Shaidle’s role model is Anne Coulter. She’s said so. Coulter has been accused of being more outrageous than anyone can possibly be in order to sell copy, accused of using a fake persona to sell her writing. Wannabe Kathy is just pretending she’s as clever as her Merkin Idol.

I’m hopin’ she’ll see the light all of a sudden and get up on her hindlegs and tell us all how sorry she is fer bein’ such a hateful bigot and how she’s gonna spend the rest of her life tryin’ to reverse the damage she’s done.

Kathy Shaidle talking about the hateful comments of others?

Just what is wrong with having to prove that statements you make are true Al? Shouldn’t the burden of proof be upon the person making the claim? Does personal responsibility play no role here?

Isn’t the “writing persona” bit cute?

“Internet environmentalist”?
