Do even the blasted Freepers take Annthrax Coulter seriously any more?
Sure it has to have sunk in by now all she's doing is taking their money and handing them nothing but shit.

Coulter peddled Katrina falsehoods on Fox, but the truth sneaked in -- "I don't what the details are"

As a guest on the September 8 edition of Fox News' Hannity & Colmes, right-wing pundit Ann Coulter made several false statements pertaining to Hurricane Katrina and the relief efforts taking place in its aftermath.

Coulter claimed it is "manifestly true" that no one anticipated the levee breeches, then admitted she doesn't know the "details"

When co-host Alan Colmes cited President Bush's claim, made during a September 1 interview with ABC's Diane Sawyer, that he "didn't think anyone anticipated the breach of the levees," Coulter interjected: "That's manifestly true." But after Colmes objected to her assertion, Coulter admitted she actually did not know "what the details are about this."

1. Her job is to poison the political well with as many misrepresentations,
slander, lies, and projection as is possible in the time she's allotted. She's a wine drinking, effette snob that lives in the hi-rent district of New Canaan, CT and has as much in common with her audience as frog has to a cat.

2. Good old Annorexia, or Dann Coulter, or Mann Coulter or whatever she is.

She could make a fortune keeping crows out of a farmers cornfield.

God, what a beast. She/He's a poster child for undernourished people.

3. She serves a useful purpose.
She's the wild-eyed radical focus of left wing hatred. Her positions are SO extreme that they make the positions of Rush and Hannity and Hastert and Bush look reasonable, at least by comparison.

She also serves a cathartic purpose, saying things out loud that reflect the true spirit of neo-con Republicanism. It's like the purpose served by Bull Conner during desegregation, a lightning rod for both the left and right.

In short, "She's a divider, not a uniter". The title of one of her books spells it out explicitly. "How to talk to a liberal - if you must" In other words, it is preferable not to talk to the other side. It is okay to exclude and hate those you disagree with.

4. She is a
waste of human skin.

One would be better served to place one's head inside a metal trash can while hitting the outside with a six pound sledgehammer than listen to her voice. And it would be nicer listening also.
