Coulter wants Senator Chafee shot

Picphoto083106coulter Ann Coulter went over the top yet again -- which is nothing new.  In her column this week she lashed out at moderate Republican Lincoln Chafee.  The title reads, "They Shot the Wrong Lincoln."

The web site Media Matters has a list of some other times in which Coulter alluded to wanting to kill those she disagrees with:

  • Commenting on radio host Melanie Morgan's assertion that if New York Times executive editor BillKeller were convicted of treason she "would have no problem with him beingsent to the gas chamber," Coulter said, "I prefer a firing squad,but I'm open to a debate on the method of execution." She later suggestedthat Times staff members shouldbe "executed."
  • Coulter said ofthe media: "Wouldthat it were so! ... That the American military were targetingjournalists."
  • Coulter suggestedthat Rep. John P. Murtha (D-PA) is "the reason soldiers inventedfragging," -- military slang meaning the intentional killing of a member ofone's own unit.
  • Coulter arguedthat the national debate during the Monica Lewinsky controversy should not havefocused on whether former President Bill Clinton "did it," but rather"whether to impeach or assassinate" him.
  • Coulter saidof Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens: "We need somebody to put ratpoison in Justice Stevens's créme brulée.''

No wonder the USA Today and the Gazette of Cedar Rapids have dropped her weekly columns.  We are waiting for more newspapers to follow.

Please dont contribute to making Coulter a relevant figure. I request a permanent ban on Coulter related posts because there is no use in responding to such hatred.

You know, I think you're right. For now on, I will only post about Coulter if it is something really important. During this campaign season, there is too much at stake to waste energy on her.

Good comment!
