Conservative author Ann Coulter is firing back at Sen. Hillary Clinton, after the former first lady attacked her for being "vicious [and] mean-spirited" towards a group of politically active 9/11 widows.
"I think if she's worried about people being mean to women she should have a talk with her husband," Coulter told radio host Sean Hannity, who was hosting a book signing for the conservative firebrand on Long Island.
"This is, I remind you, Bill Clinton's wife," Coulter added. "[And I'm the one who's] mean to women?"
Earlier in the day, Mrs. Clinton complained about Coulter's attacks on the Jersey Girls, a group of 9/11 widows who blamed President Bush for the attacks that killed their husbands and who campaigned for John Kerry in 2004.
"Perhaps [Coulter's] book should have been called 'Heartless,"' the top Democrat 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."
An angry Clinton added that she found it "unimaginable that anyone in the public eye could launch a vicious, mean-spirited attack on people whom I've known over the last four and a half years to be concerned deeply about the safety and security of our country."
But Coulter told Hannity: "She may know the 9/11 widows, but you and I know Juanita Broaddrick" - a reference to one of Mr. Clinton's accusers.
Coulter delivered her broadsides against Mrs. Clinton as a phalanx of TV and print reporters looked on.
The heavy coverage was prompted by the New York Daily News, which frontpaged Coulter's comments on the Jersey Girls in Wednesday editions.
"She was great! I was so mad at O'Reilly that I sent 2 pithy emails. He just doesn't get it."
I didn't think O'Reilly was that bad. He agreed with what she said but disagreed with the way she said it.
ROTFL! I just love this chick! She always knows the right thing to say! Perfect response!
Hillary may have balls; but we AAAAALLLLL know that there are NO brains in balls!
;-)
How would she sell her books otherwise? Coulter is like Howard Stern or Don Rickles. Being reasoned and rational wouldn't sell book one. She can't carry on a calm debate or any other discourse without personal attacks, her fans wouldn't believe her if she tried. She's an act, like Michael Moore is an act. And a very good one at that. Both of them make a ton of money off the personae that they adopt.

Clinton's criticism of Sista Soljah took slightly more nerve. Soljah's fans were part of Bill Clinton's base. No way could Coulter's fan be considered Hillary Clinton's base.
Great comment. Most likely not too far from the truth at all.
Coulter. The audience was treated to the southbound end of an northbound Coulter, running for her life.
What appearances did Coulter cancel since then knowing that at each one she'd be harassed, threatened and attacked by the rabid liberal left.
The rabid left attacking the rabid right. An interesting metaphor.
Dude! I just died laughing and woke up the kids. That was hilarious.
Non-Sequitor is a good moniker for you because your replies to Tail Gunner Joe don't make sense...for an adult, anyway.
nice pik! yowsah!!
Thanks for posting the whole thing here so I don't have to go to Newsmax and see the floor humper guy.
Sock it toe, Ann!
They have it coming and a lot more!
SS was a 'throw away' cuz who else was the left going to vote for?? As usual, he used an African-American to politically advance.
