NEW YORK Universal Press Syndicate columnist Ann Coulter "joked" during a Thursday speech that liberal Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens should be poisoned. "We need somebody to put rat poisoning in Justice Stevens' creme brulee," Coulter said at Philander Smith College in Little Rock, Ark. "That's just a joke, for you in the media."
She made other "off-color" jokes about liberal Supreme Court justices that made the audience "squeal," according to an article today in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. No pies were thrown.
Coulter did provoke some booing, though, especially after she stopped two black men during questions, telling them, "I'm not gonna be lectured to," according to the newspaper account. She also was booed when she said that the crack cocaine epidemic "has pretty much gone away."
Blacks "are the most loyal group for Democrats and you ought to be getting a little more out of them by giving them competition through the Republicans," Coulter said.
She hailed the nomination of Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court, suggesting that now there might be a fair vote on abortion.
Afterward, black students stood around "lashing" back at Coulter's "rhetoric," the newspaper said. One sophomore girl said: "We need someone on the Democratic side who is just as outspoken as she is."
The college president, Walter Kimbrough, had told the audience, that inviting Coulter to speak at the black school made sense because like hip hoppers she is "raw, outspoken, uncensored." He also called her the "conservative answer to rapper Lil' Kim -- [both] attractive and sexy, long-haired blondes. ..."
Coulter said it was "the best introduction" she'd ever had.
Lil' Kim is currently in the middle of a 366-day jail sentence for perjury and conspiracy.
Sliding toward the abyss of , "Gee I am sooo important now, I can say anything."
Libs weren't bothered when Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin poisoned their boss with rat poison, then tied him up in chains for a month. They thought that was hilarious.
Talk about a backhanded complement. I don't think Ann would appreciate the comparison.
I thought she was a hasbeen that showed up on American Idol this week?
Man, ya beat me to it! I guess Ann's remarks fall under the category of "it's only shameful when a conservative says it".
Coulter said at Philanderer Smith College in Little Rock, Ark.
It's Arkansas, so they musta got it wrong.
Or when Helen Thomas said she would kill herself if Dick Cheney were President (please say it's true Helen).
So, it was a movie? Movie humor. Movie humor okay, but live humor is on?

Coulter has long ago gone over the edge. Joking about something like this in public is shows she's loosing it big time ala Al Gore.
I'm not able to visit Ann Coulter's website. Denial of service attack?
The kids are comparing her to a rapper. She reached them. They listened. That is what is important.
Yep.
Beginning of the end...
I would have to see the tape before I judge. Bad things attributed to conservatives are usually twisted out of context.
Squealing in Arkansas? Does Ann travel with two banjo players??
Agreed.
