What's really funny about Ann (Hatchetface) Coulter is that she thinks she is smart.
In reality she's only smart enough to spout the processed garbage that the republican party has all of it's media spout.
And she has no problem with using lies and personal attacks based on lies. She's a scumbag.

I love Ann Coulter. I just recently bought her book and fell over my seat laughing. The woman is amazingly hilarious.

Yeah. I love Ann Coulter, too. If by "love" you mean "want to have her eaten alive by tiny parasites and then have every memory of her pathetic, hype-generating faux-career obliterated," then yes, I love her very much. She makes me laugh only in that some people think the crap she writes is a valid reflection of reality or how to deal with it. |

Coulter is no more than the product of a section of society that idolizes the likes of Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Savage et al. She is a construct of her audience.
Like her audience, she is ignorant of history and literature, and, I suspect, geography. She has the social graces of rabies and the ethetics of the clap. She is a mediocer writer at best, and that's just as well, as her audience doesn't tend to read much. When they do, they like to see someone else getting hurt. Turn it around and they'll squeal like stuck pigs about being abused. She is a noisey metronome, ticking along, never varying from her pre-set beat, which is all that her audience is capable of understanding. She is a spiritual whore and they pay her for her services with attention. Both she and they live in a world of delusion and thus are scarcly worthy of consideration, much less interest.
Oddly, or perhaps not, her books don't sell all that well, individually. Many are bought in bulk and given out as freebies by neocon organizations. Whether they are actually read in their entirity is open to question, but it drives her sales up.
Pretty good legs, though.

Although I nearly always disagree with conservatives, occassionally an intelligent, thoughtful right-winger poses interesting or valid points.
Certainly, some conservative ideas have merit and are worth considering--even if they are rejected. Coulter puts forth nothing worth considering, nothing new, nothing that raises the level of political discourse.
She's just hateful. When I watch her on tv, she looks pinched...like she's repressing gallons of anger. I think she's taken whatever personal psychological issues she has and turned them into hatred of liberals.

Kick over a rock.....
'In his hilarious 2003 book Lies (And the Lying Liars Who Tell Them), Al Franken argues that the abusive tone of rightwing zealots like Bill O'Reilly and Ann Coulter can be traced back to Scaife, and in particular to one episode in 1981 when Scaife verbally assaulted a reporter. When the reporter, Karen Rothmeyer of the Columbia Journalism Review, asked Scaife about his funding of conservative groups, he replied, "You fucking communist cunt, get out of here." Franken writes that Scaife "went on to tell her that she was ugly and that her teeth were 'terrible.' Of Ms. Rothmeyer's mother, who was not present, he said, 'She's ugly, too.' Sensing that it was time to wrap up the interview, Ms. Rothmeyer thanked Scaife for his time. He bade her farewell with a cheery 'Don't look behind you.'"
"That's the funny thing about tone," Franken continues, "It's so subjective. Usually, I find it's enough to call someone a 'fucking communist cunt,' without having to gild the lily by disparaging her teeth and issuing veiled threats."'

Yuck! How can you stand to know even one dime of your money went into her purse?
Next time you want to buy a book and laugh I recommend America (The Book) - A Citizen's Guide to Democracy in Action. My husband was reading it last night while the rest of us were watching a Christmas movie. He laughed so loud we had to turn up the television! |

Coulter and her ilk are merely examples of old-time, yellow journalism come back to haunt us. As is Fox News. The difference is that none of these can be considered journalists, even by the widest strech.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong (I really should look this shit up before posting, but am too lazy) but I think Coulter has a law degree. I don't know if she's ever passed the Bar, nor even taken the exam.

You're not wrong. She got her law degree from the University of Michigan Law School. She has practiced law in New York, private practice. She also worked for the Senate Judiciary Committee (for Sen. Spencer Abraham), and she worked for the Center for Individual Rights in Washington, D.C.

I think Coulter is calculating that outrageous sells. There is a certain amount of 'put on' in her garbage mouth. Of course statements likequote: I think it's time to come clean with my readers and admit that I belong to a small religious cult that celebrates the birth of Jesus this week.
make one wonder what her image of "god is love" entails. |

Hadn't read of that quote. Sorta borders on more 'Chirstian persacution' sniveling, doesn't it. Either that, and perhaps more likely, sucking up to Christians.
Cynical slut, ain't she?

Ann Coulter makes money from her vitriol and she has the right to an opinion.
The real bastards are the ones that give this apparently insane woman a forum and treat her as if she had anything to contribute to society. |

From filthy's fovourite, The Rude Pundit....
Why Ann Coulter is a c***
Language warning, the Rude Pundit is quite, well, rude.
Sums it, and the conservative view point quite well though.... |
Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it's a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.

This is true, true indeed. And I have heaped even more of my own vitriol on her audience than I've left on her own doorstep (in a flaming, paper bag ).
But I wonder; just how large is that audience? How many are serious hate-mongers and how many are just along for the laughs? She can be quite amusing, when looked at from a certain perspective; that of a sight-seer touring Bedlam.
