Thanks so much!

I work in hospitals across the country and see too much, often. In this regard we don’t see things differently.

It has nothing to do with Ann and we can debate the two separately.

I sincerely wish you all the best in your fight and in helping others to do the same,

I believe it was cancer. I feel for anyone who goes through that and I empathize with April, or anyone. It’s a horrible ailment. It robbed my mother of her life at 33. It is a tabu subject and should be left alone, other than to be understanding when it comes up.

Helping the poor is noble, if one teaches them how to “fish”, unless they are orphans, the incapacitated to the point where they can’t do anything for themselves, the very old, the really needy. If one just hands the others the fish, it is just that, a one-time handout.

JiangxiDad called you a liar in the last two weeks because you claimed to have celebrated your 14th anniversary while also being sun-burned from your honeymoon. It was telling to watch. Of course you can claim anything you want here – it’s all anonymous. Keep spinning. It’s fun to watch little go round, and round, and round again.

That would be Mrs. Silber to you, thank you very much. And yes I did stop drinking in 1994. And yes I have Large Diffuse B Cell Non Hodgkin Lymphoma. I was diagnosed at the end of Stage II, I had an enlarged lymph node in my thigh.

Thankfully it showed up, there was pain and I immediately went to the emergency room. My biopsy came back postive, it was determined I was most likely toward the end of Stage II and was basically asymptomatic except for the one lone enlarged lymph node in my upper leg, and I felt somewhat tired, but not too much that it was unmanagable.

I had mono twice, once at 11 and agian at 14 and I thought, if anything, that I had Epstein Barr.

My leg blew up to twice it’s size, I was admitted into the hospital immediately – the emergency room was at Lenox Hill and stay for leg but moved to Sloan Kettering for chemo & radiation.

I was put on predisone prescription and several others and then started CHOP chemo shortly after they got my leg under control.

I followed up with several radiation treatments, and because I had some small tumors in my groin I was radiated in my lower abdomen – back area. As I result I can never bear children.

For now I am in remission, I keep up with my oncologist regularly, eat well, avoid certain foods, do not smoke, do not drink.

Anything else you need to know?

Let me tell you something, lymphoma is a part of my life – it hit me like a near death experience and thankfully it allows me see things quite differently than you.

Believe me I wouldn’t wish this black sheep of all cancers on anyone but it’s the best remedy for Truther style tin foil hat bitterness this side of hell.

It will knock the hell out of you while knocking some sense back into you, all it one shot of reality.

But if you seriously believe I care to use it in any arguement with you – you are seriously mistaken.

So you can take that tired old Coulter infallibility arguement from her last book and tuck away for a rainy day or for the next sucker who challenges your way of thinking.

Exit question: Was she in on it or not?

Let’s have a poll:

Who would be more likely to be a liar, Coulter or Allahpundit?

Hint: At least we know that Coulter is more forthcoming about her identity.

Didn’t he/she tell you he/she had a terrible disease? He/she used it on me once to deflect criticism.

Didn’t he/she tell you he/she had a terrible disease? He/she used it on me once to deflect criticism. And I remember something about he/she traveling around the country with her/his mother helping poor people.

telling AllahP to stop caring for Kirsten Powers?,

What’s wrong with that pairing? Is Kirsten too conservative for allah?

And she dates Liberals

Mary Matlin is married to James Carville, what’s your point?

Now, I don’t think she would be. I think she would have written Coulter off as a self involved media wh*re.

And she dates Liberals.

Barbara would have never approved of that or of wearing a black cocktail dress at 10 in the morning. She had more class than that.

AprilOrit on January 6, 2009 at 2:06 AM

This is proof that you are either a leftie, playing with this crowd and hating Ann for her talents/success, or a hater – what’s next? no interracial dating? telling love to go away because it’s a liberal one fell for? telling AllahP to stop caring for Kirsten Powers?, or you’re nuts, or a Mother Theresa type, envious of Ann’s figure, or who knows…

Audio: Coulter claims NBC set her up

She can’t take controversy she didn’t start or couldn’t end.

Keep it coming until she’s afraid of even appearing on Murdoch’s Home for the Angry Republicans.

Speaking of which, has anyone ever seen Coulter and CKennedy in the same place at the same time?

Actually I’ve never seen Caroline Kennedy any place at any time prior to her working for Obama.

As for Ann having an adam’s apple – Ann Coulter is a beautiful woman and of course I would LOVE to go out with her. Of course that will never happen but it would be a fantastic date. She’s really brilliant.And gorgeous. She’s far more successful than me so I can only dream.

To be fair and clear, I think she did, but indirectly. The line was something like (I’m paraphrasing) “I was going to say something about John Edwards but then I found out that they make you go to rehab if you call someone a faggot.”

I found the quote:

“I was going to have a few comments on the other Democratic presidential candidate, John Edwards, but it turns out that you have to go into rehab if you use the word ‘faggot,’ so I’m – so, kind of at an impasse, can’t really talk about Edwards, so I think I’ll just conclude here and take your questions.”

I thought she had instead sometimes like, “I’ll have to go to rehab” rather than mentioning the specific word. In retrospect, had she done that instead, her comment might have been viewed as it was intended, as a comment on Washington going to rehab, rather than as a slur.

Ann, like Rush, just gives as good as she gets. And that infuriates the left, who are used to Republicans using their own bullets to execute anyone who even moderately annoys a handful of liberals.

Of course, she’s over-qualified to be in the Senate, if you compare her to Franken or Caroline.

Speaking of which, has anyone ever seen Coulter and CKennedy in the same place at the same time?

It’s probably actually true. She does have gay friends. She’s always spoken highly of gays in general.

She lives in New York and likes masculine men, doesn’t she? The Manhattan gays are more virile than the straights.

Carolyn Kennedy Schlossberg has the same visible Adams apple. Is she a tranny,too?

She must be. Otherwise, it means that the super scary smart liberals simply don’t know that some girls have adam’s apples, too.

2. She never used the word f*ggot.

To be fair and clear, I think she did, but indirectly. The line was something like (I’m paraphrasing) “I was going to say something about John Edwards but then I found out that they make you go to rehab if you call someone a faggot.”

I thought it was a funny commentary on the PC silliness that engulfed the Grey’s Anatomy cast, but Ann did use the word.

I love Ann Coulter. She has the b*lls I wish a lot more conservatives had. I love her books because they are exrtremely informative and well researched. Best of all I love that she makes heads explode…I’m sick of all of us being so nice and civilized…oh and she was so right about McCain!

+100

Ann rocks… If more of the “so-called” Conservatives would hit the turd lefties the way she does and pound it home, we’d be sweeping into Offices in 2010… Until, continued failures and wondering why… Fight back for once!
