From the Right Wing

No More Mister Nice Blog points out an Independent article which shares Ann Coulter’s latest:

Meet Ann Coulter. In her opinion, “liberals are racists”, the French are “a bunch of faggots”, only property owners should be allowed to vote, and anyone who disagrees with her is a “fatuous idiot” or “evil”.
. . .
Her next book, due out in October, is called How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must). And even this relatively emollient title is a concession. “They pushed this title on me,” Coulter says when we meet at Orsay, a brasserie on the Upper East Side of New York. “All my titles were much more vicious. What I didn’t like about How to Talk to a Liberal is that I really think the best way to talk to one is to hit them in the head with a baseball bat. So I threw in the parenthetical If You Must.”
. . .
“Liberals don’t want people to have sovereignty over their own mind and body,” says Ann. “They take my money, they tell me how many gallons of water I can have in my tank, they define conservative speech as hate speech. They’re total fascists, but they’re going out and imposing their left-wing fascism on the rest of the country. The beauty of America is that you can have gay-rights parades in New York and you can perform abortions on your dining-room table, but who’s flying to Mississippi and suing them to take down their Ten Commandments in a public park?”
Yes, it’s those pesky liberals again. “They’re not only fascist where they live, they’re expanding their fascism to the rest of America.” Wouldn’t this case be a constitutional issue (to do with the separation of church and state)? “That’s what liberals say about everything, including sucking the brains out of little babies.”
One thing can be said for Coulter: she does not worry about causing offence. When we talk about the “war on terror”, she sounds almost nostalgic for the Cold War. “When we were fighting communism, OK, they had mass murderers and gulags, but they were white men and they were sane. Now we’re up against absolutely insane savages.” The insouciance with which she drops race into the mix is so astonishing that it’s disarming.

This concludes the column rather nicely:

Is Ann Coulter a nutcase? If she is, she’s one listened to and approved of by a frightening number of Americans. Surely, I say, hoping she will concede that she sometimes provokes to amuse, she doesn’t believe everything she comes out with. “This is the shocking thing for your readers,” she replies. “I believe everything I say.”

Yep. I’m sure she’ll get plenty of publicity when this book comes out. And sadly, there will be viewers who take her seriously.
