Ann Coulter was down in Northfield yesterday, trading insults with the students at St. Olaf College. And she’s on the cover of this week’s Time. Why the media still pays attention to this woman is beyond me. She’s not particularly clever or insightful. She’s about as unfunny as some of those Borscht-Belt comedians from back in the day. But I guess she does sort of embody the Republican feminine mystique, if there is such a thing. She’s white. She’s blonde. She’s thin almost to the point of being anorexic. She’s Protestant. And she wears really short skirts. And she pretty much finds people who aren’t white and Protestant kinda icky. In some conservative circles, this constitutes being a hottie. Personally, she strikes me as someone who is desperately trying to hide how boring and unoriginal she
really is.
It’s like summer here in the Twin Cities! I wore shorts the other day! The brilliant whiteness of my legs almost blinded me, but damnit, I wore shorts! And other people are wearing shorts! Beautiful people! Life is beautiful! I’m so giddy I’m going to end this sentence with two exclamation points!!
