You might want to get your affairs in order.

Haven't We All Had Enough of Ann Coulter?

Reported by Marie Therese - June 07, 2006

Last night on their show Sean Hannity and Alan Colmes gave the Mistress of Mean, Ann Coulter, not one but two segments to discuss her new book, Godless: The Church of Liberalism. Earlier in the day as I was driving and listening to Ed Schultz on Air America, he explained to his listeners that even though he'd been offered a chance to interview Coulter, he'd turned it down. Why? Because, basically, she's got nothing new to say. After last night, I agree with him.

In the new book Coulter shocked many when she made inflammatory and callous statements about the 9-11 widows who oppose George Bush and the war on Iraq:

" These self-obsessed women seem genuinely unaware that 9-11 was an attack on our nation and acted like as if the terrorist attack only happened to them. They believe the entire country was required to marinate in their exquisite personal agony. Apparently, denouncing bush was part of the closure process.

"These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by griefparrazies. I have never seen people enjoying their husband’s death so much."

After announcing that Coulter deliberately chose the Day of the Antichrist - 06-06-06 - to launch her book, Hannity immediately did a belly-flop into a pool of supposition and blamed "liberals" for the murder of Clemson student Tiffany Souers, whose mother they had just interviewed. He conflated the Souers case with Coulter's chapter about Willie Horton. Horton was a murderer released on a weekend furlough under a program approved by Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis. Horton then used his furlough to assault a man and rape his fiancee.

When Dukakis ran against George H. W. Bush in 1988, the Bush campaign, which was being largely directed by his campaign manager, Lee Atwater, working closely with the candidate's youngest son, George W. Bush, seized on this and plastered the airwaves with a now-infamous ad in which they painted Dukakis as too soft on crime.

Using the Horton case, Coulter has claimed in her book that there is a "general compulsion" among liberals to "free criminals."

COULTER: "I can ass

I can assure you it wasn't a conservative legislature or a conservative judge who was releasing these guys."
