i fail to see how wanting one's daughter to behave like ann has any bearing on ann's psychological profile, or what relevance it has to anything, but i will play along. it would be tough to see my child derided and having death wished upon her by liberals as well as CONSERVATIVE critics. but i would be very proud of her speaking her mind, representing the conservative cause and doing it so eloquently. does she go overboard and misspeak on occasion? sure she does [i was extremely critical of her when she wished a stroke on Justice Stevens]. But after this go-round, i have come to see her differently. Ann has made herself a human pinata for the conservative cause. she says what needs saying, in perhaps intemperate ways, on occasion, but which no one else seems willing to say. She broached the subject of the left using victims of tragedy as human shields, and did it in a way to draw incredible fire to herself. was she personally diminished by it? maybe, maybe not. But i think that she will have everyone thinking, the next time that some victim of a tragedy starts spewing leftwing garbage, "hey, maybe ann coulter was right, here's another instance."
it seems to me, your nose is out of joint over her Darwinism statements more than the rest of her "persona". if she were a proponent of YOUR point of view in that regard, perhaps you wouldn't have the opinion of her that you now do? i haven't read her book yet, but i will. And, by the way, my 17 year old daughter who is very meek and mild and would never carry on like ann does, gets a HUGE kick out of ann, and thinks she is GREAT! maybe bc my daughter doesn't have the personality to carry that off, she appreciates that someone else does and is able to speak for her.
it seems to me, your [Al Simmons] nose is out of joint over her Darwinism statementsI hadn't picked up on that angle.
Ann dissed the god of Darwinism and has its priesthood wailing and gnashing their teeth. One thing her book proves is that although the god of Darwinism is primarily a leftist cultural icon, there are people who consider themselves conservative (usually fiscally, not socially) who bow and scrape to that pointless and random deity as well.
You have given the wisest answer yet. You have admitted that she has done something wrong from time to time, but then backed up why you think she is doing yeoman's work.
Excellent. You would have made a good trial lawyer.
