Ann Coulter to student: "Does that mean you want a dictatorship, gay boy?"
Ann Coulter splits IU's crowd
'Ms. Right' draws supporters, protesters
By Adam Aasen | Indiana Daily Student | Friday, February 24, 2006

http://www.idsnews.com/news/story.php?id=34257&adid=news

During her question-and-answer session, Coulter responded to both fans and protesters. One comment that drew strong audience reactions came from a young man who asked her if she didn't like Democrats, wouldn't it just be better to have a dictatorship? Coulter responded with a jab at the way the student talked.

"You don't want the Republicans in power, does that mean you want a dictatorship, gay boy?" she said.

IU College Republicans President Shane Kennedy defended Coulter's comments by stressing that the speech was for entertainment and attendees should have expected Coulter to say controversial comments.

"I think the guy could have been more respectful to her," he said. "I mean, we already know that she was going to be controversial and she was just saying what people were thinking. If you are going to talk like you are gay, then Ann Coulter is going to call you gay. Of course, she said it in a spiteful tone, but it was expected." Union Board, which brought Coulter for the event, wished not to comment on any of the content of her speech. Another student asked Coulter what she was doing better than extremist Democrats, to which she responded, "selling more books."



Both supporters and dectractors of conservative commentator Ann Coulter voice their opinions Thursday evening at the IU Auditorium. For more on the editor’s decision to run this photo, see page 2.

7. Flag high, ranks closed. The Horst Wessel Song. The Nazi anthem.
Flag high, ranks closed,
The S.A. marches with silent solid steps.
Comrades shot by the red front and reaction
march in spirit with us in our ranks.

Sing it, Ann. She, O'Reilly, Limbaugh and Savage will eventually blow up. If they have not already.

(attack the Coulterbeast, that is), the remarkable thing won't be that it's happened. It will be that it took so long.

14. Here's a little more of the context
Notice it's the author of the article who says "the way the student talked." It's possible that there was a little "political theater" going on, hard to tell without a recording....

10. She called Iraqis "little brown boys" & suggested that all "ugly" people
be removed fromt he hall.:( What a female canine. :grr: (Can I say that?)

<snip>

Coulter raised some controversy in her speech when she said that Democrats don't want democracy to succeed in Iraq. She said, "They don't think the little brown boys could handle democracy," to which students responded, "We don't tolerate racism here. Go back to Germany."

Coulter even made comments about the physical appearances of those who were removed.

"Another attractive Democrat," she said as junior Sean Hall, a man wearing a blonde wig, white sheet and a sign that said "Coultergeist" was removed.

"I think we should have saved the ushers some time and just removed all the ugly people," she said.

16. Apparently she hasn't had an encounter with a mirror in some time!
Or she has quite a different definition of the word "Ugly" than Webster & I share, which is:

1. Offensive to the sight; contrary to beauty; being of
disagreeable or loathsome aspect; unsightly; repulsive;
deformed.
<1913 Webster>

The ugly view of his deformed crimes. --Spenser.
<1913 Webster>

Like the toad, ugly and venomous. --Shak.
<1913 Webster>

O, I have passed a miserable night,
So full of ugly sights, of ghastly dreams. --Shak.
<1913 Webster>

2. Ill-natured; crossgrained; quarrelsome; as, an ugly
temper; to feel ugly.
<1913 Webster>

3. Unpleasant; disagreeable; likely to cause trouble or loss;
as, an ugly rumor; an ugly customer.
<1913 Webster>

15. I still say the best way to treat her
is with laughter.

Everybody who goes to one of her lectures should be given a free cylinder of Laughing Gas, inhale deeply when she begins to speak, and laugh her off the stage.

17. I think loud, inappropriate "pirate" laughter is the key as well.
And yell out things like "Oh my ribs- I cant stand it- this is SOOOOO funny!"

in return, drop her drawers to see who had the bigger dick and balls between the two.

29. I think she has a bigger pair than the schoolkid who
asked her the question, but to say so would be politically incorrect, especially in light of the subject controversy.

30. Stick a fork in her
Don't worry about her. Everyone knows she's full of it and the people that do believe what she says deserve whatever will happen to them. After all, the repub college president said that her speech was for entertainment. Which is another way of saying there are no facts. To bad Fox News isn't that open about it!

32. What if Michael Moore had made the same remarks?
Does anyone think the GOP would defend him for saying the same shit that Coulter says if, for example, he were to advocate blowing up the Wall Street Journal or the Moonie Times (in reference to Coulter's August 2002 comment about blowing up the New York Times building?)

34. desperate for some publicity i guess
she is completely incapable of carrying on anything remotely approaching legitimate debate so she HAS to respond with crap like that or she'd be exposed as the parrot she is. her reaction to criticism really shows what a petty spiteful small-minded creature she is too.


"Another attractive Democrat," she said as junior Sean Hall, a man wearing a blonde wig, white sheet and a sign that said "Coultergeist" was removed.
"I think we should have saved the ushers some time and just removed all the ugly people," she said.

"You guys are doing a great job." she said sarcastically later to auditorium ushers. "I guess they did hire Democrats as ushers."
- - -
Coulter made a few comments about both IU and Indiana. She said students at Harvard listen to her comments and ask questions later. One student yelled out, "We're not Harvard," to which she responded, "Yeah, you can't come up with questions."
- - -

i think a real question should be WHO was responsible for bringing her to that university. and who paid for it? i'd be some pissed if i was a student there and found out i had inadvertently paid for it .

"No, it means I think you do. Slut."

Coulter's problem is that she is just fading, fading, fading away. She has to keep resorting to ever more extreme behavior in a desperate attempt to stay in the public eye.

The party's over, Ann. Time to pull up your knickers and stumble on home.

40. The key to Coulter is her age: 44.
The guy should have responded something link: You wish, you 44-year-old transexual man. (Not that there is anything wrong with that.) Since Coulter would be nothing without her sex appeal, it is time to point out the obvious: her sex appeal is getting up and going.
