How in the world can you claim to know Ann's intent? That is what I was "getting at." I don't have nearly enough money to offer for you to get yourself a clue! I'll phone Greenspan, and see if I can't gather up some dough as a contribution. I really hate not being able to provide badly-needed help to the ignorant.

The word "satire" has a specific meaning. It is simple to compare the meaning of the word with a specific piece of writing and to determine whether or not that writing fits the definition of "satire". No psychic abilities required at all. Coulter's comments were not satire.

See my #268.

Let me add that nowhere does Ann say that she is being satirical here. That is YOUR assumption. Are YOU deriving her intent by psychic means?
