To be honest am not a big fan of Coulter's works. Pretty much follow a repetative pattern of listing how Rats are crazy, liars, hate the US, etc etc. Somewhat tiresome and depressing as we already know that and I really don't want to be reminded of that. Some of her newspaper articles are dynamite though. Her attacks during the Miers disgrace were excellent and stinging. And I seriously doubt she's been plagarizing. Now how about some pics? :> Rules u know!

For years, Ann's always going to have more trouble than she needed to incur from that one real stupid sentence (I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much).
Really poor judgment. (jmo)

"found them to be as trivial and meritless as they are irresponsible." That about says all that needs to be said.

They could be. Obviously they see Coulter as a threat who must be "dealt with" rather than challenged on the merits of her arguments. That's how the Left works.

Oh, well - another twist. Now plagiarism is not lifting a literary work or a scientific research
No.
Apparently, now it's a mentioning of the event that happened, like FBI foiling an islamic terrorist plot the other day...

lifted material from other sources. Ha! The liberals behind this BS determined that she "cribbed" from HER OWN COLUMNS (which is what columnists do when they write a book) and a Planned Parenthood website she was quoting to prove a point. They are simply DESPERATE.
Reason for the desperation? Time is running out on the '60s generation, and they have Bill Clinton, John Kerry, Al Gore and their various sycophants as the ne plus ultra of their existence -- none of whom history will treat kindly.
They keep trying for "legacy." It's there. Failure. All over the place.

You notice how the letter from Media Matters calls for Random House to pull the book from store shelves? That's what this is all about. Like the two Dumbocrat NJ Assemblywomen who called for NJ bookstores to ban her book. Libs can't mount a convincing counterargument to conservatives, so they resort to censorship. They're so afraid that if conservatives are allowed to talk, people will realize we're talking sense. But on the other hand, we conservatives know that the more libs talk, the more they shoot themselves in the foot.

let them keep creating bogus charges and controversy as my investment (autographed copy of GODLESS) keeps going up in value.
I saw an autographed copy listed on ebay for $65 dollars. Not bad. :)

Ann is an entertainer, not a great mind. But she's a conservative and that's her "sin." They're out to get her just like they're out to get Rush.

I'm the black sheep of the family, politically speaking.

2) well-displayed conservative books on the living room bookshelves, and
3) a picture of George and Laura Bush right inside the front door

I just ordered Coulter's book from Amazon. It will help me to keep my mouth shut when my vocally liberal, ACLU-member sister comes to visit next week.

Its trivial. I'm sure they checked into her sources before the book came out. As for the column, mere similarity of thought is NOT plagiarism. There has to be identical unattributed word-for-word copying of another's work. I'm sure after the rash of liberals we've seen busted for being less than truthful about how they wrote as well as what they wrote, it was a matter of time before Ann Coulter's work came under scrutiny. Let's hope she addresses this in her column next week.

The syndicator of Ann Coulter's newspaper column is looking into allegations that the right-wing pundit has lifted material from other sources. So what!
Ann is not a tenured professor at some leftist university. She, and others like her, are not proclaiming "original thought".
This is nothing more than an attempt by the moonbats to avoid debating her. They know she will destroy them eg Alan Clomes, so they are going to use the plagiarism defense to avoid defending their shallow excuse for intellect.
To: bugseye
So... what's the problem? If Coulter copies someone else's work, it's a rather simple matter to produce the passages that were copied and reference them, yet the Leftist swine have yet to do even that much.
No. They keep spewing about it, but they've yet to actually produce proof of anything.

All the Coulter haters want is to put the charge out there and doesn't matter if it's true or not, just get it out there in the media so people can think Ann is a plaigerist to discount her work.

That pretty much covers it.
