Ms. Coulter is using “rule” rather loosely there. Out of curiosity, I looked it up. The last time a British monarch exerted any real authority was back in 1708.

Today, the monarch limits himself to waving from balconies and giving the tabloids something spicy to write about.

I’m not knocking it. That’s evidently the way the Brits want it. For now, anyway.

Not quite. Queen Elizabeth dissolved Australia’s Parliament in the 1970s.

I doubt she was intending to give a hard fact here considering she followed it sarcastically with, “The closest we have to that in America is the NAACP.”

I know many FReepers hate Ann Coulter, but I can appreciate her biting sarcasm which few can match.
