Ann Coulter to speak at county GOP dinner

07:08 AM CST on Wednesday, January 17, 2007

By Monty Miller Jr. / Staff Writer

Firebrand conservative author and columnist Ann Coulter will be the keynote speaker at the upcoming Lincoln-Reagan Day event, an annual fundraiser conducted by the Denton County Republican Party.

Party members wanted a big name who could fire up the county’s Republican base, she said, and Coul­ter definitely fits the bill.

“This year we wanted a conservative, celeb­rity-type speaker,” Edmondson said. “I’ve heard her in person and it’s amazing. She’s very entertaining.”

The event, which will be conducted at the Hyatt Regency Hotel at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, should attract regular folks as well as large donors to the county’s majority party, she said.

Coulter, who is sure to draw the ire of local Democrats, is expected to share her thoughts on the Republicans’ loss in the November election and talk about what the future may have in store for the GOP. Coulter’s syndicated column runs every Saturday in the Denton Record-Chronicle .

The outspoken columnist and New York Times bestselling author has a long history of being a thorn in the side of liberals, but last year, she became a linchpin for independents and moderates as well, when she accused a group of widows from the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attack of “enjoying their husbands’ deaths.”

Local radio talk show host and Dallas Morning News columnist Mark Davis will emcee the event.

I note that this is the dinner for the Denton County GOP, but apparently Ann can't be bothered to actually come to Denton County, so county Republicans will take their money to Dallas ... so much for Denton county

2. Don't you have to charter Ann a 747 to get her to come?

I saw once a list of all the shit you have to provide Ann Coulter when you contract with her to speak at your event. You must charter a private jet--Ann doesn't do turboprops, it's gotta be something like a Gulfstream--a stretch limo, provide food, a dressing room...that AND present her with a certified check for something outrageous, like ten thousand dollars.

Maybe they figured that by the time you paid to transport Ann Coulter and her entourage via stretch limo from DFW to Denton County, any money you'd actually make off selling tickets to her little outburst would have been absorbed.

So they're keeping Ann out of Denton County. Consider that a bonus.

6. Oh, I do

I just find it amusing that all these Chamber of Commerce types in Denton County would invite her to spew her venom in another county, LOL

5. Is she going to wear that same skanky dress that she wears for TV interviews?

Will she hire cream-pie thugs to portray disgruntled Dems?

Will she keep her favorite pic of Joe McCarthy taped to her crotch?

9. It's NOT the same skanky dress!

Have you ever seen "The New Yankee Workshop"? The show that started out on public TV (reruns are on HGTV) where the guy with the strongest New England accent on television goes into his unbelievably well-equipped workshop and builds something?

The guy i nquestion in Norm Abrams. And for many years, Norm went on television every week dressed in a red plaid flannel shirt.

Yes, this is getting somewhere.

Anyway, on one of his shows he did something that went in his closet. He opened the closet to install the item, and all that was in there was this long row of red plaid flannel shirts.

What you guys don't realize about Ann Coulter is that she doesn't own a little black dress. She owns fifty of them, all exactly the same.

10. And all made by

a guy with a strong New England accent in an unbelievably well-equipped workshop? :shrug:

[Frank Cannon]

12. Hey, you should have seen that guy's workshop

It looked like something you'd see at a Lockheed-Martin plant.

I imagine anyone could fabricate a decent-enough looking wooden rocking chair when they have enough equipment to build and launch a satellite into space.

11. "Lincoln-Reagan Day event"

:wtf:

Those two names do not belong together in the same sentence, unless it is a comparison of good vs bad.

13. That was my take on that too

The "Republican Revolution" was Abraham Lincoln spinning in his grave. LOL
