Ann Coulter is a racist. There, I said it.

She has no sense of decency, no credibility, and no class.

Ann Coulter Attacks Gov. Nikki Haley As "An Immigrant And Does Not Understand America's History"

Fact: Governor Haley Was Born In South Carolina

Conservative firebrand Ann Coulter lashed out at South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley (R), who recently called for the removal of the Confederate battle flag from the state Capitol. Rather than respond to the Republican governor's message, Coulter dismissed Haley as "an immigrant" who "does not understand American history."

1. I can't say what I think of her because I would get tombstoned.

[Raster]

6. I wholeheartedly agree. There's many things I'd like to say about Ann, and none of them fit to print

Fortunately I value my 12 years at DU and will not stoop to that level. HOWEVER...

[Snotcicles]

2. Can you imagine how closed-off Ann Coulter's world must be. nt

[Wellstone ruled]

3. You got to be kidding.

Old Coulterkist doing her GOP got this.

[whatchamacallit]

5. Lol, like it's controversial?

[AndreaCG]

8. Exactly

[zappaman]

7. Funny you posted this...

I am watching her on Real Time right now and I honestly have never hated someone I've never met more than I hate her.

[onecaliberal]

10. I purposely skipped that part of his show.

The fact that people give that subhuman a platform pisses me off to no end.
I'm sick of hate spewing vile people being allowed on the airwaves. It IS part of the problem.

[ProfessorGAC]

23. I Watched It Last Friday. Unfortunately.

I should have done what you did and skipped that piece.

[tblue]

24. Me too. That's why God made fast-forward.

Thank goodness 3 of my favorite people were also on the show. Otherwise I wouldn't've watched any of it.

[Juicy_Bellows]

9. It's shtick.

Like a terribly foul and rotten Andy Kaufman.

[postatomic]

25. I liked Andy Kaufman

But, I agree. It's just a dog and pony show.

[Juicy_Bellows]

32. Oh yeah me too, I can see how that might have sounded like a criticism of Andy.

It was not - but Ann is just terrible. I wish we would stop paying attention to her - she makes an enormous amount of money just being as controversial and annoying as possible.

[themonster]

11. yep

Whenever I see Ann Coulter spewing her hatred, I wonder what her parents are like. Did they raise her with hate? Are her parents still living?

[alcibiades_mystery]

12. Lots of racists saying stupid shit these days...and they ain't all on the conservative side

Ahem.

[tularetom]

13. Nobody's been paying much attention to her lately so she has to say something outrageous

Come on people, ignore her. I'm not sure she really even believes all the crap she spouts, she's found her niche and she makes a fortune peddling incendiary bullshit to stupid ignorant people.

She's written another piece of shit book, entitled "Adios America" and as you might guess it's apparently an anti immigrant screed. So attacking the SC governor as "an immigrant" fits her meme nicely. And the dumb shits who buy her book don't even care that its untrue.

Part of the reason people buy her crap is because they think it pisses off Demcrats/liberals. If we stop reacting to her, she loses a lot of appeal to the illiterati.

[TreasonousBastard]

14. Meh. I don't think she believes half the shit she says...

She found her niche as a rightwing comic, pretty much the same as Limbaugh did.

The problem with both of them is that people take them seriously. Then they start to take themselves seriously. And the circle grows on itself.

Ignore them and they go away.

[Maru Kitteh]

19. Ignoring FUX, ignoring Limbaugh, ignoring Coulter

We've done it for years. They're still very much here.

[TreasonousBastard]

21. Limbaugh's finally talked himself out of a job...

it took a while, but he's cooked.

And you'll note that the right cracks up at Coulter's lines, but even they don't take her seriously. She's a side show, and the more we get upset, the better she plays. She thrives on liberal hate mail.

FAUX is a problem, because it actually pretends to be real nooz. However, check out your local Fox station and it's probably not much different from your local CBS or NBC station news-- it isn't here. Cable Fox is the biggest in cable nooz , but that's mostly O'Reilly, which is a problem but not that big of a one in the grand scheme of things.

I noticed that the VA used to play Fox on the TVs in the waiting rooms, but it's changed most TVs to local news. That may or may not mean anything. I have heard one reason for Fox being so popular is that the scroll on the bottom is the easiest to read so older viewers prefer it.

15. Racist and a moran is no way to go through life

[egduj]

16. Edgy.

[vinny9698]

17. I really believe that Coulter and her ilk are really in it for the money

They make a very good living selling their books and getting paid big bucks for their appearances.
It doesn't take any education, Rush Hannity both college dropouts, but they have it coming in

[Warpy]

18. She's ignorant and vicious.

It's really not a good combination. Fortunately, when her looks go, so will she.

[KeepItReal]

20. Looks to me like Ann Coulter was born and raised somewhere other than the Deep South: NYC

So she has zero standing on any issue of Southern heritage or legitimacy.

Look out "Bobby" Jindal, Coulter's coming for you next.

[Warren DeMontague]

22. She is, but I think whatever is wrong with her goes even beyond that.

There's just some stinky black sucking pit of goo at the core of her being, where most peoples' basic human decency sits.

[NanceGreggs]

26. And this would be news to - exactly who? n/t

[Kalidurga]

27. I appreciate all the hard work she is doing to make Republicans look bad.

She tarnishes the brand every time she opens her mouth. It has taken a couple decades because haters are gonna hate with or without a spokes person, but the days of hate are coming to an end. People are getting tired of it and then there is the problem the Republicans have with demographics.

[Gothmog]

28. Water is also wet

[brooklynite]

29. Well, you can understand her confusion...

Gov Haley is, er, "different":

Haley was born Nimrata Nikki Randhawa in Bamberg, South Carolina, on January 20, 1972, to an Indian Sikh family.

[Erose999]

30. OOOOOOOHHHH!!1! Coulter vs Haley! I love a good circular firing squad. Let me get my popcorn.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

31. Can't say what I think about her. nt
