Your points don't actually answer my question. Even so,I don't agree with your framing of the the issue anyway...In short, I want her to point out the emperor has no clothes no matter who it embarrasses.

In other words, you don't care if she plays into the stereotype of conservatives being mean-spirited and hateful, because you feel that by being obnoxious, she's serving a useful purpose. Do I understand what you are saying?

I'm saying it's a fools errand to try to avoid it, because the libs are the ones who invented and propagate the stereotype anyway. Why would you play right along with them.

Ann is NOT obnoxious, but you'd never know that if the only people you listen to are the people who's entire focus on Linda Tripp was how "ugly" she is.

Wear it as a badge of honor. Any stereotype they like. Their criticism honors those they try to smear.
