Dear Ron, I'm not normally in the habit of reading anything from far-right columnist Ann Coulter -- particularly during the Memorial Day weekend. If I had to guess, you're probably not either. But when Coulter's latest screed came across my desktoday, I forced myself to take a look. In her latest column, written after President Obama's commencement address at Notre Dame, Ann Coulter called Barbara Boxer an "abortion-happy nutcake." That's outrageous -- even for Ann Coulter. We knew the right-wing attacks would be coming -- and Ann Coulter's over-the-top attack shows how low they will go. So we need your help now to prepare for theattacks to come. Show Ann Coulter that her outrageous attacks against Barbara Boxer won't stand: Contribute to Barbara's campaign today! I've seen a lot in politics, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. But Ann Coulter's mean-spirited attack is really beyond the pale. In the wake of President Obama's heartfelt speech, where he urged respect for all perspectives on abortion, Ann Coulter chose to respond by spewing more of her vitriol at President Obama -- and Barbara Boxer. Let me be clear: Barbara Boxer is proud of her efforts to protect women's health and defend a woman's right to choose. She is the Senate's leading voice when it comes to standing up to the right-wing forces that want toeliminate choice and send doctors to jail. If Ann Coulter bothered to look at the record, she would know that Barbara believes that we need to keep abortion safe, legal, and rare. Barbara has fought to give women the health care and information they need to promote family planningand reduce unintended pregnancies. That makes Barbara Boxer athoughtful leader to protect women's health and the right ofwomen to choose.

Believe me, Ann Coulter is the last person I want to be thinking about during Memorial Day weekend. But I had to let you know about her personal attack on Barbara. I won't let her outrageous statement go unnoticed, and I hope you won't either. Please contribute today -- and help us prepare for the outrageous attacks to come!
