Ann Coulter to Michelle Obama - You're No Jackie O.

Ann Coulter Bashes Michelle Obama

    Ann Coulter delights in scorching Democrats with scathing political rants -- but who knew the right-wing pundit was an aspiring fashion afficionado? Her new book features a ruthless assault on Michelle Obama's sartorial success.

    Getty Images

    Scoffing at comparisons between Michelle and Jacki O, Coulter bemoans the "freakish" fashion of our future First Lady: "the flipped-under hair, the sleeveless A-line dresses, the short strands of fake pearls -- would have been laughable if done by anyone other than a media-designated saint."

    Ironically, this attack is part of the TV personality's new book, titled "Guilty: Liberal 'Victims' and their Assault on America."

    Getty Images

    Predictably, Coulter (who, might we add, isn't exactly a fashion plate) isn't so scathing about fellow conservatives -- she heaps praise on Cindy McCain, writing: "[she] dressed well without freakishly imitating famous First Ladies in history."

    Getty Images

    Ann Coulter's snide jabs aside, the fashion community continues to bubble with excitement about Michelle Obama's stylish approach to politics -- and we can't wait to see what she'll wear to the inauguration later this month. Keep reading to see our predictions!

Yup, you guessed it: the much maligned Amanda Knox. "I wouldn't want to be her roommate," joked Ann when asked if she thought Amanda got away with murder. The ever-so-outspoken and controversial conservative wasn't shy to shed light on her thoughts.

No, you must be of no importance! I know you are ignorant!
John Doyle, the word "pig" doesn't do you justice. What a disgusting comment. Anne Coulter is a lady, a very intelligent one. Michelle, those of us with brains and a love of our country, know what she really is and what she belives and stands for. She is going to be a great role model for the G.I.T.H. , you figure it out.

Ann Coulter is a brilliant, quick of tongue albeit dwells in
the absurd. Her comments are detatched from constructive comments and are iinflammatory for the sake of attracting
attention to only herself

Since when is being a fashion plate a requirement to be first lady? And who in the heck does Ann Coulter think she is to be commenting on anyones looks??? At least Mrs. Obama doesn't have a huge Adam's Apple!

Poor Ann Coulter. Trying to be outrageous, again. I guess she is devastated that our country soundly renounced the McCain/Palin ticket, so she must retaliate. Has anyone noticed how vicious the Republicans are when they don't have the upper hand?
Well, since, two can tango, Ann Coulter, not only are you not our Ivy League educated soon to be First Lady. You are just a mean spirited, not aging so well, wench. Ooh, how does that feel? I am just being honest, so that is acceptable. Because
isn't that what Ann Coulter pretends to do?

Ann Coulter has no class...She is thin and shriveled up. She has about as much class as a character from a porn movie.

Those who are empty and sad people find fulfillment in judging and hurting others.
We all need to be aware of hidden agendas and money making schemes.
When there are no true newsworthy topics many use ignorant,uninformed, prejudicial words to sell books and make money. Ask if they are selling something- hmmmm book?
The civil war is over, the election is over- develop some character and spend time examaning yourself, not assessing someones dress.
How ridiculous, how sad.
This is not about politics, it is deeper than that.
This is about scavengers who emotionally devour others.

I am only so in gratitude to breathe the same air with you on this
planet. Dictionary optional
My earlier post still not posted. I think the nonsense of what the
woman wears is tragic compared to the state of this country. And I
will say it again....prophetic...when Ross Perot stated "The sucking
sound you hear are the jobs leaving this country." I do not care for
parties. Rep or Democratic. I like results and we have seen none in
forever.....But I do know we are being brought to our knees not only
here but across the world. I personally do not care what the first
lady wears. Let her shop where so many are forced to now......at the
Salvation Army or such. But to encourage the mean spirited and
hateful Ann is plain wrong!!!! Oh sorry, I did not use spell check,
dictionary or whatever...But I would rather be ignorant than so evil
as Ann Coulter.

Amen! And to compare to Jackie's life. Read about it sometime...all of you...read it...And just this past week on AOL news about Angie Dickenson and the president when anyone that has read so-o- o many books about the presidents. JFK was lucky to have had Jackie as first lady...But I think she compensated in her life lack of a relationship with her husband and had an affair with clothes. It was who she was...I would rather the new first lady be real...a mother and wife to our president and not a farce. Not focus on fashion but what is important to the people like food, jobs, health care, etc.

Ann Coulter is a butt ugly piece of worthless crap who doesn't deserve a platform. And neither do the rest of you losers who like her. That's who Ann Coulter is. Any other questions?

Ann Coulter is homely and viscious and I am sure Michelle Obama doesn't read her books or comments. Sad isn't it, such an ugly soul.

I personally don't care for either woman, but as wild as Ann Coulter looks in this pic, she has no room to criticize any- one else. She is very obnoxious and thinks she knows every-thing about "EVERYTHING"
