Actually, he got her on the Bill Maher thing.
Ann likes Bill Maher, so she never lambastes him, yet he's every bit as reprehensible as Al Franken.
His premise for the piece was that she's red meat for the right, and he's right about that.
Ann Coulter's bombast doesn't influence anyone that's not already in agreement with her.
Fair enough..but the same thing can certainly be said of Bill.
My comment was based on the overall conversation. Bill skirted and dodged and tried to laugh things off. Well worth seeing again. Ann comes off well and doesn't give an inch.
She admits to "being red meat" for her point of view, "... I am trying to change people's minds ..." she said, and doesn't mind "hitting them in the nose."
His point, that she is only on par with her opponents -- no way, O'Reilly is wrong. Coulter uses fact, had serious points, and has a -real- sense of humor.
Note too, Coulter is responsive to questions and context. In order to be so, she is a good listener.
As for whether her bombast is effective, we'll have to wait and see. I think it is. It enrages the opposition to idiocy, and sets a high standard for "believers" to listen, speak clearly, and rely on facts.
