In or out of context, the remark to the Vietnam vet is the only thing Ann has said (that I know of) that has shocked me, and that I can see no justification for. It reminds me of something the vile Abbie Hofmann said on TV around 1970:
he was on Kup's Show, and one of the other people around the table was gossip columnist Virginia Graham. The discussion touched on her battle with cancer and how she was beating it. Hofmann said "Cancer? You're a walking advertisement for it". This remark was allowed to pass as if no one was sure whether or not it was a compliment or a
vicious personal judgement.
