Screamboat Annie hearts Hillary

Sometimes, you just have to tip your hat to the real world, for clearly there are forces in effect that continue to create news that's far more surreal than anything created by the finest satirists in the land.

This story is not from The Onion. It's from
Editor and Publisher, a respected journalism industry magazine. And it might seem too good to be true, but it's not.

That's right, Republican spokesperson Ann Coulter has all but endorsed Hillary Clinton, not just in the race for the Democratic nomination but in the general election if she's going up against John McCain, a noted thorn in the side of right-wing demagogues from coast-to-coast. Her reasons? Hillary is a hawk, McCain is a closet liberal, and "she lies less than John McCain. And she's smarter than John McCain so when she lies she knows it."

I only wish I'd seen her Adam's apple bobbing like a yo-yo as she explained her reasoning. You think McCain's campaign will put out a press release pointing out Coulter's support for Hillary?
