Ann Coulter, the woman liberals (and a few conservatives) love to hate, takes on the myth of the tolerant liberal in her latest column.
You may have read that Pat Buchanan got a face full of salad dressing at a recent talk he gave at a university. He should’ve pressed assault charges. And isn’t this an ideological hate crime? The idiots should be punished for the physical act and their nasty thoughts.
I didn’t know Coulter was almost hit with with thrown food last year:
Last October, two liberals responded to my speech at the University of Arizona — during question and answer, no less — by charging the stage and throwing two pies at me from a few yards away. Fortunately for me, liberals not only argue like liberals, they also throw like girls. (Apologies in advance to the Harvard biology professors who walked out on Larry Summers in a demonstration of their admiration of “research,” not “revelation” — but this may account for the dearth of female pitchers in Major League Baseball.)Unfortunately for them, Republican men don’t react favorably to two “Deliverance” boys trying to sucker-punch a 110-pound female in a skirt and heels. The geniuses ended up with bloody noses and broken bones.
I don’t condone violence, but they got what they deserved. Live by the sword…

Update: Oh, yeah. Nobody knows the trouble we’ve seen…
Update II: Robbie Bise (whom I had the pleasure of meeting at a DC blogger meet-up last year) says: “It’s pretty dangerous to depict a whole ideological group as a bunch of anti-dialog, pie-wielding, hit-and-run gunmen. In fact, I think it’s about as responsible as depicting conservatives as a bunch of pyromaniac, gun-blazing, bomb-toting terrorists.”
