Monica Crowley
| One of the |
| And a dirty dozen more |
Monica Crowley is a wingnut radio host who has carved out a niche for herself as the poor man's Ann Coulter. She is a right-wing populist who is repeatedly invited on Fox News as a guest, particularly on The O'Reilly Factor where she has served as a guest host that makes Bill O'Reilly look like a commie in comparison.

[edit] Background
Despite being a less successful version of Ann Coulter and Laura Ingraham, Crowley is the best educated of the three, holding a PhD in international relations. She worked for Tricky Dick as a research assistant before moving up the right-wing totem pole.
[edit] Shock jock
Crowley, like most ultra-right-wing pundits who are worried they'll become obscure if they don't create some drama, is known for her bizarre outbursts. For instance:
- A strange attack on the French for being "arrogant," which she bases on a survey that says most French people look at themselves in the mirror at least once a day. She declared that "The French look in the mirror and see perfection staring back at them. Some might say that's healthy self-esteem. I say they're delusional. The French are still dining out on the empire they lost three-hundred years ago."[1] (Also, 30 years doesn't seem like 300,[2] but thanks for the effort.)
- Saying that social programs are
civilizationa "narcotic" for the poor, which sounds hilariously similar in tone to something else.[3]
- Joking that Sandra Fluke was gay over Twitter.[4]
Today she spends most of her day screaming about Barack Obama being a "socialist." The liberal blogosphere got upset with her when she lied that Bush took only two vacations as president.[5]
[edit] Anti-science record
Being a wingnut, Crowley has declared man made global warming to be a hoax.[6]

Fox News babes - If you type her name into Google the top three suggestions you get are "Monica Crowley legs," "Monica Crowley feet," and "Monica Crowley hot," because the sexually-curious elderly that watch Fox don't seem to realize porn is a thing.
