Coulter Takes a Potshot at McCain

Carl Franzen Dec 14, 2009
Conservative dauphine Meghan McCain has ascended to the top rung of Republican pundits, but some of her fiercest detractors have come from the right. There are a few big reasons: She advocates gay marriage and bashes abstinence. She posted a racy photo of herself on her Twitter account. And she doesn't hesitate to whallop fellow travelers on the right, famously picking a fight with Ann Coulter in March.

Coulter threw fuel onto their feud this past weekend, joking on a late-night Fox News show that McCain resembled one of Tiger Woods's self-declared mistresses named Jamie Jungers. Fox played a pre-recorded interview clip of Jungers revealing details of her affair, to which Coulter then responded:
"Wait, Meghan McCain had an affair with Tiger?"
Other panel members chuckled and giggled. Later, Coulter reiterated the resemblance to ombudsman Andy Levy, sending the panel squabbling.
LEVY: Ann, you're as obsessed with Meghan McCain as the left is with Sarah Palin.
COULTER: Thank You
LEVY: So what's going on?
COULTER: Did you see the picture of that woman, it looked like Meghan McCain.
LEVY: It did
COULTER: Ok, well this whole table agreed...
McCain has yet to fire back.
