Ann Coulter's being bitchy again—this time her target is Michelle Obama
Oh, Ann Coulter. Why do you have to make me break my New Year's resolution so soon? In '09, I wanted to start seeing the best in all people, my pledge was to stop being unkind. But seriously, Ann, you're like positive energy kryptonite! You might be the crankiest, attention-needing bee-atch on the planet! In the past few years, you've referred to John Edwards as a "f-a-g-g-o-t," stated you'd "never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much" in reference to the 9/11 widows, and declared that we should "invade [Muslim] countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity." But that apparently wasn't enough: Now you've turned your petty, vitriolic sights on our first-lady-to-be.
And what sights they are. In her new book, Guilty: Liberal 'Victims' and their Assault on America, Coulter writes: "[Michelle Obama's] obvious imitation of Jackie O's style-the flipped-under hair, the sleeveless A-line dresses, the short strands of fake pearls-would have been laughable if done by anyone other than a media-designated saint."
Jeez.
Coulter then dismisses Ms. Obama's career by suggesting the native Chicagoan's success had everything to do with Mr. Obama's political advancement. She next refers to the almost first lady as a "Mother Theresa," as if this is somehow a slur.
The whole stunt is kind of sad and obvious and desperate-seeming, don't we think? If November's election is any indication, the nation's majority is looking to engage in more hopeful, less negative rhetoric. But Coulter's an increasingly old dog not wanting to learn new tricks. She's built an entire career (mini empire?) out of outrageously vicious statements made at the expense of liberals and their beliefs. Plus, she's got books to sell. And, after attacking Jewish people, gays, abortion rights activists, women, Muslims, almost all democrats of all time; it looks like Coulter is getting a little desperate, scrapping the bottom of the insult barrel and coming up with...Michelle Obama's hair. Sweet Lord, that's just lame.
