Ann Coulter Slams Ivins, Keller, Hillary, Couric in Latest Column

Ann Coulter offered more mean-spirited commentary in her latest Universal Press Syndicate column posted Wednesday night.

In a Q&A with herself, Coulter asked: "How would your career be different if you looked like [liberal Creators Syndicate columnist] Molly Ivins?" Coulter answered: "I'd be a lot uglier."

The conservative Universal columnist also called New York Times Executive Editor Bill Keller "(a) a complete moron or (b) a traitor," and said the "mainstream press is in economic trouble" because of "hysterical leftism that drove readers away."

Two other Coulter Q&As in her new column:

-- "Why is abortion sacrosanct to the left? Why have Democrats chosen this as their hill to die on? Why is evolution so important to liberals?" Her answer: "Because they basically want to depopulate the world of human beings, hence their love of abortion and their commitment to a belief system that does not distinguish men from lower beasts."

-- "Does Hillary Clinton have a good chance in 2008? What are her strengths and weaknesses?" Coulter's answer: "Good chance of what? Coming out of the closet? I'd say that's about even money. Her strength is her first name; her weakness is her last."

Coulter also said of UN Secretary General Kofi Annan: "Isn't he on the ground fighting with Hezbollah?" Of Joseph Wilson: "You mean Valerie Plame's clueless hubby? Whatever happened to that moron?" And of Katie Couric: "The affable Eva Braun of evening TV."

mean-spirited? Do they actually read Molly Ivins?

MI has been fighting cancer... breast cancer I believe.

"Ann Coulter offered more mean-spirited commentary"

Is it "mean spirited" or it just that she's dealing with mean spirits?

[Publius6961]

Actually Ann doesn't really do it for me. Too skinny.

Well, Skippy...
There's always Molly Ivins!

"And I think it jibes with Rush's comments lately that the country's big problem is that it's been almost completely feminized."

I've been saying that for some time now. I don't get a chance to hear Rush, but I work at a place that is run by women. Everything is touchy feely. If someone is out of line, everyone is punished to avoid bruised feelings... and on and on.

Now we want war, without death. We want negotiation with those that would never compromise. All because we want to be nice. We're feminized.

Women are great. Good complements to men, not direct equivalents, (replacements).

They left off one of the best Q & A's of the entire article:

Q: The last time we spoke, you told me you're routinely misquoted by newspaper reporters. What are a couple of the more egregious examples? Why does this happen?

A: It happens so much, I don't even keep track of it anymore. The last one I remember was when I said "cutting the tax rate on capital gains seems to have increased tax receipts for fiscal 2006, just as supply-side economics predicted it would." It came out in the paper as, "I worship Adolf Hitler and share all of his goals, especially the 'final solution' to the 'Jewish problem.'"

I have no idea how it happens, given the strict objectivity and rigid nonpartisanship of the American media.

Let me know if you would like to be on the Ann Coulter ping list.

I have a reputation with the mods for starting Anna Kournikova and Catherine Zeta-Jones threads. Since you're asking, I probally would say that the prettiest woman in the world is a tie between Jennifer Connelly & Jessica Alba

You certainly have good taste!

[SAJ]

Nah. Definitely the answer is

(c) All of the above

EEUUUUUUUUWWW

[brownsfan]

"What is it, the tilted eyes?"

Wow, I thought this was in good fun, didn't realize you're racist.

[RoadTest]

"I love Ann...She is so funny and outrageous. Very needed in this dead PC world!"

I couldn't agree more.

[steve8714]

Connelly used to be beautiful, 30 pounds heavier. Now she's in the Skeletor brigade with Courtney Cox.

[hosepipe]

Ugh Ugh Ugh... The next democrat presdential candidate coming out of the closet as a "LESBIAN".... ugh ugh ugh..

Would not be news to Ellen Degeneres but to most democrat ditzs and other Harpocrites that watch Oprah it might be..

Just think of the laughter coming from worldwide muzzies.. whether she was elected or not..

Worse than babblefish! Even...

[Froufrou]

Sorry, you took that the wrong way or else I should've been more careful. I think almond eyes are very pretty. I envy her for the pretty eyes.

[jellybean]

That's the only way I get to read Ann's columns...

You can read them at her website...AnnCoulter.com

[MNJohnnie]

Go ANN! About time someone finally shot back at these clowns! Especially Marxist Molly

[Arrowhead1952]

I know she has, but she has always had that liberal hack look. She just looks worse now. I remember some time ago, she was in Austin for a fund raiser with robin rather. There was a picture of the two on the front page of the city / metro section. They both looked awful. Some things never change.

[ichabod1]

I thought Rush had been saying the big problem was liberal guilt.

[brownsfan]

"Sorry, you took that the wrong way "

Probably did. No damage done. I don't know if I have a certain look I like, but I just think Michele is cute, in a sexy way. :)
