Coulter is speaking at the USF.. Sun Dome today...One of the comments she has made in the past was stated That America should invade Muslims countires and attack their leaders and make them convert to Christianity.....This woman was paid 35,000 dollors to speak of a opinion that has no credit....I have no problem with Conservative speakers but i believe that they should really have some form of logic, and credit....she is a hysteria......she also bashed college schools for paying for liberal speakers to come and present topic yet she thinks it's okay for her to get paid to speak......What are your thoughts on this....What do the University of South Florida students think???

Her pay comes from the students funds.....so should the students have a say who speaks at the college?

She gets paid for nothing more than making inflammatory statements. She is the Jerry Springer of politics, but she is much more irresponsible.

Well part of America is going down hill in intellect right now. They accept stuff like that. Some of the people do at least. I wish people with that would just go to war themselves and see if it was a good idea. Perhaps she should complete a tour of duty in Iraq with her family 1st before she starts deciding to do that stuff. Perhaps if she stopped living in that comfy environment and making that kind of money she would see it differently when she was in combat duty and she would see it as not such a great idea. She needs a dose of common sense and no person deserves that much to speak.
Good point we cannot even repeat what she or pat robertson say because it is against the law. Something is wrong with this picture. Why are "Christian" "Leaders" saying things that are against the law? Are they perhaps radicals? Yep I think so.

Coulter is paid to mouth the very worst ideals of the fascist cabal. She is basically the authenticator of unspeakable thoughts. It's an important job. In a way she is like Cheney, as opposed to Bush. When Bush speaks, he mouths platitudes of tolerance, freedom, open society, compassion. He denies any and all allegation made against his group, he calmly lies about objectives, realities and strategies. Invariably the day after Bush makes some statement, Cheney steps up to the plate and makes the apposite statement (and yes, that is the word I intend)... Coulter's place in this pantheon of disinformation is to give voice to the lowest slime among them, to make them feel included.
Bush is nudge nudge, wink wink; Cheney is speak softly while visibly displaying a large stick; Coulter and her ilk in the media-publishing arm of the Ministry of Untruth... well their job seems to be saying the worst possible BS to keep the real uglies from worrying about all the mild sounding things Bush has to say to keep his cover.
That's just the way I perceive it of course. Maybe they're all just wonderful folks, and they mean well and Democracy is alive and well in America... dubious, but maybe.

She's VERY controversial. I'd have a problem with student funds going to speakers, left or right, unless they were really the cream of the crop.
If people are paying for tickets themselves, or it were free, I guess I'd say invite whomever you want.

Ann Coulter is free to say whatever she wants just like Al Franken and Jon Stewart are. It's called freedom of speech.

She is making money off her words with no regard that she is making conservatives look bad. If you wanna see quotes on what she has said go to wikipedia.org and you will see the madness that coulter has in her warped, little brain.

Idiotic and controversial speakers seem to sell tickets. Honestly, considering her "credentials" the university is more interested in ticket sales then in promoting knowledge by bringing in Coulter.

What I think of Ann Coulter couldn't be printed in a family newspaper, and I can't repeat it here either!

I like the way she is setting the stage for heroin chic since we're getting all this good cheap smack out of Afghanistan now.
