(M)Ann Coulter on New York: "the residents would immediately surrender"
http://www.crooksandliars.com/2005/08/25.html#a4633



Ann Coulter repeats her "New Yorkers are Cowards"

On H&C tonight, Alan Colmes asked Coulter to explain a statement in http://www.townhall.com/columnists/anncoulter/ac20050810.shtml">her recent column calling NY'ers cowards:

"and it's far preferable to fight them in the streets of Baghdad than in the streets of New York (where the residents would immediately surrender)"

http://movies.crooksandliars.com/Hannity-Colmes-Coulter-bashes-NY.wmv">Windows Media Clip

Colmes: You don't feel that New Yorkers are cowards?

(pause)

Coulter: ahhh...I think they would immediately surrender...

Calling people who suffered cowards is reprehensible. She should speak to a fireman or policeman about it sometime.

1. Desperately trying to keep the red state Bushites apart from America
that thinks for itself.

2. Okay, MANN, if they're such cowards, why don't you go on a nice
little walk down Fifth Avenue, calling everyone you see a coward?

No?

Not going to do it?

But why?

You think New Yorkers are so weak and scared, well, little ol' you should be able to take them on.

I'd pay to see that.

11. She ran when they threw oranges at her, too...
The "Annie Attacks" always stir a debate when they happen, but if I were setting a moral compass for my OWN life, I'd think "Go out and spread hate speech, expect SOMEONE to throw SOMETHING at you eventually."

It's kind of like walking down the street with a pork chop taped to your ass. Sooner or later a dog will bite that chop. You don;t want to get bitten? Don't tape anything to your ass.

Sorry...I start to "go Zen" as midnight approaches...

6. not a good idea... someone will go nuts if she visits NYC
I'd never endorse such a thing, but someone else is going to get pissed off and do something stupid and immoral that I would never endorse and strongly condemn and insist upon lengthy prison sentences on the offender for doing or threatening to do. Literally even.

This is not a veiled endorsement or reverse psychology. It's just a bad idea to air crap like that on national TV and the consequence is someone nutcase will get pissed off and go after her, like the nutcases that went after the supposed "terrorists" in that house shown on Fox News.

It's like yelling "Fire!" in a crowded theater. Julius Streicher -like charges and orderly prosecution are the proper response to Coulter, not nutcases/etc. doing immoral acts of violence.

10. New York has lots of nuts yelling on streetcorners.
We ignore them.

We also have hookers giving blowjobs to jerks to make a living.

We ignore them, too.

Ann's making a living. What else could she be? A secretary?

Mayor Bloomberg at any moment? And then march down to Washington with their improvised explosive devices and throw Cheney out of his secure location and rule the U.S.of A.?

8. Okay, THAT'S IT
Good GOD. One minute they're exploiting 9/11, the next their abusing New Yorkers.

Did anyone see New York surrender after 9/11? I didn't see anyone surrendering. Would YOU have liked to have dealt with what those people dealt with around ground zero. Those people are tough.

I'd like to see her in the middle of that crisis.

Okay, I know she only say these things to get a rise out of people, BUT GOD HELP ME IT'S WORKING!

18. Not only did NYC deal with 911, within a month
a line in TICK TICK BOOM, which talked about times so mediocre George Bush is President (written when GHWB was) got one of the at first nervous but then loudest laughs I ever heard - and the theatre was within 10 blocks of where the WTC was. People returned to their sanity and regined their perspective on the world that fast.

9. I have NEVER understood why anyone listens to that vicious, lying fool.
Edited on Fri Aug-26-05 02:14 AM by Nothing Without Hope
The fact that Time Magazine put her on its cover shows part of the answer, I think. Like Rush Liimbaugh, Coulter is useful to the people who support the Bush regime. She generates the hate and spews out disinformation that keeps their base from asking the real questions. Like the people who keep listening to Limbaugh, there are those who are pleased by her spewings - I suppose it makes them feel important, like they're on a winning team. Wouldn't it be pleasant not to believe in global warming or any of the other ugly truths that we have to contend with? Wouldn't you like to be able to feel that your country is in good hands, is winning in just conflicts, is respected and loved by honest people all over the world, and is led by an caring, strong, saintly President? For people working in dead-end jobs in a place that is not "cutting edge," there is a secret jealousy that is gratified by put-downs of more "sophisticated" places like New York City. Coulter is deliberately tapping into these fears, hates and jealousies. Limbaugh does the same. So do a lot of others. The sheer depraved cynicism of it is sickening but shrewdy calculated.

Reality isn't so pleasant these days, and there are a lot of people who'd rather believe the Coulters and the Limbaughs. In the absence of widely watched news media that report the truth, they can continue to get away with their constant lies.

13. I triple dog dare her to repeat that...
while standing on a street corner in downtown Manhattan. I doubt any New Yorkers would 'immediately surrender'. We'd get the answer to the question colmes asked, and we'd get coulter in the River 'sleeping with the fishes'. Two with one stone.

19. Hey Coltturd, here's a little clue for you . . . the biggest heroes of
9/11, you know the brave folks at FDNY, NYPD and the Port Authority . . . the vast majority of them are New York residents.

Those folks who were going IN to the World Trade Center while everyone else was trying to get out so they could help others while sacrificing their own lives? They were New Yorkers.

Don't talk to New Yorkers about cowardice you lying little wench.

21. Dangerous Clowns
Edited on Fri Aug-26-05 05:44 AM by Q
His blood carries not honor, and honesty, rather criminality, fraud, hypocrisy, lies, the lust for defilement, and the lust for murder ... a race that has drives toward the unnatural and toward criminality cannot recognize natural moral laws. -- Julius Streicher, on the Jews

... the Democrats – far too many of them – are evil, pure and simple. They have no redeeming social value. They are outright traitors themselves, or apologists for treasonous behavior. They are enemies of the American people and the American way of life. -- Joseph Farah, "Baghdad Bonior," Worldnet Daily 10/8/02

Liberalism is a mental disorder that has undermined our families, our society, and our national security … -- Michael Savage, Newsmax.com interview 2/1/03

----

The tribunal at Nuremberg in 1945 agreed. Part of the indictment against Streicher read:

In the early days he was preaching persecution. As persecution took place he preached extermination and annihilation and, as millions of Jews were exterminated and annihilated, in the Ghettoes of the East, he cried out for more and more.

The crime of Streicher is that he made these crimes possible, which they never would have been had it not been for him and for those like him.

I remember that speech she gave where they were all booing in the background. Hell,I can't even remember what their problem was,she sure as HELL didn't call them cowards.

So...this begs the question of how THEY'LL stand up to this attack from a flaming RW'er who BLATANTLY called them cowards. Bet they don't do a DAMN thing....

33. So Ann Coulter has now attacked
The NYFD and NYPD or does she think those who risked and hundreds of whom lost their lives that day were from somewhere else?

She is funded by Richard Melon Scaiffe.

I wouldn't bother emailing her. She thrives on her insanity. But those who put her on the air, allowing her to thrash the brave men and women of NYC who were there that day, should hear from tens of thousands of NYers.

The only communication I would have with her is to send her recruitment forms. Why isn't she in Iraq, speaking of cowards???

32. The real cowards are in the middle of nowhere
who were willing to give up all of their freedoms because they were scared. Those were the people paying attention to Tom Ridge's color codes. Those were the people duct taping their windows in fear of a chemical attack. I watched that 9/11 special the other night with those firefighters running up the stairs into almost certain death. Tell her to tell one of the widows of those firemen that her husband was a coward. That goes for any of those stupid hicks who listen to her and agree.

PS I still hate the Yankees.

pie thrown by a couple of college-age pranksters.

In heels.

*Real* fast.

And then was apparently too distraught to continue.

But okay, Ann: why don't you prove how brave you are, by oh, say...mmm, not going to Iraq, obviously...howzabout snorting up the rest of that eightball in your desk drawer, in one go. Really, it'll do you good. Promotes weight loss (you need it).
