Ann Coulter Finally Learns The Power Of Words - Ads Being Pulled From Her Site
Â
Ann Coulter is feeling the pain of her words where it hurts most, her pocketbook. After her inflammatory remarks about Senator John Edwards, where she implies he's a bit light in the loafers using the derogatory term that rhymes with maggot, she is now enjoying the loss of advertisers on her site. Verizon, Sallie May and NetBank have asked to have their ads pulled from her site, and when I last checked, they were gone.Â
Those crazy cats over at the DailyKos lead the charge by posting contact information for the advertisers on Coulter's site. Which in a way, is an interesting object lesson in capitalism and democracy. If thine views offend, protest for some action, and hit them where it hurts. My heart swells with American pride. And indigestion, I better lay off those egg mcmuffins.
I won't pretend to like Ann Coulter. She's goofy and unstable.Â
In my world of moderation a person like her doesn't pop up too often, as she represents an ideology of intolerance far beyond that of the regular playa' hatin' I tend to deal in. She and her ilk don't like gays and filthy patchouli-soaked hippy liberals - and while they won't admit it -that dislike surely extends to blacks, immigrants and anyone who doesn't embrace their ideology. But what bugs me most about Ann, besides her barren and uninhabitable uterus, is she taints all conservatives and makes people fight each other over dumb words rather than real issues.
Plus she's distracting us from the real news: what's the Anti-christ up to in rehab?Â
