She has always been goofy

I actually exchanged emails with her a few years ago, we were arguing over inaccuracies in some column she wrote

Needless to say she didn't change her opine no matter What evidence afforded her

Is it the contention here that (a) John Oliver was trying to point out the dichotomy between Harrop's position on the civility board and her not so civil column and she was too obtuse to see it, or (b) it was a funny, scripted bit in which she poked fun at herself? Choose one.

Choose one.It would have to be b)

Nobody (sans a few choice lefties here in off-topic) is that clueless.... :lol:

It evolved into B from what I have read. Including the stuff on her own website. I read about this yesterday maybe? Watched the vid on HOTAIR and she has more on her personal website.

Daily Show got their mileage out of it.........

Clearly, mosty, read many of the comments from the Daily Shoe. Little known fact is that he reads GOBS of comments on other sites. That's how he forms many of his "stances."

I do note they seem to be a bit more of an eloquent crowd over there than here. :rolleyes:

Regarding your first paragraph, completely false.
Regarding your second paragraph; wherever I am is where the eloquent crowd is. :lol: :lol:

That's how I lose out on all that high-end trim to guys like you.

It's your eloquence!
