I can't see what all the bru-ha-ha is about?
Of course Anne Coulter is a tongue-in-cheek comedienne. She's written such zany and side-splitting books as; Slander: Liberal Lies about the American Right, The Case Against Bill Clinton and Treason: Liberal Treachery from the Cold War to the War on Terrorism.
She's appeared on well-known comedy programs like; Hannity and Colmes, The O'Reilly Factor, American Morning, Crossfire and The Today Show.
She appeared in the bucket of laughs movie, FarenHYPE 9/11.
She's a true patriot and LOVES our troops AND our veterans:
"In 1996, the fledgling television network MSNBC hired Coulter as a legal correspondent and political pundit, launching her media career. Though she was allowed to make many partisan and controversial comments as a panelist, she was fired in 1997 after an exchange with Bobby Muller, president of the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation, in which she said, "No wonder you guys lost" (MSNBC's NewsChat, October 11, 1997)."
_________
She's loved by people who share her philosophies for her humor and glib responses:
" Her style is not universally admired among those who share her political philosophy. Arnold Beichman reviewed Treason in the conservative Washington Times, and wrote that he'd "tried to read Miss Coulter's book and failed. Life is too short to read pages and pages of rant." [7] Many find her presentations, both published and spoken, to be both highly offensive and inflammatory. Critics have labeled her comments and opinions as blatantly racist."
________
She's a humorous advocate for equal rights for all Americans:
"At a February 23, 2006 appearance at Indiana University, Bloomington, in a speech entitled "Liberals Are Wrong About Everything", she told the extremely divided audience, "Liberals hate both God and America," and referred to a man with an effeminate voice who was asking questions as a "gay boy."
_________
She's not afraid to embrace the values of America's core:
"Coulter has frequently criticized the government's handling of radical separatists. She described members of the Branch Davidians at the Waco compound as "harmless American citizens" [19] after the bulk of the group was immolated in the fire started during the FBI raid (the cause of the fire is in dispute). Likewise, she berates what she calls the "unprovoked government assault" and "murder" at Ruby Ridge"
__________
No one is safe from her wacky sense of humor, and many people applaud her political incorrectness:
"When asked by the reporter about what Muslims would then do for travel, she replied: "They could use flying carpets." [28] On February 10, 2006, Coulter spoke at the Conservative Political Action Conference, where she referred to Arabs as "ragheads". "I think our motto should be post-9-11, raghead talks tough, raghead faces consequences." The audience then applauded her."
___________
She's especially concerned about equal rights for women:
"On a few occasions Coulter has suggested that the constitutional amendment giving women the right to vote should be repealed. In a 14 February 2000 National Review Online article she wrote, "If this ticket doesn't close the gender gap, it's time to repeal the 19th Amendment." On 26 February 2001, she said, "[women should] all have to give up their vote" (Politically Incorrect). She also argues that banning women from voting would ensure Republican presidents would be elected - as historical voting patterns had shown men had voted in majorities for Republican candidates."
And she's used her straightforward style of comedy to uplift women:
"Coulter has stated that women are "not as bright" as men (Hannity and Colmes - 09/23/04), "have no capacity to understand how money is earned" (Politically Incorrect - 02/26/01), and "shouldn't be in the military" (Hannity and Colmes - 05/05/04)."

She'll forever be remembered as the funniest woman on earth with quotes like:
"Liberals hate America, they hate flag-wavers, they hate abortion opponents, they hate all religions except Islam, post 9/11. Even Islamic terrorists don't hate America like liberals do. They don't have the energy. If they had that much energy, they'd have indoor plumbing by now."—(from Slander, pp. 5-6; published June 2002)
"The ethic of conservation is the explicit abnegation of man's dominion over the Earth. The lower species are here for our use. God said so: Go forth, be fruitful, multiply, and rape the planet—it's yours. That's our job: drilling, mining and stripping. Sweaters are the anti-Biblical view. Big gas-guzzling cars with phones and CD players and wet bars—that's the Biblical view."
"You don't want the Republicans in power, does that mean you want a dictatorship, gay boy?" - February 24, 2006 [44]

Again, what's all the bru-ha-ha about? Anne Coulter is obviously a great comedienne - I nearly pissed myself laughing!
She's currently appearing at the following comedy clubs: . . . ummmm, ahhhhh, hmmmmmm, well, I guess she's NOT appearing at any comedy clubs BECAUSE SHE'S NOT FRIGGIN FUNNY!
