James Fitzpatrick has a good article on this question over at Catholic Exchange...
"Would the late Russell Kirk think of Ann Coulter as a positive force in the conservative cause? It is not an easy question to answer. Kirk died in 1994, well before Coulter took center stage. Everyone knows her now. She is the willowy blonde queen of the wisecracking, populist brand of conservatism in vogue on the talk shows these days. She is also a best-selling author, with several books to her name. She once described the 9/11 widows who have become prominent critics of the war in Iraq as "broads" and "millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities." She added, "I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much."

What book? I wasn't talking about any book, just fundamental beliefs.
Uh, no. Of course she isn't.
Everyone knows that liberals are those most concerned about furthering Conservative ideals. Isn't that what "new spirit in Washington" and "bipartisan" and "working together" mean, that I should trust them to represent me? Obviously, a very articulate, strong, independent-minded and articulate conservative woman would just be working against us.
Do I really need a sarcasm tag?
She had a speaking event here in NJ. I tried to get tickets to it to bring my daughter.
Unfortunately, she (Ann Coulter) couldn't make the event due to being sick
.
No, I think for myself. That's why I didn't say "He's the greatest thing since slice bread" or say "he's the worst thing since Clinton because he's not the omnipotent Washington/Reagan clone incarnate".
Read "Godless". It isn't a fundamentalist tract, it just slices and dices the knee-jerk down-with-God crowd. Ann doesn't claim the earth is 6,000 yrs old, or that God created the earth in 6 days. She just points out some obvious flaws in the theory of evolution.
Only 2 pictures??
So, you have a comparative measure of attractiveness for both sexes???
She's a flame thrower, but the left richly deserves a thorough flaming. In fact, I wish some elected Republicans could dish it out half as good as our Ann.
That's interesting...
You need to see a doctor for your eyes, for starters, then ask him or her about your limited intellectual capacity.
Is a brilliant satirical sword good for conservatives?
ABSOLUTELY!

I did not like her writing style in the past, but I have noticed significant improvement in the last year. She is becoming more and more relevant.
She will be VERY scary to these people as the years roll by.
Attacks, including physical confrontations, by the left have failed to silence her unlike with far too many others who after making some minor comments have been forced to undergo sensitivity training, apologize for their thoughts, and even resign from their jobs.
Somebody on FR posted that nobody has the constitutional right not to be offended.
Coulter will expose Hillary all the way to the election. Worth her weight in gold just for this!
...deniers will be castigated...
...guess you've never read some of the pro-evo's responses to pro ID'ers, even those like myself who simply belive it hurts nothing but someone's pride to mention ID in a clssroom...usually it takes about three posts before the name calling starts...
...last night on 'Hannity&Colmes' she appeared totally unhinged, and allowed the empty-headed actress Daryll Hannah and the oily Alan Colmes to make points against her...if that performance was the first I'd ever seen of her, I'd have thought her a very poor spokesperson for any cause...
