They support COULTER and we can't support Leopold?

Leopold - operting in good faith but maybe not 100% perfect.

Coulter - operating out of sheer malice and greed for her book sales.

Sheesh.

1. I don't know that Leopold is "operating in good faith."

I don't know that at all.

3. I don't think Coulter and Leopold are anywhere near each other...

I support facts. I don't really support Leopold, I expect him to support himself. As for Coulter, ew

6. Support Leopold all you want

It's the same as supporting Fuckface and Cheney - you're backing a liar.

Coulter's just a smart lady who'll do anything for publicity and attention, and she's laughing all the way to the bank because people pay attention to her.

Ignore her, and find your power.

Believe Leopold, and check yourself into a home for the terminally confused.

7. How do we know it was good faith?

We know he's made shit up in the past.

24 business hours?

I've said that Leopold, Ash, and Pitt were all just opportunists, they took a gamble and lost. If Rove was to be indicted that day would have been the best bet for it to happen. Then when it wasn't announced they had to come up with more wild and crazy excuses. The price of TO attempting to get a huge scoop is their credibility.

12. Hear Hear

If TO is going to behave like the "globe" or other "scoop" chasers, then
they'd better get used to this. WTF is so important about being the first
to break a story? Better to be correct and late.

8. The two things have nothing to do with one another

Just because one whackjob spews a bunch of hate and some idiots support her, it permits you to support someone who as of right now is factually wrong?

9. not 100% perfect? Jeez....

I think they're morons for supporting Coulter. I'm not going to be a moron for Jason Leopold.

10. What?!What?!What?!!!

Try some critical thinking. Aside from the fact that one has nothing, zip, nada, to do with the other, you're implicitly saying that those who support Coulter's idiocy are justified because they're being loyal; nevermind what they're being loyal to.

11. We can support the truth, when and how we can find it out.

They support the person who is their bought-and-sold mouthpiece. We can reserve judgment on Leopold, and even if he is wrong, find out why he is wrong.
