I think this article was toned down quite a bit and got the message across much better (an important message, I might add).

I agree. Coulter should never make fun of a triple amputee's accident. Her previous title, "Cleland drops a political grenade", was offensive.

Didn't offend me, I thought it was funny as hell. I also know it was the truth. Does the "other side" say Bush was AWOL etc. etc.(which is a lie) in a really nice way, hell no. One of the Freepers above talked about the "new rules". Well this be them. Read my tag line.

No, it wasn't. It was peanut butter on the beer can. ;-)

It may not have been her title. Typically a syndicated column is sent out with a suggested title, but the publications where it appears may reserve rights to do their own titles, shorten the column, etc.

I have no information whether this is her title or someone else's. It doesn't bother me at all.

Authors generally don't get to write their own headlines. I suspect her previous column showed up in about ten different places with ten different headlines.
