Coulter bomb

Ok, somebody must have had a few too many Appletinis before the show because, say what you will about her, she’s not usually one of the dumb ones:
Go to 2:50 and observe the body language and facial expressions. It’s fairly astonishing.
There was talk of war, and supporting wars. Then Coulter asked Maher, “What do you think about Libya and Egypt?”
“What about them?” asked Maher.
“Are you in favor of us intervening in those countries for purposes of regime change?”
“First of all, I didn’t think we were intervening in Egypt,” said Maher.
“Well, dropping bombs or something!” pleaded Coulter.
The panel, including Chris Hayes of The Nation and MSNBC, erupted in protest. “No, not in Egypt!” Coulter was like the school kid who gave the wrong answer and was obnoxiously called out in unison by her wiseass classmates.
Maher clarified, “No Egypt. No Egypt bombs, no. Just Libya bombs.”
“But we were threatening to which is why Mubarak left!” argued Coulter.
“No, we never threatened. No, no,” said Maher.
