Nasty words to columnist (Ann Coulter) hit home
Source: Miami Herald/Palm Beach Post

Conservative columnist Ann Coulter is nationally notorious for vitriolic broadsides, but she has been unnerved by invective she received at her Palm Beach home. So much so that she got the county property appraiser to remove her name from public records identifying where she lives.

In doing so, she won an exemption from public disclosure of her address, allowed by law for victims of stalkers or harassment.

Coulter, 45, has called Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards a ''faggot'' and said she wished he would be killed by terrorists. She once said President Clinton ''could be a lunatic'' and wrote of a group of widows of men killed in the World Trade Center that she had 'never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much.''

So maybe it came as no surprise when somebody delivered a greeting card to her home in March with this salutation: ``You self-aggrandizing -- sociopath!! The only thing left after a nuclear war are you and cockroaches.''

1. Was it really necessary of them to slander cockroaches by association

They are just living their lives with no malice towards anyone

50. I dunno...
The little fuckers don't want to seem to stay out of my kitchen.

But given the choice between roaches in my kitchen and Coulter, I'll stick with the roaches.

They're less disease-ridden.

Karma sucks, and I'll be you deserve worse than what you're getting.

7. "You self-aggrandizing -- sociopath!!"
That seems quite mild compared to the kind of invective she hurls at other people. It's also fairly accurate. I don't see what the problem is.

Edited on Mon Nov-26-07 12:21 PM by treestar
That is not only not rising to the level of harassment or stalking, it's true!

Then there is the issue of how it's not as bad as what she says about others.

All in all:

:nopity: for Coutergeist.

8. Ah - obviously, the correct etiquette is to write a book insulting people
rather than just sending them a note. Got it, Ann - you can charge thousands of dollars for speeches slandering people, but when a letter is delivered to you with some insults, you have to waste taxpayers' money by calling in the police.

This is libertarianism in action - charge money for insulting people, spend public money when you're insulted. We nasty socialists on DU do it for free, of course, which is un-American.

Much more civilized than about a hundred psychotic insults and threats she has made to others.

56. I honestly don't care what happens to Coulter or Malkin.
These two are about the worst of the current right-wing craposphere, at least among the crazies who get national attention. At this point, they have both forfeited my sympathy forever.

I don't care if their houses get burned down. In fact, I don't ever want to hear about either of them any more.

57. Hey, they had no problem with publishing Michael Moore's home address
on the internet. Nor photos of it. Nor, evidently, photos of his family members. Along with exhortations to "do something" - if I recall correctly. For THEM it's okay. But let there be one "bee-yotch" diss and she runs whining to City Hall. I'm surprised she didn't seek Supreme Court intervention the way bush did against Al Gore.

18. I live a few miles away from both Coulter and Limbaugh
They live in Palm Beach proper (the town on the island) and we live..well on the other side of the intracoastal waterway. What I think would be the ultimate act of poetic justice would be for THEIR houses to be swept into the Atlantic ocean. The beaches are disappearing at an alarming rate and rush lives right on the beach side-another couple of seasons like the last few and the ocean will be lapping up in his living room. Ask Rush, he'll tell you there's no such thing as global warming and that Al Gore is a lunatic for suggesting it.

26. Go expletive yourself?!?
- Hmmm... that sounds like it could be painful. She should definitely try it! But I must say that Ann has shown herself to be a big ol' wussy here, running away from her fans like this. After all, she's an World Champion Attention Whore. ISN'T THIS WHAT SHE WANTED?!?!?!

Its not like they're attacking her character, since there's nothing there. And like a slimy cockroach, she scurries away as soon as the lights come on and runs under the radar of anonymity in the hopes that these attacks won't escalate. At least not before she can add them to her next book.

But I suppose that she has good reason to be afraid. I mean with people sending her nasty post cards, and calling her unlisted phone number... and dropping by her house to scream out expletives at her.... where will it all end???




- How bout a big ol' K&R!!!

53. Be careful, she might think you mean rendering like this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_(food_processing) (beware! link leads to disambiguation page)
Rendering is a process that converts waste animal tissue into stable, value-added materials. Rendering can refer generally to any processing of animal byproducts into more useful materials, or more narrowly to the rendering of whole animal fatty tissue into purified fats like lard or tallow. Rendering can be carried out on an industrial, farm, or kitchen scale.

32. Her book must not be doing well
so she drums up some publicity on some silly greeting card. She must get hate mail all the time. This can't be the first time.

Being called a sociopath is pretty mild in the context of the crap she's thrown out there. It's a pretty accurate discription of Coulter IMHO. She has no conscious, no sense of empathy and feels completely justified in her outrageous comments. And really, why shouldn't see? People pay money to hear her blather on.

Look at all the attention she got from this one greeting card. She's loving it. Back in the spotlight again, aren't you Ann.

52. The vitriol and insults (and wishes for folks extermination) she has hurled
is far worse than what is reported as being hurled at her.

On the one hand, I do empathize that folks taking their arguments and vitriol to her home would be frightening. However, I find some of her writings as almost invoking her following to act in similar ways against her targets of vitriol.

Isn't that what they call, in the literary world... irony?

Don't count me as suggesting that harrasment at home is okay.... but it is ironic, in this case. Sadly, I doubt she will take a check of her own behavior and trim back any of her own attacks that work to insight her following to act and engage in the same behavior, based on her vitriol.
