If You Hate Ann Coulter, Then You Hate Democracy

Really!

Okay, not really. But check this out.

It's got the usual exaggeration for comic effect that we've all come to know and love (or hate) from Ann Coulter, based, as usual, on a solid premise. But I'll let the conclusion speak for itself:

"Chuck Schumer could be the last Democrat in the Senate and the new rule would be: Unanimous votes required for all Senate business. But at least we could count on Sens. Lindsey Graham, Mike DeWine, John McCain, John Warner, Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins and Lincoln Chafee to strike a deal forcing Schumer to agree not to block the 99 other senators except in 'extraordinary circumstances.'"

By the way, I really like the horizonal rule.

Anne is probably not getting any of the horizontal tango. She just needs to let loose.

Actually, I was referring to this:

Besides, I'm sure Anne Coulter gets mad laid. What do you think the Young Republicans are for?

The refreshing thing about Anne is that she does not mince words. When so many on the right bob and weave and act PC based upon the left's definition, she charges out like a bull in a china shop.

The left calls her many things and even resorts to physical intimidation to shut her up. Why? Because they really cant argue with her on an intellectual level.

All very true. To be fair, though, I'd like to point out that Ann doesn't really specialize in intellectual debate. Don't get me wrong: she has a powerful intellect, which she focuses quite effectively on her work, but her essays aren't really what you'd call "intellectual". She makes too extensive use of exaggeration, for an intellectual debate to be possible. But that's okay with me. I don't read her for intellectual effect; I have other places to go for that. I read her for comedy effect, of the "it's funny because [I think] it's true" variety.

I'd really like to know what some others have to say about the thesis of this piece, though.

That is very true. I guess in that, she really is seeking confrontation with liberals. For if she wrote intellectual columns - 1: not many would be published, and 2 - she would not have the audience.

Guess she is smarter than the average intellectual too!
