Coulter says all presidential assassins were liberals

Published on November 6th, 2009

What gets me the most here, is not Coulter’s ham fisted attempt to link communists, liberals and murderers, its the little laugh they both have, as if it’s difficult to keep a straight face during this ridiculous fraud of a conversation. If this is typical of the political discourse happening in the US, there is no hope.

“If this is typical of the political discourse happening in the US, there is no hope.” /// Well, you are close. This is typical of right wing talk radio and tv. That’s about 20% of the USA and about 90% of the political right in the USA.

So crazy–its not even really “political” speech in any sane context. I blame religion and the lack of education and thinking skills it inspires.

If every person who ever said “if _____ then there’s no hope” gave me a dollar, I would be a trillionaire of which there are none currently. I would then take the interest from that money and unlike what Bill Gates would do, create a foundation to vaccinate against losing his money to taxes, I would wipe out world debt for the simple reason as so I wouldn’t have to listen to any more people whine about there being “no hope” so they could instantly move on and have some which was actually there all the time but none-the-less I would take credit for providing it.

I watched this and sometimes Coulter is right on target and others she is just plain extremists. One reason if you are a moderate conservative you cannot be Republican. Would not surprise me to see a Independent become more popular in the next election. The Right are going too far right and the Left is doing the same. Much to the dismay of many of us who are in the middle. Main reason government is doing so poorly. No compromise!

Well she’s a pundit and a hack in a short skirt. I think its her speel and appeal. Would anyone pay attention to her otherwise? She’s not serious enough to go on McLauglin Group, so…

# 5 Rufus said, on November 6th, 2009 at 5:23 am

Two brainless potty mouths, not just one.

But to be fair 98% of liberals are never as open-minded as they claim.

Liberals and conservatives are equally racist and stupid… by design.

# 6 Olo Baggins of Bywater said, on November 6th, 2009 at 5:24 am

In the “who’s further right” contest, the idiot Coulter appears to be a leader.

# 7 srgothard said, on November 6th, 2009 at 5:30 am

Ann Coulter is a better at writing than interviewing because interviewers seldom let her finish her points. George Bush was hated by so many people that I agree with her that Obama is probably not getting more threats that Bush was.

Similarly, she never says that being liberal makes you an assassin. She is stating that all presidential assassins were liberals (as Dvorak pointed out in the title). If that is true, why are we mad at her? If it is not, then the interviewer should attempt to show otherwise. The truth is the truth. People who are telling the truth should not be hated and judged. People who are afraid of the truth should be.

Well, by definition liberal means wanting change and conservative means keeping things the same. So, again by definition, only liberals would assassinate the current president thereby causing a change in the presidency.

Pretty straightforward.

# 9 Civengine said, on November 6th, 2009 at 5:42 am

Actually, thinking on it, she may be right, er correct, from the standpoint that in their day, society generally associated these assassins with an agenda of radical change to the status quo. What really binds them is that most were just plain nuts. Garfield was killed by a Republican, btw.

Yeah, all the assissins have been totalitarian/communists/socialists, ie pigs. look at bobbutt, he can’t stand the idea of someone else using critical thinking skill to look at history and then apply it to today and what’s happening to us now.

Look at Kennedy’s assassin, he came back fron the Soviet’s. When you look at Red Russian history, assassination was normal everyday tool that Stalin used, Mao used it. Godless leftists have no second thoughts as killing a few of us proletariat. Look at their double speak and PC Newspeak. Doublethink, let’s see, there are no death panels, just committees which decide when to cut any further health care spending for a patient and instead let them die. No that’s not a death panel, just a budget panel – a real difference.

Whatever…………………………………

The problem srgothard is that its a logical fallacy meant to slander liberals.

All serial killers are humans…

Bobbo I was thinking the same thing =)

Actually I think you could call Booth a conservative. It depends if you see him as protecting the status quo of slavery, or the “revolutionary” Confederacy.

This is the danger of labels. Its really only useful if you want to manipulate people. The truth is never that simple.

# 12 tcc3 said, on November 6th, 2009 at 5:59 am

And how is trying to impress Jodie Foster a liberal idea? What he wasn’t successful, so it doesn’t count?

# 13 bobbo, the evangelical anti-theist said, on November 6th, 2009 at 6:01 am

#10–traxxxx==YOU LIE!!!!!

One can could only hope for an express above board reviewable death panel but the republican backers of “Kill the Sick” legislation currently being considered have filed their secret agenda under “Increased Competition Solutions” and Malpractice Reform.

We all know how many millions get killed when any kind of reform of the status quo gets passed.

Whosomehowever.

# 14 bobbo, the evangelical anti-theist said, on November 6th, 2009 at 6:02 am

#12–tcc==I thought of Hinkly. He was trying to impress a liberal hollywood actress. Thats got liberal all over it.

Try again.

# 16 honeyman said, on November 6th, 2009 at 6:13 am

Guiteau wasnt a liberal, was he? Either was Czolgosz afaik.

# 17 bobbo, the evangelical anti-theist said, on November 6th, 2009 at 6:25 am

All I remember about Guiteau is that he was part of a free love society for a while. LIBERAL!! Don’t know Czolgosz and besides it doesn’t matter when one argues “by definition.”

Liberals==wanting change. Assassination==change for sure.
Therefore, all Assassins are Liberals. The logic is infallible. NOW we can cue Alfie. HEY ALFIIEEEEE!!! BTW, cute the way LL tries to shift the cult of stupidity over to Alfie. If I were Alfie, I’d be insulted.

>> If this is typical of the political discourse happening in the US, there is no hope.

It’s typical _CONSERVATIVE_ discourse.

Yes, we liberals have nutcases on the wings of our movement but STUPID PARANOID CRAZIES are the conservative BASE.

The politically tone-deaf claim, “Dems. GOPs… they’re all the same” — but they are not.

# 20 honeyman said, on November 6th, 2009 at 6:36 am

#17 Bobbo

Czolgosz was apparently a Republican and wannabe Anarchist (go figure). Not really liberal credentials.

I also think it a bit glib to say liberal = change. By that definition, Ghengis Kahn and Robert Mugabe are liberals!

# 21 jobs said, on November 6th, 2009 at 7:06 am

Look no further then #18 for proof of Coulters theory.

# 22 bobbo, the evangelical anti-theist said, on November 6th, 2009 at 7:08 am

#20–honeyman==so you are saying that by definition to argue by definition is glib, and therefore my arguing by definition that liberal = change is glib?

by golly, I think you’ve got it.

All thats left then is to argue about definitions. Not a totally wasteful way to pass time, depending on how you define waste?

But anarchists==yes, I guess they would kill to stop things from changing and that opens the door to just what power to change a president has. America has never been big on anarchists. Silly group, too close to LIEBERTARIANS and other such silly isolationists.

I like Ann by the way until she gets off onto religion: “there is no proof for evolution.” I heard her say that once.

# 23 freddybobs68k said, on November 6th, 2009 at 7:29 am

Anns purpose is to make wild comments as a method to sell her books. In doing so all she has added to the world is fuel for hate and divisiveness.

Personally I don’t think that is likable, desirable or helpful.

You could argue it’s ‘entertainment’ or even ‘comedy’. And it is amusing at a level – the same level as a bigoted joke.

So this is just business as usual.

# 24 Mr. Fusion said, on November 6th, 2009 at 7:37 am

Anyone who has ever watched Joy Behar before knows she was restraining herself during this interview. I believe she would have loved to throttle that scrawny giraffe neck into a pretzel as a favor to all those Coulter has slandered in the past.

its the little laugh they both have

Behar was laughing at Coulter. Coulter was laughing because of the vibrator up his butt.

Ann Coulter is a sick f*ck. But the more people associate her with the Republican party, the better.

# 27 Loupe Garou said, on November 6th, 2009 at 9:54 am

#9 “Garfield was killed by a Republican, btw.”

Why would a Republican kill a cat?

#27, The same reason a democrat would — they refuse to do what you tell them to do.

Why does this woman get any air time?
She needs to be ignored and sidelined.
I find her an insulting exhibitionist.
What is it about her that fascinates
intelegent people ?

# 30 The Monster's Lawyer said, on November 6th, 2009 at 11:41 am

I wouldn’t f*ck her with your dick.

# 31 Beonarri said, on November 6th, 2009 at 11:59 am

I think Ann Coulter was a man. It would explain a lot about of the nasty BS she spew.

# 32 Glass Half Full said, on November 6th, 2009 at 12:48 pm

Good god that woman is stupid.

Or if she’s honestly not stupid, just the most awfully cynical bold face lying person I’ve known of in adult life. I GET IT that she wants her favorite political party to win. Everyone invested in both ’sides’ plays dirty tricks, but she’s just out of her tiny mind.

# 33 gal416 said, on November 6th, 2009 at 1:05 pm

I guess it is true that conservatives never did anything.

# 34 Mr. Fusion said, on November 6th, 2009 at 1:46 pm

#30, TML,

Thank you. Same here.

# 35 Floyd said, on November 6th, 2009 at 2:38 pm

One classic instance of a conservative assassin: John Wilkes Booth, killing Lincoln because, (quoting Wikipedia) he was “a Confederate sympathizer vehement in his denunciation of the Lincoln Administration and outraged by the South’s defeat in the American Civil War.” That’s about as mad dog conservative as they get.

Coulter (whether he or she) should STFU.

# 36 deowll said, on November 6th, 2009 at 7:56 pm

I doubt that Booth was a progressive.

What all of these people seem to have in common was rage. What they were angry about seems to vary a great deal.

What they all lacked was respect for human life. While some Progressives, based on their stated views, do suffer from this problem so do some moderates and conservatives.

Take care and God bless.

# 37 Tom McMahon said, on November 8th, 2009 at 7:27 am

Do all Liberals spew this sort of hate, or is it just Liberal bloggers, commenters, and assassins?

# 38 GlowingApple said, on November 8th, 2009 at 9:21 am

#37, I agree, seems that most people here are more fond of attacking Coulter personally rather than addressing the actual debate.

As the saying goes, “Strong minds talk about ideas; weak minds talk about people.” If you disagree with her views, debate THEM. A few of you got this right and made some very good points, but calling her a man and attacking her personally only shows you have no real argument.

# 39 jay said, on November 9th, 2009 at 10:06 am

this lady should never have an outlet to her bullshit.

# 40 Heh Shimona said, on December 15th, 2009 at 9:01 pm

Ann Coulter, Robin Williams and Dana Carvey. Three men whose given names sound surprisingly feminine. All three are great comedians.
