And then, there's another despoiler of culture, the political pornographer, Ann Coulter.
I love Chris Matthews. But for him to compare her to the young George Will, as he does in the linked piece, is wildly inaccurate. Will always knew his stuff. Coulter is a verbal flame thrower.
In fact, I feel that we have miscategorized Coulter. She's no pundit. She's a stand-up comic. And not funny.

Who buys her books?
I think I saw that Pyromaniac Phil Johnson had her on his reading list. Why?
She says what conservatives (many of them) want to hear. This conservative doesn't want to hear her. Ed Morrisey wrote that he thinks she will become a liberal when being a conservative doesn't pay enough.
Thanks, Julana and Ron, for your comments.
Basically, I think that Coulter feeds red meat to some red voters.
Many conservative leaders and thinkers seem to increasingly be distancing themselves from her. The mainstream media likes to have her on their shows because she's so provocative. But I think that her schtick will wear thin.
