WASHINGTON, Feb. 2 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Citizens for Principled Conservatism (CPC) condemns Ann Coulter's customary hate speech, exemplified most recently by her desire that Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens be poisoned.

To combat such loathsome language, CPC launches its Campus Outreach Program, which debuts with three videos. The just- released first video, "Not Fit to Live," chronicles Coulter's "elimination rhetoric," typified by her recent poisoning fantasy.

Ann Coulter is perhaps the most pro-death anti-abortion activist in American history. Coulter advocates executing children who kill, justifies killing abortionists, defends the massacres of civilians, and promotes torture. Coulter's death desires include:


TARGET..................METHOD......... Elizabeth Dole..........assault weapons John Walker.............burned alive Norman Mineta...........assassination New York Times..........truck bomb Al Gore.................friendly fire Gray Davis..............friendly fire John Edwards............strangling John Kerry..............carpet bombing American Journalists....assassination


The remaining two videos are due for release in the coming weeks. "Coulter Speak" documents Coulter's expressions of enmity and polemical pogroms while "Coulter Does Thomas" uses her 2005 appearance at the University of St. Thomas as the backdrop for her anti-Arab and anti-Semitic histrionics.


All too often, Coulter's hateful words are treated as humor rather than the hate speech it really is. CPC's Campus Outreach Campaign is intended to arm campus youth (and the media) with the truth about Coulter's pugnacious punditry and predatory polemicism. Armed with Coulter's own words, students, faculty and the press can more effectively combat her extremism.


Sadly, despite her rhetorical excesses, Ann Coulter remains a much-lauded conservative icon. Among her accolades:

-- Conservative Leadership Award (2000)

-- Conservative Journalist of the Year (2000)

-- Woman of the Year (2003)

-- Conservative Book Award (2005)

-- No. 1 Conservative Woman (2005)

The Conservative Movement needs to repudiate the extremism in its midst. As more and more people awaken to the reality and the dangers of Coulterism -- as the conscience of the Conservative Movement revives -- thoughtful people of principle and faith will abandon Coulter to her own devices.

1. That bony death-witch sickens me. n/t

[Jaundice James]

2. If the right can...

If the Right can accuse certain Democrats of being from the "Michael Moore wing of the Democratic Party" (as if that were insulting) why can't we define an "Ann Coulter" wing of the Republican Party? -JJ

[SillyGoose]

3. Yay! Finally someone on the right condemns this freak.

:bounce:

[Cleita]

4. It's about time that ethical conservatives

started realizing that she and other whackos aren't really speaking for them but about ideas that no decent person could condone. It's a start.

[sandnsea]

5. The irony

will be when the "principled" conservatives defeat the hate mongers that we can't manage to do. But the corporatism and imperialism will march on.

[ProSense]

8. In that instance,

remind the media that, on principle, the "principled" conservatives are just catching up to Democrats, and then repudiate the media for having no principles, which is not a stretch.

[MODemocrat]

6. I Truly believe that Ann Coulter is just a very very sick person

I take her with a grain of salt; no one in their right mind would ever make statements like this;
If any person on the left would say anything close to what she spews daily, (and gets paid to do) would immediately be hand-cuffed, arrested and thrown into a jail cell. (Just look what the goofballs have done to Cindy Sheehan for wearing a T-shirt) for pity's sake. She has given the ultimate for her country, and they treat her like a criminal!

Myself, it doesn't matter what the long-necked-ugly Ann Coulter has to say about me; her opinion is worthless. :puffpiece: :crazy:

[KingFlorez]

7. She is a miserable ugly person

She needs to go somewhere and sit down

[MurrayDelph]

18. To paraphrase Buzz Lightyear:

She's a strange and sad little man.

[Faygo Kid]

9. Please, please visit the link. It is beautifully done. Powerful. Here.

The music is moving, even haunting. The contrast with Coulter's bile reminds all of us not to lose our essential humanity - a quality she so sorely lacks. I commend this now bookmarked video on the Brad Blog to you. If you view nothing else, view this.

11. I'll add it to the OP. Thanks. n/t

15. Context for the new COULTER VIDEO...

...Is here:

The link from the Press Release points straight to the video. the above links gives the background on the piece.

20. Great. Thanks! n/t

[Faygo Kid]

21. Many thanks, Brad. I am an admirer. Hey DUers, say hello here!

Honored to have you respond to my response. You do great work, and your work will become more important as the corporate media consolidates. I bow to you, Sir. Can you get me a date with Mira Sorvino? If not, I take it all back. Seriously, thanks so much. Your site gives me hope.

[BradBlog]

28. I'll call Sorvino right away!

...You know *all* of us Hollywood folks meet regularly for a our Liberal Elite Monday Night get togethers to plan the destruction of America.

I'll send her your way! :-)

Brad

[Rocknrule]

10. She loves killing so much she's like a female Eric Harris

[movonne]

12. vote this up...

[Katherine Brengle]

13. Nice to see conservatives distancing themselves from Coulter for once

It's usually just the rest of us calling her on her BS.

[Just Me]

14. These are the kind of conservatives WE NEED. We can work with them.

It's the extremists that are dividing this country and destroying this nation.

I know so many conservatives that are disgusted with Bush and those extremist Repukes that have stolen "conservatism" from the honest conservatives.

[NYCGirl]

17. You're right. It's good to know there are a few of them left. NT

[bostonbabs]

16. meth freak Ann

gaunt thinness, eyes darting to and fro, and the pale skin not to mention the out sized ego......classic .....the truth is for suckers....she is the schizoid on the corner....argue with that ?...what a joke.....I have 3 words for Ann: rehab rehab rehab.......we'll find her roaming Mullholand soon....

[karynnj]

19. What I don't understand is why sayinng these things on TV is legal

in the sense that it could be seen as incitement. She is imaginative. She must be tremendously afraid of Kerry if she wants him "carpet bombed" - isn't that a bit excessive.

What I don't understand is how people saying these types of things are given a platform and a degree of respect they haven't earned.

[depakid]

22. It didn't use to be

and even if you got away with it once, you'd be blackballed nd never let back on the air.

Ronald Reagan and his corrupt FCC commissioner Mark Fowler changed all that when they systematically dismantled 50 years of successfuly media regulation.

Clinton also had a hand in it- not only by FAILING to responsibly reregulate- but he actually made the situation exponentially worse though his efforts to promote media (especially radio) consolodation.

[GoldenOldie]

24. Kerry, Murtha, etc., should take out a restraining order on her.

It is obvious that she is a total psycho case (no sarcasm intended).

I know of no one else with her education and advantages, be they Republican or Conservative that talks or rather rants and raves such as she does on killing and torturing others.....it is a mental condition and one that she cannot stop.

How long before her constant rants of death and destruction to all those she views as enemies is carried out?

[ProSense]

26. I find it curious

that Bush, under pressure, would admonish Robertson, but this rabid creature, spewing vile, hateful words is embraced by his party and the media.

[Rocknrule]

37. She has the "right" beliefs

so it's ok. And the people she wants to exterminate (liberals) are considered subhuman in today's America, so that makes it even better.
:mad: as hell

[sweetheart]

23. I'm suprised britain grants her a visa

Given the new vogue against hate speech, they have probably
think that she was joking, but really, her comments are
serious incitement to hatred, threatening and violence.

[Rocknrule]

25. With all the hate she spews

she might as well climb on the roof of a building and scream at the top of her lungs, "I am a NAZI CUNT!!!!! I love Hitler and I wish I could have slept with him!!! Anyone who isn't exactly like me has no right to live! I want to kill blacks, gays, Jews, non-Christians, Mexicans, Asians, and especially filthy liberals!!!! I'M FULL OF HATE AND I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[bucklebone]

30. Plenty of Hate speech to go Around

There is plenty of hate speech to go around in this country. Even after perusing this board for five minutes, I saw Bush being called Bushitler and John Boehner being called Boner and Ann Coulter being called a Bony Witch. Even Julian Bond unleashed pure hatespeech on the right today by comparing the current adminisration to the Nazi's and comparing the supreme court nominees to the Taliban.

Let's face it. This type of speech demeans the speaker more than the target. All of it is disgusting to hear.

[ProSense]

31. Two wrongs... Coulter is evil (not a threat an adjective). n/t

[Solon]

36. Calling people names is juvenile, saying they should be dead is criminal.

Then again, sometimes the truth just has to be said. Let's see, the only quantitive difference between Bush and Hitler is the amount of body bags, at the moment, but then again, Hitler had over a decade to kill, bush only about half that, so give it time.

If you doubt that such a comparison is valid, let's see, Hitler made up a reason to invade Poland, Bush did the same with Iraq. That's two charges from the Nuremburg trials, conspiring for a war of agression, endangering the peace. Next, violating the rights of POWS, both are guilty of that. Secret camps for purposes of torture and death, again the same. I don't see a qualitive difference between the two, only quantative, and the disparity in numbers is decreasing.

[Catrina]

27. Good for them ~ I love that she managed to alter her driver's license and

changed her birthdate from 1961 to 1963. Isn't that a crime? That's according to Wikipedia. She's getting old, in every sense of the word! And dishonest about it as she is about everything else.


And this from Wikipedia is hillarious. Guess she doesn't have many fans:

Current events (fan sites and watch sites)

* Ann Coulter Fan Club on MySpace Discussion of Coulter's books and columns, as well as political debate and dialogue on current events.
* Ann Coulter Fan Club on Yahoo not currently maintained, contains archive. :rofl:
* Ann Coulter articles from Free Republic
* Ann Coulter articles from Media Matters for America
* StopAnnCoulter.com Organization in opposition to Ann Coulter's exploits

[SillyGoose]

29. Thanks to BradBlog for the video. It was very well done. Everyone

should see it. Thank you.

[tsuki]

32. Principle and Conservatism...nah, can't see it.

[Auntie Bush]

33. If a Democrat said those things they would be arrested for terrorism.

[tlsmith1963]

34. About Time They Condemned Her

If more conservatives wake up & tell these hatemongers where to go, I just might stay in the US. It wouldn't make them any less conservative if they did. I guess they are afraid that if they condemn nutjobs like Coulter, people will think they have suddenly gone liberal. Wrong. It just means that you have morals. It has nothing to do with politics.
