So, one point is possibly incorrect, therefore she is a witch and the body of her work is by implication false?

Nope. The article is premised on the contention that Ann Coulter has never said anything as bad as the worst things a motley collection of liberals have said. But, in fact, Coulter has indeed said something equivalent to what one of them has said. So we have to conclude the article's conclusions are based on faulty premises.

I myself think defending someone, by claiming they're not as bad as the worst I can think of on the other side, is not much of a defense, but that's just me. "Ann Coulter - as far as we know, she has never strangled a puppy!"

I doubt you are either a professor or right-wing. More probably a troll.

Dear Right Wing Professor

Like most professors you are not as smart as you think. You wrote something that is false.You wrote:

"The article is premised on the contention that Ann Coulter has never said anything as bad as the worst things a motley collection of liberals have said."

This is patently not true. The premise of the article is that what Ann Coulter said should not causing the wringing of hands and gnashing of teeth by conservatives and Republicans since liberals and Democrats are never apolegetic about their colleagues who say things that are worse.

So by your own ridiculous standard you are discredited because what you said is false.

As far as what Tremoglie wrote, it is true Coulter mentioned assassination and a Democrat president. He was incorrect about that. Does it discredit his piece?

No. His point is, as far as he is concerned, what Coulter did or did not say does not matter.

Tremoglie wrote:

" I have not read Coulter’s book. I don’t know what she wrote. As I said, it does not matter. It could never be worse than what liberals and Democrats have said about conservatives and Republicans...I do know that conservatives and Republicans need not apologize for her. At least not until liberals and Democrats apologize for their diatribes...So pardon me if I do not get so outraged by anything that Ann Coulter may have written in her new book, Godless: The Church of Liberalism. I am so used to the vicious, hateful, mean-spirited, despicable, invective of Democrats and liberals that anything a conservative would say about liberals can only be considered reciprocity. "

If you have any facility with reading comprehension you would know this. Obvioiusly you do not and therefore what you say does not matter!

LIke I said your like most professors not as smart as you think.
