That would be a good thing! However, I think truth is worth more than lies and deceit.
In her book, Coulter writes that Democrats "choose only messengers whom we're not allowed to reply to. That's why all Democratic spokesmen these days are sobbing, hysterical women. You can't respond to them because that would be questioning the authenticity of their suffering." As an example, she cites the Jersey Girls, four World Trade Center widows who argued for the commission to investigate 9/11. Then she directly questions the authenticity of their suffering, saying they are "reveling in their status as celebrities... I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' death so much." The comments caused an all-too-expected firestorm, even ensnaring Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, who should have known better. "Perhaps her book should have been called Heartless," Senator Clinton said. "I know a lot of the widows and family members who lost loved ones on 9/11. They never wanted to be a member of a group that is defined by the tragedy of what happened."Of course they didn't. But Clinton went some way toward confirming the very thing Coulter had alleged: that certain kinds of discourse -- caustic, yes; outrageous, yes; illiberal, certainly -- are not allowed.
Why Ann Coulter Matters

Notice that instead of questioning the underlying premise, that hillary clinton is smart, the left always assumes her act of stupidity is an aberration. (The same holds for the stupid acts of the other clinton.)
Ann Coulter, 'Four Witches', One 'Bitch' + The New McCarthyism of the Left
I'LL SEE ANN COULTER'S 'BILL CLINTON RAPE CHARGE' AND RAISE HER 'ONE HILLARY CLINTON'
The best post I've read about the AC vs HC is:
"Tell Hillary she'd better put some ice on that. You know what I'm talking about!!"
You know, you could have avoided this thread and replied on, or even started, one of those insightful screeds about rock stars.
Mia, You are wonderful! I love to read each and every one of your posts. Keep it going. please!
That is so sweet of you. Thanx. :)
If anyone has the right to make strong statements, it is Ann considering the attempts, including physical threats, the left has made to prevent her from expressing her views.
She must be effective in stating her position. Why else would the left be in such as frenzy to stop her? You do not bother to do it to such extreme to someone ineffective.
I agree with you.
I am quibbling with style, not substance. I am actually guilty of the same thing. It's hard to separate satire and literal rage when you are doing it in real time.
I know what you mean.
fyi

The translation:
FIGHT OF THE YEAR, HEAVY WEIGHT HILLARY AGAINST FLYWEIGHT COULTER
fyi
I'm sure they are referring to physical weight, not intellectual.
Physical, for sure. ;)
If they are talking about weight, they are right. If they are talking about truth, character, integrity and smartness - Ann is no flyweight. As we saw with one truthful statement from Ann, hillary was silenced. A flyweight isn't capable of such power, but Ann is.
