Pundit Boxscore for Friday 22 August 2003

WHERE'S THE OUTRAGE? I still don't understand why Ann Coulter's latest outrage -- actually wishing that Al Gore and Gray Davis had been killed in Vietnam -- has not generated a national reaction. Am I not looking at the correct websites, or are we just jaded, suffering from Coulter Shock?

ON SCHEER: Sometimes you jump the shark; sometimes the shark jumps you. Stefan Sharkansky jumped on Robert Scheer the other day, accusing him of hypocrisy on property taxes in a recent column (link from Henry Hanks and Glenn Reynolds). Mr. Scheer gets a better reception from Mickey Kaus: "Give LAT columnist Robert Scheer points--he's willing to dis his friend Arianna Huffington."
