Syndicated Columnist Coulter Hails Palin as 'Conservative of the Year'

By: E&P Staff Right-wing Web site Humanevents.com has awarded Palin its "Conservative of the Year" Award for 2008, for what syndicated columnist Ann Coulter in a new column calls the former Miss Alaska's "genius at annoying all the right people. The last woman to get liberals this hot under the collar would have been ? let's see now ? oh, yeah: Me!"

Coulter continues, ?When McCain chose our beauteous Sarah as his running mate, the maverick was finally acting like a real maverick -- as opposed to the media?s definition of a ?maverick? which is: ?agreeing with the editorial positions of the New York Times.?

?Pre-Palin it had been one race -- boring old ?You kids get off my lawn!? John McCain versus the exciting, new politician Barack Obama, who threw caution to the wind and bravely ran as the Pro-Hope candidate. And then our heroic Sarah bounded out of the Alaska tundra and it became a completely different race. This left the press completely discombobulated and upset. They didn't know whether to attack Sarah for not having an abortion or go after her husband for not being a sissy.?
