Coulter redux

David Carr’s “Deadly Intent: Ann Coulter, Word Warrior” from the New York Times says of her “lethally blonde franchise” that “no other author in American publishing is better at weaponizing words.” Carr concludes:

You can accuse her of cynicism all you want, but the fact that she is one of the leading political writers of our age says something about the rest of us.

That is perhaps the most disturbing aspect of the Coulter phenonemon.
