Time - For Shame

Speaking of our favorite twig with dyed blonde hair, Time has Ann Coulter on the cover.

Since when is Time in the business of promoting political pundits, especially crazy ones? Is the media really liberal biased? God no.

Sure Time had Michael Moore on the cover, but he was actually in the news, and had a new project that was drawing lots of attention. That was NEWSworthy. Ann Coulter is just a blowhard out to make a buck.

Time asks "Is she serious or just having fun?"

The answer, nimwits, is that she's making a buck. Lots of them. It's unfortunate that our society is too stupid and has too short an attention span to engage in intelligent discourse with somebody like Juan Cole. He's actually a guy who knows something about geopolitics.

Ann Coulter is just a shrill mouthpiece, notable for her ability to be controversial. That's what she gets paid for. That's why she's on the cover of Time. It's not that she is a gifted political scientist. It's not because she has written thoughtful poly-sci books used in Universities across the country. It's because she has the gift of mouthing off, and coming -this- close to going over the edge.

She fuels the rabid testosterone wannabe living in mom's basement freepers. The only way that anyone could really care about Ann Coulter is if you're dumber than Ann Coulter.

It's a shame that Time put on it's cover someone notable only for their controversy. For a list of Coulter lying her ass off, check here. It amazes me that those on the left are held to account for accuracy, and someone on the right can lie like mad and make the cover of Time.
