The five, who call themselves the September 11th Advocates, issued a 13-paragraph statement Tuesday in which they call Coulter's comments slanderous.

So let them sue!

No it isn't.

Besides, even if it were what they say it is, they have their terminology wrong. It would be libelous, not "slanderous". Slander is spoken and libel is written.

Contrary to Ms. Coulter's statements, there was no joy in watching men that we loved burn alive,

I don't think anyone has ever said that, or anything close to it.

I have no doubt they would trade their celebrity status to have their loved ones back.

But the fact remains, they do exploit it.

"Monica Gabrielle, of Long Island, N.Y., is the group's fifth member"

When did she join the 4 witches of East Brunswick?

I'll have to remember that "the nation has more pressing business" line next time the ACLU brings a suit to get a cross out of a public building.

She said the media's fixation on Coulter's comments "doesn't bode very well for this country."

It's a little late for that. The media's fixation on these four morons certainly boded very poorly for the U.S.

"There was no happiness in telling our children that their fathers were never coming home again. We adored these men and miss them every day."

Of course not. But there was, evidently, much happiness when the crones could use their deaths as an opportunity to smear Bush and the war.

Isn't that how it goes with the hysterical Leftists who are always climbing on corpses so no one can say a word?

"We adored these men and miss them every day"

I'm sure you do and nobody denies that. But the million or so that you received sure took the sting out of it, didn't it?

Coulter's shot hits a bullseye.

Slander, like libel, is actionable.
But they fail to announce a lawsuit.

> The statement also includes a list of ...

Which was Coulter's point. Every thing the Joisy Ghouls
say just has to try to score snarky political points.

Does that mean they're going to shut up already? Wonder how long that will last...

And the media's fixation on you back in 2004 was good for the country?

The widows exploited their husband's deaths for their political agendas. I am tired of the MSM jumping all over anyone who disagrees with Cindy Sheehan or the 9/11 widows. These people decided to use their loved ones deaths on their way to fame and fortune.

The truth has a way of shutting people up, including these media ho's.

Yes a $1M tax free helps put a lot of personal losses into perspective.

THe 9/11 widows? There are four of these ditzes and they love the attention.

How dare they assume to speak for the other 2 or 3 thousand widows and widowers.

Well said. And, regarding either one, truth is a perfect defense at law.

Should these sorry clownettes actually bring suit, Ann and her attorney(s?) will tear them a new one.

Might be fun to watch, if one was certain one had enough popcorn on hand.
