If you read her entire article, it is very, very apparent that Ann wrote this column with the grief over the death of a friend still tearing at her heart. If this is anyone's fault it is NRs for not editing or delaying the piece to allow her to calm down and focus. They allowed her pure "stream of consciousness", still dripping with agony, hurt and shock, to go out. And it was probably on purpose. In my opinion, they took advantage of her emotional nature to create an excuse to get rid of her.

Ann Coulter is, in my opinion, still the most honest - and best looking - voice for true conservatism in this country.

This is the most pertinent comment I've seen to date. If Ann's comments were so "bad" or her writing so "unprofessional," then why the f#ck did National Review allow them to be printed?

If what you say is true, then why hasn't Ann apologized for or said that she regretted her remarks? Instead, she goes on national tv (on Bill Maher's show, of all outlets!) to diss National Review. I think Jonah did the right thing, and I am disappointed that Ann is claiming censorship -- as a Constitutional lawyer, she certainly knows what the real meaning of censorship is.
