On Friday, February 10, the rock star of the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) was none other than Ann Coulter. Before an overflow crowd of at least 1000 young right-wing activists, Coulter took her brand of performance art to new heights. Afterwards, I caught up with Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist to ask him about Coulter's characterization of Muslims as "ragheads." Before I reveal his indignant response, here are a sampling of Coulter's most memorable lines.

Coulter on Muslims:

"I think our motto should be post-9-11, 'raghead talks tough, raghead faces consequences.'" (This declaration prompted a boisterous ovation.)

Coulter on killing Bill Clinton:

(Responding to a question from a Catholic University student about her biggest moral or ethical dilemna) "There was one time I had a shot at Clinton. I thought 'Ann, that's not going to help your career.'"

Gee where are those pundits who were in high dudgeon over the speeches at Coretta King's funeral? I'm sick of this manbitch getting away with this crap!

1. Cokehead talks in public, cokehead makes an idiot of herself (nm)

[central scrutinizer]

5. "herself"?

are you sure you used the right pronoun?

[dchill]

28. "Itself."

[JuniperLea]

33. We should start calling her Hedwig...

He/she acts like she has an angry inch!

Heh! "Yankee go home with me."

[TheModernTerrorist]

54. hey, don't ruin a good movie

I like that movie, thank you, and won't have you comparing Hedwig to "that"

[bostonbabs]

40. meth head freak.....classic.......

sunken cheeks, sallow pale skin color, eyes that never stop darting...outsized ego (as in delusional)....It gives me pleasure to know that Coulture and Limbaugh have to take massive amounts of drugs to do their"jobs"....Scaife has hired these clowns...barkers....delusional drug addicts to spew lies and hatred and division.....they will step in their own shit because they are so drugged out that the can't see it dripping all over them...they believe that the TRUTH is for suckers....they are treasonous

[Coexist]

2. Gee... I remember a time when conservatives were up in arms

over "joking around" about threats of violence.

The phrase "snipers wanted" momentarily appeared on the screen across footage of George W. Bush accepting the nomination as the Republican presidential candidate at the party's Philadelphia convention.

In an August 18 letter to CBS Television President Leslie Moonves, Tristani writes that TV viewers have told her they want the government to take action over the "snipers wanted" stint.

"Perhaps there is no government solution for bad taste or the thoughtless broadcast of misguided humor. However, Americans' patience with gratuitous violence on her airwaves is perilously thin," Tristani writes, according to Daily Variety."

Aaaah yes, those were the days...

[Jack Rabbit]

13. Conservatives might still be up in arms about threats of violence

Right wing morons, on the other hand, have never had a probelm with it.

[raysr]

3. How do they get away

with the death threats?

[Coexist]

4. because its "humor"

you know, Glenn Beck wants someone to kill Michael Moore, Ann Coulter wants to kill Supreme Court Justices' and Bill Clinton... ha ha ha...

[RamboLiberal]

6. If anyone on our side made jokes like this about * or a

conservative member of SCOTUS, the Secret Service would be knocking at their door and they'd be on the No Fly List for sure. Also would have their phones tapped and be on a Terrorist Watch List!

[lindisfarne]

17. Hmmm ... if someone made the same "joke" about Bush 43, they would

get detained at the least, possibly imprisoned (indefinitely) as a terrorist. Seeing as Clinton is protected by the secret service, shouldn't Ann get the same treatment as she would if she threatened Bush 43's life?

[arcane1]

19. I had a shot at Bush 41 once...

but I decided it would hurt my career if I took it



(waits for the black SUV's to drive up)

[mom cat]

37. or off to Guantanamo.

[DBoon]

11. The cartoons in the Danish press were "humor" too

I'm surprised our right wing "pundits" aren't burned in effigy in the Middle East

Perhaps if they were recipients of death threats from people who mean it, they might realize what a death threat is all about.

[havocmom]

SS too busy investigating school kids who turn in homework

some schools find peculiar? No time to talk to people who make $$ doing public speaking where they make threats against former presidents.

[ticapnews]

7. Take out Bubba's name and put Shrub's in its place...

is it still a joke? Agent Mike, can you give us a ruling? Is it kosher to make jokes about killing a former president but not the current one?

[MatrixEscape]

8. Something tells me ...

Since MAnn is on an assassination trip, sHe should get together with Pat Robertson and have rough, gay-man-sex while they both ejaculate political blasphemies and name hit-list candidates as an attempt to "talk dirty" in their own, vile ways.

However, the fallout from the spewed demon seed from such an encounter would be a certain bio-hazard for generations to come.

[xiamiam]

9. they'll be wondering what happened when she actually enacts the

events they support her in describing....and yes they are to be held accountable for enabling a very sick and unstable personality...

[RamboLiberal]

12. Or when one of these wingnut morans do it

I feared for Bill Clinton when he was in the WH with the amount of vile spouted at him everyday. I also feared for Janet Reno for same reason. I was afraid one of the less than stable listeners to one of these hate-mongers would try to carry it out.

I still worry about them.

I still think the hate-mongers are accomplices to Oklahoma City.

[Ecumenist]

25. Me too, Rambo. Me too..nt.

[trof]

10. Frist on Coulter:

"After Coulter's speech, I approached Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist in the CPAC exhibitor's hall. I asked him what he thought of Coulter's characterization 15 minutes earlier of Muslims as "ragheads." HIs reply? "I wasn't there so I better not comment."

Brave Bill

[AngryOldDem]

14. She's dangerous. Period.

First she "joked" about spiking Justice Stevens' drink in order to make more room for conservatives on SCOTUS. Now she makes light of assassinating Bill Clinton.

Just how far does this have to go?


ON EDIT: I also liked the plantation comment. How ironic.

[lindisfarne]

18. I've never followed her writing but it seems that she's getting more

extreme in her comments. Her friends (does she have any) should be concerned about her mental well-being.

[Katherine Brengle]

47. This is nothing new from Ann the Man------

I bought her last book (in the discount bin at least) for "research" purposes and it took me months to get through the whole thing.

She's a bitter, nasty hag with nothing useful to contribute to the world.

This is the woman/thing who referred to "working families" as "families in which no one works"

She's a hack and she's part of the problem.

[karynnj]

45. a post a week or so ago listed all the Democrats

or liberals she wanted to kill by method she recommended - they included strangling John Edwards and carpet bombing (!) John Kerry. It really seems the party should (even just for the publicity) get a protection order to keep her away from all our officials.

[Ediacara]

15. Man oh man.....

How is this woman not in jail?

[la la]

16. knowing what Ann thinks of herself-

in my opinion- her 'shot' at Clinton was a monica-type thing.

What do the rest of you think?

:puke: :puke: :puke:

[robbedvoter]

41. My take too. She's twisted enough to obsess about that.

It may be a "she-man scorned" thingy - like Maureen Dowd.

[against all enemies]

20. She had a shot at Clinton? Bubba wouldn't give that skank the

time of day. Dream on, Ann you're more Jeff Gannon's type.

[mitchum]

21. If anyone deserves prostate cancer, it's Coulter

[lindisfarne]

22. A nurse was accused by the VA of "sedition" for a LTTE critical of

the Bush administration. Surely threatening a former president's life is far more serious??

http://www.commondreams.org/views06/0210-34.htm

But rather than apologize, he leveled the sedition charge: “The Agency is bound by law to investigate and pursue any act which potentially represents sedition,” he said. “In your letter . . . you declared yourself ‘as a VA nurse’ and publicly declared the Government which employs you to have ‘tragically misplaced priorities and criminal negligence’ and advocated, ‘act forcefully to remove a government administration playing games of smoke and mirrors and vicious deceit.’ ”

Berg, who is not talking to the press, is “scared for her job” and “pretty emotionally distressed,” says Peter Simonson, executive director of the ACLU of New Mexico.

<snip>

The ACLU of New Mexico is working in Berg’s behalf. It has filed a Freedom of Information Act request for documents relating to this incident. And it is asking “at the very least” that Berg “receive a pubic apology from Mr. Hooker to remedy the unconstitutional chilling effect on the speech of VA employees that has resulted from these intimidating tactics,” according to a letter from the New Mexico ACLU to the VA’s Office of Regional Counsel.

[AngryOldDem]

26. Well, what about the middle-schooler last week

who wrote the essay fantasizing harm to Bush, Oprah Winfrey, and I don't know who-all else. The Secret Service came down on his ass pretty quick.

So why aren't they giving Annie an equally hard look?

[Generic Other]

23. Is she talking about assassinating him or sleeping with him?

What a skank.

[AnnInLa]

24. same thing

[NoPasaran]

27. Ann has lost her ability to shock me

She's just a demented hag. Wake me when a house lands on her.

[Initech]

29. I'm sick of the right making death threats against those they dont agree

with. :grr: :argh: :nuke:

[LuCifer]

30. I wish someone would take a shot at Ann!

***waiting for the NSA to knock on my door***

Hey Ann, FUCK YOU! Bitch. I honestly cannot think of anything NICER to say in regards to her skank ass.

http://www.cpac.org/agenda.asp

All the neocons on one place. And bet not a peep from the pundits on the hate-mongering by Coulter. And Dems are the party of anger - give me a break!

[yellowdogmi]

36. Time to launch

Operation repuke purge. All of them in one spot. Quick someone yell fire. Maybe we can thin the herd of these scumbags. But I am just joking.:puke:

[zulchzulu]

32. Ann who?

Don't give the ratshit attention. That's all she's after. Her uncle Wally must have stuck a broom up her ass when she was 12 behind the barn.

Let her rot.

[RamboLiberal]

34. Coulter and CPAC should get a KO "Worst Person in the World"

for this. Has KO ever given her one? She should be challenging O' Reilly by now for that honor.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

49. She's gotten it tons of times

Possibly more than O'Lielly.

[proud2BlibKansan]

35. She needs to be arrested for treason

[FreedomAngel82]

38. And she gets away with this crap?

[0007]

39. That's what this woman that has a mouth full smegma does

best! What else can she do?

[1620rock]

44. That bony death-witch he/she freak makes my gorge rise. n/t

[blueblitzkrieg]

42. God shes filthy

says a lot about the right wing that they put this vile woman up on a pedestal

[tlsmith1963]

43. Unbelieveable!

So what Coulter says is okay, but not someone like Lowery at CSK's funeral? They forget--Lowery didn't call on anyone to be killed.

[Katherine Brengle]

46. Ann Coulter is the embodiment of everything that is wrong in the

world...

[Dawgs]

48. Why are unversities paying this women to speak?

WTF!!!

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

50. It's usually not the university......

....but the college's "Young Republicans" group.

To them, it's like getting Jenna Jameson to show up at the frat house and do a porno.

[upi402]

51. SKELETOR SCREECHES IN SUPPORT OF SATANIC FORCES ON EARTH

[Obamarama]

52. She is a festering piece of female anatomy that rhymes with punt. n/t

[Octafish]

53. Some guy's in prison for telling joke about 'burning bush.'

The Fascist manthrax spews threats and hatred at $40,000 an appearance.

What a country.

[Raydawg1234]

55. If this doesn't warrent a visit from the Secret Service, I don't know what

Oh but she was only kidding!! :sarcasm:
