Looks like the GOP outreach to the Hispanic community continues unabated:
The Huffington Post | by Elise Foley
Conservative firebrand Ann Coulter and the Daily Caller's Mickey Kaus held a one-sided debate on Saturday that mostly served as a 50-minute screed from Coulter on the "browning of America" due to immigration.
Among other reasons to oppose reform, Coulter said: It would help Democrats.
<...>
Coulter said only MSNBC seems to have noticed -- and celebrated -- the "browning of America." "But if you don't celebrate it, you're a racist," she said sarcastically.
<...>
"It's not as if people crossing the border illegally in the back of trucks marked pico de gallo, hiding in barrels, running from the border guards -- it's not like they did not know what they were doing was wrong," she said. "Everyone acts like they stumbled into the country."

Expose 'em, baby.
Expose 'em.
BTW, you could always trash thread or ignore me. I really don't care

Pretty soon it's just gonna be a few withered old men cleaning their guns in a GOP circle-jerk of stupid.

(10,893 posts)why is Ann Coulter so obsessed with issues that are related to race and ethnicity? Surely there are other things she could've discussed instead of trying to divide people. How about the "jobs, jobs, jobs" mantra again that the GOP used in 2010? If they keep letting nutcases like this woman speak at their conferences, then all of the other voting blocks they struggle with (such as Hispanics, women, Asians, etc.) will eventually go the same way (towards Democrats) that Black voters have. I genuinely wish that this country could have two sane major parties again like old times instead of just one.

But because that's her gimmick, I can't get past the persona.
It's like she's a wax figure from Madame Tussauds', trolling for hate.

The grifter market in the GOP is a deep field and there's always retired grumpy doctors, failed VP candidates, and the stale presidential hopeful to one up you to the $$ cow. Hence you get messages like marriage equality being forced upon us, Obama is doing mythical things, and Ann Coulter running her mouth hoping desperately against hope to gain another 15 minutes of fame. For people that won't part with a dime to taxes they are more than happy to shake handfuls of dimes to these grifters for basically the whole lot of nothing they've ever done for them. That is today's GOP. Your in office today, to cash out tomorrow and join the grifters conventions.
