In her latest book, "Guilty: Liberal 'Victims' and Their Assault on America," the conservative firebrand stirs up controversy again, contending that liberals in America try to play victim when really, they're the bullies.
While she's at it, she points fingers at what she calls the liberal media.
"(The book is) basically about how victimhood is rewarded and everyone wants to be a victim," Coulter told CBS News. "It's about the rewards and praise you get for being a victim and the way liberals use victimhood and they oppress others."
At one point in "Guilty," Coulter remarks about an interview of Sen. Ted Kennedy by Early Show co-anchor Harry Smith in which Smith asks Kennedy if Barack Obama is at increased risk of being assassinated because he's African American. She dismisses the notion, saying presidential assassinations have been the work of left-wingers or people with no political leanings at all. She said conservatives Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and President George Bush are more likely targets of an assassination than the president-elect.
Coulter and Smith met face-to-face on The Early Show Tuesday, and didn't mince words about that issue or anything else.
Among other things, Coulter contended that liberals are at fault for the skyrocketing rate of out-of-wedlock births in the U.S.
Smith said, in one context, Coulter is a whiner, and accused Coulter of doing the very thing she claims liberals do: playing the victim.

See all 499 CommentsShame on you Harry.
You can take no issue with the facts of what she is saying, because they are facts. Don''t shoot the messanger.
I don''t know why they keep giving her a forum to spew her hatred.
Concorde5, you need to look up Lyle Rossiter, and get his book "The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness", and you will see what serious mental issues are. All liberals are sick, and they need serious intervention, or the country is doomed. If anyone places any faith in Hillary Clinton''s Media Matters, they are just plain stupid.
She makes controversial statements and gets the news to cover them. With the news coverage of her hate filled mantra, she reaches her consumer based, the brain dead. Why won''t CBS and the other networks catch on?
Very uncomfortable for the viewers.

Yea, crazy like a fox, a very cunning fox. Like Rupert Murdoch, she knows there is good money to be made exploiting ignorance, prejudice, and especially anger and hate.
She''s just grinding her axe, thats all.
Your goofy comment is a perfect illustration that the left has no standards, no playbook. You use a personal attack to try and make your "point". You and the liberals have no points to make. Ann is correct on every issue. The left just can''t take the truth. libertymind.com
Sure sure the right is right, they made the last 8 years so good for all Americans.(end sarcasm)
Since when was Jesus a victum?? He was our savior!! Please do not leave NYC. You will not understand morally honest people.
