No, and I don't see how anyone can argue they are.

Moore produces films that are somewhat misleading and overtly partisan. He's just a typical political hack.

Coulter has praised terrorists, has said that she would be happy if the editorial staff of a newspaper she dislikes would be murdered and said John Walker Lindh should be executed to send a message to young liberals that they can be killed too (not that I see the similarities between liberalism and Islamic fundamentalism that she's implying are there, but oh well, logic was never her strong suit)

A much better equivalent to Michael Moore would be Rush Limbaugh. Coulter's equivalent is more like Ward Churchill or maybe Ted Rall.

Certainly not. like BRTD said, Moore is simple a hack, while Coulter is downright crazy.

Of course not.

Moore is very fat.

Coulter is do-able.

Broadly, yes. Both are partisan warriors. However their fighting styles are very different.

In terms of active combat, Coulter is probably far superior. She's a bit younger, in much better shape, and has rage closer to the surface. She could probably kick Moore's ass, given the opportunity.

As for brains, I'm uncertain. Both can be very witty or very stupid. My mom thinks Moore's films are more about him laughing his way to the bank than anything. Not sure about Coulter.

I had a dream last night that Ann Coulter was fat and was chopped to pieces...

You mean a "nightmare"

Sad

I'm sorry you had that nightmare.

They both rely on shock value to sell their books.

They are both nuts, but Coulter is much worse.  A major difference Moore doesn't advocate death on his political enemies, Coulter on the other hand does.

Eh, they provide entertainment for the partisans.

For the rest of us, they are equally annoying, though Coulter is do-able (use the mute button) whereas Moore, dear God I don't want to imagine him naked.

Not at all.

Michael Moore is a partisan who tries to influence people into believing what he believes.

Ann Coulter is a satirist.

There is no way anyone can say that they actually believe Ann Coulter is a Republican, Christian or Conservative in any sense. Ann Coulter's comments are blatently satirical, and her only purpose is to try to make Conservatives look as ridiculous as possible, especially when they agree with her.

She's said that America would be better off if women had never been given the right to vote, since women tend to vote Democratic. Any woman who says she opposes women's right to vote is clearly just joking around.

It's amazing that people actually buy that she's a Conservative. She's making fun of them, and they don't get it. She's just a slightly more sardonic version of Stephen Colbert.

Moore goes out of his way to cut and paste his documentaries into getting people to believe things others have never said.  He's scum.  Worse than the average partisan hack who tries really hard to make a point.

Ann Coulter-I don't know much about.
