NOTES ON COULTER

First, by mentioning Bill Maher, she shows us one of the classic rhetorical maneuvers of the wingnuts - deflection. In this case, Coulter was acting like a little kid who says to his Mom, "but Mikey did it too!"

Second, and much more important, she believes Bush has done a great job with his war on terror, comparable to FDR fighting Hitler. This is so far from reality that one has to question why she is taken at all seriously as a pundit. Let's not forget that she was given time not only on ABC's Good Morning America but also on Hardball with Chris Matthews, both mainstream shows on mainstream networks.
