A feud between conservative columnist Ann Coulter and John McCain's politically vocal daughter, Meghan McCain, has heated up recently after Ms. Coulter joked in her latest column about the young pundit being killed by firearms.

Meghan McCain is getting her own variety talk show.

Conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter used the recent "sequester" cuts to make a fat joke about New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who was not invited to the American Conservative Union's Conservative Political Action Conference.

Conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter described Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein's reaction to tough talk on the Second Amendment as Hillary-esque drama.

Introduced to a national television audience less than two weeks ago, World Wrestling Entertainment’s newest villains Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter embody every unpalatable Tea Party stereotype. Xenophobic at best, downright racist at worst, possessing truly terrible facial hair all the while, the two want nothing more in the world than to deport Mexican immigrants. As in: all of them. Unsurprisingly, actual conservatives and Tea Party supporters are less than thrilled.

Woe is us. But next time, the woe will be for the other guys. Keeping that in mind is the secret of surviving the morning after. Losing an election always hurts; winning hurts the other guys, which is why winning is so sweet. This one hurts conservatives a lot, and it’s particularly painful for those with unrealistic great expectations.
In an apparent response to negative critiques of GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney's debate performance Monday night, conservative pundit Ann Coulter tweeted that she approved of "Romney's decision to be kind and gentle to the retard" ("Ann Coulter directs slur at Obama after debate," Web, Tuesday). Really, Miss Coulter?

In her new book, "Mugged: Racial Demagoguery From the Seventies to Obama," Ann Coulter provides a thorough and timely primer on the misuse of race in politics in the decades after the passage of the landmark civil rights laws of the 1950s and 1960s. Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. has said that America is "a nation of cowards" when it comes to discussions of race. He clearly was not talking about Ann Coulter.

It's a good thing President Obama already has written two autobiographies; otherwise, he would have a hard time finding a kind word on the bookshelves.

After wrapping up their convention Thursday, Republicans are optimistic that their choice of Mitt Romney will make Barack Obama a one-term president. The general consensus in Tampa is Mr. Romney will succeed if he sticks to economic issues and is tough as nails.

You think the actual, real-life president of the United States has problems? Ha! They're a walk in Lafayette Park compared with those of the fictional POTUS in Christopher Buckley's latest satirical sendup, "They Eat Puppies, Don't They?"

To many, Donald Trump still cuts a striking presidential figure across the political landscape. No matter how much his critics squawk, Mr. Trump's fans remain convinced that the billionaire would still make a swell president.

Conservative voters have a message for the Republican establishment: Not so fast. The Washington-knows-best GOP insiders who gave us John McCain, George W. Bush, Bob Dole and George H.W. Bush are now pushing Mitt Romney. Conservative voters are pushing back. Hard.

In November, Republicans will face an incumbent whose failed presidency makes Jimmy Carter look worthy of Mount Rushmore. And they will lose unless they focus like a laser on the two intertwined strands of disastrous DNA that define the Obama era: Obamanomics and Obamacare. It is mystifying, then, that the GOP would risk surrendering either of these issues.
"Even CPAC had to cut back on speakers this year by about 300 pounds," she said, alluding to Mr. Christie, who was not invited to the gathering just outside the Washington Beltway.
Mocking the idea that the $85 billion in automatic cuts to defense and domestic programs that were set into motion on March 1 are going to be devastating, Ms. Coulter said the cuts limited the number of people invited to speak at the three-day event.
