Hm, maybe "Annguirus" would be more accurate. Not as many people would get it, though.
Wondering what George Carlin thinks of Ann Coulter? You'll get a chance to find out this evening when the two are guests on The Tonight Show:
"Tonight" host Jay Leno might want to consider wearing referee stripes on Wednesday's show when Ann Coulter and George Carlin are his guests.
Coulter, the acid-tongued conservative with a new book out, and Carlin, the quick-witted, antiestablishment comedian who's in the voice cast for the new animated film "Cars," were booked at separate times for the NBC late-nighter, a spokeswoman said Monday.
But the duo's meeting could produce serious fireworks for "Tonight," which usually limits its political fodder to Leno's bipartisan monologue jokes.
Coulter, author of "Godless: The Church of Liberalism," has drawn fire for attacking the four New Jersey widows who pushed for an independent commission to investigate the September 11 World Trade Center attacks in which their husbands died.
In her book, Coulter accuses the women of "reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzis. I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much."
An appearance by Coulter on another NBC series, "Today," led to a prickly exchange with host Matt Lauer over her comments on the widows.
I'm not sure what NBC's infatuation with Coulter is, but the fact that this dingbat gets so much air time is maddening even in these days of televised wife swapping and bug eating. I don't even know if Carlin plans on acknowledging her presence, but it stands to be pretty amusing if he does.
Which leads me to a related question: how many variations of the seven dirty words can be applied to Coulter?
That was disappointing. I think NBC should have at least shown more wide shots of the two.
There was a moment where Ann looked at him and he smiled, and when she turned away, he just looked murderous... and you could see him really fidgeting in the background as she just talked.
i'm pretty sure i saw carlin grimace during one of the wide shots.
coulter was on hannity & colmes (again) tonight and she said she found him to be delightful.
i wouldn't be surprised if they smoked a J or two after the show and talked religion.
I'm sure the seven words could be used well, but I find, given my strong feelings towards Coulter, that those seven words would not be adequate. I'd need at least a couple extra words.
