The latest offering from satirist Leah Kauffman, the musical mind behind the 'Obama Girl' videos, takes a shot at conservative commentator Ann Coulter. The video, featured in a blog post on in the ABC blog Political Punch, goes after Coulter in a far more serious tone that her previous videos.

"The song features clips of Coulter making some of her more offensive comments about John Edwards, Arabs, and the 9/11 widows," Jake Trapper writes. "Playing off Coulter's recent pronouncement that Christians want to 'perfect' Jews by converting them, Kauffman makes light of Coulter's imperfections."

For Kauffman, it's no holds barred. "Mom says she's whore/ Dad says she's starved for attention," Kauffman sings in the video, "But she's got the hottest Adam's apple at the Republican Convention."

Kauffman refers to her Judaism throughout, usually contrasted by a controversial or infamous quote from Coulter.

Goes the chorus: "Perfect me/ Make me petty/ I want to be hateful like Ann Coulter/ Convert me/ To Christianity/ I want to be perfected," cut to a Coulterism, then: "Like Ann Coulter."
