I'm not doing this thread just to show how much I would really like to throw her in a pool of icey water, though now you know how much I do not like her. I want to know your opinions on this.

Keeping it short, Ann Coulter is a far-right US Republican Party member. A lot, if not most, of what she has said has been, well, unusual. Donald Trump is, in comparison, in need of much less conversation/debate/argument time than her.

Here are two links to give you some picture of who she is and what she does, if you do not already know, or want to know some more:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Coulter [mostly, if not fully, an independent point-of-view]

http://www.anncoulter.com/ [NOT an independent point-of-view, just her point-of-view]

So basically, what are your thoughts?
All responses are appreciated!

She adds nothing to the discussion, and is a dangerous provocateur.

Coulter's foreign policy views and especially comments she's made about the Middle East are loony in the worst way, and in general she's very disingenuous and polemical. I'm polemical, but unlike her I'm not (totally) insane. I think.

here's the important part: she's not an actual conservative, but a pseudocon. I can tell because of her extreme cynicism towards environmentalism, which she apparently considers a Marxist conspiracy. I recall one comment in particular where she railed against sustainable development and said something along the lines of "every conservative knows that it's God's mandate for us to populate the Earth until it's totally full and then populate Mars." this is something that actual conservatives, myself included, would never say, because it is diametrically opposed to the conservative ideals of community and continuity of tradition.

she also buys into the pseudocon "evolution is an atheist conspiracy" rhetoric, which tells me she uses her giraffe-like larynx rather than her brain to form opinions.

every now and then Coulter accidentally says something that I agree with, like how a stopped clock shows the correct time twice daily. she's most definitely not to be taken seriously, however.
