Last night I was flipping channels on TV and I came across Larry King Live. Larry was on vacation, and his guest host was Joy Behar. Not that Larry King Live should be taken seriously (remember his interview with Brando? "Larry, Larry. Rub my feet, please. Larry, sing a song with me."), but still. Behar? Her guest was Ann Coulter. I could not turn away from this train wreck of an interview.
Rarely is it the case where there is such an even exchange between Left and Right. It was a wonderful exhibition of stupid liberals and stupid conservatives together on the screen. Joy is the most surface and shrill type of liberal, while Ann is a vile woman who makes conservatives everywhere easy targets.
I don't think I've ever previously watched a political exchange where I hated everything that came out of both mouths. Not an intelligent thing was said by either person the entire interview. It was so awesome to watch. The lowlight had to be when Joy, who evidently takes everything she reads absolutely literally, wanted to delve into a passage in Ann's latest book where Ann said that the mainstream media wanted to have sex with Obama during the campaign. "What does that mean? They are all sexually attracted to Obama?" shrieks Joy. What would seem a lay-up for a response, Ann then engages her head on and explains that she actually did mean it literally. Discussion ensues. Not about the media's fawning over everything Obama, but actually about the sexual feelings people in the media have for Obama. Then ever classy, Joy finishes the segment with the fact that in her opinion, every male conservative journalist wanted "screw Sarah Palin" (her exact words).
Who is worse?
Ann Coulter...
OR
Joy Bejar...

They are both horrible. The difference is that Behar is basically a washed-up Catskills comedian whose political ideas are really not the reason she exists, and Coulter is a mainly political animal whose books sell by the truckload. That makes A.C. worse, in my opinion.
