Why Obama is the best president: Coulter says he's the reason she's done writing books.....
writing any more books

:woohoo:

http://rawstory.com/news/2008/Ann_Coulters_Swan_Song_0318.html

In a BookTV interview postponed from February and airing last weekend, author Ann Coulter said that she will probably stop writing books, citing increasing taxes on the rich by the Obama administration.

Reading between the lines, and in light of greatly diminished book sales for Coulter over recent years, one can conclude two things. First, Coulter’s essays will continue unabated even as her involvement in politically-oriented projects (e.g., media campaigns, DVDs, etc.) increases. After all, her last book, Guilty, was published three months late – and still rushed to press for a pre-inaugural release – because of Coulter’s involvement in a series of video projects in 2008.

<<<<<snip>>>>>>

Dangerous? Despite bulk sales, Coulter’s last two books did not hit the best seller list until after contrived controversies boosted her sales.

With dramatically diminished book sales and the distinct possibility of her next book not being a bestseller, Coulter is already providing preemptive rationalizations to preclude speculation into why there will be no “New Ann Coulter” book. According to her own paradigm, this would constitute failure – something most feared by this conservative heroine. Moreover, as Coulter approaches fifty, the Age Factor will roundly replace the Babe Factor in impacting future sales. Coulter is keenly aware of those dynamics

It wouldn't be due to her ever decreasing book sales?

6. Poor little rich girl.
Of course she knows that's absurd.

IIRC the extra taxes will only be a tiny fraction of income over $250,000.

8. She needs to limit her annual income to under $15,000, so she can live tax-free.
That would be paradise for her. I hope she does it.

10. I think she probably fancies herself a heroine a la Atlas Shrugged,
withdrawing from the public arena in protest. Like the government will collapse without her..........

11. She's going to stop writing books because
All the right-wing think tanks/magazines/organizations that bought up pallets of her books (thus inflating her sales numbers in the first place) to give away as incentives for donations, joining the group, up sales for other offers, etc. are going broke. She couldn't have a best seller without outside help, and these right-wing groups are like every other right-wing group - bad at money management.

12. Call the waambulance!
she's parroting the lie Neal Boortz uses liberally :evilgrin:--that taxes punish achievement. If Coulter is an example of "achievement", then punishment is well-deserved.

15. She Writes The Same Book Over and Over Again
How many different ways can you write about how evil and bad Liberals are? Buy one of her books, and you've bought them all.

She's a one-trick pony whose act has grown tiresome.

16. Works for me...
Although the real reason is probably that her publisher told her to fuck off because her sales are down.
