Leaving aside her bullshit claims applied to vast swaths of humanity (ie, liberals love terrorists), I wanted to check and see if she advocates violence against liberals. Surprisingly, my 5 minutes of web searching suggested that she pulls up very close to that line, but stops short. She advocates intimidation through execution of John Walker. She says that “a baseball bat is the best way to talk to liberals,” which probably doesn’t cross the legal barrier of proposing violence (too vague), but certainly implies it to my mind. Am I saying that she ought to be silenced by government intervention? No. I’m saying she ought to be ignored by society.
Would it be okay if I thought that having her fall for the butchest-of-butch lesbians would be ironic?
What if I wrote fic about it?
Not lesbian fan-fic, but close:
I Fucked Ann Coulter In The Ass, Hard
(Okay, why did two of my lj-friends post things about Ann Coulter within a couple of days of each other?)
Mine was inspired by the recent comic posted in.

And here she is again on my friends page! Who is this crazy woman! But yes, I agree, we should ignore her. I disagree with this poster, I think that to protest her is to give her weight. I’d rather just ignore her.
Am I saying that she ought to be silenced by government intervention? No. I’m saying she ought to be ignored by society.
As a liberal, I say that you’d better not be suggesting she be silenced by government intervention.
Wasn’t there an article about her in some trashy news magazine recently?
(bear in mind my standard for “trashy” in news magazines is fairly warped, as our office subscribes to “the economist” and a bunch of other news magazines.
Its funny, ‘the economist’ is the one with the explicit pro-free-market agenda, and yet it frequently appears to be more liberal then the rest of the news magazines we get. I guess this is partly the “social vs. economic conservative” thing though.)
