Right-wing spew-shrew Ann Coulter calls Islam "a car-burning cult"

"In a column commenting on the recent violence linked to cartoons in European newspapers that satirized the Muslim Prophet Muhammad, right-wing pundit Ann Coulter suggested that Islam is 'a car-burning cult,' and wrote that Muslims have 'a predilection for violence.'"

For a larf or two, also try this on Coulter (Culter?), and this, and The Nation's "Devil in a Blue Dress" regarding the "lunatic ravings of Ann Coulter." The Ann Coulter parody blog is here.

Here's another bit on Coulter's sputem: "After writing that cops and pretty girls were her allies at the [Democratic National] convention, she had this to say about the women in attendance: 'My pretty-girl allies stick out like a sore thumb amongst the corn-fed, no make-up, natural fiber, no-bra needing, sandal-wearing, hirsute, somewhat fragrant hippie-chick pie wagons they call "women" at the Democratic National Convention.'

"Here's how Coulter opened the column: 'Here at the Spawn of Satan convention in Boston, conservatives are deploying a series of covert signals to identify one another, much like gay men do. My allies are the ones wearing crosses or American flags. The people sporting shirts emblazoned with the "F-word" are my opponents.'"

Here's a list of some of her most offensive statements, including:

"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

"I have to say I'm all for public flogging. One type of criminal that a public humiliation might work particularly well with are the juvenile delinquents, a lot of whom consider it a badge of honor to be sent to juvenile detention. And it might not be such a cool thing in the 'hood to be flogged publicly."---MSNBC 3/22/97

"I think we had enough laws about the turn-of-the-century. We don't need any more." 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
