There isn't much difference between now and three years ago. Some on the right are offended by what she says, others are just annoyed, others think that she detracts from her own message with the over the top personal attacks, and other support her to a greater or lesser extent.
On the contrary, a lot has changed. Three years ago, Americans still believed that Bush walked on water and the GOP was the best thing for America's defense. Rightwing pundits had the luxury of publicly condemning her even as they liked what she was saying.
Three years later, things have changed. Bush brings a new meaning to the term lame duck president and I will be surprised if he doesn't get impeached before his term is up. And the GOP is on the ropes. So Coulter is looking mighty good.
I think she has a sharp mind, and has some real points to convey, but is very insulting to the point of being offensive at least at times, and frequently annoying.
You know, Tim, Nixon and Hitler had sharp minds. Intellect is nothing when its amoral.
I don't care for her style at all and haven't read her stuff in years. I think at least in part her attacks are to get publicity to promote herself. Notoriety sells books.
I found out tonite why she's pulling this stunt besides the fact she wants to sell her book. Apparently, she is offended by the fact that the NJ widows are difficult to attack because of what they lost thanks to 9/11. She believes liberals/Dems hide behind these women.....as well as people like Murtha and Cindy Sheehan. She feels handicapped when she engages them.......feeling like she has to wear gloves when dealing with them. Furthermore, she is furious that they openly criticize the things she holds dear......Bush, the war, corruption etc.
Well, she took care of that problem by simply taking off her gloves and attacking them. Calling them millionares is her way of diminishing them so that her attacks won't look quite so harsh. Of course, Ann Coulter is a train wreck waiting to happen.........I suspect she will do herself in one of these days. |
