More words. More letters. No more Ann Coulter.
Finally, we've decided that syndicated columnist Ann Coulter has worn out her welcome. Many readers find her shrill, bombastic and mean-spirited. And those are the words used by readers who identified themselves as conservatives.

They are replacing her with Tony Snow, but hey, I can deal with that :D

3. How great!
I stopped buying a local weekly when they added Ann C. But the paper I refer to has so many other problems it wasn't even worth a LTTE. For example: The ten commandments is a full page in every issue.

7. Definitely an improvement
I know little of this Tony Snow character, besides being a Fox "News" person, but I doubt he (openly) supports "invading countries, killing the leaders and converting the people to Christianity" or hoped that Timothy McVeigh had blown up the NY Times offices.

8. 2 points
1. As a good ol' conservative, Ann should appreciate that the market dictated this situation: no more demand for her supply. End of story.

2. Prediction: Sooner or later, she's going to try to pull an "Andrew Clay." Like the onetime hot-stuff comedian who tried to re-market himself with a softer image, declaring that the "Dice Man" was just a character, she's going to try to do a makeover of her image to say that she was just a satirist who overestimated the average reader's ability to know a bit when they see one.

9. The only good thing I can say about her
is that she keeps my retired dad busy writing LTTEs about her. He never runs out of material to work with :)

16. Prediction: 5 years from now, AC will be a pole dancer. . .
in a suburban "gentlemen's club" aka "titty bar"

That is, if she's clean enough. :evilgrin: Lord knows how many men that barracuda has slept with!

19. She could incorporate a "Nazi SS She-Wolf" gimick.
Complete with riding crop & monocle.

Sorry if that imagery sticks with anyone.

;)

18. May This Be The First Of Many
such firings and the end of any jobs she has. Maybe, if I wish upon a star, Scaife will also stop buying up all her books, (10 cents on a dollar no doubt) and we'll stop seeing her on the bestselling lists. Wait, maybe the day is coming when we won't see anything of her at all.
