Mystery of the Ages (Now Ann Coulter has liberals in an uproar over her age) lolrof
WP ^ | 9/6/2002 | Lloyd Grove

Is Human Uzi Ann Coulter 38 or 40 years old? And when she insists that she's the former, is she telling a fib? The right-wing media scourge – who has been getting plenty of ink for her best-selling book, "Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right" – frequently scorches hapless reporters who dare write that she's no longer in her thirties. Newsday's Aileen Jacobson – who was planning to rely on numerous published accounts, including People magazine's, that Coulter is 40 – let her subject argue her into using the younger age in a recent profile. "Media accounts that she's 40 are wrong, she maintains," Jacobson wrote. But yesterday Jacobson told us: "I do believe that she is 40." London Telegraph writer Toby Harnden, meanwhile, wrote in his July 19 piece: "An air of mystery surrounds Coulter's age. She says she is 38 but her publicist puts her at 40. After the interview, she sends me an e-mail: 'I think you should go with one of the incorrect younger ages.' " Our own investigation revealed that: * Coulter's Connecticut driver's license lists her birth as December 1961. * Her D.C. driver's license, acquired many years later, says she was born in December 1963. * The birth date on file at the New Canaan, Conn., voter registration office is Dec. 8, 1961. In an effort to clear up all this confusion, a member of The Post's crack research team phoned the New Canaan registrar of voters, who chuckled, checked his records and reported that Coulter registered to vote in 1980, when presumably she was the legal minimum voting age of 18. That would make her 40 today. But when we reached Coulter, she predictably stuck to her guns. "It's like the difference in being thrown off the 13th floor or the roof," she e-mailed us. "So the upside is, I'm two years younger than at least some newspapers have said I am, but the downside is, I'm still 38. Yikes!"

If I had to guess by her looks, I'd say 28.

It seems the liberals are practicing ageism if they even think it's an issue. Ann looks better than any democrat woman of any age and that's what's bothering them. Hillary never looked good, she was uglier in her college days than she was in her 40's after the doctors helped her out.

To Ann Coulter;
No, Ann the upside is that your book is so tight that they can't attack the book but wanting attack something after your smarting wit, they attack YOUR AGE by 2 years.... 2 years is important at 15 but not at over 35....

This is hilarious.
The progressive marroons must be hissy-fit to be tied if they are attacking her age now.

What a bunch of kindergarten mentality retards.

And we actually waste time reporting it?
Can't make up stuff this good...

>>>We must re-pot her in a stretch of Pacific-Northwwest rainforest immediately. <<<

You ain't re-poting Helen in my stretch of the Pacific Northwest without a fight. We already have enough spotted owls.

I think the price to kill a murderer is over $10,000,000.00.
The price to house them for life is about $3,000,000.00.

I think few if any real bad guys who get life are released. They would as you say, only kill again.

Until conservatives go for what they do in parts (like Democrats), they will have more losses than wins! IMO

Obviously Ann has struck a nerve in the world of liberals! She is being attacked on all fronts by the elite media who are angry that someone would dare tell the truth about them and their politicians of choice. She must be jumping for joy!

They're acting awfully catty for men, of course democrat men are mostly gays or latent gays. They're jealous of how she looks.

"Ann Coulter is 38 or 40 years old?"

To quote B.C:
"Well, it all depends on what the meaning of 'IS' is."

I am just happy that Ann Coulter 'IS'!

She's more Real Man (honest adult) than many of them will ever be...and they'll NEVER be as feminine...

...which bugs them to tears. She'd giving them the casual dope-slap they deserve, and wear so well.

Wait a minute everyone!

Shouldn't the liberals be championing her for mistating her age?

After all, one of the pillars of liberalism isn't what the facts are, but it is what you feel.

So, since she might not "feel" 40, but 38, it flies in the face of logic to say she "is" (thank you Bill) 38.

My grandmother has always said that a lady's age is no one's else's business.

No one will ever convict a leftist of having manners.

Lloyd Grove writes a gossip column, and Ann Coulter appearing to lie about her age is certainly gossip. Frankly, I think it's silly for Ann to lie and say she's 38 -- she looks great for 40, and there's no reason to lie about a measly two years in age.

I don't think Ann is lying about her age being 38. I think she graduated from Mich law school in 1988, & assuming she went straight from undergrad in spring of '85 to Mich in fall of '85, she'd have been 25 when she finished law school in '88. That makes her 38 now - until her birth date in December. And that math is based upon the "usual" age one starts and finishes undergrad -- 18 & 22, respectively. If she took a shorter route through Cornell (ie, finished in less than 4 yrs), then she's even younger.

But like my grandmother always said, "A lady never has to tell her age."
