My initial response to the video was the same as most writers: "why does ANYONE pay this woman to appear on their show!?!!". But, I have to say that I really like Forest's take on it.
And not only Coulter; the MSM should be inviting O'Reilly, Hannity, et al to sit down for interviews as frequently as possible--provided the interviewer is as prepared and as fearless as Stewart or Colbert. These twits rarely pass up an opportunity for self-promotion, and if--over and over again, day in and day out--the bright light of reason and compassion could shine on these cave-dwellers the era of their ascendancy would soon be over; ended by the sudden realization of red state voters everywhere that the people they believe speak for them are nitwits who love self-congratualtion and loathe everything else.
Okay MSM...bring it on.
Just think, if everybody wasn't responding with their reflexive outrage over Ann's latest public projectile vomiting, no one would have even heard about her appearance on TODAY.
And it's not important that we do. She decides no policy. She's nothing, a distraction used only because the terrifying Canada terror plot isn't moving our attention away fast enough from...Haditha, for instance.
So they toss her in our faces like flak, or like sand in a referee's eyes. And just by exposure to the curious she manages to sell more books. Why, I'll bet some of my fellow liberals are going to buy the damn book just to attack it. Which is fine because, either way, it sells; it doesn't matter why. Ironic money is still green.
Coulter is a cluster bomb of toxic memes. She picks the ones as pointy as her skin, scatters them all over the place during whatever time she has on the air, and runs. Some don't stick. Some stick in the craws of liberals and they then waste time expelling them, wondering why they're so out of breath and energy once they've retched 'em up. And some stick in the spacious skulls of the ignorant and rattle down till they drop from their mouths.
That is all she's for. Well, and the wank fantasies of closeted young Republicans.
It is not necessary to pay any attention to her; in fact it's destructive. She is a screeching siren who lures intelligent people to intertia. And she counts, ultimately, for nothing. Every time you argue with her she just laughs.
As they said on the Simpsons: Just don't look.
She is a sick, ugly woman. And when I say "ugly," I refer not to her witchy, horse-faced countenance, but to the ugly hatred that fills her mind and soul.
I don't agree that she says this stuff just to get attention. I've met far too many people in my life who wholeheartedly believe the hateful, bigoted bilge that spews from her lips to think it's impossible that anyone could really think this way. She does, and thus has a delightful surprise waiting for her at the Pearly Gates:
"I'm sorry, Ms. Coulter, but you're not on the list. The down elevator is, appropriately, to your right."
My favorite thing to do on my day off is browse through my local bookstore.
Over the years I've SPENT a lot of money there. Just as I entered Barnes
and Noble today I was slapped in the face by a lifesize display of AC's
latest book, 'Goddess'. Here she is on the cover staring seductively out at all her
adoring public, which must be all horny old men. She looks like she's posing
for Penthouse or Playboy magazine, so that should tell you right there the woman
does not have anything of any substance to say. Are her publishers selling sex or
politics? I gather from the cross she's boldly wearing that she is religious.
Hmmm? Wonder if she wears that lowcut little black dress topped off with the
cross in her bare cleavage to church on Sundays? Wonder how many family values
Republicans peruse the book when they're shopping at B&N with their children?
I look for B&N to start displaying the National Enquirer or The Globe or some of
those other trashy supermarket tabloids right up front. It will be a very long
time before I make another purchase there, if ever.
There's a saying: "You're a Republican until it happens to you."
Coulter knows the effect she has on liberals and neo-cons, she promotes it and exploits it.
The hateful gibberish she spews has no other purpose than to create controversy. Like the ID cretins and the promoters of the same sex marriage amendment she offers no reasonable or logical arguments for her positions, just start a fight and the ignorant knuckle-draggers howl their approval.
I don't think Coulter actually believes the shit she spouts, unlike "W" or Bill O'Reilly she only sounds like a retarded chimp. She is the ultimate scary clown.
Stephen Colbert's squewering of Bill O'Reilly is so funny because "The Dumbest Man on TV" is obviously a true believer. I can't imagine anyone mocking Ann Coulter. What's the point of parodying a clown?
Is there still hope?

I wonder what Coulter's husband and children think of her statements. Oh wait, she's not married and she doesn't have any children. She made her bones as a lawyer for Paula Jones and she regularly lies about her age and her home address. She's a poster thing for all the right wing psychopaths in this country. Factually she's everything the wingers hate. She's a lawyer. An unmarried and childless professional woman. She's too horrible to marry, too skinny to menstrate much less produce a viable egg to fertilize and she runs her mouth instead of cooking dinner for her family. Bad right winger!!!
Ignoring Coulter with the thought that she'll "go away" or encouraging her with the thought that she'll eventually alienate Republicans with her stupidity and viciousness are two approaches that don't appreciate what she is tapping into. A lot of Americans are bored, uneducated, overstressed, filled with vague feelings of hatred, inferiority and frustration, and conditioned to appreciate bullying and sadism. They sense that something has gone wrong with their country but don't grasp what it is. People like Coulter trot out a lot of hackneyed cliches: "it's the effeminate liberals, the gays, coloreds, atheists etc." and immediately people can channel their rage and contempt. If Adolf Hitler were alive today he would be on the bestseller list right next to Coulter.
