Anne Coulter is intelligent, articulate and many times “over the top”. My take is that she realizes that too many Conservatives want to “play nice”, with the Democrats. Problem is that the Democrats do not play nice. Perhaps , those Democrats of decades ago , as when Tip O’Neill and Ronald Reagan had a social hour ,( after hours), but not anymore. Now, the Democratic party has been taken over by the so-called elite intelligencia and far left ideologs, who lead their flock like the Pied Piper. No-one steps out of line since a united front leads to a stronger front.
I believe, when Anne sees the timidness, capitulation and even good manners of the Republicans towards the Democrats, she feels like many of us. She realizes that she is alone in rebuking their claims, actions and takeover of our so called free press. Her speeches or appearances bring attention to the timidness of our side and the over-the top claims/actions of the other side, ie. homosexual supporters during a demonstration, knocking a cross out of an elderly woman’s hands in San Fransisco. She states our outrage because we do not have the microphone and there seem to be no strong leaders, ( either in governemnt, universities, media or TV/films) that pound this beat , as well. She seems alone.
While I do not always agree with all she writes and says, she needs to be given credit for doing the work, taking the pie and living with bodyguards.
I read her new book, Guilty.

She is thought provoking and she provides facts...

She says here are the facts this is how I see it now go check it out for yourself if you don’t believe me. Its why she is a success!

Rod_Patrick Sunday, January 11th at 9:24AM EST (link)She separates her “facts” from her “opinions”…. which is very fair and sensitive of her (although she looks like an “Amazon” woman on TV, he he!)
I'm almost through the third chapter.
George Claghorn Sunday, January 11th at 8:36AM EST (link)Reading it slowly, because I don’t have too much free time, but so far, I think it’s her best book yet.
“Victory comes, though we know not when. We must be happy warriors until the end.
For those of you who struggle with what goes on, who see retreat and capitulation, and who feel like not just your political opponents, but those who hold dear all those things you hold as blasphemous — be cheerful. Be happy. Victory is already yours.
You must just have the courage to not get discouraged and have the will to fight on.” – Erick Erickson at RightOnline
FWIW it's worth it's Ann, not Anne

NightTwister Sunday, January 11th at 8:49AM EST (link)She cares about selling books, plain and simple. Her public and constant thrashing of McCain kept some fiscons home on election day. I hope she enjoys her new President on Jan. 20th. She worked hard to help elect him, no doubt so she could sell even more books.

not sure if I get this Twister...
jdub19 Sunday, January 11th at 9:26AM EST (link)she writes books and provides opinion and commentary for a living. She makes no bones about this ,,,
She doesn’t claim to be a torch bearer for the R party or Con movement…..
Her comments while at times are cutting, most of the time IMO she is dead on.
SHE kept FISCONS home?…. pretty weak….seems like the FISCONS stayed home on their own accord…..I’d be attacking the ones that stayed home.

Great, you admit she's an entertainer.
NightTwister Sunday, January 11th at 9:38AM EST (link)Sure seems like she tries to portray herself that way on news shows and in her column. But she only does that to sell books. As for her cutting remarks being dead on, sure I see that sometimes. I’ve also seen where she gives the other side talking points by going too far. But hey, she’s not a torch bearer for the Rs or Cs, right? Well, only when it helps her sell books….but I repeat myself.
As for fiscons staying home, yes, they have themselves to blame. That doesn’t mean self-proclaimed spokespeople for conservatives don’t have their own responsibility for driving people away (and if you’ve seen my previous comments here on RS, you’d know I’ve been harsh on those that stayed home or voted for Obama or 3rd party).

I never said that she was entertaining...
jdub19 Sunday, January 11th at 9:49AM EST (link)in fact, I find her voice, delivery, even looks pretty annoying. But hey, that’s my taste…
Having said that, I find that she very often is dead on with her analysis, and I find it rather refreshing to hear some one speak bluntly, to the point, and support with facts.

I agree Nocturnal Contortionist, but Ann Coulter's books
Mike gamecock DeVine Sunday, January 11th at 11:03AM EST (link)are superb in substantive content, esp in meticulously documenting the extremism of the dem party and just the so called far left.

“One man with courage makes a majority.” - Andrew Jackson
No argument there.
NightTwister Sunday, January 11th at 12:03PM EST (link)I just think it’s important to state frequently that people like Ann (and Rush, etc.) are primarily entertainers. Certainly they’re very useful, and can actually help drive policy, but at the end of the day they’re going to do what’s best for them, not Republicans or even Conservatives.
Get Connected in Colorado.
I agree with that, but especially with respect to Rush
Mike gamecock DeVine Sunday, January 11th at 12:11PM EST (link)what is best for Rush has usually been what is best for conservatives and the GOP but the GOP hasn’t followed that advice.
I think a better way to look at the term “entertainer” is that Rush runs a business that must make a profit and his pursuit of that profit motive seems to produce better content than the content produced by elected and party republicans, whatever their “power” or other motives.
So that what really matters is content, not what led to its production.
make sense?

The sad thing about this
JustLeaveMeAlone Sunday, January 11th at 4:15PM EST (link)is that your favorite newsstand is covered with magazines that look just like this, commemorating the Immaculate Inauguration of The One.
And there were, in our country, taxpayers toiling in the offices and fields and factories, keeping watch over their paychecks and their civil liberties by night and day.
And lo, an bought-and-paid-for mouthpiece of George Soros came upon them, and the glory of The One shown about them, and they should have been afraid.
And the Soros mouthpiece said unto them, Fear Not, for behold, we bring you great tidings of glad joy which shall be to all Americans! For unto you is inaugurated on January 20, in the City of the Potomac, The One, who is Barack, the magic, umm, wait, we can’t use that word.
And this shall be a sign unto you: you shall find The One organizing communities in Chicago, yet no stench of Chicago politics shall be upon him. He will be wrapped on soaring rhetoric, appearing on a stage, with Greek columns flanking.
And suddenly there was with the Mouthpiece of Soros hosts of MSM, praising The One and saying, Glory be! We have found The One who will bring us Peace on Earth, goodwill towards democrats!
Ok, enough; now I’ve made myself sick.

Good post!
Steve W Sunday, January 11th at 11:29PM EST (link)I’ve bought some of her books - and agree with the sentiment of the original post. I believe that she’s entertaining - I believe that she’s got nerve, and takes hits that most conservatives, or Republican’s don’t seem to want to take.
I believe that she often goes over the top - whether that’s for entertainment value, or because that’s just the way she is - I have no idea, but I’m glad someone (with a voice) does it.
The ultimate determinant in the struggle now going on for the world will not be bombs and rockets but a test of wills and ideas-a trial of spiritual resolve: the values we hold, the beliefs we cherish and the ideals to which we are dedicated.

cottoneyed Monday, January 12th at 8:32PM EST (link)about the repubican party, they are over! Ann, is a tremendous spokesperson for Conservatives, we are NOT over. She’s a bulldog, our side cannot have too many of them. The opponent is now the Democracy Alliance, 5 American hating leftists billionaires, who have bought the democrat party, lock, stock, and abortion on demand. They defeated the Clinton machine and inserted their hand picked socialist into the oval office. They are the future, they will say who runs, who wins, and what the agenda will be. They are spending $500M per year to further their socialist agenda, and they will damn sure get what they’ve paid for! Obambi can’t flush his morning turd without first receiving permission from his handlers. Conservatives better mean up, and mean up quickly. Rush, Mark, and Ann are the only Conservatives who get it. We are in a battle royal for the soul of the “home of the brave and the land of the free”. Nice ain’t gonna’ get it, either, from here on out it’s down and dirty because these American hating billionaire leftists, mean business, do we?
