As a proud “Crank”, I ( personally) will never willingly give Coulter another dime of my money.
LOL
My local paper dropped Ann’s column under pressure from a few lefties after she criticized the Jersey Girls exploitation of their husband’s deaths on 9/11 for their own leftist politics. I remind them periodically of how much their circulation has dropped since they dropped Ann. It probably won’t do any good, but I enjoy rubbing their liberal noses in their own failure.
Ann will do just fine without your dime. Meanwhile, you will remain ignorant, uninformed, and humor challenged.
I use our newspapers to wrap presents throughout the year, craft projects, under arts and crafts to contain messes, packing fragile items etc. I can’t remember the last time I actually read one. I do my reading online.
The thing is that I think Ann Coulter is the smartest person in the room. Whatever room she’s in. I really respect her intellect, no insult at all to Steyn or Sowell.
A nickel here, a nickel there. It’s amazing how those dimes add up!
I used to think so, before I considered what "PC" means and where it came from.
"Politically correct" means *prospective* constraints on speech, where you self-censor, then censor others, based on the anticipated punishment for something you were going to have said.
Ann, by coming out and saying something even worse than the (false) accusations which would have been used to silence conservatives, for much less than what she herself said, acts to purchase conversational "breathing room" against accusations of "Crimethink."
We owe her all a great deal.
Cheers!

Slightly different audiences...
Same message...
Different delivery...
There is a RELIGIOUSLY Correct as well - an OPRAHisation of 'religion' where we all sing Kumbaya and just get along; no matter WHAT heretical (compared to Christianity) 'beliefs' are being bandied about.
There is a fierce group of Religious Warriors on FR that has had enough and are speaking out to SUPPORT Christianity in much the same manner of these columnists mentioned in this thread.
Thanks for the bump to a great thread!
Amen to that!
