Conservatives...?

Question

What do you think about Ann Coulter? I personally think she is brilliant! A little rough around the edges at times, but her ideas and presence is one of the most dominant in politics today. What are your thought and have you read any of her books?

Ummm...Reverie, that's the reason I like her! She shuts people like you up! haha

Answer 1

LOVE HER!! She is not afraid to say what other people are afraid to say. And I love her even more because she pissed Hillary Clinton off!!

Answer 2

Here's some quotes from Ann Coulter. I definitely would not use the word "brilliant" to describe them.

"Even Islamic terrorists don't hate America like liberals do. Even Islamic terrorists don't hate America like liberals do. They don't have the energy. If they had that much energy, they'd have indoor plumbing by now."
Slander, p. 6

"I think we had enough laws about the turn-of-the-century. We don't need any more." Asked how far back would she go to repeal laws, she replied, "Well, before the New Deal ... [The Emancipation Proclamation] would be a good start."

"My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building."
as quoted in the New York Observer, Aug. 20, 2002

"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war."

"I think [women] should be armed but should not [be allowed to] vote. No, they all have to give up their vote, not just, you know, the lady clapping and me. The problem with women voting -- and your Communists will back me up on this -- is that, you know, women have no capacity to understand how money is earned. They have a lot of ideas on how to spend it. And when they take these polls, it's always more money on education, more money on child care, more money on day care."

"These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by griefparrazies. I have never seen people enjoying their husband's deaths so much." -on 9/11 widows who have been critical of the Bush administration

Answer 3

I am not a Conservative, but I must chime in. A sample of her heartfelt, truthful book: (so very sarcastically said)
In "Godless: The Church of Liberalism," the uncompromisingly right-wing Coulter writes the Jersey Girls have no right to criticize President Bush or any of the failures that led to the terror attacks.
"These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzis," Coulter writes.
"And by the way, how do we know their husbands weren't planning to divorce these harpies? Now that their shelf life is dwindling, they'd better hurry up and appear in Playboy. . .
"These self-obsessed women seemed genuinely unaware that 9/11 was an attack on our nation and acted as if the terrorist attacks happened only to them."
So, what I don't get is the fact that Conservatives say that Coulter says what other people want to. Who wants to call these women harpies and insist that they pose for Playboy before their shelf life dwindles? Is that what Conservatives want to argue about, is criticism really what all Conservatives want to dish out, but are too frightened to, instead leaving it up to Coulter?

Answer 4

I would say she is the same in many ways, except ideology, as left extremists. They say something contoversial to get noticed, then use the free publicity to air their stance. I may agree with Ann more often than not, but I am tired of the name calling.

Answer 5

Most conservative men think she's a sleazy broad.

And,no matter what your politics,she IS a testament to post-911 far right vulgarity.

The truth hurts that she lies so shamelessly.

Answer 6

She is a cruel and nasty woman who has no concept of the truth. It is a shame that anyone would give her a forum for her hate filled tirades.

Answer 7

I think she makes a lot of sense, she offends the liberals, but after all, the truth hurts

Answer 8

EEEEW and HELL NO. If you're going to be a conservative follower, at least look up to somebody who can logically back their arguments without being a close-minded, biggot, bible-thumping *****.

Answer 9

... she's the new Michael Moore, just on the other side... a blowhard that twists the facts and people that don't have enough sense to see through her crap love her... there is a sucker born every minute...

Answer 10

yes,,, she writes and says that the people dying in the war on terrorism are enjoying the death of their loved one
she also said "Jesus wasn't a panty-waste"

Answer 11

Boy, I couldn't disagree with you more. If I told you what I think of her, I'd get banned here.
