Bart,
Joe Conason and Al Franken are to be commended
for their courage to tell the truth about the American right.
In particular, it’s gratifying to see the
lies of Ann Coulter exposed. But there is a far more sinister side to Coulter’s
personality that must be brought to light.
She calls herself a constitutional attorney,
but she regularly demonstrates her hostility to constitutional
ideas such as rule of law, due process
and the right to life and liberty.
Simply put, Coulter is a homicidal maniac.
I can think of five instances in which she has openly and in no
uncertain terms called for or whimsically
wished for the death of certain people:
*After 9-11, she said America should invade Islamic countries, kill their leaders and convert the rest to Christianity.
*She said Johnny Walker Lindh, AKA "American Taliban," should be summarily executed in order to intimidate liberals.
*She said her only regret about the 9-11 attacks is that the terrorists didn’t fly into the New York Times building.
*She recently acknowledged the military
service of John Kerry and Gray Davis in the Vietnam War,
wishing they had been killed in
action by friendly fire.
*She also has stated that she "enthusiastically"
supports the death penalty, presumably because it does away
with other undesirables (a majority
of which are black).
Coulter obviously embraces the use of violence
and death as political tools. Can you think of some other nefarious
figures in recent history who advocated
the use of violence and death as political tools?
Enlightened minds condemn this kind of thinking,
but for some reason Coulter is increasingly given airtime on the cable
news shows. For some reason, she is increasingly
considered a voice of wisdom and credibility. For some reason,
readers and reviewers praise her work as
literary genius.
Clearly, Ann Coulter’s mind is as sinister
and unbalanced as any of history’s mass-murderers. Sure, she hasn’t killed
anyone herself, but her thinking is the
same. Merely pointing out that she’s a shameless liar and polemicist isn’t
enough.
The truth about Coulter’s bloodthirsty
soul must be shouted from every rooftop, emblazoned across the front page
or
cover of every responsible news publication
and made plain by every conscientious media commentator.
This should be the subject of the next project
from Conason or Franken. Ann Couter’s hatred must be exposed
and rejected before her murderous ideas
become gospel.

Erik, or she might just be Rush with a larger vagina.
I doubt she believes that crap she spews, but she's making millions
frothing for the knuckledraggers.
If the Democrats had any brains, they'd say Coulter and the vulger
Pigboy
are the heart and soul of the GOP and let the Republicans deny
it if they can.
But nooooooooooooooooooo.
That would mean the Democrats taking steps to better themselves,
and they're too afraid.
