My Ann Coulter post on truthdig.com

Ann Coulter is the wardrobe malfunction of Republican politics. Bring her on! You go, girl!

My god, what are you going to do when your once-thought-brilliant Neocon ideas are being flushed down the commode? Attack the 9/11 widows!

Of course.

It’s like Janet Jackson upping the ante (was she doing it on purpose?) for attention at the Superbowl. Can you top this?! (Followed in the same breath by some obscene expletive.) Forget the football game.

And Matt Lauer feeding Ann her lines on the Today Show? Can’t you just see them rehearsing that little give’n’take shake’n’bake?

Or it’s like carnival time in Duluth, Minnesota (my old home town) ... bring on the tatoo man and the two-headed calf ... come see the free show courtesy of the Neocon wing (wing nuts) of the Republican Party.

Does anyone still question how we got into this mess?

You know, a carnival may come to town ... but you don’t let it run the town, for chrissakes! It gives us some diversion for a week or so and them moves on ... doesn’t it?

“Meeting the demands of the Roman citizenry for mass public entertainment on a lavish scale, Julius Caesar expanded the Circus around 50 BC.”
