Ann Coulter — some folks who said it well

Posted on Thursday 8 June 2006

I’ve drafted, and then abandoned, any number of posts about Ann Coulter’s recent appearance on the Today Show. She was there to discuss defend her recent blather book, Godless, and she confirmed what people have known for ever (seems like…): she’s a soulless beast.

Polimom never did write a post I was happy with, and it turns out to have been just as well. I don’t know how I could possibly have improved on either of these:

Here’s a snip from Rick Moran, at RightWing NutHouse:

Coulter owes those women an apology. Failure to give it only reveals her to be a shallow, bitter, bitch of a woman whose hate filled mouthings will eventually lead to her destruction.

You should read his entire post; he not only stated his feelings with great clarity, but updated with a number of items that demonstrate why he has been long-established in my mind as one of the most rational of the conservative bloggers

And of course, the incomparable Jon Swift shared his unique perspective. As ever, I can’t possibly quote lest you be confused. You’ll just have to go read it, and I recommend you not start his post while chewing anything… unless you don’t mind food sprayed all over your monitor…

Both of them said it better than I ever came close to.

    And a truly bizarre quote from the book, via Media Matters and myself:

    “Throughout this book, I often refer to Christians and Christianity because I am a Christian and I have a fairly good idea of what they believe, but the term is intended to include anyone who subscribes to the Bible of the God of Abraham, including Jews and others.” [emphasis added]

    May the wheels of hearty laughter roll her out of the spotlight (unless it’s from a magnifying glass).
