The name calling turned me off Coulter so wrote her off my list a long time ago. Apparently so have many others as you don’t see her much now days. Good riddance.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I don't see her mentioned much on Free Republic anymore.

Personally, I will NEVER buy one of her books again. Not that it makes much difference to her, but, for me, NO MORE COULTER ( or Beck)!

I think media personalities have the same vulnerabilities as career politicians: Their livelihood depends on them having the right “appearance” or reputation. We can laugh it off if somebody calls us a - gasp! - birther. But it’s not so easy for somebody like Andrew Breitbart. I’ve got Breitbart’s refusal to cover this issue posted on my blog. It made me mad that they wouldn’t touch it. I understand why. He’s building a reputation and can’t afford to go out on a limb.

The same thing happens in Washington DC. The politicians go in there wanting to do good stuff I think, for the most part. But once they’re there they have to “fit in”. That means dancing exactly how the media in that fish-tank wants you to dance. I think that’s what Scott Brown was doing with Barbara Walters. The fish tank is dying in its own muck-infested water.

They need a constant flow of fresh water. They need constant accountability to people outside the fish tank - people whose livelihoods don’t depend on Barbara Walters doing a softball interview because she *likes* you.

I don’t think our lawmakers were ever intended to be career politicians. I think it makes the watering hole stink and fester.

That’s why I think that the whole story of Obama’s eligibility needs to get out there. I think it is a microcosm of the dysfunctional ecosystem we have in Washington DC - an ecosystem that puts the rest of us decent folks at risk and footing the bill while powerless to change the ecosystem. We can send in different fish but that fish will soon be pooping up the tank just like everybody else. The system itself is dysfunctional, and I think it’s because the media is in bed with the politicians to take the rest of us for a ride. That has to be exposed.

Don’t be too harsh on them — they’ve got to eat. And they like to eat well and a lot.

At least we are finding out now who are those in whom we can trust in the fox hole with us when things get tuff, and those in whom we can’t trust.
