What is not great, is the fact that some people, both sides of the political lines included, step over the line. Mind you, that line has been moved back so far, that it would be easier to punt a field goal from the opposing team's 99 yard line, than to see decency and common respect.
To me, this post by AnnCoulter surpassed that line, and sunk into the lagoon of social conscious. She has not only insulted the President of the United States, but hundreds of thousands of Americans and those that love them, and hundreds of millions of people world wide.
This is a response to Ann's disgraceful tweet, and it's well worth the read: http://specialolympicsblog.wordpress.com/2012/10/23/an-open-letter-to-ann-coulter/
