> [@Budget\_Player\_Cadet](#): > > But seriously, Anne Coulter is about as honest, relevant, and sane as Michael Moore, if he was on some sort of psychotic drug cocktail. The woman is a nut, and should not be conflated with most republicans in any case. Anne Coulter has been spouting nonsense for several years now. Conservatives have had ample opportunity to distance themselves from her and have never done so. So at this point, it’s fair to assume Anne Coulter represents conservatives. Republicans need to start treating people like Anne Coulter the way Democrats have treated people like Jeremiah Wright. More _“I don’t agree with what that person said”_ and less _“Heh heh, I wish I could get away with saying that.”_ ---

> [@brittekland](#): > > Should we be responding to her caca? Pigs shit every day, and know one cares about it. It’s when a large group of people with a not inconsequential amount of political power worship at the feet of the pig and willingly shovel said shit down their own throats that we sit up and take notice. What they are willing to swallow may be no more than a source of amusement, but what they spew back out because of it can cause damage to others. ---

“As usual, you’ll just keep asserting that conservatives are racists while arguing for increased government programs to help those poor blacks (because they’ll never make anything of themselves without constant liberal hand-holding, dotcha know).” How to Build a Strawman: Step 1 - put words in other people’s mouths they didn’t actually say; Step 2 - ‘debate’ (or, in your case, just belittle) their imaginary postion. ---

These are my favorite Ann Coulter quotes. > [@](#): > > It would be a much better country if women did not vote. That is simply a fact. In fact, in every presidential election since 1950 — except Goldwater in '64 — the Republican would have won, if only the men had voted. > [@](#): > > If we took away women’s right to vote, we’d never have to worry about another Democrat president. It’s kind of a pipe dream, it’s a personal fantasy of mine, but I don’t think it’s going to happen. And it is a good way of making the point that women are voting so stupidly, at least single women. > [@](#): > > In 1960, whites were 90 percent of the country. The Census Bureau recently estimated that whites already account for less than two-thirds of the population and will be a minority by 2050. Other estimates put that day much sooner. One may assume the new majority will not be such compassionate overlords as the white majority has been. If this sort of drastic change were legally imposed on any group other than white Americans, it would be called genocide. Yet whites are called racists merely for mentioning the fact that current immigration law is intentionally designed to reduce their percentage in the population. > [@](#): > > So for those of you who haven’t read any of my five best-selling books: Liberals are driven by Satan and lie constantly. I think the last one was a joke but it’s hard to tell. ---
