I wrote in my “About me” page that my transformation from liberal to fiscal conservative during the fall of the 2008 presidential campaign made me wonder if that was what turning into a werewolf felt like. (Roger Simon, founder of Pajamas Media, wrote in his book, Blacklisting Myself, that he had similar emotions during his transition from Left to Right, but he compared it to getting a sex change.)
These feelings came up first, and were the most intense and bewildering, when I began to read Ann Coulter’s columns and laugh until tears ran down my face. I was enjoying AND agreeing with the work of the conservative anti-Christ! What was happening to me? I could tell I really had the fiscal conservative monkey on my back when I began to go through her column archive at her Web site, www.AnnCoulter.com, laughing and laughing, saying “Tell it, sister!” and then calling Cuban Diva BFF to read Coulter’s columns aloud to her so we could laugh and say “Amen!” together.
Then I went to CPAC and caught a glimpse of Ms. Coulter in person while she was being interviewed on Radio Row. Just seeing how petite she is touched my heart, especially in comparison to how large she looms as a devil in Left-wing minds, and I was inspired to write my first humor post, “Scent of a Woman.” I hope if she ever reads it, it makes her smile and she can feel that there is real love, respect and gratitude in my heart for her and her body of work.
Imagine my surprise this morning when I checked my sitemeter to see how my campaign to GET DAVID LETTERMAN FIRED is coming along and I spied several links of visitors coming from Ann Coulter’s site. Holy cow!
Ann Coulter — ANN COULTER!!! — linked me, she really linked me!:
I have to admit, I called Cuban Diva BFF as soon as I saw the links from Ms. Coulter in my sitemeter and didn’t click to see Ms. Coulter’s site until I could share my wonder and joy with her. (Cuban Diva BFF has a generosity of soul that multiplies the joy of anyone who shares their good news with her.)
Cuban Diva BFF lives in Manhattan and is friends with one of Ann Coulter’s body guards. Think about that. Ann Coulter needs body guards because of things she says.
Another conservative columnist whom I love and respect, Michelle Malkin, also needs body guards because she is such an effective and sharp-witted journalist with a conservative point of view.
Like Michelle Malkin, I know what is it like to get beaten up and run out of town by totalitarian feminists because that’s what happened when my late life partner and I conducted a six-year campaign in the 1990’s to get a group LED BY THE TOP LESBIANS IN THE DISABILITY RIGHTS MOVEMENT in Washington, D.C., to make good on their pledges to choose wheelchair-accessible meeting venues. I fell in love with Michelle Malkin for her column on the “Sisterhood of the Protected Female Liberal Journalists” because she made sense of what had happened to me on a much smaller scale so that for the first time I could understand why I had been shellacked, abandoned by almost everyone I thought would have my back and driven out of the lesbian community. Well, actually, I realized I could no longer go into it because I would be with a vulnerable person, my quadriplegic life partner, whom I could not be sufficiently sure of being able to protect every minute.
Which reminds me, have you people forgotten that Gov. Palin was invited by Comcast in October 2008 to go to Philadelphia to do the ceremony of dropping the puck to start a hockey game with the Philadelphia Eagles and how viciously she was booed AND ACCUSED OF BRINGING HER SEVEN-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER, PIPER, ALONG WITH HER A HUMAN SHIELD! Gov. Palin loves hockey! Her daughter loves hockey! She brought her daughter to a hockey game! Not only did the crowd feel free to boo Gov. Palin and felt no shame about including her daughter, afterwards a man was inciting the crowd to attack Gov. Palin with cries of, “Let’s stone her old-school!” (See here and here.)
These are some of the reasons why I am determined to GET DAVID LETTERMAN FIRED!!!
David Letterman deliberately and viciously and with malice-of-forethought made vile, sexist attacks repeatedly on both Gov. Palin and her innocent teen-age daughters in order to destroy her career and force her out of politics in order to protect her children. We cannot stand idly by and tolerate the sexism and vicious attacks on our conservative politicians, journalists and columnists AND THEIR FAMILIES. If we do not show our loyalty and guard their backs and take out their enemies persistently and consistently, we really must consider that they could be murdered, especially in light of the recent spate of killings by fanatics.
We also must consider that if conservatives do not show their loyalty and fight for our conservative politicians, journalists and columnists, we really will have fewer talented women — and men — willing to fight for us.
So, please get to work on the consistent, persistent effort required to persuade CBS to FIRE DAVID LETTERMAN NOW!!!
P.S.
My heartfelt thanks not only go out to Ms. Coulter, but also to HillBuzz — which made me realize I had to get busy on this fight — and Instapundit, The Other McCain, Little Miss Attila and more blogs than I can keep track of right now for linking and supporting the battle to GET DAVID LETTERMAN FIRED NOW!!!
P.P.S.
How timely and apropos that Instapundit today linked Why Loyalty Matters: The Groundbreaking Approach to Rediscovering Happiness, Meaning and Lasting Fulfillment in Your Life and Work.
You HAVE arrived, Ann linked to you! When she linked Zo (big hollywood) as her new favorite Conservative, I told him, and I thought he would collapse! So, I know how you feel. You deserve the accolades. I have been following you since HotAir linked to you. You are now a regular, and clever daily read for me!
Sybill,
Thank you! That’s great to know! I love Zo, too, and met him at CPAC! I’m glad you enjoy my work!
Cynthia
Dear Miss Yockey,
I would ask you to marry me if you were not already taken 🙂 I have really enojyed your writing ever since Hot Air linked you. Keep up the good work!
After reading through Miss Coulter’s archive and laughing the entire way I had to come back and say THANK YOU!
The fanatics who do the killing are on the right wing. It’s absurd that you don’t realize that by stating that her or her family or children could be in danger due to killings that those killings are coming out of your own group. You’re really insane.
Keepleft,
Ah, the blood libel the Left uses to trash the Right.
You do not read the news very carefully, do you? Evidence suggests that James von Brunn, the nutjob who murdered Stephen Tyrone Johns, a guard at the Holocaust Museum, also targeted the conservative magazine the Weekly Standard, which is headquartered about a mile from the museum in D.C. Von Brunn also railed against Fox News and Rupert Murdoch, both favorite targets of the Left. The conservatives I was reading at the time condemned the murder of late-term abortionist Dr. George Tiller — in his church, during services — by nutjob Scott Roeder. And the murder of the Arkansas military recruiter Private William Long was committed by an African-American jihadi Muslim-convert Hakim Mujahid Muhammed — not a right-winger — and, as Michelle Malkin notes here, days passed before Obama could bring himself to make a statement about it, a clear signal of indifference or even approval from the Left.
What Letterman is doing is not humor, he is inciting a mob. That is why he must be fired. The ONLY acceptable alternative is his retirement, effective immediately, by which I mean he announces this afternoon that today’s taping is his last show.

Don’t bother with him Cynthia. He is just a troll and trying to get a rise out of you.
P.S. Like I said up above, thanks for vouching for Miss Coulter. I am ashamed that I listened to the MSM and thought she was a horrible perosn without checking it out for myself. After two weeks of reading her archives I am a big time fan. Thanks again.
