To: Amos the Prophet

Uh, she's a superlatively sophisticated cultural analyst.



She's not analyzing. She's advocating a very specific point of view. She's an advocate by both training and inclination. Like any lawyer making a case, her point of view is set before she puts the first words on paper/screen. And that's fine. She presents her case in an amusing way.

Conversely, an analyst looks at a thing with as little bias as possible to reach a conclusion.

Pardon, your slip is showing.
Analysis that produces undesirable results is always viewed as biased.
Coulter's brilliant ANALYSIS of liberalism as theology is not biased. It is an important tool for understanding the fanaticism of the left. As such her rhetoric is logical, reasonable and based in critical observation. That defines analysis, not advocacy.
