Letters to TIME in response to AnnTHRAX cover story

[devilgrrl]

Here's what the Freepers had to say:

Thank you for the story on Coulter. She's a gutsy woman who tells it like it is. We need more of that these days!

KATIE GRAHAM Grand Blanc, Mich.


Coulters's quick wit is the slap in the face that awakens us from the stupor of liberalism. Go girl, go! TIME'S story focused on her throwaway statements and missteps to the exclusion of her brilliant recovery in debate and the dazzling and unflinching acumen she displays as a guest television commentator.

LINDA GRACE STONE Palo Alto, Calif.


Instead of calling someone a big fat idiot or a lying liar, Coulter has elevated the put-down to an art form. Watching liberals squirm when she launches her attacks is a real pleasure.

1. This just makes me feeling like hacking up my supper.

Coulter calls dissent treason, and disenter to be imprisoned or worse and the airheads admire that.

[DulceDecorum]

4. If she doesn't off herself before too much longer,

then she will grow into an old bag
that is dependent upon immigrants for her food.
Bleeding-heart liberals will visit her in the nursing home and ring the bell when she soils herself.

Compassionate Conservative Republicans will tell her
that she is the reason why the Bush Maladministration failed.

2. My friend congratulated them on their choice for Man of the Year.

3. Ugh.

Brilliant recovery in debate and dazzling and unflinching acumen as a guest television commentator.

Yes, certainly we witnessed some wonderful examples of that wit and skill when she appeared on Maher's show.

This "woman" wouldn't recognize a proper comeback if it bit her on her bony butt.

5. Thanks for the link devilgrrl

One man very obviously needs glasses when it comes to determining if a woman is beautiful , but he did make a very good point about Annie "get your gun": <snip> It's sad that her fans are amused by her trashy mouth. It's even sadder to contemplate what it says about the state of our country when Coulter's brand of xenophobia passes for critical political thought.

6. Since when is it admirable to call descent treason?

And to call people traiters because you hate their ideology and not justify anything you say, but to simply insult people. People like this overgrown adolescent girl.

8. Well, this will just encourage Time

to print stories about more rightwing freaks, since they got positive feedback on this one...

10. Squirming liberals?

I think Mr. Greene is living in a fantasy world. No Liberal considers Coulter's opinions valid enough to expend the energy to squirm in response to them. If it makes him feel better to over-inflate her importance, well, good for him.

They all give her way too much credit. No one takes this poor, sad, emaciated, angry girl whose displaced hate is eating her alive like a cancer seriously.

She's an object of either pity or dismissal, and sadly, that's likely all she'll ever be.
