What an Idiot

Ann Coulter, a right wing darling and FoxNews favorite offered her recommendation for "improving" the Supreme Court: "We need somebody to put rat poisoning in Justice Stevens' creme brulee . . . That's just a joke, for you in the media." That's fuckin' hilarious, but of course, murder jokes always kill right (no pun intended)? You're shooting fish in a barrel Ann, can you do any better than that?

After very little searching, I found that indeed she can. The reservoir of Ann Coulter's brilliance is plentiful. Consider some of the thoughts of someone the conservative Media Research Center selected as a "Conservative Journalist of the Year"a few years ago, including:

The crack cocaine problem "has pretty much gone away."

Referring to 9/11, she stated that "we should invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity."

"Congress could pass a law tomorrow requiring that all aliens from Arabic countries leave....We should require passports to fly domestically. Passports can be forged, but they can also be checked with the home country in case of any suspicious-looking swarthy males."

"I think [women] should be armed but should not [be allowed to] vote."---Politically Incorrect, 2/26/01 (See US Constitution, 19th Amendment)

"If you don't hate Clinton and the people who labored to keep him in office, you don't love your country."---George, 7/99

"We're now at the point that it's beyond whether or not this guy is a horny hick. I really think it's a question of his mental stability. He really could be a lunatic. I think it is a rational question for Americans to ask whether their president is insane."---Equal Time

"It's enough [to be impeached] for the president to be a pervert."---The Case Against Bill Clinton, Coulter's 1998 book.

Asked how far back would she go to repeal laws, she replied, "Well, before the New Deal...[The Emancipation Proclamation] would be a good start."---Politically Incorrect 5/7/97

"If they have the one innocent person who has ever to be put to death this century out of over 7,000, you probably will get a good movie deal out of it."---MSNBC 7/27/97

"My libertarian friends are probably getting a little upset now but I think that's because they never appreciate the benefits of local fascism."---MSNBC 2/8/97
