She probably should apologize Obama did
The audience roared with laughter, and the late-night talk show host assured Obama "that's very good, Mr. President." To which Obama interjected, "It's like -- it was like Special Olympics, or something."

But if I was on a jury and had to decide who was mentally challenged Ann or BHO... I'd have to say our president

The Obama approval ratings are apparently bad enough that they’re going with the, “He’s not a liar, he’s just stupid” defense.

As somebody who has helped raise funds for the mentally disabled via Operation HOPE with the Knights of Columbus, the good that goes to these folks is something not to be taken lightly and believe me when they thank you, it is very moving. Ann Coulter is heartless idiot who, for whatever reason, is held to high esteem in the GOP circles.

Anybody can throw around the word "retard" like it's nothing. WRONG! Highly offensive and kudos to this gentleman for letting Mr. Coulter know about it and no, that's not a typo. :evil:

Conservative wimmen are fair game. The War on Wimmens TM doesn't apply to them.

It also doesn't apply to Donk Wimmens who are taken advantage of and subsequently blow Donk presidents in the Oval Office

BTW Coulter's right more than not but to me she's an annoying blowhard along the lines of Hannity

I think it may be possible that a guy with Downs Syndrome really wrote that. But if I had to bet I'd bet that's not the case. The reason is obvious. See the following quote from http://www.globaldownsyndrome.org/about ... -syndrome/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;:
In the last several years, the average IQ of a person with Down syndrome has increased. In people with Down syndrome, 39.4% are in the mild intellectual disability range of 50-70, and 1% in the borderline intellectual function range of 70-80.
Another thing: According to the diagnostic criteria page at http://behavenet.com/node/21026" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;, "mental retardation" is defined as having an IQ of around 70 or below (the obsolete set of criteria says that but scroll down and you'll see that particular thing hasn't changed). I'm very confident that the blog post wasn't written by someone with an IQ of around 70 or less. If the Down Syndrome guy really wrote it, he's probably not mentally retarded anyway.

You know, the reality is that there are mentally retarded people. We can try to make it sound better by saying something like "intellectually disabled" but it is what it is. And browbeating people who use the terminology isn't going to change anything. Say you got your arm amputated. Would it make it better if I say "limbologically challenged person" instead of "amputee?" Is that going to bring your arm back?

What if she'd have said, "That's stupid?" Should we get in a wad because she insulted stupid people? Actually, "stupid" and "mentally retarded" could be construed as synonyms.

As always, getting all indignant about something like that is ridiculous.

Here's one example of one of Coulter's tweets that got people in a wad (referring to Obama):
If he's "the smartest guy in the room" it must be one retarded room.
Actually, I think she nailed it on that one. And I love this response from her:
The only people who will be offended are too retarded to understand it.
You go girl.

In the tweet he was referring to she called him a "retard". The point is not about the righteous indignation, the point is she got owned by someone who is developmentally disabled. As for the validity of whether or not he wrote the letter, I have a cousin with D.S. who was class president, and has lived most of his adult life on his own, holding down a job. There are obviously different levels...and some relatively low functioning adults even go on to run professional baseball franchises and become president...

The only way anyone would say Coulter "got owned" by whoever wrote that blog post is if they start off wanting to believe that. If you're like me and start off thinking that getting all offended by someone calling someone else a "retard" is ridiculous the opposite is the case. Then that blog post is just one more example of politically correct drivel.

And, be honest now, do you think your cousin could write something like that blog post on his own? I'm not talking about getting the basic point across. I'm talking about the advanced vocabulary and use of language.

On one hand I don't really like Coulter that much myself. I don't like the ad hominem style she has. To the extent that we are on the same "side" on many issues I wish she conducted herself in a more "professional" manner. But one thing I do respect about her is that she does not cower when people pull the political correctness card on her such as is the case here. She stands her ground. Good for her.

As I've written before the estimate of George Bush's IQ based on his SAT score you get a fairly high IQ. For example, if you go to the estimator at http://www.braingle.com/mind/iq/convert.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and plug in Bush's SAT information (pre 1974, Math score 640, Verbal score 566), you get an estimated IQ of 129. Yes there is some error to that. It's an estimate. But not that much. He is clearly above the average range in terms of IQ (average range is about 85 through 115).

When you're talking about Down Syndrome you're talking about it being very unlikely that the individual's IQ is above 80.

I know you were being flip. But it was just one more chance to rebut this notion that Bush is stupid. He's not. Not even close.

I'll admit to reading ACs columns. She can definitely be obnoxious and a hack but that doesn't mean she doesn't write some quality stuff. She is definitely a few steps above people like Hannity and Limbaugh in terms of knowledge.
