    All you did earlier was say that "Al Franken proves that she is a liar in his book."

    Could you please show me where in his book that Franken does this? Could you reference specific situations? I know that I clearly asked for it earlier, and all you said was-again-that he clearly proves this in his book.

    Relay to me-since I don't have the luxury of having his book-the situations, specifically, which Franken actually does refute Coulter and any of her arguments.

    All you have said is that he does so in his book. You make no specific mentioning of how he did it or what he used to prove it.

    I told you that Coulter got ahold of transcripts of the HUAC, speeches from McCarthy, Acheson, letters from Hoover, press conference transcriptions, and internal memos to form her factual basis.

    You have not shown me where Al Franken has proven that she is a liar, in those specific cases. In the broader context of our debate, you have not shown me where he has proven Coulter to be a liar or to be guilty of using fallacies to base her argument. All you have said is that it's "In the book."

    Well, like Prego, perhaps "it's in there", but you haven't shown anything to met yet. So for now, I'm still waiting, as I was when I first began this thread. Show me specifically, since you're using Franken's book to do so, where he can sway me to say that Coulter's facts might not be correct.

    It remains a simple, clear request.

    I give up.

    You win.

    She's right. About everything. Now I'm off to subvert the U.S. by drinking Russian vodka, eating chinese food and watching a french film.

    I'll leave you with this: "The most costly of all follies is to believe in the palpably not true. It is the chief occupation of mankind." -H.L. Mencken

    It is not up to me to lead you to the truth. There is a vast and nearly limitless resource called the internet at your disposal. Seek out the answers to your doubts. I've already answered mine. Then you will truly be Educated.

    I agree. Their intellectual ceiling is believing everything Ann Coulter says. They are really not worth discussing anything with.

    "If i truly belive in something i will never give up to someone i think is wrong unless they prove it to me, You have not !!!"

    Also Tiger Mojo you might want to go live at the Motel 6 ( French).

    Thank God we have a Republican back in the WHITE HOUSE.

    Under Clinton it was starting to look like Beijing West. Seemed to have a "Red" glow to it back then. And you wonder why everything in this country says made in China. I cant figure it out.

    Hey Tiger Educated: Maybe we can get Ann Coulter to write a book on the fact that China steals our technology and doesnt give a damn about our copyright laws. Then uses their cheap labor products to put American workers out of jobs.

    But that is a whole other issue i guess.

    As far as you CB66. No one is forcing you here. If you dont like it then go somewhere else. Thats Freedom.

    I don't understand...

    You relied on telling me about the book, as if the mentioning of the book itself automatically should cause me to doubt Coulter's information.

    Then, when I have the audacity to point out you haven't proven anything, you give up?

    I wonder, when did you begin trying to answer my initial questions that you throw your hands up now and give up? Name me one time you showed me specific information from the book you guys are speaking about that can discredit Coulter?

    I can't think of one, either.

    You guys have just mentioned his book in rebuttal over and over again. Then you get frustrated when I tell you that I'm still waiting for you guys to refute her information using the source you're talking about. You have not, I am not satisified, and you have done nothing to be claiming exhaustion over.

    Thanks for playing, though.

    You are not interested in reasonable debate. You are clearly a right wing ideologe and a troll who came to this board merely to infame.

    I clearly offered to debate you using objective sources. You declined. I conceded that you stated some singular facts. However, I also proved that Ann Coulter is a liar whose conclusions are suspect. I then challenged you to defend your conclusions using objective sources. Or, does Ann Coulter do your thinking for you. You have yet to rise to my challenge.

    Now, crawl back into your little hole.

    I am no troll, I am interested in reasonable debate. You claim that Franken refutes her, and then fail to point out how.

    This thread began with me asking any Democrat to come here and refute or show me evidence. You said that the book by Al Franken does just that.

    Then, when I ask you for more than just the title of the book, as I have formed opinions using more than just the title of Coulter's book, you claim that I am not interested in a reasonable debate.

    I am no right wing idealog(u)e. I am also a troll who can spell better than you can, so if I were you, I'd either invest in a better spell-checker, or perhaps take your deficiencies up with your grade school teachers.

    I am asking you to prove where Coulter is a liar. I have asked this many times. You have only stated that Al Franken's book does so. You have never mentioned a page number, passage, or verifiable piece of information from this book that does so.

    No one does my thinking for me, though available sources help shape my thinking. She was one source, and I have assailed the Democrats of this board to help become another one.

    You, however, have told me that you can be that source, yet you never do anything more than tell me that you can be...You are full of sound and fury, yet you signify nothing, as Shakespeare would say (about CB66 ;-)

    Please, if you have read the book, and you believe that Franken has discredited Coulter, point it out to me. Please, a mere page number. A chapter...Please....transcribe an excerpt. That is all I have asked.

    I have provided specific information from my source to help me form my conculsions. Point out where you have done the same, or do it now.

    Did you read the link? It cites facts disproving Coulter. Get back to me when you've done so.

    And sorry Cal, anytime you bring up the name Clinton, my eyes glaze over. If there is anything tireder than the "liberal press" bullshit is using Clinton to prove your superiority. Or maybe I should just start throwing Nixon around to prove my superiority? See what I mean?

    Neither party would pass moral scrutiny under a microscope.

    Clinton was a Communist?

    I guess this what TE and the rest of the right wingnuts here consider "serious debate."

    This is Looney Toon City. LOL

    I want to know what he read from the book, not some URL link. That's what I asked him, and he said that he would use the book to refute me.

    If he cannot come here and list what he learned from the book, then I can't help him. I'm not here to learn from outside sources. He's the one that said Franken's book does so. He's the one that promised he would use Franken's book, I'm just holding to him to his own "reasonable debate parameters"...
