Two points: Ann Coulter had the Cahones to take on a sacred cow in Max Cleland because Cleland was out there viciously attacking George Bush. Bravo for having the guts to do it. Second: Conason takes the "right" approach by striking back with (feigned) outrage.

The REPUBLICANS should learn from both. Politics ain't bean bag. It's worth fighting over. My take on Max Cleland is "if you don't want none, don't bring none." He was tough enough in Vietnam, he's tough enough to savage the Commander in Chief in time of war, so he should be tough enough to take Ann Coulter's response. The democrats love to ravage you to pieces and then cry about how "mean" you are to them.

The gloves have to come off, no doubt about it. Cleland gets no sympathy from me because he has marginalized himself by becoming this poster boy for the far left. He lost in Georgia because he voted against the Dept. of Homeland Security at the request of big labor and because 2002 was a GOP landslide in Georgia. Instead of acknowledging that he lost because he put big labor ahead of America, he blames GOP "attacks" and seeks sympathy for his injuries. He already has been given his sympathy by the people of Georgia who elected him to a job he wasn't qualified for, US Senate. One only gets so much sympathy for blowing oneself up. He voted against America and was punished by losing re-election.
