Some Advice for Ann Coulter

If I were Ann Coulter, I would make sure my driver's license is up to date. If she has personal assistants to take care of "that sort of thing," she should make sure they're doing their job. If she has a couple of glasses of wine before she drives home after a long day of comic nastiness, she should give that up. Obey the law at every point. Spend more time with her personal trainer.

That's the ticket.

Why? Based on her exchange with Elizabeth Edwards, it strikes me that Coulter is starting to enter Paris Hilton territory. Like Hilton, Ann Coulter has made a brand name out of a vice--in Coulter's case her comic political nastiness. However, it looks like public disgust with Coulter is reaching the kind of danger point that could find an outlet in arrest and prosecution.

I'm not a fan of Coulter's. Ann Coulter's professional life is one long and entertaining tease of stepping up to the racist, misogynist, vindictive, and brutality lines, and then putting her foot just far enough to "shock," "outrage," and entertain her audience, just not far enough to get her bounced off the op-ed pages and best seller lists. It's a sad and disgusting way to live.

But I also don't believe that Coulter should pay a price in jail time for her particular path to wealth and fame.

So, I'd advice her to be careful.

Ann Coulter thinks about dead people when she's making love.

She eats wild insects with her bare hands.

I like the wild insect idea.

Nevertheless, given Coulter's public commitment to Christianity, I assume she's a virgin. Maybe she thinks about dead people while she's praying.

Her new book is titled "Godless." Is this an autobiography?

Her words don't belong in a book, they belong in a bathroom stall somewhere.

She's a professional liar. She is a vampire. And despite her proclaimed Christianity, very much a slut. If not a sexual slut, certainly a media whore.

Come on, Tod. Stop holding back.
