Pot calling the kettle black

Ann Coulter, as everyone knows is one of my favorite people. Literally, I think if I met her on the street, I couldn't control the violent urgings that would force me to do her bodily harm.
A classic Ann Coulterism follows (from Media Matters, emphasis mine):
On the February 7 edition of FOX News' Hannity & Colmes, Coulter criticized ads that aired during the 2005 Super Bowl, saying, "this is juvenile, 4-year-old humor," and added: "And last year's Super Bowl show, ooh, simulated interracial sex." During the 2004 performance, Timberlake ripped a piece of Jackson's clothing, briefly exposing one of her breasts in what Timberlake later called a "wardrobe malfunction."
On the February 7 edition of MSNBC's Scarborough Country, appearing alongside host and former Representative Joe Scarborough (R-FL) and Republican strategist Karen Hanretty to discuss University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill's
comparison of some victims of the World Trade Center terrorist attacks to Nazis, Coulter commented: "These guys [college professors] want to go around acting like big radicals, getting laid by coeds with hairy armpits who probably don't like men, by going to conferences and saying, 'Oh, yes, I'm the one who said that.'"
Later in the same segment, Coulter responded to a question from Scarborough about the military's recent
demotion of a female U.S. soldier in Iraq for indecent exposure during a mud wrestling party: "I would like a United States military capable of winning wars, which will not involve sending girls to do fighting." Coulter concluded: "And, yes, I think it's appalling that these women are mud wrestling, but I think it's appalling that they are in the military."

First of all Ann, your whole career is based on the premise of "Oh yes, I'm the one who said that". Do you think that you are a sought after pundit for the insight of your opinion? You are one of the many, and perhaps the most well known, pundits out there that are famoust and sought after for one reason...the extremism of your opinion and your willingness to say it out loud. And that is it.
Secondly, the ravishing successes that you claim are Afghanistan and Iraq were acheived by a military that is approximately 10% women. Now, are these 'successes' in spite of the women or can the women get a little credit for this?
Ann Coulter is a disgrace to womenhood all over the world. And no, its not because she supports the President, and no its not because she is pro-life and no its not because she espouses nothing but hatred for feminism--its because at every opportunity, she takes the time out to criticize women's intelligence, abilities and aptitudes. She made a pre-election career out of demeaning women's votes because a majority of women didn't support the President.
She is a disgrace and I'd tell her to grow a penis and become a man, but that would be an insult to their gender as well.
