I Have a Headache

WASHINGTON -- Ann Coulter, the conservative pundit with a penchant for creating controversy, caused a ruckus when she called 9/11 widows "witches" and accused them of using their husbands' deaths for their own political gain.

It is just the latest of the high-emotion, sharp-rhetoric attacks that she has leveled in four previous books and frequent appearances on cable television programs. Her firebrand style even inspired NBC's "The West Wing" to create a "a blond, Republican sex kitten" in her mold. (Except that chick from the West Wing had some iota of sanity.)

In her latest book, Coulter criticizes the four New Jersey widows who pushed for an independent commission to investigate the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks that killed their husbands at the World Trade Center. The women also backed Democrat John Kerry's presidential candidacy in 2004.

"These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzis. I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much," Coulter wrote.

I had the misfortune of seeing this woman on the Today Show.  I really think that those who she actually advocates for should really not seek her services.  I saw a clip of her with Tucker Carlson.  You know that you have got to be out of your gourd when that guy looks at you like you are nuts. 

So, please GOP and "liberal" MSM, PLEASE stop paying attention to this severely insane person.  Stop making her legitimate.  She is on the same planet as Fred Phelps and David Duke.  She spit more hate and venom for women that actually had the nerve to be pissed off that their husbands died.  Ms. Coulter would have us all march in lock-step to the beat of the GOP.  How sad that she doesn't realize that to be an American is to ask questions and demand accountability from our government.  I guess it's okay to question all the Dems...

Pleeeeease...

Warming to Gore

The loser of the 2000 election may yet be the winner.

Al Gore in An Inconvenient Truth

The outcome of the 2000 presidential election looks increasingly like not just a fiasco, but a tragedy. Whether or not one concurs with the judgment of the historian Sean Wilentz that he may be the "worst President in history," George W. Bush has already done enough damage to America's position in the world and its economic future to earn a spot on the bottom tier. And whether or not Al Gore would have been a successful president, it's improbable that he could have made any mistake as disastrous as Bush's unplanned, go-it-nearly-alone occupation of Iraq.

Gore is clearly savoring his moment of vindication as he tours on behalf of his new film An Inconvenient Truth. At each stop, he entertains questions about whether he might run again in 2008. Gore at first acts coy, feigning annoyance with his questioners' focus on "politics" while he is merely trying to save planet Earth. He then offers a calibrated demurral that does nothing to damp down speculation. At a post-screening party in New York last week, he said he's happy being out of politics. He has no plans to run but he doesn't rule out doing so. The premise of the exchange was that we made a big mistake not electing him the last time, and we'd be lucky if he gave us another chance.

An Open Letter to Al Gore

Dear Al,

Please run for President.  It is clear to almost every normal human that a big mistake was made when the Supreme Court decided that Bush should be President. (Although... I voted for you big guy!)  Clearly, you have a handle on what's going on in the environment and it's citizens.

I saw you on SNL.  Why on earth couldn't you be that funny and personable during the campaign?  No matter.  If you want to toot your own horn and say "I told you so" with your many appearances, we can take it.  Just get us out of this hellhole that is the Bush Administration.  Surely, you read the papers and watch the news.  You know what is going on.  It makes most of us sick to our stomachs to see what our country has turned into.  John Kerry is a nice guy but I don't think that he has the hutzpah that you have.  What a difference a new campaign would be!

I know that you have said that you had no plans to run but reconsider.  Please...

The Missus
