Fairly Imbalanced

Boy, you just have to love that Ann Coulter. I mean, who doesn't want a talking Ann Coulter doll?

Her latest piece de resistance? Attacking 9/11 widows. Apparently she was sick of ripping on babies and puppies, so she needed to move to the next most evil thing:

In a new book, "Godless: The Church of Liberalism," Ms. Coulter accuses the women — who pushed the Bush White House to create a commission to investigate the government's failures before the 9/11 attacks — of being "self-obsessed" and acting "as if the terrorist attacks happened only to them."

"I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much," Ms. Coulter writes, according to The Associated Press.

"And by the way, how do we know their husbands weren't planning to divorce these harpies? Now that their shelf life is dwindling, they better hurry up and appear in Playboy," The Daily News quoted the book as saying.

[sarcasm]
Damn Harpies.
[/sarcasm]

In addition to pissing off both Hillary and George Pataki, the widows also chose to respond:

We are forced to respond to Ms. Coulter’s accusations to set the record straight because we have been slandered.

Contrary to Ms. Coulter’s statements, there was no joy in watching men that we loved burn alive. There was no happiness in telling our children that their fathers were never coming home again. We adored these men and miss them every day.

It is in their honor and memory, that we will once again refocus the Nation’s attention to the real issues at hand: our lack of security, leadership and progress in the five years since 9/11.
(Emphasis added)

Seriously, somebody needs to stop putting her on TV.

"Now that their shelf life is dwindling, they better hurry up and appear in Playboy". Some people need to heed their own advice. comment by  C, 6/15/2006 12:56 PM
