Carolla Hangs Up on Coulter

Adam Carolla and Ann Coulter

The radio talk show host hung up on the right-wing hatemonger when she called in to his show late. Carolla: “I don’t have time for bitches.”

Amen, brother. Hopefully radio and TV hosts will extend this by not inviting her on their shows in the first place….


Crooks and Liars:

On yesterday’s Adam Carolla radio show, Ann Coulter called in to the show an hour and a half late, then told the host “I am really tight on time.” Carolla responded, “All right, well get lost” and then hung up on her mid-sentence.

The Great Society provides a rough transcript:

ADAM CAROLLA: Ann Coulter, who was suppose to be on the show about an hour and a half ago, is now on the phone, as well. Ann?

ANN COULTER: Hello.

CAROLLA: Hi Ann. You’re late, babydoll.

COULTER: Uh, somebody gave me the wrong number…

I think this is great. Although I wouldn’t jump to the conclusion that Carolla would have given her a pass on her crazy ideas though…the “show that wasn’t” might have been even better!

How wonderful that someone finally stands up and gives back to Coulter what she deserves…and long over-due!

Her ego comes from the media itself. If no one invited this “lady” to be on TV, radio, or interviewed her, her ego would then be non-existent. Her book of lies and innuendso would not sell. She would not have the funds to even own such a masterful ego; she would be out working like the rest of us. We have egos, too, of course, but ours are fed by our own work and behaviors.

Rid us of this woman’s name and hateful remarks by simply ignoring her. Easy? Sure. Will the MSM do it? Nope. She’s what’s known as “good copy.”

I’m tired of hearing and seeing her name and only popped in here to see that someone finally did hang up on her. Too bad she had been invited and was only hung up on because she was late, not because of what she would have said.

Anita Bryant. “Dr.” Laura. Now, Ann Coulter. (And there probably are many other women I’ve missed… and I’ve left the likes of the male scourges such as Falwell, Robertson and Hill for another time.)

There’s something so smarmy, so filthy, so profoundly disgusting about people who make HYPOCRISY, HALF-TRUTHS and OUTRIGHT LIES into a profession. (Sorry if I’ve caught any politicians as well in my net :,).

I don’t know which is worse… these showboating loudmouths themselves, or the media that publishes the venom and vileness that spews from their sick minds.

These misguided women, while undeniably bright and talented in a superficial way, are aggressively immature… adolescents at best… bullies name calling in the school yard, telling tales, and starting every sentence with “I.” They have one aim… self agrandizement.

I have to applaud the “Adam Carolla"s of this world for cutting these jerks off at the pass, even though quite often they are barely above juvenile status themselves.

Good for him, except he was going to give her the airtime in the first place.

This is the best thing I have heard in a long time. It shows how little respect Ann Coulter has for other human beings and that she can’t even be truthful when she is called on her inconsideration. Hanging up on her gives her the message that lack of honesty and having no integrity will not be tolerated. The egos of people like Ann Coulter need to be humbled.
