Ann Coulter broke her jaw and it is being reported that she’s had to have it wired shut. Read about it below and see photos and a video.

The word is out that Ann Coulter broker her jaw sometime in the last month and now Page 6 is reporting that she’s had to have it wired shut. Coulter’s enemies think that’s hilarious. While I have been roaming around the internet trying to find out HOW she broke her jaw, I’ve been treated to a potpourri of snide and joyously clever comments about Ann Coulter’s jaw and how breaking her jaw is the only way to shut her up.

We all know that Coulter jumps the shark occasionally, but that’s what she does. Its why she’s famous and how she’s made her money. There’s no question that she makes statements to get a reaction and goes over the top more frequently than not. Still, she makes it pretty much impossible to ignore her and she does illicit debate …. regardless of whether you love or hate her. Very few people are lukewarm when it comes to Coulter.

My biggest problem with her was her ranting about refusing to vote for John McCain and how she’d rather vote for Hillary Clinton. Unfortunately, a lot of people felt that way. Some just stayed home from voting and others wasted their votes with ‘protest’ votes. That’s how we ended up with a democratic Congress in 2006, which lead to the financial mess we are in today, which lead to McCain’s defeat in the general election, which lead to our near-future President who sashays out in front of the cameras for a ‘news conference’ daily while standing behind a sign declaring him to be from the ‘Office of the President Elect’. That’s what happens with ‘protest votes’ and Ann Coulter contributed to that in my opinion.

Still, you have to give her kudos for having guts and verve. She’ll go toe to toe with whoever and gives as good as she gets. Many of her controversial statements are not as controversial when they are put into the context of whatever point she is making. But then, using a sound byte out of context is a much better way of minimizing her influence.

Okay, back on topic. When and how did Coulter break her jaw?? I can’t seem to find any information on that. I do know that she was dating a liberal democrat recently – oddly. Of course, that’s not relevant … don’t know why it crossed my mind. The word is that she fell. Fell where? How? When? It just seems odd to break one’s jaw in a fall. Most people would break an arm or shoulder trying to catch themselves as they fell. You’d have land on your face without breaking your fall to break your jaw. Odd.

If all this proves to be true then the left is fairly ecstatic that the polemic Coulter is silenced, at least temporarily. The thing they seem to not be taking into account is the fact that she makes her living writing. Her jaw won’t have an affect on her writing, unless it just makes her angrier and more irritated. If that is the case, then I think a lot of people might do well to be considering taking shelter.
