    yeah, right.

    And one of his "lies" (Lie: You didn’t Build That! | Barack Obama Lies) is really the republicans lying about what he really said in his speech. The Kimmie Kandy video even has Obama's voice-over cut together to purposefully lie about what he said.

    Nice list of lies, just that they aren't all Obama's, are they???

    The Republican party is committing political suicide with it's stance on resisting the Bush tax on those earning over $250K to expire- and Ann Coulter knows it. On Hannity:-

    "OK fine, let's do that, but in the end, at some point, if the Bush tax cuts are repealed and everyone's taxes go up, I promise you Republicans will get blamed for it," she said. "It doesn't mean you cave on everything, but there are some things Republicans do that feed into what the media is telling America about Republicans."

    "So are you saying that, for PR purposes, that they should give in to Obama on the tax rate?" Hannity asked.

    "Not exactly, I--" Coulter said, before stopping herself and saying, "Well, yeah, I guess I am."


    "You're saying capitulate to Obama?" Hannity stammered. "We don't have a revenue problem, Ann."

    "We lost the election, Sean!" Coulter replied.

    A rare bit of common sense.

    What all of the these republican brains are forgetting is that the "Bush Tax Cuts" were passed with a sunset clause because the CBO showed that they would cause the budget deficit to explode and it is the sunset clause which was repealed. This was without any consideration of the worse economic crisis in 100 years factored into the equation. Well, the tax cuts did explode the budget and are still exploding the budget.

    To now talk about "repealing the tax cuts" is dishonest at best, ignorant if that is what is actually believed, and an outright lie in the most likely case.

    Miss Ann has a new column out: LIBERALS: IF THE SHOE DOESN'T FIT, MAKE EVERYONE WEAR IT that makes absolute objective sense on many points. In the following paragraph she talks about the bleeding-hearts who want more laws enacted against the police:

    "Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson's shooting of Michael Brown is today being used as grounds to demand all sorts of new rules for cops. Most people had a pretty good sense of the case after seeing surveillance camera shots of Brown assaulting the manager of a liquor store he was robbing about 10 minutes before his encounter with Officer Wilson. By the time the grand jury documents were released, there was no serious doubt that the shooting was justified."

    Not excusing the fat thug, but by the time the grand jury documents were released, it had been made public that the police shooter had no idea the goon was linked to that crime.

    Doesn't matter. The fat thug charged the cop and said cop was afierd for his life.

    I rather think this quote is more telling of her intellectual impoverishment than otherwise. So flawed in so many ways. Still, I quite like these septic "intellectuals" since they serve a useful purpose in reminding me of how intelligent I am.
    Essentially, if one is a "leftie" then one is wrong is her credo. Quite bizarre really but so American. No wonder everyone shouts at each other there.

    ^ Ann Coulter is no intellectual and identifying her as one calls into question your own intelligence.

    You do have a way with the language genticles. Point noted. The truth is however that she is part of the anti-intellectual movement that is growing among the conservatives in America.

    Nothing new under the sun.

    Folk like to reduce things to a level reinforcing their prejudices and conceits.

    She is a pundit providing fodder for her constituency and as long as it resonates she will keep on churning out her rhetoric in lieu of anything more intellectually rigorous.

    Someone will always lap it up.

    True- but she lost her right wing 'mojo' a while back- even before Glenn Beck was sacked, and Andrew Breitbart passed away. Dunno who the flavor of the moment is for the Teabaggers now. Ted Nugent?

    Ann Coulter is back, more fearless than ever. In Adios, America she touches the third rail in American politics, attacking the immigration issue head-on and flying in the face of La Raza, the Democrats, a media determined to cover up immigrants' crimes, churches that get paid by the government for their "charity," and greedy Republican businessmen and campaign consultants—all of whom are profiting handsomely from mass immigration that's tearing the country apart. Applying her trademark biting humor to the disaster that is U.S. immigration policy, Coulter proves that immigration is the most important issue facing America today."

    Coulter: Trump ‘Speaking for Working Class,’ ‘For African-Americans’

    You know in your heart, she's right.

    Columnist and author of “Adios, America” Ann Coulter argued that despite warnings about ISIS “Americans were killed by immigrants” and that Donald Trump is “the one who was speaking for working class Americans, for African-Americans” on Monday’s “Hannity” on the Fox News Channel.

    Coulter said, “I notice we’ve been warned all week watch out for ISIS, watch out for ISIS this weekend, and no, instead Americans were killed by immigrants. This wasn’t the only illegal immigrant, and it doesn’t have to be limited to illegal immigrants, the government is allowing people who have no right to be here into our country, whether legally or illegally. There was also an illegal immigrant who hammered his wife to death in Texas over the weekend, you know, that was an illegal alien wife who was killed. So, it isn’t just american citizens who aren’t being protected, but these republicans and, of course, democrats who claim to speak for oh the poor, the downtrodden, the working class. No, they’re speaking for big business who want their cheap labor and they’ll externalize their costs, both in terms of taxes and in terms of the crime rate.” And “You hear Republicans saying, ‘well’ — and Democrats, ‘Well, of course, no one wants felons in this country.’ Well, what are they doing to stop it? Chris Christie was on Fox News this weekend saying, you know, telling us once again that fences just don’t work, the human spirit will overcome them. It’s like saying buckets don’t work. Of course fences work. Americans aren’t stupid. Why doesn’t Chris Christie say that to Israel or China? Because their fences work just fine.”

    She added, “the media are always hiding that these are immigrants, sometimes illegal, sometimes not illegal, who are committing a lot of these heinous crimes. It’s always ‘North Carolina Man Indicted on Child Rape.’ So, frankly, we don’t know after this weekend exactly how many Americans were killed by immigrants in drunk driving accidents, in heinous murders like this one in San Francisco. It’ll take a few weeks, maybe a year to wait for the court transcripts for the media to even tell us the truth. The government won’t tell us the truth. The media won’t tell us the truth. But, the people in America know what the truth is. Unfortunately, the Chamber of Commerce and the Wall Street Journal don’t. And most of these Republicans are busy sucking up to the rich and don’t care about the workers. You know, I am sick of this nonsense about Donald Trump being the racist here. He’s the one who was speaking for working class Americans, for African-Americans. How about — have you seen the black teenaged unemployment rate? Why shouldn’t they be getting those jobs? It’s Donald Trump who is speaking up for them. And boy, don’t think Republican voters aren’t keeping a list of who’s naughty and nice on denouncing or praising Donald Trump right now.”

    Coulter also talked about the 2016 presidential race, stating that “Now I have a new soft spot in my heart for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)96%
    . We always knew he was smart. He’s been bad on legal immigration, in the past he wanted to triple what even Rubio wanted. But, he seems to have burned that bridge. So, I think he’s going to be pulling ahead in people’s estimation. But, Jeb Bush, he said illegal immigration was an act of love. Is he saying every act of immigration was an act of love with this guy who murdered that beautiful woman in San Francisco, was that an act of love of Jeb?” She added that Rick Perry “was the pioneer of the argument that fences don’t work, buckets and wheels don’t work. It’s — the craziest argument I’ve ever heard. Have they heard of East Germany and the Soviet Union? They wanted to keep people in, we want to keep people out. Fences work just fine.”

    She later argued, “it’s going to be very easy for someone like a Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)96%
    or maybe Scott Walker. … Because this is a big opening. It’s the same opening Ronald Reagan had when the Republican Party was officially for the Equal Rights Amendment, much of the Republican Party was for gun control, much of the Republican Party was for abortion. They are standing with the elites and the Wall Street crowd. You get one Republican to come along and speak straight about what the people want to hear, and the media is always surprised, ‘Oh, he’s doing so well.’ There’s a reason Trump is doing well, and I mean, at this point, we just want a Republican who can do math and figure out unless immigrants are voting 51% for Republicans, you’re losing Republicans and post-1970 immigrant,s legal immigrants are voting 8-2 for the Democrats. So, this is a suicidal strategy. And I think some of the smarter Republicans will wake up and clean up in the primaries.”

    Coulter concluded, “It’s interesting, a lot of these Republicans talk tough when they need our vote, like Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)80%
    did running against amnesty, but then got to Washington and spent three years pushing amnesty the Republican Party, their base are working class white males and their wives. That’s when Republicans clean up. That’s when — the two landslide presidential elections Republicans have won in the last century, Nixon and Reagan, that was appealing directly to that base, and that is exactly what Donald Trump is doing. He’s enormously popular with the working class. He’s quite popular with black people who want those jobs.”

    What a lovely couple they'd make. Sort of like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde.

    Hopefully with the same outcome.

    COULTER: TRUMP’S CANDIDACY ‘DIVIDES THE ELITES FROM THE PEOPLE’ MORE THAN ANYTHING I’VE SEEN

    Yes. The Chattering Classes do seem to be a bit 'worried' as it were...that's good

    "Columnist and author of “Adios, America,” Ann Coulter stated of Donald Trump’s candidacy, “I’ve never seen an issue that divides the elites from the people so much” on Friday’s “Lou Dobbs Tonight” on the Fox Business Network.

    Coulter said, “Well, for one thing I understand the FBI was following this family, we know they were following the Tsarnaev brothers, the Boston bombers. So, I’m thinking a better idea, instead of taxpayers supporting the FBI to follow all these people we’re bringing in, and putting in American neighborhoods in the country. Why don’t we just not bring them in so we don’t have to pay the FBI to follow them? I mean, these are all legal immigrants.”

    She added, “you would think this would have occurred to Republicans a little sooner, looking at it from a purely partisan perspective. The post-1970 immigrants, the ones brought in by Teddy Kennedy’s 1965 Immigration Act, not only are far poorer than native-born Americans, and much more likely to access government services, but they’re voting 8 to 2 for the Democrats. If they were voting 8 to 2 for the Republicans, I promise you, Chuck Schumer would on the border with the Minutemen.” And “Obama would not have been elected at all, but for the post-1970 immigrants. So, what is going on with these Republicans, Lou? I mean, for their own political survival, is their position the same as the Chamber of Commerce? ‘Oh well, screw the country. I only have a few more years in politics anyway?’ Or ‘I’ll make my pile, and so much for America?’ It seems to be.”

    The discussion then turned to the candidacy of Donald Trump, Coulter was asked if she likes what Trump is doing. She responded, “Yes, I do. Well, he asked for, and received an advance copy of my book, and I think that’s where all his spicy stuff about Hispanic rape is coming. Because, as you just mentioned, the 1965 act changed the immigrants we’re bringing in legally dramatically from the immigrants who had come in until that time. And we’re mostly bringing in peasant cultures. Very, very — the poorest of the poor, from cultures as different from ours as imaginable, which is bringing all kinds of surprising behaviors on the country. Honor killings, gang rape, incest rape, and I cover a lot in the book. So, even if you like the idea of living in a place like California — I mean, besides the beautiful beaches out here — that is one-party state, and America too is going to be a one-party state. Even if you want total hegemonic control of politics by the Democrats, the country is changing in other ways, where these cultures are changing us. We are not changing them.”

    Coulter concluded, “Well, I am shocked that no Republican is picking up on this. I mean, we have been promised over and over again a wall, secure the border, I’m totally against amnesty, whether it’s from a Bush or a Rubio, a Rick Perry, and then we have been double-crossed over and over again. And I have been a little surprised, I’ve been doing a lot of book events out here, how crowd after crowd, and, you know, drivers I have, makeup artists, 100% behind Trump. I’ve never seen an issue that divides the elites from the people so much. You would think Republicans would notice this. But, you know, I mean, I’d like to like him, Scott Walker gave his announcement speech this week, 40 minutes, not one word about immigration. With Trump, number one in the polls, frankly I hope he is serious. And usually what happens to these candidates, who are not already governors, is you know, they think ‘Screw it. This is no fun running for president. I won’t.’ I hope he keeps running.”
