LAWRENCE KUDLOW (host): We got a couple of seconds before the break when you guys are all going to come back, but, Ann, I just want to give you first whack at this. Eason Jordan, top news executive at CNN -- I mean, to me, this is absolutely incredible -- this guy says at a big conference in Davos that the U.S. military is deliberately targeting and assassinating American journalists. Huh? He still has a job, huh? You got a take on that?

COULTER: Would that it were so!

KUDLOW: Would what were so?

COULTER: That the American military were targeting journalists.

KUDLOW: Oh, no! Don't go there.

1. At least she'd be safe that way.

Her and Gannon.

[MADem]

8. I don't go for killing, BUT

...it's awfully tempting to imagine designating her JOURNALIST FOR A DAY and tossing her into the fray....

Hmmmm, kinda like that caged hunting they are discussing on another thread....

[alittlelark]

2. Oh, she's sooooooooo funny.

yeah - really.

[Maraya1969]

3. This from the article also.....

Coulter said in a 2002 interview that "y only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building," as Media Matters for America has previously noted. McVeigh was convicted and executed for his role in the 1995 bombing of a federal building in Oklahoma City, killing 168.


This woman is evil.

[nodictators]

32. She is an enabler for right-wing violence and murder

Crazed, right-wingers hear her crap and take it as a justification for killing.

She ought be kicked off the air for remarks like those cited.

This is NOT free speech! The US Supreme Court has ruled that falsely yelling "Fire" in a crowded movie theater cannot be dismissed as "free speech" because it is highly likely to cause serious harm to innocent people.

Ditto, for Coulter's vile remarks!

[FreedomAngel82]

35. I think Coulter is a lunatic

[Mojambo]

4. She is so great!

She's one of the best things going for our side.

Coulter is my favorite winger, by far!

[Tux]

11. WHy?

Most right wingers would agree with her. If she quoted the Bible, she'd be our first woman president. Imagine that: Coulter as pres with PMS.

[sellitman]

34. Great visual!

Thanks....now i will have nightmares tonight and not get any sleep.

[Clark2008]

47. People with Adam's Apples generally don't ever experience PMS

Just sayin'...

;)

[Fire Bush]

12. Mine too!

I had a theory for a long time that Ann is actually a hard-core, flaming ultra left wing nut and that she is actually on a mission to make righties look as stupid as possible. All that was confirmed with the Canadian troops in Vietnam thing.

God bless you Ann Coulter... God bless you!! :toast:

[FreedomAngel82]

36. LOL If she's doing that

then she's really doing a good job on the mission and making a lot of money. Either she is doing that or she really is that stupid. :shrug: And here she claims to have all this education. Eh. I don't see it. The Canadian thing is still hilarious!

[tsuki]

15. She is a true fRight Wingnut. Problem is, she is the spokes person

for the fRight Wing.

[Jeff in Cincinnati]

21. I Love Ann Coulter

Everytime she opens her mouth, more independent voters become Democrats. Keep talking, Annie. Keep talking.

[EC]

5. Who the hell DOESN'T she want killed? .....n/t

[noonwitch]

24. Sean Hannity.

She seems to like him.

[tuvor]

6. I've said it before and I'll say it again

ann coulter is to serious journalism what Hulk Hogan is to professional sports.

DON'T FEED THE TROLL. SHE FEEDS OFF OF YOUR ATTENTION.

[Jamastiene]

7. Absolutely,

I've thought that many times. I wasn't even aware of her until just after 9/11 when Barbara Olson was killed at the Pentagon site. It appeared to me that she immediately reared her ugly head after that to replace the last blonde Repug who made outrageous statements just to test people's limits of how much crap they'd listen to.

[JI7]

10. agree, most of what she does is to get attention

why give it to her. i'm thinking she might be doing these things also to get Republican men more into her but even they probably don't like her much.

[Lexingtonian]

9. 'Off with their heads! Off with their heads!'

Anne has turned into Lewis Carroll's Queen Of Hearts, and every talk show she gets on turns into Alice In Wonderland.

[jdots]

13. Coulter should be used for an anti matter power generator

she gives maggots a bad name Coulter will down in history as one of the most evil humans to ever exist.

[saracat]

14. Coulter is a product of Bill Maher's imagination!

[Vickers]

16. C'mon, somebody post a link to the "pie incident"

She showed how tough she was, squealing and running from A PIE.

:eyes:

[FreedomAngel82]

37. That was funny

And then after she ran away from the pie she looked over at the area where it came from and tried to look all tough like she was going to scold the person. lol. That was funny.

[mattclearing]

17. Ann Coulter is a horrible person.

Not to mention a waste of our valuable time.

[Vermonster]

33. Ann's no journalist

She's a pundit- it's her JOB to get the LEFT riled up and the RIGHT amused.

I don't understand the attacking her for her journalistic integrity- she's obviously not- she's an opinion writer, much like Franken or Garafalo. None of them are to be taken as a serious voice of reason for their cause.

[Patchuli]

48. Not a good comparison!

Please do not compare that harpy with Al Frank of Jeanine Garafalo!

There's a lot of difference between an opinion writer with no ethics to two opinion writers with high ethics.

Ann Coulter is a cruel joke!

[baldguy]

18. Why aren't people up in arms over this?

Ward Churchill gets death threats because he suggests that Americas oppressive foreign policies cause those oppressed to retaliate. And people who benefit from those policies may not be innocent bystanders.

When Anne Coulter calls for the murder of American citizens because their political views differ from hers, what does she get? Book deals, speaking engagements, and national exposure on talk shows.

:puke:

[DemocratSinceBirth]

19. Maybe Because The Right Wing Rewards Their Wackos...

The National Review did fire her after she called for war on Islam....

She's a jackbooted jackass....


And if Ward Churchill's argued that America should expect retaliation for their actions and left it at that he wouldn't be as nearly as controversial as saying some of those killed on 9-11 were deserving of their fate based on the occupation they chose...

[baldguy]

22. So: Coulter has a right to be a jackass and Churchill doesn't?

Sounds like a double standard to me.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

23. Did I Say That?

He should keep his job but I'm not going to the ramparts to defend the substance of his comments....


Both say outrageous things to get them noticed and are obviously very successful....

[bunkerbuster1]

25. The National Review "fired" her, true

but they've always been happy to peddle her books on their website.

Just sayin'. (Of course, I've used the line you just used when arguing with Freepers; it's useful to establish that her conduct has been considered well beyond the pale by some respectable conservatives, at least.)

[FreedomAngel82]

38. It is disgusting and mixed up

Yet Churchill gets attacked and everything for having the same rights as Coulter. It's so disgusting! If Churchill was a republican I bet he wouldn't be getting attacked. What a bunch of sicko's!

[Azathoth]

20. It's that time of the month for Ann

The time when she needs her estrogen shots, before she starts growing facial hair again...

[zulchzulu]

26. Isn't Coulter a "journalist"?

Perhaps she'd like to be a willing example of target practice.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

27. Coulter a journalist?

Sure! If the word JOURNALIST starts with a WH and ends with ORE.

[zulchzulu]

29. I'd call her a "journalist" so that her own hateful shit could make her...

...target practice for the people she so wants to have assassinated.

[FreedomAngel82]

39. Maybe we need to remind Ann

she is one of them. She has a lot of hate in her, doesn't she?

[Jack Rabbit]

44. No more than Gannon

!!

[McCamy Taylor]

28. Ann needs to lay off the anabolic steroids!

[LinuxInsurgent]

30. whatever...

she admitted it herself...she likes to make outlandish statements to see liberals squirm...she gets a sexual turn on about it.

Don't pay attention to this moron...everyone already knows she's a loony...even rightwingers.

[FreedomAngel82]

40. Sexual turn on?

Now that is disgusting. :puke: I guess she has a hard time finding a man so she has to find it somewhere. :shrug:

[leesa]

31. So it never occurs to the idiot Kudlow that the US military might be fully

on board with Ann Coulter's line of thought? And she still has a job? Huh?

[Laurab]

41. This "woman" should be locked up. n/t

[Greyskye]

42. Anne Coulter is the Zell Miller of conservatives

There have got to be some repubs out there who are decent enough human beings to be embarrased by her rantings.

[orleans]

43. Her parents must be so proud

(they've probably changed their last name so no one knows they're related to her)

[Dark]

45. She already wished the Times reporters were dead. What's new? n/t

[Melynn]

46. Coulter just says this stuff to provoke a reaction

still it's a irresponsible statement.

[Bouncy Ball]

49. I think she should have a NATIONAL forum

I think she should have her OWN TV show, on three networks, shown seven times a day. For an hour each time.

I think she should be able to say whatever crosses her little insane birdbrain all those seven hours a day, seven days a week.

I think she should be ENCOURAGED to say EXACTLY WHAT SHE FEELS.

About Democrats, journalists, Muslims, people who aren't American, liberals, liberal professors, poor people, non-Christians, Europeans, Canadians, illegal immigrants!!!

It would be FAN-fucking-tastic for the Democrats.

Keep talkin' Ann! Keep talkin'! Hell, I wish she would say even crazier shit. I wish she'd come out with a book entitled "Ann's Crazy-Ass Thoughts on EVERYTHING." I love to bring up her latest crazy shit when I'm talking to a bush voter, and if they don't agree with her, I love to tsk-tsk and gently imply that maybe they aren't really a republican if they don't agree with her. Throws them for a HELL of a loop.

But most of all, I wish the Republican National Committee would make her the PARTY CHAIR!!!! THE OFFICIAL PARTY SPOKESMAN!

She'd end up scaring the SHIT out of most people. And destroying the repukes.

Oh it'd be great!

ANN COULTER FOR RNC CHAIR!!!!!
