I hope some democrat cons his way into her pants and when the whole thing is over with she goes into a shame spiral the likes of which the world has never seen. It’d be sweet if it was Clinton.  
[/QUOTE]  
Except I can just see her trying to bag him if Hillary is nominated in order to screech to the world that the Democratic candidate is married to a RAPIST!

[QUOTE=Bosstone]  
This would be more relevant if said comments weren’t usually preceded by a round of “Who cares what she says, she’s hot!” Once the topic’s brought up, the criticisms are just a response and not a fallacious refutation of her arguments.  
[/QUOTE]

I’m not going to apologize for not taking arguments about her seriously. Are you trying to have an intelligent discussion here? A little mini-debate about the legitimacy of her arguments? “I’d do her.” “Are you kidding, she looks like a monkey!” is a more intelligent conversation than she’s ever had.

Nope, just pointing out **Baldwin** ’s attempted defense of her (people are calling her ugly because they disagree with her) is full of shit.

RE: “rap”

There is a sad trend amongst the tighty-righties to somehow try to imply that they are copascetic hepcats. Kind of like those car ads aimed at people who would like to pretend they were really far out and groovy when they were getting their MBA’s.

[QUOTE=Baldwin]  
I wonder how much our perceptions of somebody’s physical attractiveness is skewed by our disgust with their stated opinions? If I loved the idea of a monotheocratic dictatorship ruled by very rich people, would I find Coulter hot and Arianna Huffington repulsive, rather than the reverse?

Anyway, her looks are immaterial and it’s a cheap tactic to criticize them. As for the crazy things she says all the time – I’ve never decided whether she really means them (indicating that she has a nest of twisting, writhing, poisonous worms in her head) or whether she’s the most dedicated performance artist since Andy Kaufman, and has been putting us on for all these years in her every single public utterance or published word.  
[/QUOTE]

I’d be happy to discuss the policies and opinions of, say, Janet Reno or Alan Greenspan without once discussing their looks. But if someone said “Whatever you say, Janet (or Alan) is hot!” I think it’s only natural to reply “Man, you have strange tastes.”

I suppose if Ann were a nice person I’d feel bad comparing her to a demon from a fantasy series. But she isn’t, so I don’t.

In any event she brings these comments on herself, by wearing little black dresses and striking provacative–and heavily airbrushed–poses on her book covers.

I have met [only one man](http://wc03.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:wzfqxqtdldje) who can sound cool calling people “cats” so far. IRL anyway.

I would hit it. With a chainsaw thrown from 5 stories up, American Psycho style. I don’t want to be any closer to her for any reason. It was bad enough that I had to serve Dr. Laura tea last year.

Of course not. If she did, the Snackpit wouldn’t come all over every one of her posts anymore.

Never fucked anyone of ambiguous physical gender, so no, I’ve never fucked worse than Ms. Coulter. And like other posters have said, she’s brought this on herself by trying to use sex appeal as a marketing device without actually having any sex appeal in the first place.

[QUOTE=tomndebb]  
I dunno. I defended Coulter against charges of “ugly” a few years ago, (I believe my assessment was “acceptably attractive”–she ain’t never been cute), but that was based on some 2001 era photos. She has just gotten leaner and meaner and harder over the years and that has nothing to do with her politics.  
While no raving beauty, (and clearly bat-shit insane), [Michelle Malkin](http://pegpundit.files.wordpress.com/2007/01/michellemalkin.jpg) could still be described as “cute” or “physically attractive” and Aricanna Huffington is not more than “acceptably attractive” from my perspective–and a long way from “hot.”

Political alignments probably shape some people’s views, but I suspect that others rate physical beauty on a separate scale from the one they use to determine value as a human being or quality as a political voice.  
[/QUOTE]

She has the advantage of wealth. She has very good dentistry,good nutrition,expensive well fitting clothes.professional hair treatment ,professional makeup artists. If she were poor she would look much worse. Picture that.

[QUOTE=Astroboy14]  
Ms. Coulter, sweetie, it doesn’t matter if you don’t believe in evolution; evolution believes in _YOU_!  
[/QUOTE]

```
   Does it? I used to think a great bumper sticker would be "If you don't believe in evolution, it doesn't believe in you" Meaning that many of the people I have met, that state that they don't believe in evolution, seem to have missed the news on the whole ape to hominid transition. 

 As to if Coulter is attractive. Physically she has kind of a MILF charm about her. However, since everything she says when she opens her mouth is so repulsive, she comes off as being about as attractive as Chuthulu in Victoria's Secret.

Even if you don’t like her politics, you have to admire Anne’s business acumen. Books, TV, speaking engagements, and a [new line of footwear](http://www.theshoepit.com/index.php?option=com_phpshop&page=shop.browse&category_id=4&Itemid=2)
