Coulter Jokes About Poisoning Justice (Stevens)

[deadparrot]

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Conservative commentator Ann Coulter, speaking at a traditionally black college, joked that Justice John Paul Stevens should be poisoned.

Coulter had told the Philander Smith College audience Thursday that more conservative justices were needed on the Supreme Court to change the current law on abortion. Stevens is one of the court's most liberal members.

"We need somebody to put rat poisoning in Justice Stevens' creme brulee," Coulter said. "That's just a joke, for you in the media."

Coulter has made a career of writing and lecturing on her strongly conservative views.

1. F***.... she's in Little Rock?

That explains the sudden chill over my part of the state...

[MakeItSo]

5. Did Coulter's adam's apple bob up and down as he chuckled at his joke?

Does Coulter wear boxers or briefs?

2. Why anyone pays attention to her...

...is beyond me.

[tabasco]

8. The Secret Service needs to start paying attention to her.

It's not very funny to joke about assassinating government officials.

[AngryOldDem]

13. Exactly

The mere fact that she is even harboring this idea is disturbing enough. But to put it in a speech and pass it off as a joke? Where do you draw the line?

[Scairp]

17. Yes

Isn't it a crime to threaten a Supreme?

[trogdor]

26. Well...

...when she starts telling assassination jokes about Antonin Scalia, maybe they will.

[thinkingwoman]

32. turn her in

seriously, why shouldn't we simply call in with a tip about a possible plot to assassinate a Supreme?

[hyphenate]

38. Between the skanky Mann

and Pat Robertson, the right has the monopoly on idiotic behavior and hatred. Someone should lock Mann and Robertson up in the same room and see if spontaneous combustion is reality or a myth.

[AbbyR]

43. Isn't threatening the justices against the law?

That woman needs to be stopped. I know there is a state law in Arkansas against what's called terroristic threatening - wouldn't that qualify? Someone needs to report it.

[AngryOldDem]

51. Guess it all depends on how you define "terroristic"

This will get a pass from the media and everyone else, just as every other over-the-top comment from the Right has gone without comment. Unfortunately.

Annie didn't mean it! It was all a joke. Really. :sarcasm:

[JerseygirlCT]

66. The gov't can tail peace activists protesting the

war. They can worry about people with anti-Bush stickers showing up at his campaign events.

They can't get concerned about a direct threat to a SC justice?

[jonnyblitz]

18. if a DUer said this, her sister , michelle malkin, would be posting

a link to the DU thread in her blog, gasping in outrage over the loony moonbats at DU. hypocrites.

[punpirate]

3. Stevens is not exactly liberal...

... and from his decisions, he's fairly pro-corporate, like most of the justices on the SC. What rankles Coulter is that he wrote the dissent in the 2000 election decision. For that reason, he gets some of her liberally-applied rancor.

Ann might try putting a sock in it before she gets what she didn't ask for.

[struggle4progress]

55. He's a Republican, Ford appointee.

[Sinistrous]

4. If you or I had said that

the MIBs would be at the door in a heartbeat. But the animated blonde-joke gets a pass.

Sinistrous

[thefloyd]

6. Don't post her shit

she is just trying to change the subject

[ronnykmarshall]

7. I agree

she's a joke. She only has a carrer because she a hateful skag.

[CBHagman]

12. And she'll be forgotten instantly.

John Paul Stevens will be listed in the history books because he is an associate justice. Coulter, after her demise, will not register much of anywhere. No matter what attention she attracts now, she is ultimately one of life's losers, on every level -- personally, professionally, morally, etc.

[0007]

11. I'll second that!

[Yavin4]

9. Yet, The MSM Invites Her on News Shows As A Serious Commentator

while they mock Harry Belafonte's comments in Venezuela.

[Straight Shooter]

10. "That's just a joke, for you in the media." (Yeah, sure, right.)

"As for me and everyone else, I said exactly what I mean."

[hippiegranny]

14. When are they going to drag this piece of filth

away in leg irons? Free speech is one thing - inciting murder is another.

[Gato Moteado]

15. a traditionally black college?

why would african americans want filth like coulter in their presence?

[AbbyR]

44. I was wondering the same thing

when I saw that she was going to be there. If she'd picked UAPB, which is closer to me, I might have taken a day off and gone to heckle her or something.

[EC]

16. a traditionally black college?

Why would SHE be asked to speak at a black college?

[wellst0nev0ter]

59. I Know, Especially After Her Kwanzaa Column

I wish I was making this up:

(Sing to "Jingle Bells")

Kwanzaa bells, dashikis sell

Whitey has to pay;

Burning, shooting, oh what fun

On this made-up holiday!

I'll admit she does have a set of balls speaking in front of a black audience after that (all puns are intended, of course)

[antiblazer]

19. Coulter is a TERRORIST

Since she likes to joke about killing off Supreme Court justices, then she should get a taste of her own medicine. Wiretap her phones and ship her off to Guantanamo.

[moondust]

30. Yes indeed!

This is the stuff of domestic terrorism. Off-the-cuff comments like this suggest she may be involved in the ANTHRAX terrorism as well. Similar style. Good case for the FBI/NSA.

[jobycom]

20. People have been convicted for joking about killing the president

There was guy not long ago convicted for joking about "burning Bushes." Less severe, there was an Austin DJ fired for joking about assassinating Clinton and Gore (Didn't help her that the station is owned by LBJ's widow, who witnessed the last presidential assassination).

Is Stephens less protected because he's a SCOTUS justice or because Coulter is a conservative?

[LiviaOlivia]

31. Here you go

Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Section 115, anyone who "threatens to assault, kidnap, or murder . . . a United States judge . . . with intent to impede, intimidate, or interfere with" that judge's duties is guilty of a felony.

http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/search/display.html?terms=threatening%20judge&url=/uscode/html/uscode18/usc_sec_18_00000115----000-.html

[Catshrink]

35. I was gonna call it treason, but felony works.

That should be the least of things she's charged with. Yuck!!!

[Inland]

21. What a turd. She hates but hides behind the "just joking!" BS

All the cons are the same way. They want to wallow in their hatred, they want people to get a kick out of their hatred, they want to hear "yeah, yeah, yeah!" to their calls for hatred, but then they give the "just joking" disclaimer. Hey, Anne, Goebbels never pussied out like that!

[Kingofalldems]

22. Will Timmy challenge some repub

to denounce her threat? Don't hold your breath.

[JerseygirlCT]

67. It should be demanded of every single Republican

that they spend all sorts of time publicly repudiating her. Or else it should be assumed that they condone or even agree with her, right?

Isn't that the way they work?

[movonne]

23. Where is homeland security when you need them...if that was a

dem saying that someone should poison Alito, would they be arrested for exciting terror...I am so sick of this kind of talk..this country is getting sicker and sicker...

[Zenlitened]

24. It will be a great day for America when she's finally dead.

Seriously.

[Ezlivin]

25. Why doesn't Al Franken or Mike Malloy or Randi Rhodes repeat her

statement, but replace "Justice Steven's" with "Samuel Alito's" and see what happens?

Wanna bet that the Rush Limbaugh's of conservative radio would remain silent over the outrageous remark?

[KamaAina]

27. Why would a historically black college book Coulter in the first place?

Was Carrot Top already engaged?

[maxrandb]

28. I wonder if the Secret Service sees the humor in that??

or are they bought and paid for by the neo-cons too???

[mac56]

29. Ha ha. Only SERIOUS....

nm

[AlCzervik]

33. this is a good indicator at how irrelevant she's become, she made that

crack to get her name into the news, yes i'm sure she probably means it but the pr was the real reason. She is fading into oblivion.

[Initech]

34. What a cold-hearted bitch!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

36. thank god the liberals protect the right to free speech

else she would be in prison for treason etc

[genieroze]

37. Sounds like a threat, not a joke.

[VaYallaDawg]

39. Maybe (s)he thought ... once again ...

she was talking to people stupider than (s)he is??

[HuffleClaw]

40. what a cheap ploy for publicity

this is ALL she has, a mean-spirited schtick. its the ONLY reason anyone pays her the slightest attention. all her columns merely REACT to events with vitriol and insults, following exactly the republican party line. this is the journalistic equivalent of a child on a school playground picking up a dog turd and throwing it a window.

[Octafish]

41. "Evil to him* who evil thinks."

... King Edward the Third, Motto of the order of the Garter.

* Or her.

[LiberalFighter]

42. Contact Email

If anyone wishes to email their thoughts about them having Coulter as a guest speaker it would be best to use both addresses above. Please make sure to keep it clean and civil and respectful.

[Psephos]

45. In the future blogosphere, everyone will be famous for 15 people

Ignore her, and pretty soon she'll be famous for less than 15 people.

Peace.

[KamaAina]

46. If any of us threatened a Supreme Court justice...

we'd get a visit from the Men in Black, who would swiftly haul us off to an undisclosed location for an indefinite period of "interrogation".

But Coulter? IOKIYAR (It's OK If You're A Republican). :puke:

[primavera]

63. My thoughts as well

Hell, these days, the FBI may take her comments under advisement as helpful suggestions.

[bunny planet]

47. me thinks adam's apple Annie is heading into actionable territory.

She can just say any incendiary, violence promoting thing she wants in a public forum and just say 'it's a joke' and that's ok. Isn't she a lawyer? At the very least can't she be disbarred for such behavior?

[RamboLiberal]

48. E&P: College Prez - Coulter's Conservative Answer to Lil' Kim

<snip>

Blacks "are the most loyal group for Democrats and you ought to be getting a little more out of them by giving them competition through the Republicans," Coulter said.

She hailed the nomination of Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court, suggesting that now there might be a fair vote on abortion.

Afterward, black students stood around "lashing" back at Coulter's "rhetoric," the newspaper said. One sophomore girl said: "We need someone on the Democratic side who just as outspoken as she is."

The college president, Walter Kimbrough, had told the audience that inviting Coulter to speak at the black school made sense because like hip hoppers she is "raw, outspoken, uncensored." He also called her the "conservative answer to rapper Lil' Kim -- attractive and sexy, long-haired blondes. ..."

Coulter said it was "the best introduction" she'd ever had.

http://www.editorandpublisher.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1001919956

Kimbrough and Coulter make me want to :puke:

[1620rock]

49. Attractive long-haired sexy blond????

More like a bony bag of she-man in drag. :puke:

[saigon68]

60. A She-man in Drag---- ????

A few She-Males may take exception to her act.

She isn't funny anymore

Just a shrill dried up drunk---- like the CHIMPANZEE

[0rganism]

50. Well done, Ann. In the spirit of such humor, allow me add...

...we need somebody to tie Ann Coulter to a post, clamp her eyelids wide open, and slowly, with as dull a knife as will do the job, extract her internal organs one by one.

HAHAHAHAHA! Isn't that just so funny? :D :D :D I can't stop laughing

:rofl: AHAHAHAHAHA what a witty guy I am.

That's just a joke, for you in the NSA.

[AnneD]

52. You can't joke about a bomb in an airport...

you can't shout fire in a movie theater and I sure as hell don't think you can 'joke' about killing a Supreme Court Justice. Why isn't she under arrest?

[yorkiemommie1]

70. my question too

n/t

[superconnected]

53. Herpes Culture proves again he has no morals, and no class.

I guess I should feel sorry for him because one of the main symptoms of anorexic is self-loathing, but since he's always lashing out at people, I don't. He's just showing us again, what a warty social toad, he is.

[boobooday]

54. Bwahahahahaha

Annie, you trashy hag.

Gettin' harder and harder to get that attention, isn't it?

I suppose you and Robertson are alternating weeks.

[Renew Deal]

56. Why isn't she in prison?

I don't understand how it's legal to say shit like that.

[antonialee839]

57. Why this woman? is given any kind of face time is beyond me.

Suppose some "moran" went ahead and did her bidding, would she go to jail?

61. Someone call the FBI

she threatened a supreme court judge!

[GoldenOldie]

62. I cannot understand why Ann Coulter gets media coverage from anywhere???

It should be obvious to anyone who listen's to her for a few minutes that she has very serious mental problems and I do not say this as a sarcastic comment.

If there is any truth with the bio of a great family life, her fantastic education, and the ability to latch onto the inner sanctum of the DC powerbrokers that could pave her way to success, why would any sane person speak and act as she does.

She tried to pass herself off as a constiutional scholar yet she speaks like a gutter-snipe. When she is hired/invited to debate or speak in university settings or round-tables, she goes off on manical ranting and raving about shooting, killing, poisoning, hanging, blowing people up, etc., etc. She totally loses it yet those around her continue to act like this is a normal and rational act.

Those that support Ann Coulter and those that attack her would never stand and attempt to debate or make fun of a homeless psycho who was mumbling, ranting and threating you on a street corner. Ann Coulter is a very fortunate psycho because she has found a way to become a functional working psycho. She and her family have no need to worry about her becoming homeless, finding and paying for good medical care.
The CON's have found a slot for her to fill and it allows her to travel first class. She is able to obtain her drugs of choice (alcholol &?). She is amply paid for her services.........the millions of families who have mental patient family members should have it so good.

[depakid]

64. And yet she still gets airtime

The fact that this woman hasn't been blackballed by EVERY broadcaster and cable "news" outlet is symptomatic about why this country has devolved into something that I no longer recognize and am deeply ashamed of.

[and-justice-for-all]

65. Read this mAnn Coulter garbage...

ANN COULTER DEFINITELY HAS THE QUALITIES OF THE HIP-HOP GENERATION" -
President Walter Kimbrough "Lil Kim" Intro at Philander Smith College

Raw. Outspoken. Uncensored. Controversial. These words don’t simply describe an HBO documentary, they also are definitive of the hip-hop generation. While the hit, “Rapper’s Delight” was mostly a feel good song, early on in hip-hop the artists began to provide clear imagery of their conditions.

In 1982, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five’s “The Message” spoke to these struggles, and offered the warning, “Don’t push me cause I’m close to the edge, I’m trying not to loose my head.”

As an art form, many rappers began to more explicitly deal with issues and topics that mainstream America was not ready to handle. The rap group NWA, part of the late 1980s gangsta rap movement, released the hit, “F The Police” to express their frustration with the criminal justice system. Rapper Ice T, ironically now an actor playing a cop, released the even more controversial tune, “Cop Killer,” in 1992 with a metal band, incidentally called “Body Count.” The song was fueled by the emotions related to the Rodney King beating and acquittal of the police officers.

Today, hip hop continues to push the bounds of what the mainstream accepts. The gratuitous glorification of violence by 50 Cent, the drug dealing exploits of Pusha T and Malice of the group, The Clipse, the sexual “play” of David Banner, and even the family violence of Eminem suggests that, at least lyrically, hip hop is about saying what you feel, and “forget you” if you don’t like it.

Even Kanye West, cover boy for Time Magazine last August who was described as “the smartest man in pop music” (not just hip hop), will be on the cover of tomorrow’s Rolling Stone Magazine pictured as Jesus, crown of thorns and all, under the title, “The Passion of Kanye West.” He caught America and Mike Myers off guard less than a week after the Time issue hit the stands. Did you see it? It went something like this:

Myers: The landscape of the city has changed dramatically, tragically and perhaps irreversibly. There is now over 25 feet of water where there was once city streets and thriving neighborhoods.

West: I hate the way they portray us in the media. You see a black family, it says, "They're looting." You see a white family, it says, "They're looking for food." And, you know, it's been five days because most of the people are black.

He then shared that now infamous phrase, George Bush doesn’t care about black people.

This was live TV. Raw. Outspoken. Uncensored. Controversial. If Bless the Mic is really going to be a hip-hop president’s lecture series, it has to have these characteristics from time to time. I asked myself, “Who should I bring with those qualities, especially to a historically Black college affiliated with the United Methodist Church?”

Only one came to mind- Ann Coulter.

Ann Coulter, a graduate of Cornell University and the University of Michigan School of Law, is author of four New York Times best selling books, including her latest, How to Talk to a Liberal (if you must). She is the legal correspondent for Human Events and writes a popular syndicated column for Universal Press Syndicate.

She is a frequent guest on many TV shows, including Real Time with Bill Maher, Larry King Live, and Hannity and Colmes, and has been profiled in Time Magazine and Harper’s Bazaar. She was named one of the top 100 Public Intellectuals by federal judge Richard Posner in 2001, and last year ranked as the top woman in the Conservative

71. The "Wisdom" of Ann Coulter

Why am I not surprised that this asswipe is now suggesting the murder of a Supreme Court judge? I hope that this invitation to murder Justice Stevens will further marginalize her. Here are a few of Mann's other witticisms:
