Coulter's Good One-Liner

Amidst the understandable brouhaha about Ann Coulter's criticism of certain 9/11 widows, what gets lost is that her GOOD one-liners are often SO good that nobody else can compare. In an interview yesterday with Robert Stacy McCain of the Washington Times (also mentioned in his blog "Donkey Cons," named after the book by the same name he co-wrote with Lynn Vincent), Coulter came up with this humdinger:

Q (from McCain): In a previous book, you said, "Liberals simply can't grasp the problem Lexis-Nexis poses to their incessant lying." Why have liberals become so hostile to facts?

A (from Coulter): Actually, to be fair, the facts were hostile to liberals first.

Gotta love it.

Which proves that she doesn't actually have to be outrageous to make a very sharp point, with humor.
