I can think of no better soldier to to to Iraq than Ms Coulter. It's easier than putting a bounty on her head.
Now see? THAT'S the kind of joke she would make.

HERE SHE COMES AGAIN...
When it comes to Ann Coulter, there are a couple ways to interpret her outbursts.
I think the one that's most accurate is this: imagine her meetings with her editor:
"OK Ann, what are you gonna do to sell this book?"
"Well I already did 9/11 widows. So hmm, how 'bout Jews? And here's the brilliant part: I'll say something that's patently offensive, but it'll also be something nearly every right-wing Christian actually believes."
"That's perfect Ann...just perfect. You'll earn your advance plus some."
Then there's the idea that she thinks she's funny. This one is certainly possible. She often seems to indicate that she's making jokes. I mean, there are people who think jokes about the disabled are guffaw-worthy too. And there are also folks who think saying the word "fag" is funny too. And the folks who think these things are funny, well they probably have all her books on their shelves. The problem is that she's not doing comedy. I don't know what it is, but it's just not comedy. It's not satire. It's outrageous, but it really doesn't even rise to the level of clever. It's just bombastic and loud. And while there is comedy that's bombastic and loud, I don't think she
I mean, do people really laugh at what she says?
For example, let's compare her statement about Representative John Murtha: "the reason soldiers invented fragging," " OK, I'll admit it's clever, but is it funny? It's too obviously and blatantly mean.
Now compare that to the guy who said that Coulter looks like a "kneecap with hair." That's clever and it's funny because it's true. Look at her... I know it's difficult, but look at her. She does indeed resemble a "kneecap with hair."
Then there's the least likely option; that she actually believes what she's saying. Well in that case, let's just say that she's the best evidence against intelligent design. If there is a designer and that designer is indeed intelligent, you can't convince me that such a power would design an Ann Coulter.
I gotta say, deep down inside, it really must suck to be her...
