Now she's got a reason to put him on trial in front of the Human Rights commission. It matters not if they agree to accept the case (unlikely) or not (very likely). Either way, she's got something to talk about. SHe'll be in the Canadian papers at the very least for a fair while.

Victory Coulter.

A very stupid and unnecessary move by the university president. In fact, he practically shouted from the rooftop, "HEY, LOOK OVER THERE. THAT'S MY ENEMY!! GO TAKE A LOOK. SEE WHAT SHE HAS TO SAY!!! SEE FOR YOURSELF!!! DON'T MISS SEEING HOW RACIST SHE IS!!!"

Did he actually think she wasn't going to jump at that or, more hilariously, that she was going to temper her voice? How gullible is that?

And, of course, none of us slows down to look at a car wreck.

Meanwhile, if you can shut Jim Keegstra up, why can't you shut up Ann Coulter?

The answer is that Jim Keegstra wasn't in it for the money, therefore he never knew nor cared that there was a line you couldn't cross.

Ann Coulter knows where the line is because it's important to a long-term income stream. Michelle Malkin, basically the Asian (calling her a racist too?), visible minority version of Coulter, understands that too.

Unlike Coulter though, I think Malkin actually believes what she says.

To be fair she was already getting this press attention before the comments from the University President, I mean this thread existed before those comments came to light and there was already plenty of press. This extends her profile slightly, but it's doubtful it puts any more bills in her pocket.

And my point was never that the comments of the President weren't stupid given the situation, just that this doesn't make Coulter appear like some genius. At least not in my eyes. She comes off as a moron, from where I sit, who has no ability to grasp the basics of the law she's reaching for, it's a boy crying wolf. I get her intentions, and I guess for her goal it's the right move, but I just seeing her looking a bit more moronic than I saw her looking yesterday.
