ANNIE GOES TO COLLEGE

Coulter Jokes About Poisoning Justice

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Conservative commentator Ann Coulter, speaking at a traditionally black college, joked that Justice John Paul Stevens should be poisoned.
Coulter had told the Philander Smith College audience Thursday that more conservative justices were needed on the Supreme Court to change the current law on abortion. Stevens is one of the court's most liberal members.
"We need somebody to put rat poisoning in Justice Stevens' creme brulee," Coulter said. "That's just a joke, for you in the media."
Coulter has made a career of writing and lecturing on her strongly conservative views.
At one point during her address, which was part of a lecture series, some audience members booed when she cut off two questioners. "I'm not going to be lectured to," Coulter told one man in a raised voice.
She drew more boos when she said the crack cocaine problem "has pretty much gone away."
*************************************************************************
OK, the booing is par for the course, and her raising her voice, man to man, is also, but here's what I don't get:

1. Mannie's grammar skills, on which she's prided herself, seem to have disappeared ("I'm not going to be lectured to!") Also, what gave her reason to think that a question is a lecture? Is it because the questioners said, "Do you think putting rat SHIT in Clarence Thomas' creme brulee is a good idea, too?"
2. Since when did Talibann care about offending the media.
3. How does she know the crack cocaine problem has gone away? Actually, I do get this one: it hasn't. Exhibit A: Ann Coulter saying "The crack cocaine problem has gone away."
4. A traditionally black college actually invited her to speak?

I am most shocked that a traditionally black college invited her to speak. I guess they were hard up for a guest speaker and everyone else canceled???
