An Invitation for Ann


Everybody knows Ann Coulter, the right wing's answer to . . . well, just about everybody. She's "funny", if your sense of humor runs to ethnic slurs and personal insults, e.g., "If you don't hate Clinton and the people who labored to keep him in office, you don't love your country, " and "Even Islamic terrorists don't hate America like liberals do. They don't have the energy. If they had that much energy, they'd have indoor plumbing by now." These and many more like them can be found HERE. Knee slappin' stuff which many folks somehow found offensive.

Well, she maintained her defenders among the Republican right until her most recent book in which she decided to accuse some of the 9/11 widows of "enoying their husbands' deaths". That proved a little rich for many of her formerly staunch supports, though not all. Mary Matalin seems determined to prove she can spin anything.

Anyhow, this little tidbit has driven a once sober and responsible publication, not noted for its political content to suggest to Ms. Coulter that she . . . its hard to put this delicately . . . kill herself. "Would it kill you, . . . to do us all a favor and kill yourself ? (Oh, well, yes I guess it would kill you.)". Pretty strong stuff if it came from The Nation or MotherJones or Rolling Stone, but from Advertising Age ?
