Coulter has to stay in the public eye and this is just one way of doing it. This is known in the business as 'staying fresh' even when your act has not changed.

But if you honestly think people hate Coulter then you are operating under some sort of illusion that anyone cares enough about him to hate him.

Laughers got to laugh is a bit more to the point. And if Conservatives are stupid enough to set themselves up to be a national joke..... Is that my fault?

If you can't see it by now, no way am I going to be able to walk you through it.

BTW, I accept the fact that Coulter is a woman, if a skinny one with a noticeable adam's apple. One thing that caught my eye /ear early on was when she went on about the 'girly men' who couldn't get the job done in Vietnam. The woman looks like she couldn't fend off a female high school volleyball player and yet she has the gall to go on about men who realized at some point that there was no victory to be had in Vietnam, that those who thought there was were operating, like Coulter, under some fanatical self assurance about exactly how things work in all parts of the world.

In other words you have no example of individuals that she hates.

I had lunch with a guy just today who was, when he retired, very high up in the Marines. This guy is 76 and looks like he could whip you with one hand tied behind his back.

He said he can remember the precise moment when he understood there was no way the US was going to prevail in Viet-Nam. He would not go into the details, but he said it was in the middle of a fight.

This guy is also a rock ribbed Conservative in his political views and reminds me a lot of Eisenhower in his thinking. He also lives in the real world and his opinions of Dick Cheney are not fit for family viewing.

He said he learned to live with the ignorant thoughts of those who were not there and therefore could never hope to understand what the situation really was, but the thing that bothers him about them is that they should be able to pick up a book and read some history written by those why were there and not just pretend to know what they are talking about. He does not feel anger towards people like Coulter; he only feels pity.

I told him I still thought Coulter was a joke and that there was big money in playing to the fantasy lives of people who thought they were smarter than everyone else. He said that could be. All he knew was he went to war and to this day cannot figure out why.

Now that's good. It shows that someone is using their imagination. One might not agree with what is expressed, but at least it is expressed in a complicated and thoughtful way.

For those of you that are having trouble with the concept: If you don't know who the lady is none of it makes sense. If you do know then it is funny.

There's one floating around the interwebs that says "Thanks Obama"

BTW, one of Ms. Coulter's more memorable quotes is the one for September 11 widows:

These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzies. I have never seen people enjoying their husbands’ death so much.

I know. I just enjoy proving him wrong. Now he cannot say that she does not hate. Her own words contradict his delusion

It's not so much individuals though it's clear she hated Clinton. She was practically Paula Jones' sponsor for years. I've seen enough of her remarks on the tube and read numerous excerpts from her books (I have 'Treason' on the shelf right now - got it for 27 cents + shipping on the web) to get a drift of her style. I don't want to research it for you. I spent too much time just typing this post.

I met guys like that before I made my decision to stay out, well, lower in rank than that, and met more after the war, two of them Lts. but not higher rank than that. Ho Chi Minh originally calculated that they could lose 10 of their men to every one of ours and still prevail. By the time we quit, they were at about 20 of theirs to every one of ours and were still going.

Correct! I have a VERY short ignore list these days, but Ms. Tree is one of the three people on it.

So are you of an age that you missed the draft, or did you just dodge it?
