Comrade FDR

I usually avoid mentioning this pseudo-commentator by name, but this item from the top of the Editor and Publisher story "Campus Group Tweaks Coulter with Book Titles", by Dave Astor, gave me a good chuckle:

NEW YORK The liberal Campus Progress group held a contest to name columnist Ann Coulter's next liberal-bashing book. The winning entry — "Roosevelt: Wheelchair-riding, America-hating Terrorist" — was submitted by Baltimore-based Ryan Sniatecki, who will receive a talking Ann Coulter action figure.

I'm sure this is so funny partly because it must be what's one the mind of so many God-fearing, American-loving Republicans these days: that FDR was a closet communist. Witness their irrational hatred of Social Security, the landmark New Deal program.
But just the idea of that action figure is scary.
