Default Re: Not So......Ann Tells It How It Is

Where is the evidence that they're enjoying their loved one's deaths? Or the "benefits" or their deaths? Where in their statement is there something hateful about George Bush?

9/11 was a big deal. The families of victims were sought out by the media. Not just the liberal media. One of the things that attracted me about the movie United 93 was the fact that quite a few of the victims' familieis recommended the movie.

So, with access to the media, and motivated by the deaths of their loved ones, these women (and other people) have atttempted to use their access to effect policy. I can't see that there's anything wrong with that.

Do we know for a fact, BTW, that these women were not millionaires before 9/11? (Kristin Breitweiser, perhaps the most outspoken of the group, is an attorney.) Has their lifestyle changed appreciably since their 9/11 monetary settlement? Does she know these women personally? Does she know if, for example, they cry every night over their losses?

Ann Coulter certainly doesn't see herself as a satirist. It's easy for the rest of us to so see her, since what she says bears only minimal relationship to truth.
