Anne Coulter is starting to get some massive flack for the first time in her career from all sides, both conservative and liberal. Hillary Clinton, of course added her two cents on the issue, which makes sense as she is a Senator for New York City. The reason why isn't over her racist comments, her frequent mis-use of treason, her inability to fact check anything that comes spilling over her mouth. Despite her many many years of spewing absolute crap, what gets her in trouble is daring to attack the poor and now very wealthy and politically connected 9/11 widows. The 9/11 widows response is here.
"I have never seen people enjoying their husband's death so much," she said on the 6/6 Today show. This is what gets people upset? A statement that why not that nice isn't entirely that inaccurate. The widows went from being lower middle class political nobodies to politically powerful (they are their own lobby), well connected, and well financed somebodies. They may not have enjoyed the loss of their husbands, but I find it hard to believe they haven't enjoyed the change in their lifestyles. They wouldn't bother me so much except that they get the attention while completely ignoring those that where also effected by 9/11 including those that had to help with clearing the debris, finding the bodies, identifying the bodies, the list is long and completely ignored.
Mostly I am just amazed this is the thing that could blow up in Anne Coulter's face. After all these years, this is the issue that could be the turning point. WTF?
