Maybe Coulter was so jonesing for another R rated Bill joke--the joke: Hillary will be "the first woman in a Clinton administration to sit behind the desk in the Oval Office instead of under it,"--that she could overlook Clinton administration women like Janet Reno, Donna Shalala and Madeleine Albright.
It still doesn't excuse a line like, "If you've ever wondered whether the Democrats have become a bunch of women, consider that they have now adopted the feminists' motto: "That's not funny!"
Yes its 1972-style woman bashing! Packed on ice from the days when classified ads read, "help wanted Gal Friday" and letters began, "Sir."
Even though it might be said of Coulter as it's been said of Madonna that she has the body of a hooker and the mind of a pimp, she still must realize that speaker and reader are not presumed male in 2007. And that the Speaker of the House, many senators and several governors are a bunch of women.
Finally, there's Coulter's writing itself--or to be more accurate, pasting. There is no bigger giveaway to creeping obsolescence and pedantry than quoting and repeating yourself.
Except for about 20 pages of new material, If Democrats Had Any Brains, They'd Be Republicans is nothing but out takes from previous books and forced attempts at one-liners.
And like the worse pastiche of homespun aphorisms, the sayings are thrown together without any order or organization.
Coulter even seems to recognize this shortcoming, making the joke early in the book that if she's too "disjointed.. Barack Obama might accuse me of stealing his act." No worries there.
