To: Tired of Taxes
She makes similar comments about other people consistently.

Tired of taxes...me too, definitely. -:)

But, as I said, I only read Ann's columns when they're posted here. But, I can't imagine her savaging a Freeper, or Jim, or Dubya, Rush, or a fellow conservative- not in the manner that was done her.

But beyond that, intuitively, I'm sure you know the referenced attacks weren't intended to devalue her ideas, but they went to hurt her personally (skinny, no Adam's Apple, chicken legs, hooker)- Comments like that aren't intended to win an intellectual argument, they're intended to hurt.

I mean no one, no one, would hate to see Hillary be President, much less reelected as Senator, more than I. But, I really don't see any reason to call her "piano legs"--- there's so much to criticize with her views, I don't even have time to think about her appearance.

But, even there, attacking an arch enemy is one thing- attacking a person who -heretofore- has been everyone's favorite female columnist on this Board is quite another thing. And what's most infuriating is that, you know, as soon as she writes another great column attacking liberals, this Board will be overloaded with all those "sexy" photos of the incomparable Ann Coulter. It's unseemly, and intellectually dishonest.

I like Ann and am as much amused as edified by her antics, writing, and personal appearances in various forums. I doubt seriously that she is offended by the potty mouths on FR who do not discriminate when commenting on any persons personal appearance. Ann would likely be more interested in the number of posts commenting on her article as that is what she does best, i.e. stir up the populous. I believe she is wrong about John Roberts being a possible Souter. And for all of those who think Roberts doesn't cut it as a conservative or an originalist I would say there is just as much a chance for disappointment with any nominee we might think we have figured out to be the exact perfect person for the job. Pres Bush is well aware that bringing the country back to the Constitution rests on his shoulders, and I have not seen him shirk a hard job yet. From what I have read about John Roberts, I see nothing to support the negative consequence some seem to have accepted as the outcome of this nomination.
