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.
Oh, you've got them by the ton, honey...
...it's just that they're all really, really stupid.
Aside from Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Charlie Rangel, Julian Malvoux, Donna Brazile, Julian Bond, Kwasi Mfume, Harry Belafonte and Louis Farakhan, they got nobody!
(and that's just the first tier of the black loudmouths)
The left jokes about killing conservatives, so who cares if she doesit? She is only playing by liberal rules. If they don't like the game they can get off the playground.
I don't think this was a great comment by Ann. First of all it's down to leftwinger levels (think Julianne Malveaux), and secondly, it's not funny.
Ann...i love you but this has to be the all timer championship bonehead attempt at humor that I have heard froma conservative in a long, long time.
The only reason why I think Ann Coulter was mistaken to make a joke like this is that liberals talk about killing conservative politicians on a regular basis, and it's just possible it might encourage some nut job to do it.
It makes it harder to complain about this nasty liberal habit if a conservative does it too, even as a joke. From now on, liberals will defend their malice by saying, "Well, if Anne Coulter can do it, why can't I?"
No kidding. Ann & Pat Robertson should tour together.
Whatever she says, let`s remember libs had no problem with Craig Kilborne putting a target on GW`s head with an ad of "snipers wanted" on the bottom.
Creme brulee is poison all by itself.
My. Even though Coulter said it was a joke it isn't a joke. See?
Really. The thought of liberals being "upset" at a joke is itself a joke. They're a joke; their feigned moral outrage is beyond parody.
Same here can't get in.
There's nothing Ann could say that would make me not love her.
She has PERMANENTLY enshrined herself as a national treasure.
What's that book Rush keeps talking about where the libs were exploring ways to kill the POTUS before the election?
Of course that was an enlightened literary exploration of one's inner feelings, but let a Conservative say anything like this, why it's OFF with their head!
Stupid liberal hit piece. Ann Coulter eats whining dishonest leftist *ssholes like this for breakfast.
It doesn't work that way. Liberals can say anything about conservatives and Christians. Only Republicans are held to a politically correct standard when they insult the Left.
List of examples too long to list here. You know them all anyway.
I agree I do not like comments of that kind in any forum...I tuned her out quit awhile ago.

with a tad more "ominous" spin
Not smart, Ann.
