My question - if you dislike her so much, why bother reading a thread about her?

Coulter is a disgrace and an embarrassment to conservatism. Her books are full of distortions, half-truths and complete fabrications. She is a bomb-thorwer who seems to get off on seeing how many people she can outrage. She does immense damage to us all, and as a conservative, I want her gone.

Coulter, a poli. science major who went to law school, also has taken it upon herself to instruct us all on what science is and is not. As someone who has been doing science for a third of a century, I have a stake in that. AND, having read the 'science' sections of her book, I can tell you she knows about as much science as my cat. I've seen more intelligent attacks on the theory of evolution right here on FR. Science is not merely a matter of opinion; there is right, and there is wrong, and Coulter is wrong, over and over and over again.

Finally, a scientific theory is never proven in the mathematical sense. The theory of evolution is however substantiated better than any in science. The opposition to evolution arises from religous fundamentalism, not science.

If you want some specific examples of Coulter's errors, check my blog or the Darwin Central blog. And interestingly, neither of us have even started writing about Coulter's take on evolution; we're still on the idiotic things she wrote about DDT and about the Chernobyl disaster.

I read some of your blog and have reviewed many of your posts here at FR. If you truly consider yourself "right wing", you are as delusional as DU and Kos that rally against the "right wing" media. At least Ann Coulter footnotes... care to footnote any of your assertions on your blog or attack her footnoted points directly?

- Just another dumb Christian bubba.
