Confronting Coulter

The only tiny silver lining of my friend Chris Matthews’ decision to give hate-monger Ann Coulter a platform is that Elizabeth Edwards called in to confront her – in particular the callous way in which Coulter once spoke of Edwards’ dead son. Watch Coulter wither and flinch. It’s rare to see a simple confrontation on cable television of good versus evil. And it’s encouraging to see evil lose.
