Is Ann Coulter hot or what? This morning there is a post in which Ms. Coulter opines on the Grateful Dead. Evidently she attended about 67 concerts and the Jerry Garcia memorial. She shows again that she can turn a phrase - she called Deadhead concerts NASCAR for potheads (although she says she never toked up at a concert). She responds to a question - did you ever talk to one of the members of the band - "Oh yes, constantly. None of the band members were present for these conversations, but I talk to them. “Good show! Excellent Olympics opening ceremony, Mickey! Nice uniforms on those Lithuanians. Why don't you ever play “Pride of Cucamonga” in concert? The concert hall would go wild and it would make the cover of the New York Times! Did you guys really used to dose people?” Then she is asked how many other deadheads are conservative (a naive assumption here but the question nonetheless). She responds "Deadheads believe in freedom – not a government telling people how much water they can have in their toilets or where they can smoke or whether they should be allowed to own a gun. (Remember the photos of Jerry testifying before some Congressional committee while chain smoking? Yeah, he'd really bond with Henry Waxman.)"
Yup, Coulter is a marketer first class but also has a lot of intelligent things to say.
