such as "joking" that the New York Times building should be blown up, or apartheid was justified because the whites in South Africa lived among "savages", but whenever a "liberal" says anything remotely critical of the current administration or right-wing ideology, he/she is immediately villified?
Go ahead with the bitchy comments. I've had my coffee today, so I'm ready.

I understand that she has a right to say it, and I have no problem with that.

Ok, here's another question: Does anyone know of a liberal pundit/commentator/whatever you call it that has publically called for physical violence against conservatives?
This is an honest question. I really don't know the answer. If you provide me with a name, and the facts jibe, you'll get 10 points.

Because there are people stupid enough to support her.

Ann Coulter's speech became cancelled by employing.....Ann Coulter you recognize what the yankee media isn't reporting? It became COULTER who canceled the lecture. She wasn't "silenced" or "banned" or something of the kind. She released the letter to the click, she stirred up the debate, and then even as it got here time for her to strap on her backbone and placed on a tutor, she were given chilly ft and sponsored out. Now she's synthetic this entire "loose Speech is banned in Canada" kerfuffle to get interest for herself and loose publicity for her last "lectures". Quelle wonder!

we thankfully are protected by freedom of speech. now if she were to say things that actually incited violence that would be a different story. the same reason that Al Franken can call right wing people big fat liars. the best defense is to 'leave no shot unanswered' be sure to fire back when it is obvious that it is a falsehood and call them on it. eventually people will hopefully see the light.

It is a free speech issue. When writing Voltaire's biography, S. G. Tallentyre attributed Voltaire to saying, "I disapprove of what you are saying but I will defend to the death your right to say it." That is the quote that I tend to follow. You can simply use Ann Coulter's hate message to discredit her and her supporters during the upcoming election. As it is your right to freedom of speech to do so.

She is a lightening rod. It is her job to make outlandish statements to drive the political debate.
She is not an elected official, she can say what ever she wants outside of the normal parameters of restrictions, (fire in a crowded theatre)
She makes the statements to bring people out to get ideas out there. She speak es to the masses, and most of the masses are not educated enough to understand conceptual complications of real issues, so she lights a fuse and watches people respond.
She is a pun-dent. It is her job. The left has just as many people who say things just as ridiculous. It is there job, same rules for them.

liberals don't have the conservative flock mentality so they don't band together to rip apart a person.
liberals by their nature are more tolerant of other oppinions, even if they are retarded.
liberals by their nature ...( http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v477/dimmer/2004election_by_iq.png ) are more intelligent so they don't entertain/justify the whining of ignorant immature people..
and finally the only thing the current administration does really really well is character assasination, and I personaly am very proud that my people don't sink to those levels....

Irritating as it is, it's freedom of speech. She's allowed to have her say, as much as we don't like it (which I REALLY do not). Only thing that poor flaming liberals like myself can do is speak up as well.

Because we all need a good laugh now and then and, she sure can provide them. Talk about showing your intelligence level. I think she falls somewhere under that of the rock.
