He titles his second chapter Ann Coulter: Nutcase which points out several faults and inaccuracies in her book, Scandal. Additionally, Franken mentions how Coulter lies about her age on either her Connecticut driver’s license which says that she was born in 1961, or her Washington DC license which states that she was born on 1963. She claims that the younger license carries the correct date, which means that she voted underage as a sixteen year old. Franken’s point is not to call her out on a two year age difference, but to highlight the fact that she has fake information documented on a government ID, a felony under the US Patriot Act; and further suggest possible paralleling behavior (Franken 8). Coulter is also called out for not fact checking and mistakened liberal, Evan Thomas of being related to Norman Thomas; who she states ran for president four times when he in fact ran for six, information that would have been beneficial to her argument had it been true that he was the son of Norman. Franken states that a “simple phone call” could prevent this issue and continued to include a run down of his phone call to mr.evan thomas to prove his point-- his father is not norman
