Coulter claimed to be "anti-murder" and "anti-false accusation"

In her April 18 nationally syndicated column, right-wing pundit Ann Coulter claimed, "I have always been unabashedly anti-murder, anti-rape and anti-false accusation." Coulter's past statements, however, tell a different story.

Anti-murder?

"In this recurring nightmare of a presidency, we have a national debate about whether he [Bill Clinton] 'did it,' even though all sentient people know he did. Otherwise there would be debates only about whether to impeach or assassinate." [Coulter's book High Crimes and Misdemeanors: The Case Against Bill Clinton (Regnery, 1998)]

"I think the government should be spying on all Arabs, engaging in torture as a televised spectator sport, dropping daisy cutters wantonly throughout the Middle East and sending liberals to Guantanamo." [Coulter's December 21, 2005, column ("daisy cutter" is a nickname for the 15,000-pound BLU-82 bomb -- the largest conventional bomb in existence)]
"Would that it were so! ... That the American military were targeting journalists." [February 7, 2005, edition of CNBC's Kudlow & Cramer]
"I'm getting a little fed up with hearing about, oh, civilian casualties. I think we ought to nuke North Korea right now just to give the rest of the world a warning." [Quoted in a January 10, 2005, article in the New York Observer]
"My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building." [Quoted in an August 26, 2002, article in the New York Observer]
"We should invade their [Muslims'] countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity." [September 13, 2002, column]
Anti-false accusation?
Much of Coulter's career as a writer and TV pundit is marked by false accusations. For example:
She falsely accused University of Chicago professor Steven D. Levitt and Stanford University professor John J. Donohue III of "defending Roe v. Wade."
She falsely accused the Arizona Daily Star of anti-conservative bias for its decision to drop her syndicated column.
She accused Time magazine of liberal bias for its decision to feature an "elongated funhouse photo" of her on the cover of its April 25, 2005, edition.
She falsely accused The New York Times of "gratuitously out[ing]" gay children of prominent conservatives.
She called a white New York Times media critic an "Uncle Tom."
