Enough to make your head explode

In a nutshell, I am utterly disgusted that Ann Coulter has a career. Obviously, she has a constitutional right to express herself. That is, she should be able to say whatever she wants, no matter how stupid and hurtful. However, what I cannot get over is the idea that there are scads of people who want so badly to listen to her stupid, hurtful self-expression that they are willing to pay her money (i.e. buy her books) to increase their access to her stupidity.


Since we live in some post-modern permutation of a capitalist democratic republic, the tyranny of the idiot majority prevails.

Today, I am too upset and too painfully aware of my own stunted eloquence to even attempt to add anything to this ongoing discussion.  Thankfully, the comments on the above blog post say enough for me and everybody.
