Coulter Shock: A History

This isn't the first time that Coulter has been used as a dodge by the Media to avoid criticizing Democrats; and used by the "kiss up" Right to show how "mainstream" they really are. There were the controversial comments by New York State Comptroller Alan Hevesi whose joke about Sen. Schumer "putting a bullet between the president's eyes" while at a school commencement ceremony was only worth about 36 hours of the news cycle. The ethically challenged Hevesi's mea culpa was immediately accepted as ending the controversy. Then Ann Coulter made her comment about the Jersey Girls enjoying their widowhood and that became one of the major tsk-tsk moment of the year.
