Carlin, Coulter in 'Tonight' smackdown?
This should make for interesting discussion tomorrow. Being an early to bed-early to rise person I won't watch it but am sure it will be quite easy to get the all facts in the morning.
Comedian, author to share couch on Leno show
Wednesday, June 14, 2006; Posted: 12:57 p.m. EDT (16:57 GMT)
LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- "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 would like to see an entire hour of Carlin versus Coulter.
Comedy trumps self-righteousness, every time!

As Jed Clampett would say "Whee doggie". I sure would hate to be Ann Coulter tonight. If for no other reason than George Carlin is a professional entertainer and therefore has timing down pat and will be better able to recover when or if delivered a blow. It will probably be very painful to watch.

Ann Coulter strikes me as being largely humorless, so I might enjoy seeing if she can laugh at herself.

Booking a top comedian against Coulter is in itself hysterical. Kudos to Leno. Ann's overinflated ego and unbridled vitriole, hopefully, will be reduced to drivel. -- I only hope I can keep from kicking the crap out of the tv on Ann's side of the screen.
