Ann Coulter Talking Action Figure!!!???

The Horor

This is slightly frightening... This has to be some sort of sign of impending doom or something. I'm just wondering when O'Riley is gonna get his own action figure with the "Kung-Fu Grip"

I searched and hope no one elsehas posted this.

Oh, we've discussed the "Goebbels with tits" doll before.

But I can't get enough of Ann myself.

Re: the Dubya Action Figure, I enjoyed this part:

Quote:
Talking Presidents’ newest action figure, George W. Bush: Top Gun, is something new for the company.
The figure does not talk but does come dressed in a full flight suit, helmet, goggles, breather and tanks that are identical to the ones George Bush wore when he landed on the flight deck of the U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln. The flight outfit comes with pouches, pockets, straps, buckles and all the accessories of an original.
Were they worried the doll would flub its lines, too?

Speculation: How many of these figures are bought by/for kids, and how many are bought by grown adults looking for something to fuel their mental masturbation fantasies?

Somehow, I have a very hard time imagining little Suzy opening presents on Christmas morning, her face lighting up with joy as she squeals, "An Ann Coulter doll! Just what I wanted! Thank you, Jesus!"

What are you talking about?! If I were eight years old I'd LOVE to have a Coulter doll. I could round up my little sis's barbie dolls and have the army men execute them for not being marketed as a conservative doll. Damn them free thinking liberal Barbies...

gluteus: Obviously, the CIA shouldn't have told Bush that his doll would be a talking model.
