony.

Should Obesity Be Criminalised

Humans are expected (by God) to take care of the planet and its resources. This applies to how we use the land and the extent to which we farm its creatures for food. We have a responsibility to monitor our consumption so that we do not compromise our stewardship duties. The size of a "nations waistline" is therefore a matter of concern when it becomes excessive. In the west there are thousands of severely obese people which implies that resources are being overused. In order to fulfill our obligations to God, and protect the health of the nation, swift action must be taken to stop gluttony. This can only be done through legislation. It should be illegal for people to be over a certain weight. Transgressors must be imprisoned both as a punishment and to serve as a deterrent to others who might consider indulging in excessive food consumption.

So What If Barack Is Black?

People make too much of the fact that Barack Obama is black. This may be a genuine indirect apology for years of persecution of non-"white" people. However, media involvement suggests that more sinister forces are at work. Certain members of the media, who envy Mr Obama's success, try to belittle him by saying "hasn't the black man done well". The key thing about Barack Obama is that he is an American. He is doing well because his policies appeal to a lot of people who support the Democrat party. His success has little, if anything, to do with the colour of his skin. Journalists who persist in patronising him merely expose their own deep seated prejudices!

Should Ann Coulter's Freinds Arm Africa

Africa is plagued by war. For centuries, a particular type of conflict, where one side tries to be more horrific than the other, has raged through the continent. The result, poverty for all concerned. Is there a solution? Aid initiatives have focused on supplying food to the starving millions. Although welcome, food aid fails to address the underlying cause of instability in the region:War!.

Why is there so much fighting in Africa? Answer, is too easy to start a conflict. There is not enough incentive not to fight. The armaments possessed by many African nations are outdated. Warmongers do not see the aging weapons of their opponents as threatening enough. If, however, African states had weapons that posed a greater threat, fewer disputes would be resolved through fighting.

If conflict does occur in Africa, then its outcome must be decisive. Why, because prolonged fighting has a detrimental impact on the wider population. To do this, not only do African countries need better weapons, but the nature of war needs to change. In the 21st century it is no longer acceptable to fight using the ancient "A tries to outdo B by being more horrific" culture of conflict mentioned above. The machete must go! Adherence to the Geneva convention is one way of enforcing change. A better method is to have an updated Pan African agreement on how wars should be conducted on the continent, with severe penalties for those who default.

Many African conflicts occur within member nations. These skirmishes are less likely to happen if insurgents see that there parent governments have superior firepower. In turn, internal disputes have a better chance of being resolved via peaceful means.

Ann Coulter On Education

Ann Coulter has a point when she says that parents should have a choice when it comes to selecting a school for their children. Young people are the greatest resource of any nation and it's only right that we should take an interest in how they are educated. It is important to ensure that each child receives the best education depending on their individual needs. In an ideal world, all schools would be of the same high standard. In reality, this is not the case with (rightly or wrongly) fee paying schools, faith schools or schools that select pupils based on ability, giving the best results. This has historically been the case. No amount of well intentioned government initiatives to produce parity have worked. Maybe its time to accept that this is just the way things are. So if , by selecting the best school, parents are able to offer their children a better future, then where's the harm in that.

Ann Coulter's Book

In her book, Ann Coulter claims that "if Democrats had any brains they'd be Republicans". Democrats have a tendency to try to please all of the people all of the time. They do this by reinventing right so that their policies have mass appeal. The can't understand that some things are wrong because they're wrong. In fact, one criticism of the Democrat party is that some of its members are too clever by half. It takes real skill to convince people that it is right to, metaphorically speaking, put there heads in an oven and turn the gas on. Now I'm not saying that Republicans are unintelligent, but they do have a greater capacity to act on faith hence there public association with Christianity. So, it is not lack of brains, but lack of faith that makes someone a Democrat. Perhaps Ann should have said "if Democrats had any faith they'd be Republicans".

Ann Coulter On Sex And Marriage

Ann Coulter is right. Sex before marriage is absolutely wrong. There is nothing wrong with sex. As long as it's between a man and his lawfully wedded wife (wife=woman!). Sex is a gift from God to be fully enjoyed within marriage. But this is a wicked world. The temptation proves too great for some (especially men), and many end up having sex outside of wedlock. However, as the Bible says, no one will be tempted beyond what they can endure. If you're tempted to break God's Law, there is always a way out. The best way is to fix your eyes on Jesus.

What Is Hell? Do You Know Ann Coulter?

Imagine the worst period of your life. See it in all its intensity. Really put some effort into trying to remember what it felt like. Now double the feeling. Then triple it. Then multiply by ten. Does this feel bad? It should do! Now, take a quantum leap. Multiply your anguish by a hundred, a thousand, then a million and finally, if possible, by infinity. Hell is infinitely worse than this. The despair is unimaginable. There is no hope. Hell is total separation from God for ever and ever. Why would anyone want to go there!

Is there any way of avoiding eternal damnation. Yes. Jesus!
