Are you a liberal? Well, according to this scholarTea Party person, you are brainwashed. That “Jewish guy,” what’s his name, is funding liberalism and we are all sheep.
But the burning question, the real debate, is whether or not
President Obama is homosexual or bisexual. Yes. They are
seriously discussing this. Aside from calling him a Muslim, a Kenyan,
a pot smoking Socialist, a Communist and a terrorist, he wants to take
away your guns and he beats seven-month old fetus babies over the head. Her news sources? Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and “informative” Tea Party meetings.
Seriously, these people are scary and they vote. These are the folks complaining that Sarah Palin isn’t president.
Watch and weep.

Rightwing columnist Ann Coulter continued vilifying immigrants as criminals Wednesday in a column poking fun at people with “comically foreign” names.
The column attacks the Obama administration for allowing the federal government to hire health care “navigators” without
requiring them to pass a criminal background check. The navigators are
charged with taking down applicants’ personal information when they
apply for health care through the exchanges established by the
Affordable Care Act.
Riffing on the theme of health care and criminality, Coulter presents
a list culled from Justice Department press releases of people recently
convicted of health care fraud.
Do you notice anything that stands out about the list of
convicts? Would any of their names have sounded strange to Ben Franklin?
Of 22 people convicted of defrauding American taxpayers by fraudulently
billing Medicare or Medicaid, at least 17 have almost comically foreign
names.
It is generally not clear from the list of names or the Justice Department press releases
whether the people are foreign or American. Spanish surnames have
existed in what is today the United States for nearly a century longer
than English ones.
Nevertheless, Coulter points the finger at U.S. immigration policies.
None of the scammers should be foreigners! We can’t do anything about our native-born crooks, but why are we importing them?
Enormous, unwieldy corrupt government programs run by arrogant
bureaucrats would be bad enough in 1950. But after decades of our Third
World-only immigration policies, one can't help noticing that Medicare
and Medicaid are beckoning Disneylands for foreign-born thieves.
The problem isn't their complexion, it's their culture. In America,
we think only dumb people become criminals. That's not true in the Third
World!
Crime rates are lower among immigrants than the native born,
according to a study cited by Pew last month. Crime rates rise among
second-generation immigrants to levels comparable to the native born,
the study says. Coulter has continually raised alarms
about the possibility of reform including a pathway to citizenship,
saying it would create a primarily Latino underclass of welfare
recipients that deplete government resources.
In fact, Latinos use less than their fair share of government benefits.
A study released last year by the Center on Budget and Policy
Priorities noted that non-Hispanic whites accounted for 64 percent of
the population in 2010 and received 69 percent of entitlement benefits.
Latinos, on the other hand, made up 16 percent of the population but
received 12 percent of the benefits. Check out more wrong things Ann Coulter says below.

Wrong. According to the Pew Hispanic Center, there were about 11.1 million undocumented immigrants in the country as of 2011. Migration from Mexico, the largest sending country of undocumented immigrants, now stands at net zero or less.

Latinos are government-dependent
Untrue. In fact, Hispanics use less than their fair share of government benefits,
according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. Latinos make
up 16 percent of the population, but receive 12 percent of benefits.
Non-Hispanics whites, by contrast, account for 64 percent of the
population
Latinos will automatically vote Democrat
Not if past experience is a guide. There are many absolutes in Coulter's mind,
but reality generally plays out with more nuance. The Latino vote tends
to lean liberal because Hispanics, in the aggregate. Latinos tend to
favor a larger government that provides more services and --
conservative talking points notwithstanding -- they tend to lean more
liberal than non-Hispanic whites on issues like abortion and gay
marriage.
ion, but receive 69 percent of entitlement benefits.
Yet
more crude and vulgar hate speech that we've come to expect from yet
another far-right "Christian". We quote (With no corrections to his
poor syntax, spelling and grammar): "why don't all you stupid
liberals wash the horseshit out of your brains. morally bankrupt hopers
and dreamers without any sense of reality. don't you ever call
conservatives Liars. You just hate when you're caught red handed
spreading satan's work all over the planet." - Greg Howard, owner of Pleasant valley pools (Lack of proper capitalization, his own). Our reply:
Wow, Greg Howard, we'll quote you on that on our main page, because you
certainly prove to be the typical and expected points of this page.
Unless you think those Republicans are perfect saints, everyone lies to
some degree, and no one here is stooping to your lie that anyone called
them "liars", but of course you probably can't comprehend the difference
between labeling someone "liar" and addressing lies on their own merits....because if lies make people "liars", then we all are.
Aside from that, anyone is free to call anybody anything they want.
It's called free speech or the First Amendment to the Constitution.
You're also "bearing false witness" about the administrators of this
page, who are two Registered Independents and two Registered
Republicans, who, as with Bob Dole, John McCain, Colin Powell, Bush's
David Frum, etc., are tired of right-wing extremism such as yours doing
damage to the Republican brand....speaking of which... You're not
only caught "red handed spreading satan's work" with your own lies by
misquoting people, but you stoop to the very UnChristian and primitive
emotionalism by evoking an ancient iron-age fairy tale (satan) that your
alleged "all-knowing, all-creator" created, yet "knew" people of your
low caliber would sin nevertheless. An alleged "god" who "creates"
an "eternal lake of fire", is no god, but a monster that would make
Hitler's torture chambers appear like playgrounds...oh wait...your
alleged "god" also "created" Hitler. You, Greg Howard,
owner-operator of Pleasant Valley Pools, are "caught red-handed"
clinging to your socialized belief system, built on lies and
contradictions about an "all-powerful god" (who would thus have power
over "satan") of which you have not one shred of proof and evidence for.
Your type of hate speech and generalizations are lies, Greg
Howard, as other Republicans point out, with proof and evidence in the
right-wing extremists' own words:
NEW
YORK, N. Y. – Television personality and right-wing political pundit
Ann Coulter experienced a presumably unexpected orgasm during a live
broadcast yesterday evening. The orgasm occurred during a frenzied
tirade against President Obama’s trade policy, rendering Coulter
temporarily speechless. Although edited out of repeat broadcasts of the
segment, the entire incident went out live without interruption. Ann Coulter, 51, is
well-known as a reliably-belligerent conservative mouthpiece and
well-weathered figurehead of the GOP’s flagship, Fox News. While famous
for taking pleasure in attacking her enemies, this is the first time
Coulter has been known to publicly bring herself to sexual climax during
such an attack. A icon to Mean-Girl
proponents around the world, Coulter has made it her life’s work to
prove that women can be just as horrible and pointlessly stupid as men.
Her spectacular lapse of self-control has added a new dimension to the
on-going controversy of her public career. “It lasted exactly
37.27 seconds,” said Daily Show intern, Kyle Permanentti, 22, whose
primary job every day is to dig through raw Fox News video for useful
clips, “It was horrible. The way she started shaking and sort of foaming
at the mouth. It was like watching an exorcism, or someone being
tortured by the Spanish Inquisition or something. To tell you the truth,
I’m feeling a little weak from hunger right now but I just haven’t been
able to keep anything down since I saw… it.” Unnamed sources from within Fox News claim the incident was allowed to go out live due to operator negligence. “Believe it or
not,” said Fox News lighting technician Jimmy Turnbaum, 47, who wished
to remain anonymous, “the control-room crew was watching a movie on one
of the porn channels instead of paying attention to the live feed. So
nobody even noticed Coulter, growling and moaning as she writhed up
there in front of the camera. Man, you should have heard the screaming
and yelling that went on after that. It was really something.” At least three Fox News control-room personnel are known to have been fired already. “Divisiveness has
always been Ann’s strong suit. Her overall lack of humanity has served
her well, especially when it comes to offending and alienating just
about anyone she decides to spew her venom upon,” said Coulter’s booking
agent, Millie Fasbinder, 63, “Something like this, though, I don’t
know. It worries me, you know? I’m afraid it might give people the
impression, however false it might be, that she actually is
human after all. Believe me, this sort of thing could easily destroy
the Ann Coulter brand among her core demographics if handled
incorrectly.” “I’m not sure this is a totally bad
thing,” said Coulter’s senior merchandizing sub-manager, Helmet
Daughton, 29, “The footage has already gone viral, of course, and Ann’s
getting a lot
of face-time. Recognition is 90% of the battle, after all. Like they
say, there’s no such thing as bad publicity, right? I mean, just think
of all the dudes out there, right now, workin’ it to what could well be
Ann’s career-best media moment? That’s what we, in the business, call influence, Jack! It doesn’t matter if they love her or they hate her. The only thing that counts is that they’re paying attention to her. Eyes on the page, my man. Eyes on the page.” Popular blogger and
unabashed left-wing feminist, Naomi Hempridge, 26, admitted that the
sight of Coulter’s on-air orgasm confused her. “I feel very
wrong about saying something like this,” Hemprdige explained, “but I
honestly think seeing her gurgling on the screen like that… well, I
think it might have turned me straight. Or at least severely frigid. I mean, oh my god, what if I looked like that when I… well, I can’t even think about it.”
Ann Coulter: Shutdown Was 'Magnificent' And 'Run Beautifully' By GOP (VIDEO)
"The shutdown was so magnificent, run beautifully. I'm so proud of
these Republicans, and that is because they have branded the Republican
party as the anti-Obamacare party." --Ann Coulter, who also told Sean Hannity that Obamacare was
designed to fail so that single-payer health care can replace it. Here's
what the latest polls say about how the GOP fared with the public.
How Bad Is It? Even Ann Coulter Has Turned On Conservatives
The right-wing gadfly is on the attack again—but this
time she's going after her fellow nutjobs. Michelle Cottle on what the
freak-out reveals about the GOP's splintered base.
Forget the shopworn Yeats’s lament about how the center cannot hold; in
the current GOP internecine cage match, even the fringe is starting to
come apart.
On Monday,
conservative provocateur Ann Coulter visited Sean Hannity for a
plug-her-latest-book sitdown, during which her host tossed out what he
no doubt assumed would a typical conservative-colleagues-in-arms
softball: “Establishment Republicans are at war with the Tea Party base,
and I’m angry about it!” But Coulter slammed it, so to speak, to the
opposite field, going on a tear against Newt Gingrich, Todd Akin, Mark
Sanford, and Liz Cheney, whom she declared to be “hucksters, shysters,
and people ripping off the Republican Party for their own
self-aggrandizement, for their own egos, to make money.”
First,
let us give the requisite nod to the rich irony of one of the GOP’s
most cynical button-pushers professing outrage over ambitious
conservatives’ desire to profit personally at the expense of the party’s
greater good. This is, after all, a woman who has grown rich and famous
fueling Republicans’ image as a pack of extremist nutjobs with
made-to-inflame statements such as: “Our blacks are so much better than
their blacks”; “We just want Jews to be perfected, as they say”; “I have
never seen people”—meaning the 9/11 widows—“enjoying their husbands’
death so much”; “I don’t really like to think of it as murder. It was
terminating [abortion provider George] Tiller in the 203rd trimester”;
“I think the government should be spying on all Arabs, engaging in
torture as a televised spectator sport, dropping daisy cutters wantonly
throughout the Middle East, and sending liberals to Guantanamo”; and “If
we took away women’s right to vote, we’d never have to worry about
another Democrat president.”
Now
that that’s out of the way, back to Coulter’s tête-à-tête with Hannity.
Part of what made her rant so interesting was that it clearly caught
her host off guard. When Hannity expressed dissatisfaction with the
current intramural GOP warfare, he was inviting Coulter to tear into the
soft underbelly of people like Sen. John McCain, Rep. Peter King, and
other assorted RINO squishes who don’t believe that crashing the global
economy is the best way to run a nation. Instead, Coulter gouged a
string of fellow conservatives, leaving Hannity struggling to get a word
in edgewise. Coulter heaped special scorn on Dick Cheney’s elder
daughter. “Why should we be having—and I love Liz Cheney—but why should
we be having a rancorous primary against a good Republican senator other
than for Liz Cheney’s ego?” she demanded. This put poor Hannity, a
loud-and-proud Liz fan, in an awkward position. But when he gently
protested that, far from being an egomaniacal climber Liz Cheney is
genuinely “more conservative” than her opponent Mike Enzi, Coulter
slapped him down: “No, she isn’t.” Hannity was left to whine meekly,
“She’s not a shyster, so let’s be clear.”
Everyone in the party is fed up with everyone else, and no one seems to have any idea how to stop the madness.
So much for a united conservative front.
Of
particular note was the composition of Coulter’s chosen enemies list, a
list she said represents the Republican Party’s failure to “concentrate
on winning.” Todd Akin—sure, everybody agrees he turned out to be a bad
bet. But Mark Sanford? Last time I checked, he won his race.
And, yes, Newt being Newt, there’s every reason to assume that his 2012
long-shot run was primarily about scoring himself fatter book contracts,
increased speaking fees, and a shiny new TV show. But Liz Cheney? That
gal radiates a desire to win so raw it chills the blood. (If I’m Mike
Enzi, I’m sleeping with one eye open and a loaded pistol by my bed.)
Sure, all of these folks share healthy egos and a scorching ambition,
but come on, we are talking about American politics here.
That
said, Coulter’s scatter-shot attack was telling, as was Hannity’s
half-hearted pushback. A master of exploiting the political zeitgeist,
Coulter understands that smacking fellow Republicans is the hot trend,
and she is too savvy a (cough) huckster to miss such an opportunity.
But, as the chaos spirals, Republicans seem to be having an ever-harder
time figuring out where it is they want to point fingers or lob bombs.
Everyone in the party is fed up with everyone else, and no one seems to
have any idea how to stop the madness. Even folks like Coulter and
Hannity, who have done so much to create the contemporary climate of
over-the-top GOP crazy, can’t agree on how to deal with what they have
created. How do you get Frankenstein’s monster back under control when
no one can even agree on who the monster is?
That said, you have to give Coulter props for knowing how to hawk a book.
