Quote:
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Conservative author Ann Coulter sparked a storm on Wednesday after describing a group of September 11 widows who backed the Democratic Party as millionaire "witches" reveling in their status as celebrities.

"I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much," Coulter writes in her book "Godless: The Church of Liberalism," published on Tuesday, referring to four women who headed a campaign that resulted in the creation of the September 11 Commission that investigated the hijacked plane attacks.

Yeah, sounds harsh. But then again, I have similar feelings about Cindy Sheehan so I can't really complain.

I don't think Ann Coulter has really any right to say that about any of these women. I mean how well does she really know them? As far as it may appear like they are in fact the way she states, you really have no idea how they truly feel, or how they act when they are not in public. Maybe they haven't found a way to deal with the trauma. Maybe they really are bitches as she says. Still, I don't think she of all people should be the one judging them like this.

Preeeeeeeeety Harsh. M'Self I'd have a hard time touching that money in the first place. Regardless of truth or not though, she is out of line for saying that.

She has every right to say it, just as these women have every right to go out and say their part, whether it be about 9/11 or about their left-wing agenda.
That being said, I agree with everyone. Her premise was decent, but what she said? Yeah, it's dispicable and incredibly harsh. I can't defend her at all.
