It is my guess that she is seeing the future of our country in the hands of the wrong leadership. It gives her great worry. Ann has worked so hard to get the message out with her writings. The way this country is going, maybe it seems to her that all of her efforts, all of the risks and all of the sacrifice pouring her life out in her writings have been in vain. Seeing what I see, I can imagine Ann being in a real nasty mood.
I too have bought all of Ann's books. Ann's latest book, Demonic is a gift to our political cause. Each line is a treasure and speaks of a patriot's dedication to the freedom of this generation and generations to come. I will always value her contribution and hold her in a special place in my heart.
Then why doesn't she get Sarah Palin? She is arguably American patriotism and courage personified. Makes absolutely no sense to me. Ann should by all rights be one of Sarah's biggest supporters.
The fact that Ann would go on national television spouting such demoralizing thoughts about Palin is downright mysterious, and says to me that something is terribly wrong with Ann.
I’ve not read demonic, but I heard an interview about it, and clearly it is a well researched work. Sadly, Coulter and those like her, often begin to believe their opinion is worth more than it actually is. Bill Mayher is also like that. You expect that sort of thing from liberals. Unfortunately, Ann wishes to garner the “intelligent respect” of the left, while keeping the adoration of those “conservatives” who think GOProud is a reasonable proposition. People like me, who believe there is no such thing as a homosexual conservative, are backward, intellectually challenged, and unfortunate to have to “deal” with. She lost me when she decided to be queen of the queens. But I still plan to read her book. Because, even though she would probably scoff at me, if she had to have a very long talk with me, I on the other-hand understand that true wisdom is sought not sold.

Yes, and her College BF from when she was at cornell is going through a midlife crisis too, and he hates her guts now.
Thank you, jonrick. But nothing has “happened” to Ann. She is the same brilliant writer and witty commentator she has always been, still the same lovely person if not more so.
A few opinions that we don’t agree with do not an enemy make.
I can’t believe the vitriol on this thread. We sure are good at turning like cornered rats on our loyal friends. I can’t even believe I’m on Free Republic right now, but I guess Palin worship trumps all.
And I guess that was what she was talking about. The spiteful comments on this thread have just proved her point.
