Democrats, President Obama and the media were the targets of Ann Coulter’s jokes.
Democrats, President Obama and the media were the targets of Ann Coulter’s jokes.

(CNN) - Conservative political commentator Ann Coulter’s 15-minute address at CPAC played more like a stand-up comedy act than a political speech.

Coulter delivered line after line of jabs at President Obama, the Democratic Party and the media – each met with roaring laughter from the crowd.

The commentator – who is no stranger to controversy – first went after MSNBC, calling the hosts the “alternative prom crowd.”

Pointing to recent comparisons of Obama to Jesus and Abraham Lincoln, Coulter said the media has turned from being the people’s watchdog to the “government guard dog.”

“Maybe it’s just me, but I can’t see Lincoln text messaging with Scarlet Johansson … and I forget, how many times did Lincoln vote present?” she said, to much applause.

Coulter likened members of the media and Democrats to parents “gushing” over a newborn baby.

“Having pulled off their rather mediocre 53 percent to 46 percent victory, liberals can’t stop boasting about their new baby boy,” she said.

She said it was interesting that Obama’s “adorers” in the media compare him to Lincoln and Ronald Reagan, because, “apparently they can’t think of a Democratic president worthy of being compared to.”

“If [Obama] thinks people wanted change in 2009, wait until 2012,” she said.

Coulter has a long history of making controversial comments about politicians. Following her appearance at the 2007 CPAC, multiple companies asked to pull their ads from her Web site after she used what some observers called an anti-gay slur to describe then-Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards.

She was also at odds with Sen. John McCain during the campaign season, saying "John McCain is not only bad for Republicanism, which he definitely is - he is bad for the country."

Republicans are angry about losing – not just about losing the election, but also losing the hearts and minds of the bulk of Americans, so they just scream from the top of lungs, hoping someone will hear them. Many are turned off by them. Focus your energy on helping Obama achieve his mission, which I think is constructive for Americans. You just have to let whatever Republicans say from one ear to the other ear, don't engage them. It's not because we are afraid of them, but rather we don't want to waste energy w/ them. Until they become constructive and have something to add toward solving the national problem, otherwise just ignore them. They just rant or rave, and it does taint the spirit of cooperation, working together inspired by President Barack Obama.

As God said, the problem we have is due to we think we are separate from one another. Republicans cry – why should we help you, because they think we are separate, because if We are One, we wouldn't even ask that question – because helping you means helping me, because We are One. So, Democrats are on the right path, and the Republicans have lost their way. Democrats win because they have the right message this time around. Our soul long to come together and become One w/ God. I know it's not easy, because we are all different and have different ideas on how to proceed, but we can disagree w/o name calling. I think Obama's strategy is correct, as to the correct ratio, that's up the economists to debate.

Mariann Pepitone the country is much bigger than Chicago. The numbers show there are more whites on welfare than the entire black population in this country.

Joe The Ex-Repulican   March 1st, 2009 2:17 pm ET

I wish Ann, Rush, Hannity, and all other Conservative talk show hosts as many engagements as possible. Conservative used in conjunction with these people and most of the republican party is only a label they latched onto when real conservatives were prominent and growing. These people and the republican party are not conservative in any way, except for possibly social issues, for which they are past conservative and in the realm of extremism, much like a party that evolved in the 30's and 40's in Germany. Different time, different system, different people, and greater intelligence of the population here and now has stomped on this Neo Conservative movement. Rush, Ann, and others are paid handsomely to keep the dream alive.

Mariann Pepitone   March 1st, 2009 2:16 pm ET

realist: I give you credit for telling the truth that these commentors don't want to hear. That's why they voted him in office because he duped them and the loved every speech of it. It doesn't take a college graduate to know that Obama's words are from other president's speeches. Many people in this country are now waking up to the fact of that . I like Rush because he speaks his mind and it is the truth. And what he says is all coming out now. Obama cannot run this country but his Clinton administration can because they have the experience that he has yet to learn. Most of the people on this comment board wouldn't care if Obama causes a depression because they call him the Messiah and they would praise him.

Charles   March 1st, 2009 2:15 pm ET

You Demobrats understand that 47% of this country doesn't agree with you. 47% of this country will never back down from its beliefs and ideals. 47% that will fight tooth and nail to keep America a free nation. 47% that will never let the government control its life. . .
------------------------------
Stevie, sweetie, step back and take a deep breath. You are hyperventilating. Besides, 53% of the people are actually paying attention and that is why the Republicans lost. If the 47% are so sure they are right, why not form a nation somewhere else on the planet. This will leave space for the 53% who want American to survive. And think how many jobs there would be when all of you are gone away. Yea, that's the ticket. Take your craziness and go somewhere else and practice it.

Together Each Accmplishes More   March 1st, 2009 2:11 pm ET

and the ignorance continues as the blind bush so-called Christians/Conservatives/Republicans continue their lies ... "Bush tried twice for regulation but your brilliant democratic congress denied it "

Bush had the veto pen: didn't use it. With a 49-49 split in the Senate, Bush in the White House the Democrats did not "control" much at all -
rewriting history and the party of "I don't recall" might get a surprise if Christ decided to come down and ask them what they have done for their country and their fellow man: the answer would be nothing but spew hatred.

CNN has jumped the shark. Why are comments still open on this when you close others down within 15 minutes sometimes. You have become no better than Fox. Sometimes when I am flipping channels I accidently stop on Fox because I think I am at CNN. Why are you placing ads on Fox? Do you really want their viewers? Hosting Bernie Goldberg, Ann Coulter and uninterrupted Rush Limbaugh. CNN has become Chronically Negative Nonsense. We want information, not opinion. You guys interview each other. Wake up. You are suppose to inform us, not reform us. I'm sure this won't get posted. Ted Turner weeps.

laughing   March 1st, 2009 2:05 pm ET

we have a party, spewing nothing but Hate and division.
we sent a pretty clear message NO more hate, no more division
What part of this don't they get?
Freedom of speech is one thing, spreading hate is another and that is a new law we need. And enforced to the max.
We call gun toting, hate groups gangs.. America has a problem with Gangs.. Send the first message to the biggest Gang in America the republicans.. NO more

cracks me up to watch the republican party chase their tails like a bunch of dogs.. We have a working President.. which is making the republican party work for a change.. Every week… BAM
isn't it great.. A President that's thinking.. and working..
I think what's frustrating the pubes is they can't keep up.. can't wait till Monday to see what he hits them with!!!
They don't have a plan of their own, they can't write one cause they are to busy being the negative/hate party.
They are the biggest jokes in America.. every country is talking about them and laughing…
Years of them spewing jokes about race, diversity and culture.. the tables are turned..
And the world is seeing.. they are nothing but lies and hate

Mariann Pepitone   March 1st, 2009 2:04 pm ET

michael: For a two bit radio host wouldn't you like to have a 35 million dollar contract like he has. Sure you would and you would be saying the same as Rush. I like Rush because he speaks the truth and the truth hurts the democrats because this was the worst corrupt election in American history. Pelosi, Dean, Durbin and Reid. All underhanded and corrupt. Along with the Chicago city hall mob like Quinn and both Madigan's who want Burris out of that senate seat because it is a race issue. Lisa Madigan wants that seat and her father wants her job. They already know how Obama won that senate seat and the woman who was going to run for it was betrayed by him. Obama learned the tricks of the trade long before he was in Chicago and before me met Rezko the man who helped him pay for that house.

james s   March 1st, 2009 2:04 pm ET

Listen to what Rush said during his speech "when I Look into the audience I don't see people as Blacks, or Hispanics", but literally he was correct because there were none there. Steele was not available to attend and Jindal was at Disney land.

Mariann Pepitone   March 1st, 2009 1:56 pm ET

surelyjean: You are so wrong about the poor whites. If you want to talk about people being poor take a trip to the southside of Chicago and you really will see the poor who are mainly on welfare and link cards and they are not white. And Obama's grandmother paid for his college because he didn't have any money himself but he had money to buy drugs, booze and smokes. He was lucky to have her around. Get a grip on life. I live in Chicago, born and raised here, seen that welfare station trying to help someone get on SSI until he got his social security check and sitting there was mainly blacks and mexican's.

the rockstar: And what character do you stand on. And don't you wish you were in the same limelight making her money? Of course you do and so does all the commentors on this board. She is absolutely right when she stated people were comparing him to Jesus and Abraham Lincoln. He is not Jesus and can't hold a candle to Lincoln. Lincoln was a republican and Obama like him because he freed the slaves. Obama needs to shape up or ship out. He has made a bigger mess than we were already in by his continuing bailouts to the millionaires. If he continues you commentors will be eating crow,.

We are in trouble as a country. We need more Blue Dogs in Congress; they don't have the extreme Republicans views nor do they lean to far to the left. They will be able to work with the President to have a constructive conversation to get a robust solution to this problem. As for these two clowns (Coulter and Limbaugh); God help us.

You do not find Christianity on display under a big top circus tent in Europe as you do in red state America. Ann Coulter represents those who believe in their own interpretation of American isolationist Conservative Christianity found only in the United States.

It would only be fitting that Coulter campaign as Palin's running mate in 2012.

I do hope that Sarah changes her mind and campaigns as the GOP front runner in 2012. Her hate mongering of this past election season may lose a bit of its luster by then and the majority of the educated world may need to be reminded of why it distrusts and hates Conservative America(ns); and rightly so.

However, I could never vote Republican as long as they embrace people like Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh. As a Democrat who voted third party this election, I feel I don't have a party. Both parties are so consumed with hatred and rage, that I want no part of either. If you think I'm wrong, just read the comments here, each party is filled with intolerance. The Obama supporters here who spew hate, don't understand that the Democratic party used to be the party of ideas and acceptance, now we are just the party of gimme and name calling.

This country is going down in a ball of flames with BO and you people are cheering it on.
You all need to do your research and realize while this may have happened on Bush's watch it was implamented under Clinton. Bush tried twice for regulation but your brilliant democratic congress denied it because they were making huge money off both Freddie and Fanny. Granted, Bush made plenty of mistakes....given, so don't wine. But he should only be blamed for the mistakes he truly made. We could have recovered from deficit caused by the war, Katrina etc. I know you people are going to repeat that rhetoric.....We will never recover from this stimulus and budget of this administration.
My gosh people, how long will you stay so ignorant. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.....
By the way- what's the difference between BO honoring Stevie Wonder at the White House and the big banks hiring Sheryl Crow to sing at their lavish dinners?. All it amounted to was a free concert for Michele at the tax payers expense!!! If you were being on honored would you work? He put on a full concert when he should have been kicking back and accepting some sort of stupid plauque. Lied to AGAIN by BO .....no pork, no lobbiest, no wasteful spending......"Let me make this clear I don't have to do what I say. I am the Messiah. You will cheer me and worship me......drink the koolaid.

Look at the dress she's wearing – she call herself a conservative but dresses the way she does to get attention. She should have manure dumped on her in front of a crowd of people who would then laugh at her for 24 straight hours. That is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of the humiliation her ego deserves.

Anne Coulter is a horrible excuse for a woman. She's not even a woman. She's a stick and she doesn't think about what she says – she's just going for shock value.

Yet, she was pretty shocked when Al Franken gave her a public smackdown that you can look up on youtube and enjoy.

It was brilliant.

trying to be reasonable in WV   March 1st, 2009 1:04 pm ET

Many have said it here: Coulter and Limbaugh are entertainers who make their considerable incomes by pushing the buttons of those who want their buttons pushed. My remedy for Coulter and Limbaugh: turn off the TV/radio or switch channels/stations, and NEVER, EVER buy anything they write or promote. If they should say/do something actually newsworthy because it contributes positively and intelligently to the national discourse (I'm hardly holding my breath!), reputable sources will let me know, and I can watch/read what they have to say for FREE! . . . And the less attention they draw, the sooner they'll disappear. Starve 'em, I say!

HillarySupportersForObamaInCT   March 1st, 2009 1:02 pm ET

But the media wasn't being a "government watchdog" during the past eight years when they basically allowed Bush et. al. to get us into a disastrous war in Iraq, among other debacles? This is the best this "woman" can come up with? Be part of the solution, Coulter, not the problem.

kap   March 1st, 2009 1:01 pm ET

The large majority of these comments demonstrate the need for better education (and common sense Training) for our nation. The amount of non-factual information provided and the " you're so spiteful and mean but I can call you and others anything I wish and I'm not mean nor spiteful" attitude portrayed by so many of the comments, can only leave anyone who really tries to listen to both sides of an issue with the impression that our nation is in the hands of a very questionable electorate

That attitude right there shows your ignorance. The fact that you actually believe that all educated hard working people are conservative, and all democrats are welfare-milking idiots. What cave do you live in? I know plenty of well educated successful people who are democrats, and I know plenty of ignorant people who have no health care and show just show up for the ER who are Republicans (some of my relatives in fact). Generalizations only display your skewed view of the situation here.

reagan fan forever   March 1st, 2009 12:55 pm ET

It's interesting the comments here from all the loving, unifying, open-minded and fair liberals. You hate Limbaugh because he's fat, you hate Coulter because she's skinny, you call them everything but a child of God, and then you say THEIR hatefulness is shameful.

Very interesting.

EricNY   March 1st, 2009 12:53 pm ET

53-46 was a mediocre victory? She sure seemed thrill with the 51-49 bush win in '04 and the fact that he was in the negative in 2000 but won anyway. This woman is cancer to society. Insults jewish people and 9/11 widows and her base loves her. Shows whats wrong with the world today.

Look at all the "Entertainers" trying to boost their ratings by spreading the hatred that Repug's brought us. I guess they learned how quickly it brought a nobody like Palin into the limelight they figure they should try it too.

Keep the hate alive, vote Republican.

Cindy   March 1st, 2009 12:53 pm ET

There has got to be a reason as to why Ann is so bitter and lonely. I'm thinking she was molested as a child or something horrible has happened to her.
She is just way out there and I almost feel sorry for her.
Almost! I said, lol.
Actually her a Rush wold make a fabulous couple. EEWWWW, don't do the visual.

WeThePeopleOfVA   March 1st, 2009 12:53 pm ET

As a fiscal conservative, the only true pleasure I receive from Ann Coulter is how she makes the far left squeal . . . but then again they are the party of pork barrel politics.

YES WE CAN'T!!!   March 1st, 2009 12:53 pm ET

If Coulter was 'irrelevant', she would not be getting over 1,000 comments from narrow-minded liberals here. The best part was when she talked about the Obama media comparisons to Reagan and Lincoln, and how the media hasn't found a good Democrat to compare the Messiah to. Keep it up Ann!

Lee Bartholomew   March 1st, 2009 12:53 pm ET

Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow are not like Ann Coulter and Rush limbaugh.

I'd say maybe Al Franken is the polar opposite of Ann. I'm not sure there is a polar opposite of Rush. Don't see a popular socialist (left) compared to the extreme right wing Rush. Maybe someone from the neo nazi's can relate. ?? These twits have nothing to do with the news.

Dennis C   March 1st, 2009 12:52 pm ET

If Rush and Coulter are the new voice of the conservative movement this will only serve to alienate moderates even more. They were speaking to a room full of people who needed a big conservative hug after the events of the past few months but I'm sure there are Republicans who fear where their party is headed and how the American public will respond to these rants and tirades.

Melinda   March 1st, 2009 12:51 pm ET

I find it ironic that the people on this blog who are denouncing Anne Coulter as being divisive, mean spirited, etc. are doing so in terms that are much more divisive and mean spirited than anything she has to say. How in the world does what she had to say lead to charges of her being a bimbo or bleached blond tramp? It is truly shocking to me that people cannot see their own hypocrisy. It saddens me to think what this country has become. Too many have been so blinded by their ideology that they can no longer think like rational human beings.It really is a sad thing to see. God help us all.

KJensen   March 1st, 2009 12:50 pm ET

I dont see anything wrong about what Anne Coulter is saying, she is right about how the media is reacting to Obama.

They are treating him like he is the Messiah, when the truth is that he is a unexperienced politician with questionable judgement (look at the preacher he was following in Chicago).

I think what she said is actually pretty funny and true.

ruty   March 1st, 2009 12:49 pm ET

Just like during the election, they're out with their mighty keyboards pouncing on anything and anybody who might disagree with their imperious leader. "Oh God, it's a conservative," they scream, standing up and sitting down 1000 times like their "Queen," Ping Pong Pelosi.

The GOP's future has suddenly become bright, as people are starting to realize that this country is in deep doo doo now that the Dims are selling the country to the Chinese in order to make sure everyone has the same can of soup in their cupboard.

you libs are so funny. you complain about racist remarks and call the GOP intolerant and then turn around and describe the GOP and Ann and Rush in the most racist and intolerant remarks. could this be because deep down you know they speak the truth. while ann can be abrasive and both are somewhat extreme. they are right and that burns you up. if we are so out of touch then why are the majority of americans upset with nobama? you cant take the heat even though for 8 years and even now, with bush out of office you still suffer from bush derangement syndrome. you will see change in 2010 when americans vote republican and once again put the left back in their box or back in california cause your wonderful policies work sooooo well!

I'm a FORMER Republican. Why? Because they ARE NOT the party Ronald Reagan left behind. They are CERTAINLY not the party Abraham Lincoln founded!
Republicans have lost their way in a GRAVE manner, and nothing proves this more to me now than seeing the two greatest tools on stage touted as the face of Republicans: Coulter and Limbaugh.
What is the matter with you Republicans? Did you forget how Bush did the complete opposite of our principles? I mean, was I the ONLY one that couldn't congratulate Bush for "defending America?" for 8 years? Excuse, but didn't it take THE DEATH OF 3,000+ AMERICANS ON 9/11 to MOTIVATE him to do just that?! That's like saying I'm a good driver, AFTER the 20 car pile-up, killing of 6 people for negligent driving 8 years ago.
I'm not a Democrat either. I can't stand some of their priniciples, but my former party has turned into a creature that I can't recognize, and in light of this, I can only go independent and join to work with other Republicans against your Neo-ConArtist dealings.

Coulter and Limbaugh are the faces of DEATH to the Republican Party- once a party of intellectualism, and fiscal responsibility is now nothing more than a party for jingoism, and latent racism!

I may not agree with everything she says, but I must say that all of you that say CNN or other media shouldn't cover her are very hypocritical. The idea of censoring the media is a big mistake (even though I don't always agree with what they present). Just think... if things were censored, most of the comments on this board would need to be removed for defamation of Ann's character.

Get real... take responsibility for your actions... and listen to others... most people have something to offer (even if you don't agree with everything).

virginia for obama   March 1st, 2009 12:35 pm ET

I find that people who criticize everything and everybody are people who don't like themselves.

No more plantations Rush and Coulter. If your way of thinking is the reflection of the Republican party, they can forget being elected for a long time. I am looking forward to having a good laugh as they talk their way into obsoleteness. It is clear that America has more serious things on their mind as they face job losses and home foreclosure, or face bankruptcy because of health bills that they cant afford to pay.

Jesse Jackson lived through the civil rights movement where prejudice against Blacks was LAW. Al sharpton today has witnessed innocent Blacks being targeted killed by cops. I do not agree with their methods of getting their points across, and everything that they say, but at least their anger is justified in ways that can be documented.

What can you document that Ann Coulter has lived through, that would justify this level of anger on her part? Show me, and I will be open to your point of view.

Annie and Rush are two of the most ignorant, bigoted, hate mongers this side of post Nazi Germany. They spew hate and fear among the least educated parts of this country who oddly enough are generally e poor, rural whites who would most benefit from the programs that Obama proposes. What has Limbaugh or Coulter ever done to help the situation? They are selfish morons concerned about no one but themselves and their own greedy ambitions. Apparently the Repunks. arent concerned about growing the party if these two skinheads are their leaders. Oh, and what does Michael Steele have to say about these two? I'm sure he was in a corner grinning and knee slapping with a token sign draped around his neck. But I guess thats better than a noose.

If this is the best the GOP can dredge up to represent their message, then they have truly lost sight of America. I don't think the world will have to suffer through another Republican government like Bush and company for decades to come.

We need ideals and progress, not third rate stand up comics and Joe the plumbers. And most of all not hate spewing do nothing blowhards like Limbaugh herding the GOP party around like obedient sheep. The real joke is what the GOP has made itself into. What happened? Did you sell your souls so many times you forgot where they are?

Your kind allowed the Bush Administration to walk in as if they were a vampire at the front door who asked permission to enter the home without fully realizing the danger you and the rest of us were in.

Although your comments are yours and should be respected, I do not agree with this way of thinking. What happened to "G-D and country"?
This president is actually thinking about Americans for a change and not about his father's corporate cronies and how much money they'll make by outsourcing American jobs to inferior quality producing countries like China or India.

The president has only been on the job for just over a month and after fighting a hard and well thought-out campaign, he was left with one of the worst situations this countries been in since the depression.

Its all about power. They want power and control and the ability to spend our money in any way they see fit. I feel an insurrection brewing. The question is who will step up and lead the Nation based on the Constitution not right and left wing ideology. Whenthat person emerges a tidal wave of relief with consume the Nation and wah away the far right and left into the abysiss.

Will someone stand up, show some guts and lead our Nation back to our foundation and govern under the guides of the Constitution and al l its amendments?

Therockstar   March 1st, 2009 11:50 am ET

Ann Coulter is a ratings driven loud mouth. The GOP is full of a bunch of cry babies. Bush was handle with kid gloves his first 3 years and he was a complete disaster both from a policy stand point and were he has led our country economically and politically intentionally.

The GOP attack machine has been in full gear since the inception of the Obama campain. Calling him a terrorist, a Muslim and criticizing his every move. But they have only a small soap box to stand on because they ran the most partisan administration in history and the results were devastating.

Ann will say what ever she has to to drive book sales and rating but she lacks substance and character.

Obama will pay for it...oh, I mean YOU"LL pay for it....

These posts are hilarious! God forbid that anyone criticize the Obomanation Socialist Society of America... They need only look at their great leader, -THE ONE – to see what is wrong with our once great country. Obama is the most controlling and arrogant leader of modern history. The demogods only want complete and total control (also called communism) they want to steal from the hard workers to give to the poor. Keep burying your head in the sand and maybe things will get better... Good luck with that.

I find the remarks from Ann and Rush a refreshing taste of truth and sensibility. But then again I am just a gun toting, bible clinging Christian.

I hope the youth of America realize that all this spending by Obama will mostly help the wealthy as their investments begin to rise again. It's the youth that will be left with a "lower standard of living" because they will have this debt to repay over many decades- that's the basic conservative message. We are not even talking about the social security problem facing our aging nation as we add more and more new spending programs. There is no "free lunch" when the government spends money that it doesn't have, that's how we got in this mess by many Americans spending borrowed money and now can't pay it back.

Independent Voted Democrat   March 1st, 2009 11:47 am ET

The GOP would really benefit well in the coming years if they would finally realize that they really do need to revamp themselves. To me, they are now the party known as stubborn children who keep saying no and will never say yes to anything whatsoever. They could rise once again if they would send the message of fiscal responsibility but also understand that we live in a new era. We do not live in the 1980's anymore. Nearly 30 years later, we now face a ton of new issues, some of which were hidden under the carpet for too long, such as health care costs and energy. While I don't agree with everything that Obama is doing, at least he is finally doing something about these issues unlike the previous presidents from the last few decades.

I think what the GOP needs to start doing is offer their own solutions instead of simply saying no to what Obama is doing. If the GOP were in power right now, what would they do about all of this? The answer can't be nothing anymore, because the American people are getting tired of that. As we have seen during the Reagan/Bush years, tax cuts alone are not the answer to all of our problems. The world is getting more complex each and every day and we have to find new ways to deal with them. Of course, simply spending isn't the answer either and I hope Obama will do more than just that.

Either way, I think the GOP needs to sit aside for the next few years and if Obama can't get the job done well enough, then that's fine. But you guys need to start coming up with some new solutions. People aren't going to buy the tax cut thing anymore unless it is combined with some other answers.

All I am reading here is hatred spew from nimble-minded liberals...who love nothing better than to call conservatives "haters.."

Or, perhaps it's merely fear; because when pushed, a liberal cannot defend any policy of OBama's without going against the American way or the Rights we have as citizens. That's why I think liberals get so upset (and the 700 posts here substantiate this) is because they know deep inside they're jealous and have hatred towards those that have made their way, and are successful. The easy way out for libs is to elect an "official thug-thief," so then they feel better about stealing and spreading around what's not theirs....hopefully a revolution will put an end to liberalism...why? Because liberals are a minority, despite what the media tries to present....the country's still full of good, center-rigth people... and ....well....as far as liberals go, you excise a cancer, you cannot reason with it.

Kim   March 1st, 2009 11:45 am ET

To BRAD H: uh, the last time I checked, before the election, cnn was getting heat for leaning a little too far to the left. Hmmm....maybe instead of being part of the problem, they are just doing what journalists do and are trying to give reports for both sides of the pool. Liberals!

Daniel, Atlanta, GA, ex-republican   March 1st, 2009 11:44 am ET

As a psychotherapist, I see many symptoms of mental illness in the Republican leadership: intense fear, paranoia, unbridled anger, religious delusions, "us against them" mentality, rigid morals, blaming others for their mistakes, racial divisiveness, hatred, arrogance, bitterness, denial of their problems, authoritarian attitudes, anxiety, low self-esteem, etc.

I would recommend to any republican some serious psychiatric help and long-term therapy!

Obamacide   March 1st, 2009 11:44 am ET

You shouldn't be surprised that liberals get so riled up. After all, liberalism is a mental disorder. These are the people that don't want to take responsibility for anything they do. They want to tell everyone else how to act, and what they can say or do. If a liberal hears something they don't like, they can only get combative. Obama, will, not may, WILL go down in history as the worst president of these United Socialist States of America.

The next campaign will begin in 2 years, because we will still be in the economic toilet because of the constipated thinking of Obama and Pelosi and that moron Reid. First, replace CONGRESS, then one year later gear up to remove the Hand Puppet that is your President.

a powers   March 1st, 2009 11:44 am ET

To reply to how many times did Obama vote present – how many times did George Bush vote ABSENT to everything that was going on in the country???

Donatella   March 1st, 2009 11:43 am ET

As far as I'm concerned the republicans are done, they are truly out of touch with reality, if they think for one minute this is the way to lure people in they are sadly mistaken. This kind of approach will only appeal to a small group of people.!!!!

John   March 1st, 2009 11:43 am ET

He didn't text her, moron.

Fred S.   March 1st, 2009 11:43 am ET

Ann Coulter has never had an original thought. He whole life is based on attacking others who happen to disagree with her very right wing view. Where were she and Rush when the Bush administration increased federal spending to new levels, increased the deficit to a record dollar amount and failed to take action to avert the economic meltdown? She and others would rather see the American people continue to suffer rather than give Obama credit for recovery efforts.

Diane   March 1st, 2009 11:43 am ET

Politics in America is getting uglier everyday. Do politicans not care about the well beings of the American people? It seems like political "ideologies" supercede the American people. So why do we need politicians when they are not representing our best interests?

The GOP is nothing more than a hate group and the Dems are the "hope" group. Which party do you think will win at the end? In my understanding hate, anger, lies and remarks like this never touch people. Supporting the GOP is like anticipating for a suicide bomb ready to crush America. With so much hate between the two parties, I am beginning to believe that America will probably segregate in the future into the United States of the Red and the United States of the Blue, and independents will proprably be cast off on an island somewhere near Alaska.

Jeff of Peoria   March 1st, 2009 11:42 am ET

I wish Limbaugh and Coulter would go away but where would they go?

Steve   March 1st, 2009 11:42 am ET

Hey, don't worry libs. With Obama in office all of our world problems will be solved.

We'll just ramp up our debt to the point where there is no way our children can pay for it. Thank you Obama.

The more you learn, the more you turn republican. Let's take Barney Fife - oops, I mean Frank who put us in the economic mess. Or, lets take Dodd who received a sweatheart loan from the same people who put us in this mess.

Get a life. Our current VP says that you can't go into a 7-11 without smelling an Indian. And it's Palin who gets crucified on late night shows?

All of those who voted dem party line - you're going to get what you deserve. Inflation and high unemployment. Just as Frank and Dodd prescribed.

The President's own CBO says his spending is going to HURT the economy. Get a life people and THINK!

Bill Gordon   March 1st, 2009 11:41 am ET

@ Bill in DC -

You idiot, the conservatives are the ones trying to save the country...in 50yrs, with the likes of the moron Obama, we won't have a country....

Dennis Donnelly   March 1st, 2009 11:37 am ET

Yo! I'm an AMERICAN! I do not see myself as Rep or Dem and know we need function not division. Looking for high quality information to move foward I just gotta laugh at anyone who would depend on two showbizz gaffs like Anne and Rush. The only reason they have their position in media is because of their daddys. Rushs daddy bought him a radio station,Annies daddy created a spot for the female ideal mate should Joe Macarthy be ressurected and want to mate. Just like Bush they were born with Le Silver Spoon,resenting daddys control.Rush & anne both have eating disorders,this they CAN control.I LOVE comedy. Anne is much funnier than Rush.Chris Rock is funnier than Anne,but going to them as a source of information is,well,funny until we realize it's a meter of how in trouble we are as a country. The GOP better learn the differance between intelligence and wisdom,entertainment and information or they are doomed just like Bush!

Zack   March 1st, 2009 11:36 am ET

The same can be said about much of what Coulter and Limbaugh spout, Superferret. They don't exactly promote friendly, thoughtful discussion.

mary   March 1st, 2009 11:36 am ET

I just feel so sorry for limbaugh and coulter. Talk about sour grapes and reeking of desperation. Pathetic. While things are def not perfect in dc lets not forget who brought us to this point. Why not say something about the waste and the leadership during that time if only to say they need to look at themselves, improve and listen to what the majority of the country would like to see happen. Do they love the state of affairs in the US at the time of bushs departure? wasteful spending now – what about the last 8 years? talk about being in a coma at the wheel. Are they competely blind deaf and dumb? What happened to conservatism then? Did it only conveniently apply to social issues?
At least this president is on his feet trying to get things done. He doesnt have all the answers I dont think anyone does but he gets my vote so far for trying. I am not enamoured by any of these politicians and will wait to give him his final grade. He has to work for my vote next time around just like anyone else who stands for election.
Its def time for a third party!

mike   March 1st, 2009 11:36 am ET

Gee, more hate speech from the far right wing, how productive. Wasn't Coulter's 15 minutes up long ago? If that's all the Repubs can dig up – Coulter & Limbaugh – then the Dems have nothing to fear. The same old, tired, regurgitated crap from an increasingly irrelevant party.

dan   March 1st, 2009 11:36 am ET

why is anyone giving press time to this person?

TCM   March 1st, 2009 11:35 am ET

you liberal pukes are amazing; what the worst part is, you can't admit mistakes...like voting for OBama...now, he's spouting that blacks have it worse than whites right now...this isn't a racial president? Taking money from the rich (because they're predominantly white) and giving it to the poor because they're predominantly black....? OR just waiting for a handout as usual...?

Coulter's right, about everything she's citing, and you liberal wussies hate her because she speaks the truth....too bad! You've screwed the country and yourselves by electing the absolute worst person to lead this country....all due to your own selfishness.....SCREW YOU!

Linda, Phoenix, Arizona   March 1st, 2009 11:33 am ET

Nobody cares what Coulter has to say except the few who still drink the coolaid. She is a hate monger, un American traitor who should never have been able to spout her venim on our public ariwaves. Jst like Rush Lumbaugh, when the Fairness Doctrine is renewed. she will be off the air. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

I have one thing to say to her....shut up.

Bgail   March 1st, 2009 11:31 am ET

What is sadder than the pathetic, negative, scurrilous ravings of the speakers at the CPAC convention is the response of their followers that totally refuses to hear these ravings for what they are. How can you possibly think of converting sane people to your way of thinking with childish attacks on their character and motives. Since when have any of you been able to read another's heart?

When I saw Rush speak, I saw Hitler. When I hear the congresswoman from Minnesota speak, I hear McCarthy. Do you people not remember history? Do you not remember that one insane angry person can lead a nation to hell?

I don't mind the difference of opinion. What I mind is the insighting to anger and wrath and total agreement to disagree whether a solution makes sense or not. Repubs seem to be ready to burn down their own country merely because they are no longer in control of it. How grown up!

bill   March 1st, 2009 11:31 am ET

geez you liberals need some serious help.... first start with anger manegement then come back to me for a follow up evaluation. so many of you rip Coulter/Rush for being hate mongers etc etc, do you listen to people in your own party like Al Franken? The other Hollywood morons? So many of your politicians and look in the mirror at yourselves. It always makes me laugh when people on your side of the political spectrum talk about peace/no war but then they are the ones committing violent acts, they are the ones supporting abortion- the killing of babies. The anger on the left is out of control. You people preach all about tolerance but have none yourselves for people who have different opinions and beliefs. Pathetic!!

kd   March 1st, 2009 11:30 am ET

Republican-style hate is just so tiresome.

........and yet, they still don't get it.

Keep it up Ann. You're doing a great job of running your party into the ground.

Avi Shlomo   March 1st, 2009 11:30 am ET

Ann coulter on testosterone. Has anyone ever thought of the shape of her Adam apple. Is she a male hiding in female clothes? Attacking MSNBC is like the Kettle calling the pot black. what was she doing with the rest of the republican clowns for the last 8 years? If the republican failed it is because of narrow minded ideology of people like her. Blame yourself ANN B. Coulter!!

lkinopfl   March 1st, 2009 11:30 am ET

GOP = CULT (Satanic CULT) & Ann Coulter and Rush are the ring leaders. SAD.. VERY VERY SAD! Dear God I pray that these people never gain control of our country EVER AGAIN!!!!!

Bosworth   March 1st, 2009 11:30 am ET

Sorry to those who viciously attack critics of the President. Seems like if it's okay to go after Bush, then it should be okay to criticize Obama. Of course, most of the hypocrites on this page don't recognize the convention: but free speech goes both ways. Get used to it.

Bummer   March 1st, 2009 11:29 am ET

Wow, look at all the peace and love coming from the liberals that espouse it. You people have no problem bashing conservatives and republicans.(not the same thing, which you would know if you have half of a brain) But boy, if someone takes pot shots at your boy Obama you get all sorts of upset.

Hypocrits!

Survivor   March 1st, 2009 11:29 am ET

President Obama continues to balance the state of the economy not only the effects on our country but the world and the party of "no" – he is doing a good job considering what he is dealing with – No thanks to these side line clowns named the Rush and Ann show....they are not helpful and full of self loathing and self serving ideas – good for them bad for the country.

JoMomma   March 1st, 2009 11:29 am ET

Wow! Noting like a little Republican pep rally to bring out the bloody fangs of the hate mongering Democrats. Free speech, baby! Wouldn't surprise me if there isn't another revolution in the U.S to get us back to the principles upon which this country was founded. Where do I sign up?

judy   March 1st, 2009 11:28 am ET

Please go away Ann Coulter. You are nasty, mean, ugly, and you should go back under the rock you crawled out of. You have to be so unhapppy.

Nick   March 1st, 2009 11:28 am ET

Now, let us look at the GOP role models: Limbaugh, (911 victims enjoying their husband's deaths) Coulter, Joe (no license) the Plumber, (Won't take the stimulus money) Jindal, (Can't remember the papers I read everyday) Palin, ....

Time to reinvent the party.

Merle   March 1st, 2009 11:28 am ET

-LOL-

Andrew   March 1st, 2009 11:28 am ET

Ann and Rush look like the number "10" when standing next to each other.

Ex-Republican in Philadelphia   March 1st, 2009 11:27 am ET

She's a good marketer of her own "brand" which helps her sell books. There's nothing more to her than that. One poster here said that it looks as if supporters of Obama are "worried" about Coulter. Why would we be worried? The GOP is in a very difficult spot. They clearly got us into this historic economic mess and now the intelligent solutions are coming only from the Democrats. If the Repugs fight the economic initiatives and the country goes into an even worse recession, then the Repugs will be blamed. If they go along with the Democrats, they will lose their connection with their base. Thus, they bring out vacuous whips like Coulter that throw out quips to their desperate audience rather than presenting analytically sound solutions and alternatives. So, the answer is "No," Obama supporters (most of the country, in case you didn't notice...) are not worried about Ann Coulter.

concerned in the us   March 1st, 2009 11:27 am ET

So funny that anyone believes ann, rush, or bush and obama make any difference.

We are a country of idiots... politicians will take advantage. Always.
We are NEVER proactive. We never "do what is right even if it hurts"

Imagine the oil saved if we forced pop bottle recycling like we do in some states. Imagine if we put deposit on water bottles...
(I hate taking them back too. life is a bich)
Imagine if we ran the country like we do private business... Oh, wait, we do! Like GM. Times will always be good right?
Maybe a "do something unethical and loose your job and pension" plan from government. yeah right.

judy   March 1st, 2009 11:25 am ET

Ann Coulter should just go away. She is a nobody, nasty, ugly, mean. Go crawl back under your rock!!!! Get a life of your own!!!

Sami   March 1st, 2009 11:25 am ET

If Coulter and Limbaugh are the voice of the GOP – it won't be around very much longer!

Andrew L   March 1st, 2009 11:25 am ET

One word for the likes of Coulter. Irrelevant!!!! Ok, a few more words. She's a clown. I don't mean that superficially either. Her role is conservative clown. I am a liberal, but I respect true conservatives, and there ideas on fiscal responsibility. The conversations and resulting policies need to reflect the balance between these view points, with a common respect for the others significant concerns (general welfare vs. effective means). Clowns like Coulter turn this into a circus, with nothing but distraction and wasted breath. WHY, WHY, WHY do we give her a stage?

Rick   March 1st, 2009 11:25 am ET

If Rush weren't so fat, I would think Ann was he in drag, instead of whomever she realy is. She makes Palin sound smart. Witty does not equate to intelligence. And, Palin isn't smart.

Timothy Grandenburg   March 1st, 2009 11:24 am ET

I believe Ann Coulter is a shining example of what America is all about and should be. The fact that a transgendered person can ascend to be the spokesperson for conservative causes truly shows that you can live your dreams as an American. Andrew Coulter, now "Ann"-- even with an Adam's apple, you're a beautiful American success story.

Ken Mat   March 1st, 2009 11:24 am ET

Shouldn't this woman be under quarantine until a cure can be found for her condition?

Eileen   March 1st, 2009 11:24 am ET

Coulter makes her living by being snide and snarky and keeping the status quo – keeping the bitter frothing. The President is actively involved in moving this country forward and correcting the mistakes of the previous administration(s). People can use their own intellect to decide who they should respect and listen to.

Walter   March 1st, 2009 11:24 am ET

And this is how the Republican's plan to find their way out of the wilderness.

Obama should unpack and get comfortable.

Don   March 1st, 2009 11:23 am ET

Too bad the conservatives didn't notice how soundly their ideas were rejected in November. But it is good to see them rallying to their cause because if they regain control of the GOP, the party will continue to be an opposition party with bankrupt ideas that have been demonstrated not to work.

tony   March 1st, 2009 11:22 am ET

Ann Coulter,

I don't blame Obama. I mean, look at Scarlett Johansson. Conservatives might be more fired up about you, but the rest of us have better taste.

Madmore   March 1st, 2009 11:22 am ET

Superferret....so, a convention filled with hate and hostility is surprised to see it reflect back on them?
When was the last time Ann or Rush said anything not filled with hate and bitterness??

Tom   March 1st, 2009 11:21 am ET

The republican party won't exist in 50 years? You idiots do realize that most smart people who go to college and work hard for a living become conservatives, right? No one wants to pay for your health care or your meals you idiots.

David Dean   March 1st, 2009 11:21 am ET

Phew! As long as the Republican's cling to the likes of Coulter & Rush....we are safe!

Jeanne H.   March 1st, 2009 11:21 am ET

This is fun to watch. A bunch of sore losers bashing the winners and patting each others on the back. Losers can always count on each other for support.

Renee Sethness   March 1st, 2009 11:21 am ET

Thank God for Ann and Rush. If it wasn't for them we would hear only one side of the story media, much like Russia. It is so obvious to me how biased the public media has become. Such a croud following mentality. Interesting that Fox news has such a large following. After reading Ann Coulter's book and both of O'Bama's, O'Bama's frightened me much more than Ann's.

Anna, ATL   March 1st, 2009 11:20 am ET

HEY!
Watch the Blonde Bimbo cracks!

Coulter's jokes are simply not funny. If someone can take a relevant political jab on a policy or ideology they disagree with, that is fair game.
But referring to the President as B. Hussein Obama throughout her book is just a cheap shot, and very offensive.
The name Hussein wouldnt mean a thing to her if she couldn't link it to the former dictator of Iraq.
People like Coulter and Limbaugh will not get the party anywhere.

ahhhhhhhhhhhh   March 1st, 2009 11:20 am ET

She's just another hated-filled narcissist. Apparently they are drawn out of all proportion to the Republican party.

boatingman001   March 1st, 2009 11:20 am ET

Ann Coulter is not funny and never could be but reading about her makes me smile. Wacked with a dumb stick she must be on the same pills as Rush. And I thought Nancy was bad for the dems, they are even worse for the Reps. Recently I had a rep friend that was trying to think of names for his dog and one of the names he came up with was ann coulter...He wanted to be able to say.."don't s#$% on the carpet ann coulter...bad dog."

Susan   March 1st, 2009 11:19 am ET

Wow! How soon we forget and attempt to rewrite history.

Gore won the popular vote in 200 (Gore 48.3 vs Bush 47.9), an inconvenient truth. To say Obama win is "mediocre" is a lie.

If Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter have become the voice of the GOP, the party is n deep trouble. Are they saying we can't go any lower? Keep it up for more wins for the DEMs in 2012.

Steve   March 1st, 2009 11:19 am ET

You Democrats are all up in arms about this...

...but did you listen to what Coulter had to say? And for the few of you who did, are you actually claiming that any of it is false?

If the Republican party was lying about this stuff, they would have had lawsuits filed against them by now. But guess what? FOX news is still on the air... makes you think, doesn't it? (And don't give me any of that "the Democrats are too good to file lawsuits" crap, because you're full of it if you think that.)

So Dems, go turn on the liberal stations and watch shows like SNL... because as good as you are at dishing it out, you're equally as bad at taking it.

Lee Stanford   March 1st, 2009 11:19 am ET

Just a couple of words for Ann Coulter: Chain smoking, skank loud mouth!

Supergirl   March 1st, 2009 11:18 am ET

Ann's words and heart are empty. She is neither a Christian nor a conservative. She and the GOP merely have a co-dependent relationship.

Cathleen   March 1st, 2009 11:18 am ET

In response to comments like this one from Superferret and others: "They are witnessing a ground swell of conservative opposition to the odious state of affairs in Washington."

I love how you conservatives act like you're rebelling against the status quo. The current government has just begun. The "odious state of affairs in Washington" has resulted from 8 years of rule by an idiot figurehead who was controlled by a bunch of selfish, greedy politicians, lobbyists and businessmen. Wake up. The people in power now are trying to change things. Why don't you get your head out of the sand, open your eyes, and help fix things?

charliek92   March 1st, 2009 11:18 am ET

I'm sure this comment will not get through the CNN moderators ... they never do ... but here goes.
Yes, Ann Coulter is a blowhard who says many stupid and hateful things. Rush is in it for the ratings, he's an entertainer.
But ... how are they any different than liberal commentators like Rachael Maddow and Keith Olbermann? Both of those twits behave exactly like Coulter and Limbaugh, only from the other side of the aisle.

Jim   March 1st, 2009 11:18 am ET

MSNBC is a joke....maddow olberman and matthews are on a planet of their own and it sure as hell isn't earth

she can be too conservative, but these jokes are spot on

Reagan   March 1st, 2009 11:17 am ET

Well, from all the libs' comments, it is clear that Ann Coulter really hit a nerve. Poor libs cannot handle it when anyone speaks the truth about them!!

Wayne   March 1st, 2009 11:17 am ET

Nothing more to say. THE GOP IS DONE.

Michael   March 1st, 2009 11:17 am ET

You liberal idiots make me laugh. You criticize Coulter and Limbaugh, but praise Maher and Olbermann. Get and life, get off the pipe, and get off welfare you leftists morons.

All liberals love Obama because they are waiting for they're handout. Well get in line with the rest of the liberal crack-smokers

Jennifer DiIorio   March 1st, 2009 11:17 am ET

I'm really happy with the way conservatives are handling this change of power in Washington. Picking a drug addict and a woman who looks and sounds likes she's one bad needle away from a heroin overdose is exactly what I was hoping for. The ravings of these lunatics might further strengthen the resolve of those on the far right, but true moderates are tired of being pushed into this all or nothing choice. I encourage the Republicans to keep pandering to their rabid, insane and hateful base. After all, that's why they lost control in the first place.

Also, please keep Ms. Coulter away from Mr. Limbaugh after he's made a trip to his medicine cabinet. He could easily confuse her for a smallish meal and by the time her death shrieks alerted him to his mistake I fear it would already be too late. I would be devastated if the Republicans lost either of these shining stars (at least until after 2012).

mike06   March 1st, 2009 11:17 am ET

It makes me laugh how angry the liberals in here take their hate out on Coulter and Limbaugh. Focus on your own party. It obvious that obama will drive the country into the ground in a matter of time. Get ready for Palin2012!

Theda Zaretsky   March 1st, 2009 11:16 am ET

Your little bff annie is neither "beautiful" or "successful". She is a known liar and whiner who tries to rewrite history. Google her and her tirade about joe mccarthy and his witchhunt years. See what she had the gall to say about 9/11 widows.

Eric in CT   March 1st, 2009 11:15 am ET

I feel sorry for those who think this was just a funny comic routine. The scariest thing about people like Coulter and Rush is they BELIEVE the venom they are spewing. Bust that Being said you know what the best way is to deal with them? Ignore and shut off your TVs, Radios, Etc. Do not give them the time of day. Because Ladies and Gentlemen: They are not worth the digits on your clock radio.

Lynda/Minnesot   March 1st, 2009 11:15 am ET

Looks as if Ann is a bit upset that the news media is calling out all the "distortions" of the Conservative movement (most recently, Jindal's speech referencing something that never happened). It's not as if Palin, Gingrich, Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Reilly and the others haven't had a chance to rant and rave on Fox News for the past 20 years. When lie's and distortion's are aired, who's fault is it again?

Independent America   March 1st, 2009 11:15 am ET

She always has this preoccupation with sex and Obama. All of her comments. Trying to play on the black man going after a white woman all the time. These are the type of woman that were the liars that got Black men lynched by playing to racist whte men's fears. It is no surprise that she is trying to get him more hated by playing to interracial relationships which for White Southern men is a great fear. Obama is happily married. Imagine that she a conservative, those great protectors of marriage is trying to start adulterous rumors. What a horrible woman! White men don't even understand that they are being played.

C. Paulette McDowell, MT   March 1st, 2009 11:15 am ET

We finally have a President that is intelligent, kind, strong yet flexible, willing to admit we have a problem and willing to search for solutions within our nation. We might even be able to command some respect from foreign nations again. I wish all of America would rally around these thoughts and support our new leader. He is not lazy and he asks other persons of government to work at their jobs....what a concept!!!!
I don't consider him a "Jesus" but I certainly think with the help of our great God above he will help "save" America as a nation.
Respectfully submitted,
C. Paulette McDowell,MT(ASCP)

chase   March 1st, 2009 11:14 am ET

Superferret: do you recommend that Rush & Ann also seek professional help? Their careers have been based on being mean-spirited and partisan. Their prideful and ignorant attacks on Obama and all things "liberal" displays their true character.

Thank you CNN! Please keep Limbaugh, Coulter, Jindal, and Palin on your front page as the face of the Republican party. We know how much they helped out in November. More Palin I say! Toss in some Glenn Beck too. Americans have short memories. Please keep these folks and their comments in the news every single day for the next 4 years! Thanks again CNN! Jindal/Palin 2012!!

Fatima   March 1st, 2009 11:14 am ET

Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh are role models of the GOP and the reason why people like me stay away from GOP, and wonder how good, hard-working people can be swayed by them. She talks pure trash sometimes (Have yu heard her talk about 9/11 families of victims)?

Roy   March 1st, 2009 11:13 am ET

It's obvious reading all these comments that this a fair and balanced site!

Scared   March 1st, 2009 11:13 am ET

I'm 18 years old and I am scared stiff at the future that is to come. If any of you are taking Coulter seriously, you need to wake up. It's a joke, nothing bigger. Seeing McCain and Palin and other Republican's getting ripped on all election is ok. Seeing them get chastised and berated for no good reason is ok just because they are Republican.
You are the type of people that have made the country the way it is. You have no idea what it takes to turn this country around and it seems that you are willing to do nothing about it. What is this that Republican's only care about the rich and gaining power? I'm conservative, but ask the people that I've worked on Reservations with. There is so much hate and anger on these boards, I hope that my generation will be able to dig ourselves out of the huge holes that you guys are going to put us in. After we are in a trillion more dollars of debt after the American people fail the government again, your generation will be gone and we will be left to pick up the pieces. I can't believe I'm saying this to some people, but Laugh, cheer up! Learn to love and respect one another rather than bashing each other using generalities towards one another. This is what Obama was talking about, we move forward as one country, not as Democrats and "stupid conservatives" We will go nowhere until we truly move forward together. This depresses the heck out of me as I have a glimpse into the world I'm about to go into.

Aaron   March 1st, 2009 11:13 am ET

You know what the overall problem is with the Republican Party? People like Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh ruin the REAL Republicans' perspectives and views. I myself am a liberal, gay, young voter from the Northeast; this does not mean, however, that I dismiss the ideas of the Republican Party. Ann and Rush ultra-polarize their party when there are undoubtedly less fanatic Republicans out there with genuine interest in helping our nation alongside the Democrats. Is their voice heard, the Arlen Specters, Olympia Snowes, etc. who want to cooperate? No, not often enough...and when it does, people like Rush and Ann lambast them for being traitors.

Liberals say the Republican Party is on its deathbed, that the group is out of touch with 'real' Americans. I beg to differ...the problem is that the Republican Party's TRUE voice has been silenced by extremists who wish to rule by a message of hate, fear, and distrust rather than cooperation, understanding, and openmindedness. I may not agree with many traditional Republican views, but that does not mean that I don't believe in finding a middle ground! Ronald Reagan would be appalled. This isn't about who believes in what, it's about how we can reach a COMMON goal of bringing back our nation to its feet. That answer leaves no room for the bigotry and small-minded, vicious, and ignorant rhetoric of people like Rush and Ann. If I were a Republican, I would be completely appalled (and terrified!) that my party supported such dangerous and viciously hateful extremists, just as I would be equally appalled if this happened in the Democratic Party.

So says our founding doctrine – God blesses freedoms, like free speech...but tell me where it says God blesses hatred? I may not be a religious person, but I sure as heck know that true Christians don't look like a hypocritical, self-inflated radio host preaching fear and a hideously vicious, spiteful pundit supporting intolerance.

Doubting Thomas   March 1st, 2009 11:13 am ET

The best remedy for a party on its death-bed after losng horribly- why...the winning party. Winning parties self-destruct. That's how our system works. This one seesm to be on that path more quickly than any other.

Selling hope is wonderful. But if you cannot deliver...can anyone say Jimmy Carter?

slewis   March 1st, 2009 11:12 am ET

Rush Limbaugh should marry Ann Coulter. Thay could have a number of tasmanian devils, show empathy for the octomom & leave the rest of us the hell alone. They both make me sick.

Joe   March 1st, 2009 11:12 am ET

I truly believe Ann Coulter is a shining example of what is wrong with "journalism" in this country. To be fair, their are those on the left who also are not great examples, but she is BY FAR this worst.

I truly believe that she should have saved the title Godless for her own autobiography.

mike06   March 1st, 2009 11:11 am ET

Coulter is right on the money! I'm proud of her for speaking the truth and putting the media and the liberals on their heels. I look forward to hearing more from her. Oh yeah.. her new book 'Guilty' is a great read.

Don   March 1st, 2009 11:10 am ET

I consider myself more in the middle when it comes to politics and will admit that I thought Hillary Clinton was far more to the center and would have made a better President than Obama or McCain. That said, after watching CPAC yesterday, I am more in Obama court than ever. No new idea's, just the same old hate and mockery. Coulter and Rush are dangerous...actually rather narrow minded in fact. I may vote for a Republican one day...but not one that teaches hate.

Suzie M.   March 1st, 2009 11:09 am ET

Tell that tiresome woman to go home. She, along with Rush and Newt, are dragging the Republican Party down.

Mark   March 1st, 2009 11:09 am ET

Wasn't is just a few months ago that the media was so relentless in criticizing the president that it hated America? Now a couple of months later the roles switch as if the last 8 years never happened.

P.S. to the conservative freakshow in Washington: It's much easier to sleep at night and just be able to live with yourself if you can acknowledge the truth.

T-Money   March 1st, 2009 11:09 am ET

"Lighten up libs, it was just a comedy routine"? You mean, like the Palin comedy routine you offered up last November? Great; keep it coming! I'm not gonna complain, I'm a Democrat !! LOL

FGD   March 1st, 2009 11:09 am ET

Listern to the dim-o-crats. Spewing hate at people but calling others full of hate. Typical of what they do, always blaming someone else and pointing fingers to take the heat off themselves.

I love to see dim-o-crats react to Ann and Rush you can tell when they hit a nerve.

As someone else commented it's ok to make fun of a Republican but make one joke about Barry and the hate comes roaring out.

A tired American   March 1st, 2009 11:09 am ET

With the likes of Limbaugh, Hannity, Gingrich, and Coulter advising and leading the Republicans we have the Four Horsemen mentioned in the Bible. Hopefully the Second Coming will get here before the Republicans can regain control of the government and carry out the wishes of the above mentioned Four (headless, as in brainless) Horsemen.

Jim   March 1st, 2009 11:08 am ET

Ann Coulter is pathetic. She knows how to push people's buttons and makes good money doing it. She clearly hates the majority of Americans. I suspect she was physically or sexually abused growing up...

L. L. Hutchison   March 1st, 2009 11:08 am ET

Anne Coulter, a transvestite yet to come out. Come on people, take a good look. Ahhhhhhhh now!! Now you see it! Smoke & Mirrors, thats the GOP strategy and it all starts with the most vocal blowhards. When you take a good look at the rottweilers of any group it's ironic they have the most to hide. Honk if you love and follow Transvestites!! Heh.

Pel   March 1st, 2009 11:08 am ET

Oh how the right wing love her, which is great for them. This further enhance the KKK adittude she and the right wing has. She and Rush are great eye openers for america. I hope they keep doing what they are doing. The USA public will soon destroy them with their political ideas.

Heywood Usumi   March 1st, 2009 11:08 am ET

The simple fact is that liberals and the ignorant left wing crazies can dish it out but sure can't take it when they are on the receiving end. Just like the school ground bullies when you give them their own medicine they can only shout and bluster before slinking off into the night like thieves.

Roderick   March 1st, 2009 11:08 am ET

The reason Ann Coulter delivered a bunch of one liners is because she is a joke. I can see it now, President Palin and Vice President Coulter, we would be laughing all the way into the hands of the Chineese. I think the only way to top that would be have Rush as secretary of state, they could all pop pain pills and spew hate at 80% of Americans with one liners and cocktail parties.

change in America   March 1st, 2009 11:08 am ET

The Republican is doomed .....After hearing Rush and Ann , Jindal this Republican party sound like some cry baby and taken American for granted people are loseing jobs, home healthcare and they on live tv cracking jokes...............>>>>>>>>>> Vote Republicans out the office 2010 .........................No More Republicans in 2010

This is awesome, all they need are red arm-bands and the horror show is complete. I'm not sure how many people really perceive how racist and anti-semetic Coulter is. Maybe Palin didn't attend to prove she "LOVES ISRAEL" just as much as Jeebus. What American "conservatives" forget is that the only real political and fiscal conservative to run in the past 16 years (McCain... whom... without Palin I *may* have voted for) was hijacked and buried by his own team. This team... a group of self serving fascists primed for Mussolini's Italy and as extreme as the Taleban.

Charleston   March 1st, 2009 11:06 am ET

Diane   March 1st, 2009 11:04 am ET

Ann Coulter has nothing else to offer but hate. She profits from it. I guess we all must survive. Sadly, this is her gift and contribution to the world.

Tari Torch Sweeney - Shaker Heights, OH   March 1st, 2009 11:04 am ET

Please.

The reason that this continues is because the media gives play to these people – Limbaugh, Romney, the Republicans, who are upset at their major loss, Ann Coulter. These are all right wing fanatics. Enough already. If he doesn't do the job, fire him out of office in 2012. End of story. But, he was voted in by a majority, and therefore should be given the chance to succeed without all the crazies leaving their caves. (this would also include Palin). Stop with the whining and griping. It is boring and hurtful, as well as destructive (and probably self-destructive for the Repubs – that may be a good thing...they are shooting themselves in BOTH feet) It's tiresome.

Jamie from Philly   March 1st, 2009 11:04 am ET

What happened with republican party of limited government and fiscal conservatism? They turned into gun loving, gay hating, Christian fundamentalists, anti abortion, lets reduce taxes of the wealthiest 1 percent party. This is why I voted Obama in last elections. Could you please stop be a party of the conservative south with no progresive ideas. A party of fox news and people like coulter so I can take a republican candidate into consideration for 2012 election.

Excuse me, excuse me, "da", I believe your name is, down there:

You left a comment asking why liberals feel they have to name call people who disagree with them..

Get real.

Ray   March 1st, 2009 11:03 am ET

I can`t pay attention to Ann. Trying to become a perfected Jew is a full time job.
If this wasn`t so sad that these people continue to drink the Kool-Aid after Bush it would be funny.
Obama is for big government? Maybe. But if I recall, GW oversaw the largest increase in spending and government since WW2.
Please continue to stand on the platform of smaller government while going in the opposite direction. Apparantly the GOP is simply the party of the hypocritical.
There was a time I was a Republican. Sadly, I didn`t leave the GOP...the GOP left me!

After eight years of the Bush policies that put the country in the state it is in, a Presidential campaign filled with hate, fear mongering, divisiveness and it continues with people like Ann Coulture and Rush Limbaugh....Then Republican posters write how Democrats must be afraid . YEAH !!! Democrats are afraid that there are still people out there that don't get it. Unfortunately it is the Republican party. It is so sad that they still believe in divisiveness , all the while whining and criticizing the Democrats for the very thing they have been doing during this conference. Yeah Democrats are scared and so should the rest of America if these people think they can lead lead the country. Where have they been during the past eight years, Oh, that's right, they have been blaming Democrats for everything wrong with the country.

Santa Fean   March 1st, 2009 11:01 am ET

Rush and Coulter. Not a wonder why the Republicans are in such horrible shape. A fat drug addict and a women who can't get a date. Both of these entertainers can not get anyone to live with them. Does that tell you anything? When the Republicans/Conservatives can move beyond having entertainers as "leadesr" then they might get a clue. As a Conservative, who had no choice but to vote for Obama, it is sad to see what the Republicans have become. What base do they have? Dittoheads.

Dee Horner   March 1st, 2009 11:01 am ET

Its always funny to me, and I have always been a registered Republican, how "conservatives" always think they are correct in everything they say, do and spew. If they're so darn smart and correct, then after 8 years of them in office, why are we in the dumpster?

2010 -   March 1st, 2009 11:00 am ET

Pat M Canada   March 1st, 2009 11:00 am ET

Coulter would be perfect for "Tim the Tool Man." It's more than obvious she has a few screws loose and Tim could certainly use the practice!

David   March 1st, 2009 11:00 am ET

Wow. Texting. Is that the worst they can come up with? Let the Republicans say all they want. It's barely been two months. The critics have no ground yet and are only looking foolish and hack with the corny jokes. They seem to forget who got the country into this mess in the first place. Yes, the country needs change because the old guard wasn't cutting it or showing signs of changing their game plan. They don't like Obama's plan but still can't come up with anything themselves.

My previous President did an overall horrible job. I want to see what my new President can do

Dee Horner   March 1st, 2009 10:59 am ET

Ann Coulter spews nothing but toxic waste and tries to incite riots. She adds nothing to the discussion. She adds nothing to the debate on how to fix this country. And trust me, it needs fixing. She is and has always been "part of the problem". She will never be part of the solution. Toxic waste. That's all she is.

Sarah, Northern Colorado   March 1st, 2009 10:59 am ET

*Shrugs* If the GOP want Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh to be the media-related voices for their party, and Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann to be the political voices, let 'em. Just makes those of us on the left laugh at them that much harder.

I understand Ms. Coutler has to speak the way she does in order to get audiences. She is even entertaining at times. However, isn't this all too soon to campaign for 2012? We just elected a new president. Let's give him a chance so nobody cries foul in 2012.

Navy Veteran from Charlottesville, Virginia   March 1st, 2009 10:58 am ET

Yeah, Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh... the "face" of the Republican Party... pathetic pair of disgusting people..

Ohnoes   March 1st, 2009 10:58 am ET

Superferret:

"Their prideful and ignorant attacks on CPAC and the speakers displays their true character"

You do understand that Ann Coulter does the same thing correct? I have watched many of her interviews and she is not only arrogant, but also has no concern for bipartisan politics. So let me ask you why should we the non-conservatives really try and be nice to a woman who would spew such an equal amount of ignorance?

The fact that you support some of the garbage that comes out of her mouth shows very little of YOUR character.

Martizmo   March 1st, 2009 10:58 am ET

can any of these people identify with the common folk. When was the last time any of those people made less then $100,000 a year. When was the last time they had to make tough decisions about buying food for their family or skipping a medical bill payment? These people are in la la land.

Keep on talking Coulter- with Limbaugh & yourself as poster children for the RNC, the Democrats will have nothing to fear. Yep- keep on talking. I just love it when you two step up to the microphone. There is NOTHING the Democrats could ever come up with that could equal the negative publicity you give to your own party.

Marine Vet   March 1st, 2009 10:57 am ET

If Ann would put all that time and energy towards activities that help solve our countries current problems and be a leader by example in that light of hope, we could all admire her for the effort. She's good at getting media attention and believes she is helping the country, but her negative approaches only make the people who truly love this country shake their heads! Come on Ann! I want to believe that you can do more for our country with your media popularity then just run down what you don't like about who the majority of people in our beloved country have voted for to run it...

Hopeful   March 1st, 2009 10:57 am ET

Lest we forget, it was the conservative agenda that got us into this mess in the first place. Ms. Coulter and Mr. Limbaugh seem clueless as to that fact. Which in my mind really means they are only entertainers, not leaders. And not very good ones at that.

BJ   March 1st, 2009 10:57 am ET

There's a couple of hundred comments on this article, mostly by liberals, and a large portion of them are some of the most vile, nasty, disrespectful comments I've ever seen. This sounds like a bunch of 12 year olds calling names. Try being civil and a lot more of your comments might be taken seriously. From your comments, I'd say there's a lot more hate on the liberal side than the conservative. Your comments will drive many away from the Democratic party (not me, I left along time ago).
It appears that you think that freedom of speech is only for people who agree with the drivel and false promises coming out of Washingtom today.
Ann Coulter is a great entertainer, and if you people could see past what you percieve to be blashemy to your messiah, you might enjoy some of that entertainment.
As for me, you make me sick,. Enjoy your 13 bucks a week of "stimuluous) you bunch of hairy backed loosers, and when the koolaid is gone, and your empty suit is out of ideas, I will proudly say I told you so. In the mean time blow it out your arses. (That felt really good for a moment to lower myself to your level)

Tom   March 1st, 2009 10:56 am ET

I guess it is consistent that GOP conservatives adore eye candy that says nothing.

OF course God help us all if they actually lack the critical reasoning skills to see the absurdity of her statements, I mean there could be people in the audience nodding thoughtfully at her verbal diarreah, and if those people were ever put ina position of power we would....

... be where we are now....

I never know what to do with Coulter. She's as funny as Stephen Colbert, she's not as hot as brittany spears so i can't just put her on mute and watch and her statements lack credibility like pretty much EVERYONE on TV.

Maybe I will just watch and hope to catch that decompensation moment when her BPD driven schema collapses in on itself in spectacular fashion.

I mean i'd never wish it on anyone but if she's gonna make a spectacle of herself I might as well watch....

Diane   March 1st, 2009 10:56 am ET

If a person has nothing to actually offer or sell, they profit by selling hate. Ann actually has nothing else to offer. She is selling what people are willing to buy. It's easy to sell hate and anger today because this country is in deep trouble.

Renee in St. Pete   March 1st, 2009 10:56 am ET

Honestly.....................who even really listen's to the Republican Party anymore???!!! It is already a non-relevent party. And really, Repulicans need to realize that all of you are being played by both Ann and Rush. They are simply laughing all the way to the bank with your money!!! Nobody outside of your party even listen's to them, but all of you do. What have they done for your party? Exploiting all of you so they can cash a check. You only have yourselves to blame! Isn't it funny that Ann Coulter has dated a Muslim man (yes the same people that caused 9/11-not all but the radical ones. And yes, he is a radical) and most of the men she has dated are Democrats...the same people she has distain for. Rush, that is almost to easy! He too had a housekeeping scandal with employment and she provided him with Viagra (according to him!). So please, you are know as a dishonest, deceiving party starting with stealing the election in 2000 and so it is only fitting that you have been reduced to nothing more than a punch line. Then you gave us the ultimate entertainment....Sarah Palin! Then you think you are breaking ground by electing a black man to run the RNC and he is proving to be nothing but a tool!! So keep trying to be something that you are not............DEMOCRATS!!!!

chris   March 1st, 2009 10:56 am ET

Say what you will about Coulter, she's still one of the funniest men the Republicans have in their corner.

Unshrub   March 1st, 2009 10:55 am ET

Obviously, the republicans must agree with her since they invited her to speak and she is without doubt one of the biggest liars in America. This is how they want to rebuild themselves? The more she talks the more votes she looses. Keep it up because they way the conservatives are going they will loose in 2010 and 2012.

Diane Dagenais Turbide   March 1st, 2009 10:55 am ET

Keep it up this way and we can only thank all of you for not changing or for not learning from your mistakes!
Republicans want to take their country back...take what back and from whom...take it back from the last eight years and keep producing the same mess and giving people the same rhetoric, the same B.S.. Pathetic and not even close to represent the true but renewed conservatism!

JMB   March 1st, 2009 10:54 am ET

EIGHT YEARS! Your side had this country in the palm of your hand for EIGHT FRIGGIN' YEARS!

What are you guys so angry at liberals for? Obama didn't create this mess–the conservatives in the White House and Congress had an opportunity to prevent it or at least minimize it and you failed MISERABLY! So excuse us if we don't exactly jump onto your bandwagon–especially when it means sharing a bench with propagandists like Coulter.

rubytopaz   March 1st, 2009 10:54 am ET

She said it was interesting that Obama’s “adorers” in the media compare him to Lincoln and Ronald Reagan, because, “apparently they can’t think of a Democratic president worthy of being compared to.”

Funny, the person who gets the biggest applause and standing ovations at Cpac is a racist and bigot (Rush Limbaugh). How on God's green earth do repubs/conservaties expect to appeal to the hip hop crowd as Steele stated with hate mungers like that leading the way. Rhetoric like how beautiful the flag is and strong the constitution ain't gonna get it when people are suffering.. These people better get some everyday Americans in their lives. Then Coulter called President Obama's victory a meager 56 to 46 percent victory. Almost 10 million votes and she said meager??? Good luck with your strategy of winning back the country.

jonathon   March 1st, 2009 10:52 am ET

Karin   March 1st, 2009 10:51 am ET

It occurs to me that acoulter's extreme views on the world around her is instep with her so called conservative values but startling contradicts any true christian beliefs. By her standards, single unwed mothers are the a blithe on society and she infuses her conservatism to justify her hateful views on the subject. So that being said, I would hazard a guess that in Mary's day, Anne Coulter would have been the first to pick up a stone.

Jesus placed in the womb of a single unwed teenage mother to become our saviour – not all children of unwed mothers end up in prison darlin'.

Lena Q   March 1st, 2009 10:50 am ET

Funny how some leaders the Republican Party call Obama's victory "mediocre" when it translated to over 8 and half million votes. That's more than 12 times the population of the vast frozen wasteland that puked out Governor Palin.

Imagine how many more votes Obama would have received if the uneducated knew he was NOT a Muslim and WAS born an American citizen?

Funny how the Republicans didn't harp on the fact that "their boy" W actually lost the popular vote in 2000.

Their leaders are coming off like sore losers, and are doing more and more to encourage the moderates to abandon the GOP completely.

And Ann Coulter, despite likely having a penis, is nothing more than a female body part beginning with C. That's from the heart, people. She is irrelevant.

Rat   March 1st, 2009 10:50 am ET

Boomer   March 1st, 2009 10:49 am ET

Ann does not always use the correct words but she gets it right every time. Sara Palin was hammered by the press but VP Biden or Speaker Polosi say the most stupid things (phone number for a web site, bridge to small business, 500 million jobs lost every month) but no mentions in the mainstream media or skits on Saturday Night Live. Way to go Ann!!!!!!

They should make a perfect couple. Call them witchdaugh

GOP victim   March 1st, 2009 10:49 am ET

No one fears Ann Coulter becuase she is stupid. She has no influence over anyone and spews her hate to all her moronic followers. She should just go away and hid under a rock. Maybe Sarah Palin and her are twins born from Satan.

matthew   March 1st, 2009 10:48 am ET

I do wish her too continue spewing her rhetoric. This idiot weakens the GOP everytime she shows up. I swear she would do her best work on a chrome pole with a low-lit stage, but some people keep taking her seriously. She is awesome! I actually thought the Republicans bribed her to go into hiding. Great to see you back Annie.

Garp   March 1st, 2009 10:48 am ET

Says more about the GOP that they need someone like her to get it up ...

Steve   March 1st, 2009 10:48 am ET

Brad hit ball right on with ihs comment that, "The fact that I came home on a beautiful saturday afternoon to see an exclusive and lengthy live broadcast of Limbaugh's speech on CNN made me wonder if CNN has lost what was left of its journalistic creed...CNN you need to decide if you are part of the problem or part of the solution, it only takes a few seconds."

I am definitely loosing my appetite with the way CNN has been covering political garbage. Please stick to what millions of American and viewers throughout the world want honest reporting free from propaganda. I am really starting to wonder whether CNN prefers controversy than meaningful reporting that affects us all.

oserd   March 1st, 2009 10:48 am ET

Lets face it , her lines are funny - almost as much so as dumocratic policy!

donna   March 1st, 2009 10:47 am ET

Who cares what she says?
The sooner the GOP gets some persons with intellect and ideas to speak for and represent them the better because it is important to have serious relevant contribution from both sides.
She's just a clown in plain clothes.

Pia   March 1st, 2009 10:46 am ET

Ann Coulter is a big fat liar. She gives the liberal, independent woman a bad name.

Ed   March 1st, 2009 10:45 am ET

And Ann...bitterness is so not in!

Ed   March 1st, 2009 10:45 am ET

Let her and Rush continue to be the voice of the party...all 32% of the country that believe this is the route we should take! Please, please...let them keynote at the RNC Convention! Because hey GOP - those two are examples of why you are losers!!! America is tired of them! Keep up the good work for the GOP Ann and Rush - you seal their fate!

RH, Pennsylvania   March 1st, 2009 10:45 am ET

German Irish American gets it just right. Libby Liberal boo hoos about this but didn't blink an eye at eight years of jabs at the Bush administration. What comes around goes around. Get over it. This is a "who cares?" issue.

Anonymous   March 1st, 2009 10:44 am ET

Its funny to me that the person who really gets the most applause at cpac is a obvioius racist and bigot (Rush Limbaugh). So repubs, tell me, how on God's green earth are you going to appeal to the hip hop crowd as Steele has stated with people like that in your ranks. Even non-black hip hoppers aren't fools. The two most hateful filled republicans I can think of rocks the house. Good luck.

PULEEEZZZ!! lets tell some truth   March 1st, 2009 10:44 am ET

GOP = Got No Plan .. now thats telling it like it is.. When you cant think for yourself, you attack other people who DO HAVE IDEAS .. THESE PEOPLE ARE THE SCUM OF HUMANITY! WHY DIDNT RUSH L. DO JAIL TIME FOR THE DRUGS? HERES A LAUGH: Imagine ANN C(unt) in bed with Condi R!!!! While Rushie films and does drugs!!

The fact that this crowd likes people like Ann and Rush says it all. The party of hate...the party of no. Keep it up GOP! You'll turn more people off just like when Palin was your VP pick.

J. Bowen   March 1st, 2009 10:43 am ET

German, Irish, American's earlier comments are well worth re-posting: Lighten up libs, it was a 15 minute comedy routine. You had no problem with 8 years of late night shows, especially Letterman, beating up on Bush. Remember how many of you actually thought, and maybe still do, that Palin really said 'I can see Russia from my house"? You guys all thought that was hilarious comedy by Tina Fey. But let someone make fun of a Democrat and you immediately start calling them names, haters, liars, racists, all the while you yourselves are calling Michael Steele, the new RNC chairman, an Uncle Tom, the republicans token black, and stupid for being a conservative. For the party of peace and love and tolerence for all mankind, aka, Democrats, how come the liberals of your party are always the ones to provoke violence in the U.S. with your "peace" rallies that have turned into riots and destruction of public and personal property?

politicaljunkie   March 1st, 2009 10:43 am ET

Well said, German-Irish American.

I'm sure Ann Coulter felt like this was payback time for years of nasty commentary and derision directed at George Bush from people like Keith Olbermann and Bill Maher and others you mentioned.

As you say, it is terribly ironic that the far left who pretend to be so all-inclusive and tolerant in their ideology, apparently cannot tolerate conservatives. Hypocrisy.

I believe the 2-party system is no longer effective or desirable. It's broken and I don't think it can be fixed. We need a viable third party, but I don't see it happening anytime soon.

And, just for the record, I'm not a Republican. I'm an Independent.

Atlas Hamartia   March 1st, 2009 10:43 am ET

Ahhh, America! I love it! Has anyone read David McCulloughs – John Adams? Or American Lion, or any book about Lincoln and the press. Folks, this IS America – I'm very conservative, and if Liberals ever LOSE their right to speak...we're all in trouble, and in a Big Way.
God Bless America! Michael A.

Dave   March 1st, 2009 10:42 am ET

Coulter is a talentless skank. I'd love to see her and Limbaugh get the ebola virus and bleed out on national television.

Samual Wertzbacher   March 1st, 2009 10:42 am ET

She is the prom queen of hate speech who is lucky to have not had her pants sued off for defamation.

Anyone who defends her is of poor moral character.

jeremy   March 1st, 2009 10:42 am ET

the GOP is helpless until they start coming to the table with some solutions to real issues. having people like this hack and Rush leading the way, nobody is going to take this party seriously.

rob   March 1st, 2009 10:41 am ET

why is she allowed to talk?

Mr C   March 1st, 2009 10:41 am ET

Refreshing conference. I hope the Republican Party spews out the lukewarm Republicans (centrists with right clothing) and moves back to its conservative base.

Brenda   March 1st, 2009 10:40 am ET

Just think about how many Americans shook their heads in disbelief while watching Ann & Rushy boy CPAC. If the republications think this is the way to win elections, please, please think again. They are so, so done and let's just hope and pray that Rush and the rest of these 'fools" keep this up until the 2012 elections. Obama/Biden will definitely get the 8 years they deserve!

Lennon for president   March 1st, 2009 10:40 am ET

well no wonder the GOP is in the toilet if it listens to people so mind-gratingly stupid as this...I mean the stuff that spews out of Limbaugh's and coulter's mouths is so noxious and so absolutely idiotic that it just breaches the barrier of stupidity. I mean do they even know what they're saying. It's a mixture of hypocrisy...yeah fear mongering...that's Bush's and the Gop's Modus Operandi...fear tactics, stupidity, outright lies, hatred and intolerance, and gibberish

check book facts   March 1st, 2009 10:39 am ET

The only reason her books seem to sell so well and even hit the best sellers list is not actual sales,but orders from large conservative outlets and big money politicos,its a form of fraud no body wants to talk about,but you can find it if you check the facts.Her actual sales are nowhere near her order numbers.A good friend in the publishing industry clued me in on this scam.

Kristin   March 1st, 2009 10:39 am ET

I think they need to wire her jaw back up. She was a much more pleasant "person" then.

Gregory C   March 1st, 2009 10:38 am ET

I find a sweet irony in the fact that "libs" find Coulter and Limbaugh offensive. I accept the fact that they can certainly be extreme at times just like many democrates. The irony is however, that is exactly the way conservatives feel about every word out of the mouths of Pelosi, Reid, Matthews and many others in the mainstream. I ditto your sentiments exactly, only imagine this...most conservatives oppose your viewpoints to the poplar opposite. Wouldn't the world be a great place if everyone agreed with the liberal agenda and "progressive" demise of the values we hold dear? Fortunately, we still have some great Americans who appreciate our heritage who are willing to take the heat for speaking out. Silencing your critics is UN-AMERICAN.

Greg   March 1st, 2009 10:38 am ET

You know all it takes to steal Ann's or Rush's thunder is to check out the references in their books or speeches, they are full of footnotes, etc... much the same way CNN does it's sleuthing during the campaigns to make sure that what the candidates say is truthful. Of course in the world of partisan politics here in the US, and as demonstrated in the vile comments from everyone above, its not just the politicians and pundits that create an environment where the truth depends on "what your definition of 'is' is." We truly are a nation divided... and a house divided cannot stand. I believe we represent the best of ideas and intentions, but that the road to hell is paved with good intentions. We have checks and balances, between the judicial, legislative, and executive branches of the government, but the lines become increasingly blurred as the three become the same mindset. And while it may be that for awhile one party may control the nation is such a way, that control usually doesn't last forever. Rush and Ann, and even the liberal commentators like strategist James Carville, best succeed in the environment of partisan politics, playing Devil's Advocate, but if you want to shut them down, research the references in their books, and quit reporting the hype. The truth really is much more exciting, and ultimately exposes pundits for what they really are, charlatans trying to make a buck.

z   March 1st, 2009 10:38 am ET

The more the Republic-Klan goes off the deep end only shows they are afraid....really afraid of never coming back to power. Let's help President Obama finish them once and for ALL!

my thought   March 1st, 2009 10:38 am ET

this is why i have not watched CNN TV for over two weeks because i expect nothing but G.O.P talking points and promoting Rush and such.....and i think i am done with CNN.COM

SAGG   March 1st, 2009 10:38 am ET

Kind of hypocritical for Coulter to say:

'“Having pulled off their rather mediocre 53 percent to 46 percent victory, liberals can’t stop boasting about their new baby boy,” she said.'
---–
As opposed to Bush LOSING the percentage vote to Gore in 2000, and Bush in 2004 around BARELY winning said percentage vote against Kerry. Yeah, I think some boasting is in order by the left. I guess the only time a conservative can say if President Obama has a mandate is if he wins 100% of the popular vote. Nah–they'd find something ELSE to complain about even then.

If Coulter (and some other conservatives) can gripe about President Obama using a Blackberry-type of device, then how does she explain her fellow Repubs using a device similar DURING the President's quasi-State of the Union address, which in of itself was despicably unmannerable and disrespectful of the office? You do NOT do such a thing in a setting while the President, ANY President, is speaking.

I'm sick and tired of conservatives hemming and hawing. They lost. Yes, it's hard for them to believe it, but it's true. Instead of fuming and hoping like mad that President Obama will fail (and the country, by extention), they ought to seriously examing WHY their policies failed so miserably in the past few years. Piece of advice, conservatives: Moderate your party. Push the Hard Right to the rear, gently, if you wish. The Dems had to do this, and it took quite a few years, but eventually it paid off. President Obama realizes this. He knows he can't be an extreme liberal, because it'll turn off the Indies and the Vast center of this country. He's doing just enough to appease the Hard Left without caving in to them. It's called pragmatism. Yeah, they're still complaining, but compared to President Bush, they're having it easy. President Obama's positioning himself to be a left-of-center President, which is perfect for me. Guess what? Potnetially, a Repub President could do the same thing, and become right-of-center. Bush, however, did not do so, preferring to stay Hard Right no matter what. I think this came out of fear that he would repeat the same mistakes as his dad. I think I can safely say he and his dad were NOT the same–Bush II was WORSE. MUCH worse. Better moderate yourselves, GOP, before it's too late. As long as you stay to the Hard Right, you're going to continue to lose elections, and become more irrelevant.

Rob   March 1st, 2009 10:38 am ET

Alot of bomb throwing from the liberals here, but not one good arguement or point for that matter. I guess facts have never been a liberal strong point. Capitalism has been the foundation of this country for over 200 years! It's made us the great nation that we are, brings freedom and innovation. And now, because the lazy and unsuccessful want more and more handouts, we're voting for people like Obama to give it to them, at the cost of the hard-working that is. Who are you to say we should throw that away for socialism. Wake up people. You have a choice every day of what the outcome of YOUR life is gonna be. Making the rich the bad guys is only gonna destroy their lives and not make yours better by one bit! I would dare any one of you who bad name Rush Limbaugh to just try and find one lie in the speech that he gave yesterday. ONE! He's a good man who only wants freedom from big gov't. boo-hoo, right....

Muse   March 1st, 2009 10:37 am ET

This sort of ting is Coulter's stock and trade - Limbaugh's too. Remember that first and foremost these people are entertainers. It's how they make a living. Some find them entertaining - some are foolish enough to take them at their word - some find them idiotic. But you have to admit they apply their trades well, in a targeted fashion. I find them to both be annoying, and potentially dangerous.

RICK FROM PA   March 1st, 2009 10:37 am ET

CPAC SHOULD LOSE ITS 501C STATUS. YESTERDAY'S LINEUP WITH RUSH, ANN. ETC. WAS JUST THEIR WAY OF MAKING MORE MONEY AT THE EXPENSE OF THEIR RIGHT WING FOLLOWERS.

Christo   March 1st, 2009 10:37 am ET

It is a different period of time for Obama than it was for his predecessors and on a number of points, he sets a precedent. He is for the people and does not sit on a high horse pontificating down his nose at will. His job will be hard enough without you amusing yourself by ignoring his humanity. Take these words to heart, positive energy builds and negative energy destroys.

The Blessed One   March 1st, 2009 10:37 am ET

Les   March 1st, 2009 10:35 am ET

Sometimes the truth hurts, I don't care much for Coulter but when she strikes a nerve saying it as is, that makes a lot of these so called liberals lose their heads. In fact these people who call themselves as democrats, tolerant, peace loving etc etc are the most hateful, violent groups of people, you can ask AYERS, Obamachimp mentor about socialism and how to destroy USA.

Phil   March 1st, 2009 10:33 am ET

Why does CNN and other outlets think this woman's comments qualify as news!? The more they "report" her the more attention she gets. Isn't there anything else more important going on that what this woman says? Can we please get away from the old divisive politics already

Maryann Rose   March 1st, 2009 10:33 am ET

Oh, she can't see Lincoln text messaging? Neither can I.

She does know that the technology didn't exist then, right? Neither did Scarlett Johannsen.

LOL! What an idiot!

cdoggyd   March 1st, 2009 10:33 am ET

Ann Coulter is just as irrelevant as Paris Hilton. She runs her mouth just to get press. I wish the media would stop falling into her trap and put her back under the rock she crawled out from.

scnative   March 1st, 2009 10:32 am ET

Wow! Way to go! Off to the races? Republicans, get your act together. If you don't gain control of this idiocism you will become distinct. Sanford, how about running our state instead of forgetting about our many needs and thinking only about your political future. I am being driven further and further away from the party I joined when I first signed up to vote.

Terry   March 1st, 2009 10:31 am ET

EG   March 1st, 2009 10:31 am ET

The Republican Party is a minor regional power, and if they keep trying to stand in the way of progress, they'll end up going the way of the Whigs.

Jeff from Jersey   March 1st, 2009 10:29 am ET

Text message for Coulter: You are the most vicous,negative creature on the planet.You and Limbaugh ought to mate and we'll send your off-spring to Iran as a gift.

Crawl back under your rock.

T   March 1st, 2009 10:29 am ET

What's truly funny (or sad) is that I sincerely doubt that Rush and Coulter even believe a lot of what they are saying. They just realize that majority of their constituents will believe everything they say and follow it to the letter. For Rush to say things like "Obama's favorite word is community, and the root word is commune" – he knows that all he is doing is getting uneducated voters fired up and believing that Obama is a communist.

Barbara   March 1st, 2009 10:28 am ET

Why are so many Dems weighing in on the CPAC, Coulter and Limbaugh?? You Dems need to clean up your own mess that is now in the WH. We are all going to be in the poor house by the time BO, NP and HR gets thru with their "tax & spend" plans. NP said she would raise taxes faster and higher. So all you DEMS hold onto your hats and get ready for the poor house. You will soon wish we had a Republican in the WH.
You dems are such a sorry lot, you actually believed BO when he said he would make changes, have you looked lately? He has surrounded himself with nothing but the old dems left in DC plus some that he is pulling in from the midwest, KS. He is for abortion, and so many other things that are too numerous to list.

Richard Gross   March 1st, 2009 10:28 am ET

Coulter and her crowd have run this country since 1981 and, but for the wealthy, ran it into the ground. Now something good this way has come, replacing the wicked. Coulter's barbs are meaningless.

The jealousy of the conservative GOP is showing up in every comment they make against Obama. I have not seen any progressive agenda in any criticism they have against Obama administration. having a pretty face is not enough Ms. Coulter! havingsome grey matter is very important.

Zach   March 1st, 2009 10:28 am ET

Although he was a Republican, Lincoln's views today would identify with the Democratic Party, not the Republican Party.

Jane   March 1st, 2009 10:28 am ET

Ann Coulter and Rush are the best duo for abolishing the Rebpublicans. They expose themselves for who they are. Good! Keep it up! Best thing they could do.

renee   March 1st, 2009 10:27 am ET

why is the media not commenting on what Coulter and pig face said about McCain?

Gracie   March 1st, 2009 10:26 am ET

Of course she does. Without her "mouth piece", what would Ann be doing? NO one would listen or care about this schmuck!! People like Ann and Rush are nothing but LOUD MOUTHS, they don't have any expertise in anything they claim to be an expert in. Isn't that funny?

Has Rush Limbaugh or Ann Coulter ever been elected into public office?

Has Rush or Ann ever ran or managed a Fortune 500 Corporation?

Has Rush or Ann ever been Secretary of State?

Has Rush or Ann ever been President of the United States?

Is Rush or Ann a certified EXPERT in the medical or psychiatric fields? (Well, Rush is definitely American's favorite expert pill-popping drug addict, and Ann is an expert in being an anorexic blonde bimbo)

AND yet these two fumbling idiots have the audacity to go around diagnosing everyone else but themselves!! Rush himself is nothing more than a PILL-POPPING drug addict. Why Americans are so desperate to believe his garbage as valid or factual is truly unbelievable. It's not wonder people around the world think Americans are stupid and can't think for themselves. When you have thousands of Americans listening to a man who who sits inside a 6×9 windowed box and does nothing but "trash and bash" and America pays him millions, you have to wonder who are the suckers here?

Same scenario when it comes to Ann Coulter. Without her "trailer trash book", she's a NOBODY. NO one cares what this woman thinks or says. She's just another "BIG MOUTH" bashing and trashing others to make HERSELF relevant. LOL.

I bet if the media dug deep into Ann's personal background, we would find out that this woman is nothing but a "hoax" wanting attention from WHITE men who spew hate and racial bias across the country. Ever ask yourself WHY isn't ANN married or a mother? Exactly. She's too focused on being another Rush Limbaugh in a skirt!! This is all an ACT by Ann Coulter, she wants attention by all those WHITE racist men, because any normal, intelligent man would see right through Ann Coulter's true agenda. Ann is all Ann, she wants the CELEBRITY STATUS and someone to listen to her.

The CPAC event sounded and look to me like just another political KKK rally. Despite the fact they pandered their new "token black" RNC Chairman Micheal Steele. What a joke. Micheal Steele is NOT going to change the WHITE RACIST RNC. Are you El'LOCO? The RNC has a LONG history of segregation and racial bigotry. Pandering Micheal Steele is NOT going to change that despicable history. It will take more than Micheal Steele that's for sure.

The RNC just proved they continue to be the party of "exclusion and racial sentiments" . Shameful.

How delusional can WHITE AMERICA be?

JK Wilson   March 1st, 2009 10:26 am ET

CL   March 1st, 2009 10:26 am ET

The power in the majority generally benefits when the opposition party becomes dominated by a vocal lunatic fringe. Limbaugh and Coulter are playing right in to the hands of the democrats. The republicans who understand this are not yet influential. The chances are high that 2010 will bring the democrats a 60 or more majority in the senate. At this point the democrats will say something like "Since you chose obstruction when we gave you a chance to participate, why should you have any say now." If the republicans don't figure it out soon, they are really going to have some stuff to rail about. At least the socialist/communinist accusations are giving them bigger fish to fry than the social conservative hate-mongoring stuff.

Don of Iowa   March 1st, 2009 10:26 am ET

I love how out of touch and how little conservatives know of history. Yes it is true Lincoln was a republican but what they do not say is that the republican party was the liberal party prior to the depression. When you consider where the Republican party was in the days of Lincoln he would have voted for Obama and against McCain. This is how illiterate these morons are, they do not even know their own history. The last of the liberal republicans was Teddy Roosevelt, the first of the major conservative Republicans was Herbert Hoover, ring any bells? On the other hand the Democrats were the conservative party during the times of the liberal republicans, the last of the conservative democrats was Woodrow Wilson and the first of the liberal democrats was Franklin Roosevelt, both parties did a 180 duting the first part of this century so to here these clowns going on about Linclon is like hearing democrats going on about GW Bush, they do not have a clue to their true roots or history. Please moronic republicans if you are going to try and talk like you know what is going on at least know your history, anyone who has been to college and has taken political history kows these facts. But then I guess there is the problem, it is truly hard to find a republican who has ever gone through High School let alone college, sheesh, what a bunch of morons.

zaphod2000   March 1st, 2009 10:26 am ET

limbaugh, palin, huckabee, mcnasty, coulter, jindal . . . . . to think that supposedly intelligent people follow or listen to anyone of them is very scary.
Next time coulter opens her mouth she needs to put some food in it. She's a sick looking blonde repug bimbo.

jack   March 1st, 2009 10:25 am ET

As a 62 year old student of world history – I have but two words for the Limbaugh talk:
Sig Heil
Sig Heil

It reminded me so much of the old Nazi films of Hitler addressing his minions and them adoring and cheering.

Thanks to the likes of Coulter and Limbaugh they have gone well beyond the edge of reason.

CJS   March 1st, 2009 10:25 am ET

If the Republican's are going to look to the likes of Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh for leadership, there is no doubt that Obama will be a 2 term President. The American people turned their backs on GW Bush's & the GOP policies, much of which got us into the mess we are in now. Let these people talk...the majority of the American people already saw through their line of BS. The GOP is full of sore losers and the more they "talk" the better it will be for this country because the change we demanded will continue. Let the GOP continue to cry over spilled milk.

REG in AZ   March 1st, 2009 10:24 am ET

The Evil of Extremism: White Supremacists, Nazism, bin Ladenism, Limbaughism, ,, all characterized by self-proclaimed righteousness, open or disguised hatred of others, egotism, self-indulgence, excused gross dishonesty, rationalized and exaggerated self-protection, feelings that more is owed them, aristocratic style arrogance, proclaimed absolute authority and more, all being examples of a warped self-centered, sociopathic philosophy that seeks to falsely justify suppressing some while elevating themselves. The doctrine is promoted by charismatic leaders using twisted arguments to create enthusiasm in crowds seeking to belong. The cure: a large dose of humility, an openness to all others, an adapting of honest objectivity, a patience with reality, an acceptance of own fallibility, an understanding of fitting in instead of presiding over, disciplined moderation and a faith that is real in recognizing and accepting everyone’s equal value under God. Extremism will always eventually bring down the society that incorporates it but in the process it will cause drastic harm and severe injustice – it is a sickness.

Jim   March 1st, 2009 10:23 am ET

Move on...... nothing to see here. Coulter and Limbaugh are characters - not serious commentators on the state of our nation or our economy. Unfortunately, Obama's victory means that they will be in the spotlight for the next 8 years.

floridakaye   March 1st, 2009 10:23 am ET

Ann Coulter is a media celebrity who makes a good living off her schtick...but as a political analyst she's a joke... guess that's why the Republican base love her so much. Because she uses that shallow, slapstick, nasty and often totally fabricated line of attack that they eat up like ice cream on a hot summer day.

What I don't get it how she manages to get SO much airtime (and website space). She (and Rush) are media celebrities who don't really care about a meaningful, civil and informed debate – so why do so many seem to believe that their spewing is worthy of so much coverage? I don't mind listening to solid Republican political analysis (Mike Murphy, Alex C) but puh-lease – these others folks are just a joke.

Tyler from Wisconsin   March 1st, 2009 10:22 am ET

As a young conservative, I am proud to see leaders of the conservative movement pushing back. No longer will the conservatives allow oursleves to be pushed around without voicing our opinion. The liberal media, liberal agenda and the Democrates have instilled fear in to the American people. The liberals and Democrates have refused to respect conservative views and it is time Conservatives stand up to these institutions. We must not conform to the liberal agenda just because of the pressure we are feeling in everday life from their fear mongering. The liberals refused to show any respect for George W. Bush from the begginning and wanted him to fail from the begginning. Yet they are blaming conservative leaders for wanting Obama to fail? What a Joke!!! They(liberals) are nothing but hypocrites.

skeptic1   March 1st, 2009 10:22 am ET

The GOP, Coulter, and Limbaugh – a tragic comedy.

kimber grace   March 1st, 2009 10:22 am ET

ann coulter is DIS-GUS-TING....but I gotta agree with her about the media coverage of Obama. I'm quite happy about some of the things he's done already, but where in the world is the media objectivity?

Dave in Atlanta   March 1st, 2009 10:21 am ET

Winner, an still the ultimate loser in this conservative group.....you guessed correctly..ANN COULTER!!

Karl   March 1st, 2009 10:21 am ET

I know there's so many on the right wing of political thoughts are great people. I know they want what is best for their families, their neighbors and their country. We simply find destructive thoughts on both sides extremes of the left and right. I am a liberal in some areas. I am conservative in others. America deserves the best of both. Coulter and Limbaugh represent the worse in that effort. This is unfortunate for American, unfortunate for the GOP.

George   March 1st, 2009 10:21 am ET

What a disgusting person she is. Rush Limbaugh in a skirt. I'm sure her stupid jabbing comments don't bother Barack, because she probably says the same things about her own family. If they even acknowledge that she is family.

big papa   March 1st, 2009 10:21 am ET

The extinction of the conservative Confederate movement...

...led by the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Sarah Palin et al...

...should be PRIORITY ONE of the thinking American public...

...we have some 30% of the voting public causing America to have cancer of the collective brain...

...and they should be surgically removed from our collective consciousness...

anonymous   March 1st, 2009 10:21 am ET

Anyone find it odd that the CPAC/Conservative crowd are whining about the media comparing Obama to Lincoln & Jesus, when that same media was telling us that it was 'ordained by God' that Bush was president? If it is so horrible that the media makes such a splashy statement about a president, why weren't they complaining about the comparison when their "baby boy" was president?

GE - MD   March 1st, 2009 10:20 am ET

Ann Coulter is a true looney tune – a real Lulu. 'nuff said! Next topic.

DJ   March 1st, 2009 10:20 am ET

With people like Coulter and Limbaugh garnering media attention for their vitriolic attacks against anything that doesn't agree with their political views, it's no surprise that democrats and reasonable Americans are responding in kind.(On blogs like this and all across the nation).

We need cooperation, not obstructionism and angry fist pumping from the conservatives. We voted as a nation for a liberal progressive administration, lets give it an opportunity and stop pandering to the outspoken minority party.

yellowbmblbee   March 1st, 2009 10:20 am ET

AndyBlue   March 1st, 2009 10:18 am ET

LOL! Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly and other hate-mongers like them are the reason the republican party is now considered the rich southern white racist minority party of hatred.

I love it!

Karen   March 1st, 2009 10:17 am ET

Ok. So to represent the Republicans they've brought us a beauty queen, a radio jockey, a plumber, a 13 year-old boy, a house negro and a mouthy bleached-blond "comedian/commentator."

Sounds like they are priming for the next MTV reality series, not for the 2012 election.

"Hey! Rethugs! Bring us to your leader!"

Martin L.   March 1st, 2009 10:17 am ET

Perfect, just perfect. First the drug addicted, draft dodger Limbaugh and now the skank Coulter-–a very appealing face of the Republican party. Throw in Palin, Jindal, Steele and Sanford and you can see the GOP is fading away. Completely out of touch with the vast majority of Americans.

Aaron Valentino   March 1st, 2009 10:16 am ET

I'm so glad we left the lack of subtlety, nuance, and de-humanizing comments of the Bush era behind.

Scott, Tucson   March 1st, 2009 10:16 am ET

The hypocrisy of the comments made by democrats and lefist nuts here are really over the top. For example..you complain about how we are critizing your new found Messiah Obama, but we had to put up with your incessant whinning over Bush for the past 8 yrs.

As for the current economic mess, the blame is also due to your fellow democrats on the hill who for the past few years who have wrote the previous spending bills, and have been in charge of all the committiees such as the banking and housing industry which got us into this mess. Where's the investigations to explore who was at fault? Oh yeah...Speaker Pelosi along with Harrry Reid certainly don't want to start those up and lose any of their buddies.

I want to tell all politicians:

"THIS IS NOT SHERWOOD FOREST AND THEY NEED TO STOP ACTING LIKE ROBIN HOOD!!!!!!!!

All people in this country need to start taking responsibility for their actions. Help those that need help (and I know there are a lot of people out there that do) and then lets catch and prosecute the people that are stealing from the taxpayers. AND I MEAN EVERYONE!

Thank goodness for the GOP leadership, the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter. Shows the ignorance of the Conservatives.

Chris (DC)   March 1st, 2009 10:14 am ET

I remember being told once by a former head of the RNC that Coulter was known as the "party's mattress tester" for her ability to sleep around. That seems to be what she does. Insult people and sleep with party leaders.

Marydoe   March 1st, 2009 10:13 am ET

Actually, I don't fear Ann Coulter. I can't think of a word nasty enough for her. She spews lie after lie, and her team just laps it up. Obama never exchanged text messages with Scarlet Johannsen, but just Ann saying it makes it true to everyone who hates our president. She adds nothing to our national dialog except garbage. She does remind one of Lenny Bruce....

Ed, Santa Fe, NM   March 1st, 2009 10:13 am ET

Beejay   March 1st, 2009 10:13 am ET

It would appear that no matter what President Obama does, it will not be good enough for the Republicans. It is so obvious that they want him to fail. Who are they to be giving advice after what they did to the country the last eight years? I cannot believe the comments from other people on some of the other topics either. It is so obvious that many of these people are so prejudiced. Nobody knows what will work in getting America back on its feet, but at least the President is trying new things. Why continue doing the same things that got the country into this mess in the first place? Even the financial experts throughout the country cannot agree on what will work. All we can hope for is that God will give the President the wisdom and guidance to help America. We all know that it will take a while…"Rome wasn't built in a day". How can people expect that things will go right in such a short period of time? Wake up people…..use some common sense. The hole was dug very deep. Don't you realize that if his plan works, it's to the benefit of America? Don't let stupidity and prejudice cloud your minds. Instead of stirring up hate, why not offer solutions instead of continuously criticizing and saying the same things over and over?

Dhines0423   March 1st, 2009 10:13 am ET

If only President Lincoln could see what has become of his Republican party. He be ashamed to call himself a member! Those closed minded, intolerant people are extactly who he dedicated his life to fighting. And now thats all that makes up the GOP. Old Abe Lincoln would now be proud to call himself a Democrat! The party of progress. Don't forget that is was Abe Lincoln's LIBERAL idea to free the slaves and thank God for his courage!

Cats   March 1st, 2009 10:13 am ET

Is anyone else out there tired of being pitted against one another as Americans by the hatriots? I watched the US Farm Report segment this morning on tv. As opposed to the "radio machete" of Rush Limbaugh and his "soumates", its rational, intelligent, pragmatic and respectful of the people trying to serve in public office. May the moderates of this world unite against deliberate divisiveness, fearmongering and bigotry.

Craig   March 1st, 2009 10:12 am ET

Coulter and Limbaugh...what a pair

Neither one has standing...neither has even a skin cell in the game...yet both succeed at conning the cons and neocons out of their time and money.

PT Barnum was spot on when he said "You can never underestimate the taste (or gullibility or narrowmindedness) of the American people.

Why does the sychophantic press even bother with these two? Too many slow news days for the vaunted "24 hour news cycle" (in which drivel is churned like clothes in a washer).

Blue in a Red State   March 1st, 2009 10:12 am ET

OReilly, Hannity, Jindal, Coulter, Limbaugh, Steele, the "Plumber", et al are threads from the same swatch of fabric that should only be used as a dust rag or feces removal, then discarded. They all spout rhetoric that is short-sighted, bigoted, ill-informed and unintelligent. The only frightening thing is there are still some people listening to their robo speak. I remain hopeful that those still listening (and applauding) their bile will awaken from their foggy sleep and deeply reconsider their narrow minded and ill advised defacto leaders.

C Spurgeon   March 1st, 2009 10:11 am ET

She is the worst..I can't believe that people buy her books,I can't believe that media gives her any time at all to spew hate. Enough time spent on this one.

Lauren   March 1st, 2009 10:11 am ET

As a democrat who is not fearful of Coulter or Limbaugh I just think it's amazing to me that a party that is suffering so much in terms of its popularity has turned to two ultra-controversial BROADCASTERS to be it's guiding light. I mean neither of these people has ever run for political office and I think it's safe to say that neither plans to. They can say whatever they want regarding the democratic party and never suffer for it because they're not actually politicians having to deal with the other side. And for those who are making comments disparaging the democrats as being no longer in the bipartisan camp...are you serious. When were the republicans ever bipartisan? I mean this type of crap from Coulter and the people who support her in these comments can certainly not say they want to help America move forward in a bipartisan fashion.....

Joe   March 1st, 2009 10:11 am ET

Wow, this woman just may top the only other woman in politics to get the Libby's blood boiling on the ticker (Sarah Palin).

All that anger you feel right now Libby's, is how real Americans feel about your so called "woman", Pelosi.

Ann Coulter is a skank too bad she doesn't get throat cancer from all the cock she's sucked and goes some where and just dies.

David   March 1st, 2009 10:10 am ET

Some moron onn here wrote "lighten up libs" as if liberals are really all that upset by this story. The reality is, liberals love it when people like Ann Coulter or Sarah Palin speak. It only further hammers the nail into the far right-wing coffin.

B.Williams   March 1st, 2009 10:09 am ET

LOL – the Obama group is at it again. The strategy they used during the campaign to innundate opposing sites with their ignorant comments has been revived again here. Take heart conservatives – all the posts here have been purposely orchestrated by the same people that got Obama into office. Call it well-orchestrated knee-jerking. No need to fear. The polls and Nielsen ratings show that they are going DOWN!

TinaGrey   March 1st, 2009 10:09 am ET

She said it was interesting that Obama’s “adorers” in the media compare him to Lincoln and Ronald Reagan, because, “apparently they can’t think of a Democratic president worthy of being compared to.”

Anne of Medford, NJ   March 1st, 2009 10:09 am ET

As a woman I want to cringe every time I hear her open her mouth. She is the girl from high school that was obviously ignored by the boys b/c she thought she was so smart. Now that someone has given her a mic she can't ever shut up. Still trying to impress the boys, huh? What a shame...if you had any real self confidence you'd say a lot less shock "value" things. In the end sweetheart, the history books will still not write about you. Good luck though and know that my daughters will learn how you are not an example of an intelligent woman.

TinaGrey   March 1st, 2009 10:07 am ET

I love how the link to this posting is "Coulter blasts Obama for text messages". She's not blasting him. And why do so many headlines these day say this person is "blasting" that person. Seriously, blasting? Thanks MSM for sowing violence into public discord. You are as much at fault for the acrimony of our leaders. This isn't a "blast", she's just making a joke that you could argue was/wasn't funny. So every time you hear of someone "blasting" someone else, don't believe the hype people.

A Historian   March 1st, 2009 10:07 am ET

Lincoln was a politician like any other. He once climbed out a window to avoid a politicall charged vote. Pretty sure that is just as bad as voting 'present.' Coulter is playing off of ignorance.

bill   March 1st, 2009 10:07 am ET

She's great..... people read her books....she's no different than anyone blogging..... freedom of speech.....she complains about both parties and is not worried about being politically correct...because she is politically correct. The way you guys tried to destroy Joe the Plumber and Sarah Palin.... everything is fair game. It's about time the gloves come off. Get use to it. The historical black president who was elected on color and not experience ....is now just a lousy president in less than 40 days spending more money on pork than anyone in History....not for the Economy.... but because of his socialist ideology.... read up on his background.

This country cannot ever move forward and take control of the problems we have with the likes of the GOP. How sad it all has become!

Ed   March 1st, 2009 10:05 am ET

Can't they see that Ann Coulter only does this type of thing because she gets a reaction out of it. She realized along the way that to be a Democrat, she actually needed brains. So she joined the right-wing of the Republican party knowing that all you need is to be mean and spiteful and they welcome you with open arms. Ann, Please!

Stephen   March 1st, 2009 10:04 am ET

You Demobrats understand that 47% of this country doesn't agree with you. 47% of this country will never back down from its beliefs and ideals. 47% that will fight tooth and nail to keep America a free nation. 47% that will never let the government control its life. 47% that will boycott any company the government tries to nationalize. 47% that will protect our children from your twisted theology. 47% that if pushed will without a blink of an eye will shove back twice as hard. 47% that work harder and are more dedicated to our lives. 47%! But keep telling yourself that we are the minority here, that's what we want you to think.

Don of Iowa   March 1st, 2009 10:04 am ET

Coulter is just jealous of Obama because she doesnt have the brains needed to use text messaging, like all of the other misogynist Republicans she has problems with any words over 4 letters, if it isnt the word hate, kill or maim she doesnt have a clue what it means. It tells a lot about the misguided and broken GOP (Greedy Old Pigs) when the two most noted speakers at this gathering in the pig sty are not politicians but those who write and speak of hatred, bigotry and despising any sign of intelligence. If this is all the GOP has to offer us, two dried up hate filled bigoted blow hards who have nothing to offer but more hatred and bigotry then we can safely say we will NOT see another member of the GOP anywhere near the White House for many many years to come. This is so typical of the GOP, if you lose you throw a tantrum and act like th elittle 3 year olds you are. And to have two of the most ridiculed and despised morons on talk radio and hate mongering writers of bigoted books as your spokespersons is the most telling of all. If the GOP does not realize that it has to turn from the illiterate and uneducated, hateful and bigoted past it has held to so strongly for so many years then it is nothing more than a symbol of the past like the Nazis and Hitler, another era of hatred and bigotry for anyone who does not believe as you do, one is surprised to not see hangmnes nooses present and burning of representatives of minority parties at a gathering of a lynch mob of these proportions. It is long since been time to put these signs of our misguided and evil past in the ground where they belng and move on to a more equal and love filled country, let the GOP tear itself apart from the inside out, the rest of the country is moving into the future where we no longer need such hateful and belittleing people to lead us to more hatred and bigotry. The people pf the GOP have tried to tell us they are not filled with hate and bigotry and yet they put on a specatacle of this nature where it is all you see, it is time they stop denying who they are and what they stand for and come forward and acknowledge how truly despicable a party they truly are.

Jeannie   March 1st, 2009 10:03 am ET

Are Coulter and Limbaugh planning to run for office in the future? Listening to either of them about politics is like taking a religion lesson from Tom Cruise ;)

WLW   March 1st, 2009 10:03 am ET

It's clear that Ann Coulter has run out of ideas. She can only resort to barbs, name-calling, and calling Speaker Nancy Pelosi "mentally retarded."

Is conservativism out of ideas already?

Sandy   March 1st, 2009 10:02 am ET

Yeah, well it was THEIR party, hers and Limbaugh's, that really destroyed this country over the past 8 years. So I guess when you've been voted out and have nothing else to do...

And if anyone can speak from experience about mistakes and screwing up the country, these 2 sure can....

jerry   March 1st, 2009 10:02 am ET

Ann Coulter is a wack job... She hates all democrats and liberals... Thinking we should all think like her? Guess what she needs to climb into a hole along with Rush the big mouth Limbaugh and Michelle Bachmann. Michelle Bachmann wanted to have the whole congress to be investigated to see who is anti-American. She said that it was taken out of context. I heard it on Hardball with Chris Matthews. People who think like that, well welcome back the 1950's and Joe McCarthy!

dc   March 1st, 2009 10:00 am ET

i don't agree with just about everything Coulter says.
However, it's a free country and she's entitle to her opinion. Just because i disagree does not prevent me from listening to her point of view just as i would someone whose sympathies aligned with mine.
I don't fear her, i don't hate her. She has said some outrageous things and that's part of the appeal.
she doesn't have a real job. all she does is write her opinion in books and travel to talk shows willing to take someone who will incite the audience. i can't blame her for needing to be topical and to stand out from all the other talking heads as a way of keeping her career going.
just take what she says with a grain of salt. no on as insane as how coulter appears to be will ever have the ability to ever do anything of actual importance to society- they had their chance the last 8 years and screwed it up terribly. just let her list off all the things she hates about people who are not her or her sympathizers and laugh it off.
she is the modern media equivalent of the crazy cat lady yelling at the kids to stay off her lawn.

Dear God help us. Now these pinheads are calling this the Obama recession. Are they freaking kidding? And does anyone who isn't drunk, senile or conservative believe this? When the country completely collapses, the Republicans will be at the helm, just like they were when this awful recession hit. Heck, if I was Rush or Ann, with money to light cigarettes, I'd talk this stupid smack too. A message to their followers: THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU. YOU ARE A TOOL SO THAT THEY CAN MAKE MORE MONEY. Get a clue!

bob   March 1st, 2009 9:58 am ET

Let me summarize all these posts.... "You Republicans are stupid!" "No, you Democrats are stupid" "No, you're stupid" etc. etc.

The blind hatred of all things related to the other party will prevent or at least dramatically slow down economic recovery. Instead of wanting everyone to be better off, the warring factions of these parties don't mind being miserable so long as the other party is miserable too.

You know, even if someone isn't exactly like you, they may still have a good idea or two. Open minds will take us farther than open mouths.

Oh that does it! Anybody have a good way for us to get in touch with a hit man?

the only thing missing at this gathering was apicture of hitler and a swastica flag

db   March 1st, 2009 9:54 am ET

LOL Come on now! Ann and LImbaugh are very funny material! Maybe even more than Palin!

David   March 1st, 2009 9:54 am ET

Conservatives are down, but not out. After conservatives took over both the House and the Senate during Clinton's presidency, there were some who called the Democrats forever irrelevant. The arrogance of the Republican party caused its downfall. The arrogance of the Democrats will cause their downfall.

Claudia   March 1st, 2009 9:54 am ET

Oh Ann! Again you have no real comments to offer so you are going for zingers as if you are a comedian and not a commentator ....again appeal to your base, but who thought the base meant base mentality. I pretty much see you have joined the mentality of the room and now the more you all talk.....the more convinced we are that the disconnect is so very real. Ann....get a real job. You are not part of any solution, you are a parasite....sucking the life out of hard working people along with your predator supporters. Yes the very predators that got us into this mess in the first place!

Alex Santana   March 1st, 2009 9:54 am ET

I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE BEEN A FLY ON THAT WALL...TO HEAR LIMBUG AND ANN COOTIE COULTER....NO ONE IN AMERICA IS SO FULL OF HATE AND ANTI-AMERICAN FEELINGS THAN THESE TWO. WHAT IS AMAZING IS THAT SEEMINGLY INTELLIGENT PEOPLE CAN EVEN STOMACH THESE TWO ALONG WITH SHAME HANNITY AND MIKE SAVAGE...THEY GO BEYOND NORMAL POLITICS THEY OOZE HATRED AND SCORN FOR ANYONE WHO DOES NOT THINK LIKE THEY DO.

WHEN WILL THEY REALIZE THAT THIS COUNTRY IS TOO SMART AND TOO WISE TO BE CONSERVATIVE ANYMORE....WE MAY NOT BE A LIBERAL MAJORITY, BUT WE CERTAINLY DON'T LOOK TO THE RIGHT.

PEOPLE LIKE COULTER AND LIMBUG WOULD DO BETTER IF THEY DID NOT USE THEIR WORDS TO DENEGRATE AND TAKE DOWN THEIR OPPONENTS. WHY THE GOP SEEMS TO FEEL LIKE THEY HAVE TO PUT PEOPLE DOWN TO GET THEIR POINT ACROSS.

IT WAS FUN TO SEE COULTER SQUIRM RECENTLY ON LARRY KING...JOY BEHAR TOOK NO PRISONERS AND SHOWED COULTER FOR WHAT SHE WAS...A BARBIE LIKE HACK...SOMEONE NEEDS TO TELL HER IT IS IN 1965 ANYMORE!!!

Dallas   March 1st, 2009 9:54 am ET

Some argue that Ms. Coulter's style is too harsh...but the funny thing is that she has a nasty habit of being right. She may be a grain of sand in every liberals' shoe...but she is a pearl to those of us who don't drink the Obama kool-aid

jeff   March 1st, 2009 9:54 am ET

So it sounds like this convention was nothing more than a "we hate liberals" convention without any real talk about what the conservatives' ideas can offer this country. Apparently that's because they don't have anything to offer... But if they do, they certainly haven't articulated it. So far we know that Limbaugh and Coulter hate Obama. And based on that "Obama the magic..." song that a conservative made a while back we know that conservatives are racist and hate black people. Sure sounds like a wonderful group of people.

Colin   March 1st, 2009 9:53 am ET

The list of guests at this event alone (Limbaugh? Coulter?) lends itself to largely being a joke.

I hope the Republicans keep up this strategy. It won't work.

miken   March 1st, 2009 9:53 am ET

Ann gives the CNN crowd a reason to vent and the rest of america to cheer. Smart, funny and pulling no punches.

Tammy   March 1st, 2009 9:53 am ET

So now an ex-junky (Limbaugh) and someone who makes millions getting sound bites like this for her books represents the conservative view points and the Republican party? All that energy and words that are hateful wasted taking pot shots at Obama instead of contributing to a solution for the nation makes me sick. This is why you lost Republicans. Get a clue.

jerry   March 1st, 2009 9:51 am ET

Anne, Rush, and Sara – this is what is wrong with the Republican Party. We need effective government not bipartisan bull like these yoyos throw around. As I watch this "Let's make Obama fail" approach, i have abandoned my party (Republican) in shame. The Republican party is lost. It stands for nothing except the opposition of the Democratic party. What this country really needs is a third party. The bipartisan bull will stop overnight and poor Rush will need more narcotics.

TRY NOT TO TAKE HER SO SERIOUSLY

(whoops...caps. wasnt yelling)

Mark   March 1st, 2009 9:51 am ET

Someone has to say it–Obama asked for it. Bush threw us into the death pit and Obama is just fueling the fire. There's no difference between the Democrats and Republicans at this point in time.

Joe G.   March 1st, 2009 9:50 am ET

To Julianna above:

Ann Coulter's disrespect for gov't pales in comparison for Obama's disrespect for the Constitution and individual liberty, which Obama is surely crushing with his radical policy desires.

Casey | Sebastopol, CA   March 1st, 2009 9:50 am ET

I am SO glad that these Republicans have this opportunity to show the world what whiny brats they are, aren't you?

Bush doubled the national debt - most of it "off the books" hiding the cost of his wars and tax cuts and they want to claim that President Obama's budget is not a solution? I find that the truth, however daunting, is FAR MORE acceptable than the constant lies and distortions of Republican run government.

But what really chaps me is the way the GOP says "um, yeah, we doubled the budget, but now it's time to not add anything to the budget" ... why? because it's not THEIR watch? As an American taxpayer, I say it's time to spend what we need to get our house in order and to put the fair share of that cost to THOSE WHO BENEFITED MOST FROM THE SPENDING DONE BY BUSH.

It speaks volumes that the best the GOP has to offer in terms of public female Republicans are Sarah "know nothing" Palin and Ann "windbag" Coulter.

At least when the next 8 yrs are up, we'll have something tangible to show for the spending, unlike with Bush... oh, wait, yeah, I forgot... there are big bomb craters , dead bodies, unemployment lines and foreclosure signs that he can point to.

CluelessGop   March 1st, 2009 9:50 am ET

Poor ManCoulter, she is almost as irrelevant as her party. Sad!

Gloria   March 1st, 2009 9:50 am ET

CPAC should be called OBAC "Obama Bashing" instead of Conservative Political. Rush, Newt, Ann; none of them had a positive suggestion for 2012. All they did was criticize President Obama and everything he is trying to do.

jerry   March 1st, 2009 9:49 am ET

"W",Anne, Rush, and Sara – this is what is wrong with the Republican PArty. We need effective government not bipartisan bull like these yoyo throw around. As I watch this Let's make Obama fail" approach, i have abandoned my party (Republican) in shame. The Republican party is lost. Ity stands for nothing except the opposition of the Democratic party. What this country really needs is a third party. The bipartisan bull will stop overnight and poor Rush will need more narcotics.

Devon Young   March 1st, 2009 9:49 am ET

Here's a comment you won't read on the air: Rush is RIGHT! The welfare state has decimated the black family; abortion on demand has given rise to a self-induced black genocide. But for wholesale abortion, there would be double the number of American blacks. What a shame! Martin Luther King was a Republican. No wonder he had a message of hope and self-sufficiency.

Most of all, I must ask: If what Rush is saying is SO very damaging to the conservative movement, why are the Dems working overtime to "Hush Rush"? Methinks the lady doth protest too much!

David   March 1st, 2009 9:49 am ET

Hey, Superferret… You can't be serious to suggest that — in response to an article about Anne Coulter, of all people — that it's surprising, or for that matter even anywhere near wrong, for people to react with anger and hate.

This woman has to be one of the most hate-filled, bile-spewing blights in existence on this planet.

Tim   March 1st, 2009 9:49 am ET

What amazes me most is how this broad manages to find work. Maybe she's comping CPAC. For crying out loud (no pun intended) Give President Obama a chance. He's been on the job 6 weeks and already people are calling for his head. The people complaining most about the Recovery plan are the ones with the most to gain-Corporate America and the fat cat elite. Pay your fair share like the 'rest' of us.
And Rush...pffft...I had that guy figured out in the 80's.

kman919   March 1st, 2009 9:49 am ET

Geez....rush and his gang of clown are some scary individuals, god help us if these people succeed in getting their message across. Obama would be very wise to ignore this trailer trash crap their spoutin. This talk is to low to give credance to. When that fool rush mentioned that obama is not inspiring I knew that man was evil for distorting the truth.

Mark   March 1st, 2009 9:47 am ET

Ann is over the top – but you have to admit...SHE STILL SELLS BOOKS – AND EVERY TIME SHE THROWS INSULTS AND MEDIA OUTLETS PICK UP ON HER – MORE MONEY IN HER BANK ACCOUNT.

She is the same as JESSE JACKSON & AL SHARPTON...with these idiots saying that whites are racist. They really don't believe what they're saying (maybe they do), but they want to energize their base – and the base will go out and buy their books. This is one of the oldest professions in the world (except for prostitution) and what Ann is doing is just getting the message out to the conservatives. She could care less what the media thinks of her...it's her base she cares about.

You ppl have to realize there are extremes on both sides of the aisle and there always will be flamethrowers out there to make a buck. And that's what Jesse, Al, and Ann are doing – attacking the other side to get their base fired up – and then their base goes out and buy their books.

Violet Jacksonville, FL   March 1st, 2009 9:47 am ET

I really think or should I say thought that people could see through this kind of tirade. The late night talk shows didn't spew hate about Bush, they were merely provided with so much comedic material. Rush and Anne must have had horrible childhoods. Anne knows an awful lot about alternative proms, please tell us about the misery you experienced. I'd love to understand you both Probably the MSNBC crowd would love to, as well.

charles   March 1st, 2009 9:47 am ET

Coulter? Gimme a break! Why would the GOP be recruiting the lunatic fringe to talk. I personally know honest, decent, intelligent people who are conservative Republicans, and they do not subscribe to the fear and hate fill diatribe of the Coulter/Limbaugh ilk, whose attempts to divide and fracture our country is anti-American to the core, But, hey, they are making really big bucks doing it. Why should they care that they are weakening our country.

Marge   March 1st, 2009 9:46 am ET

Gee the more you hear from these republicans the more you have to laugh right out loud.

The bush administration sent, but destroyed over 4 millions emails. No record, no nothing, now the republicans are talking about obama and the Dems sending messages.

Give me a break can these little republican kids get more snippy and whinney.

"Bill in DC "

"Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh are perfect examples of why the Republican party is doomed for the same fate as the Whig party of the 1800s.

Mark my word, the Repblican party will not exist in 50 years."

And If we continue down this "path" that the Democratic Party are leading us....We as a country might not be around in 50 years.
Just remember Bill...Obama-ism/Social-ism doesn't work....never has never will.

Sleepless in Colorado   March 1st, 2009 9:43 am ET

It was completely irresponsible for call her a lunatic. What's the difference between Ann Coulter and a horse? The horse has a better chance of getting laid! I really dislike this person. It's funny that he Repubs are getting made leaving comments saying that we're full of hate and that we're afraid of Ann Coulter. I'm not afraid of anybody. Dennis, you are my new hero! "Men are from Mars. Women are from Venus. Ann Coulter is from Uranus!" You should make that into a bumper sticker! Get mad Repubs! You have some wonderful leaders in your party.

Craig S.   March 1st, 2009 9:43 am ET

Another blow hard who's attributes include insults, hatred, lacking any common sense, and not being able to make a single-positive-constructive statement. In other words.........she is Rush's twin.

smith john   March 1st, 2009 9:42 am ET

Everybody should get over it, all the "rich white" voters are getting their just rewards, taxes,taxes,taxes. All the liberal talk hosts who fear the fairness doctrine , should fear if the media were to do their job and report the news and not make it..

It appears the entire country is filled with people who don't understand, don't care and certainly are foolish. Republican Party! Democratic Party! Where in the Constitution is there an allowance for political parties to control the Congress? They are both only interested in power and keeping their people in office at any costs to the people and the country. Let one representative vote what he/she thinks is best for the country instead of the party line and see how long they stay in office. Like the Venezuelans, those who chose change (socialism) deserve what is coming, but not their children.

db   March 1st, 2009 9:41 am ET

Ugly, Bitter,Hateful, old Hag! Could you imagine if Limbaugh and Ann had a child! Can we say Satan!!

Jimmy   March 1st, 2009 9:41 am ET

It is good to see someone attacking the socialist movement and the democratic "messiah" with some fervor and energy. God knows the lapdog media (CNN, MSNBC etc) won't. I am very concerned about what our country will be like in 4 years with over 15 trillion as our national deficit. All you dems that gloat and revel like this grotesque spending frenzy was a mandate will have yourselves to blame when this country goes bankrupt and then the voices of fiscal conservatives like Limbaugh and Coulter will seem prophetic....

Mike   March 1st, 2009 9:41 am ET

Ms Coulter and Rush are *expecting* the reactions. They need the reactions in order to accomplish their primary goal, which has nothing whatsoever to do with politics. It has to do with making money. Being outlandish achieves that.

gg   March 1st, 2009 9:40 am ET

bedford   March 1st, 2009 9:40 am ET

Does anybody understand the intellectually deficient Coulter and Limbaugh? Sarah Palin makes these two seem like intellectual midgets. It seems strange that the Dems have become the party of Lincoln and the GOP the party of unpatriotic slobs.

With the likes of Limbaugh, Hannity, Gingrich, and Coulter advising and leading the Republican party we have the Four Horsemen mentioned in the Bible. Hopefully the Second Coming will get here before the Republicans can regain control of the government and carry out the wishes of the above mentioned Four (headless, as in brainless) Horsemen.

Terry   March 1st, 2009 9:36 am ET

It's soooo funny how Republicans are losing sleep over Obama. Look, McCain and Palin LOST. Get over it! Obama's in charge and needed to be. This actually shows just how sad Republicans are by having Rush and Ann speak for them. It makes you look so desperate!!

Glad BUSH IS gone, if we could get rid of ann coulter.that would be nice she is a idiot. Like Bush

Ire Verent   March 1st, 2009 9:36 am ET

What's happened to Ann. She used to be hot but she looks like she has been ridden hard and put up wet. Maybe all those meds she is getting from Rush are taking their toll. The new old face of the republican party, racists and junkies.

Algernon   March 1st, 2009 9:35 am ET

What else would you call her, if not a comedienne? She is not much of a writer, she is not a journalist, not a policy expert, not a historian, and by comparison of Coulter's judgment, Stephen Colbert is less extreme.

Da Professor   March 1st, 2009 9:35 am ET

Ted   March 1st, 2009 9:35 am ET

paul   March 1st, 2009 9:35 am ET

I can't stand this ANNIE chick! I wish somehow she lost her voice and never regained it! I do have to agree with her on the media's love of Obama during the campaign. I loved out loud when the media made it a 3 day circus when Scarlet Johansen revealed that Dem Idol Obama had sent her a text. Or how they compare him to Lincoln. Or even to Reagan. He may, one day, deserve comparisons to any and all the presidents of the United States but to compare him within the 1 st month to them is ridiculous since he has yet to accomplish anything more than showing the world that left handed people write funny! (I'm a leftie too)

C from Canada   March 1st, 2009 9:34 am ET

Look at her trying to emulate Michelle Obama with those bare arms...

Pam   March 1st, 2009 9:33 am ET

She's such a bitter old cow. And for the record, I'm sure Lincoln exchanged words with people who worked in the theater back then, the equivalent of today's texting. It would have been odd for a dignitary to have not been presented with the lead actors in the plays.

And what is the importance of this anyway? Is she trying to say that the only effective leaders are the ones who speak only to people she deems worthy? What a self-important old hag. Get over yourself, you and your pill-popping, hypocrite friend Rush.

khiph   March 1st, 2009 9:31 am ET

The problem with people who think they are "superior and tough" Is that they don't really know what peace is, and have no clue of the level of patience and dignity it takes to keep that peace. They just stay in their mad little world. Make no mistake though, I think most of the anger in these posts is justified. Considering how much the Republican's attack the Democrats. Without offering any kind of solutions to the problems most of America seems concerned with. Angry people think they can get mad. They have never seen the peaceful people get mad.

EVOLVE   March 1st, 2009 9:31 am ET

ANN COULTER AND RUSH LIMBAUGH ARE POOR EXAMPLES OF AMERICANS AND MISERABLE PIECES OF EXCUSES OF A PARTY THAT DOESN'T UNDERSTAND AMERICA.

Kaci   March 1st, 2009 9:30 am ET

This is exactly what a resounding majority of the American people rejected. You don't have to spew hate to prove you have values. This shows that these folks at CPAC have no respect for the American voter and their ability to make a conscious decision on who is their leader. This shows the contempt with which Limbaugh and Coulter address the American people. I'm not stupid and the media DID NOT make me do it. I'm an education, established, well-read adult who decided to not vote for hate, who decided to vote for what America can be again. Limbaugh and Coulter and Cornyn and their ilk are one of the reasons you saw memebership in hate groups like the KKK increase substantially after the election. These so-called "conservatives" are not Americans. they are not citizens. They are the rogue fringe that got us into this mess. I for one will vote against hate every chance I get.

Steve   March 1st, 2009 9:30 am ET

Her delivery may be biting, but her message is more often than not correct. This governement – and that means ALL of congress and the administration – is going to take this country down a path that will take a long time to recover.
The US has the most progressive income tax in the world – 'progressive' means that portions of the tax paying public pay different percentages based on income. If the coutnry is built on small business, then why does the administration and congress think that taxing them more will generate more jobs and lead to recovery?

Georgia Gal   March 1st, 2009 9:28 am ET

IMO, it doesn't say much about the future of the GOP when your keynote speakers are Limbaugh and Coulter. The far right wing of the GOP may love them, but considering they only make up a small portion of the voters in this country I don't think the Democrats have a lot to worry about as long as the GOP continues to head down their road.

bill for barack   March 1st, 2009 9:28 am ET

Apparently this idiot Coulter has never read her history – or can she even read ?
If she did then she would know that Lincoln, as an Illinois legislator, frequently voted present.
What a typically idiotic conservative this cretin is .....

josh   March 1st, 2009 9:27 am ET

rush and anne both are big loosers all they want is this country to do is fail they are both very dangerous and i cant believe that anyone would want them to speak at there event. someone needs to stop both of them i think they are useless human beings and not worth the space they take up!!!

Marc   March 1st, 2009 9:27 am ET

Ironic how the media is too supportive of the left??? Yet it's the media whose leading the GOP??? in Rush Limbaugh and Ms Coulter.

Dd   March 1st, 2009 9:26 am ET

Amazing that people actually listen to the likes of Limbaugh and Coulter. I've never seen two people more full of hate then those two. Is this what the Republican party is today??? Probably. It would explain why every face at the RNC was white and over 50.

Ted Cahill   March 1st, 2009 9:26 am ET

Wow! The majority of posters are so filled with anger and hate that they need professional help. They are witnessing a ground swell of conservative opposition to the odious state of affairs in Washington.
It is sad and funny at the same time. Their prideful and ignorant attacks on CPAC and the speakers displays their true character.
No wonder it's impossible to be bipartisian.

Oh really? I thought people turned liberal after they've refused to exercise their abilities to make it on their own and want the government to give them everything.

John   February 28th, 2009 9:29 pm ET

Limbaugh + Coutler are equal to angry losers. Why is CPAC crowd not joining them to become husband and wife........ I am sure they would be perfect match. By the way I enjoyed their ramblings and I strongly recommend to those so call Republican to adhere to Rush and Ann so that Republican can continue to loose again and again. I love ya all

Give me a break !! People that do drugs like Rush,go to jail..Please
tell me why he didn't get jail time ? Ann is just out padding her checking account..A member of the GOP no more............

Scott   February 28th, 2009 9:19 pm ET

Media is a big part of the problem. Extremists like Rush and Colter will always exist in society, but it is our media's thirst for conflict ( which equals ratings) that puts the worst of us center stage.

I have experienced the views of any of my neighbors as being much more respectful, reasonable and down-to-earth. I have seen expressed the views of experts I have known, that are informative, inclusive and accepting of new facts.

I would like to see CNN and the other news organizations put information first, rather than ratings. We all truly need good information to make the important choices ahead, not just quoting extremists.

GOP-fellas   February 28th, 2009 9:19 pm ET

The GOP has become the Limbaugh-Coulter Party, and will continue to drive decent, non-vitriolic conservatives from the GOP ranks.

Here's to the suicide of the GOP! (clink).

Kirk Dennis   February 28th, 2009 9:19 pm ET

I am neither a Republican nor a Democrat. Mostly I do not like politicians very much, they claim to be the solution when in fact they are the problem. However I do think it is interesting that so many people who loved to bash our last pres, GW, think that no one has the right to do the same to the current pres, Pres BO.

Bill   February 28th, 2009 9:17 pm ET

The only people that are bad for the country are people like her and Rush Limbaugh. They are nothing but hacks who couldn't come up with any good ideas to make the country better if their lives depended on it. If the Republicans choose to listen to people like them, they will be in the minority in Congress for at least a generation- which is fine by me!

W   February 28th, 2009 9:16 pm ET

Lighten up libs, it was a 15 minute comedy routine. You had no problem with 8 years of late night shows, especially Letterman, beating up on Bush. Remember how many of you actually thought, and maybe still do, that Palin really said 'I can see Russia from my house"? You guys all thought that was hilarious comedy by Tina Fey. But let someone make fun of a Democrat and you immediately start calling them names, haters, liars, racists, all the while you yourselves are calling Michael Steele, the new RNC chairman, an Uncle Tom, the republicans token black, and stupid for being a conservative. For the party of peace and love and tolerence for all mankind, aka, Democrats, how come the liberals of your party are always the ones to provoke violence in the U.S. with your "peace" rallies that have turned into riots and destruction of public and personal property?

SHAME ON CNN FOR CARRYING THE ENTIRE SPEECH OF THE IDIOT RUSH LIMBAUGH. RUSH LIMBAUGH SHOULD BE SEEN AND NOT HEARD. IT'S TIME TO GET SERIOUS CNN. YOU CAN DO BETTER WITH YOUR TIME.

rose   February 28th, 2009 9:15 pm ET

Why is she still in the news?? She is so lame, her and the rest of the Republican talking heads trying to make themselves look better by taking swipes at people trying to solve problems.

All of them need to go SIT DOWN and SHUT UP!!

There is nothing comedic about this vicious, self-promoting, demagogue. She is a dangerous right-winger who has received far too much attention by the media. Were she given the silent treatment , the soap box she loves to stand on would eventually turn into sawdust, which incidentally is the garbage she peddles .

SilD   February 28th, 2009 9:12 pm ET

Bush lost the popular vote in 2000 – 47.9% to Gore's 48.4% (-.5%); in 2004, he won 50.7% to Kerry's 48.3% (+1.6%) ... the argument that Obama's victory is "mediocre" is empty and convenient... it certainly wouldn't have worked for Anne or Rush when Republicans were in office.

Also, the people that blame the media seem to have short memories... Palin was a feature on every news network in the weeks following the convention... had she handled herself better, the election – which at that time was close – could have turned the other way. Fact is that she got tripped up on some benign questions and the election turned in Obama's favor. She was given a platform and the opportunity to succeed, but did not.

Anne and Rush are Republican shills and conservative only when it is convenient or self serving.

WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!   February 28th, 2009 9:12 pm ET

Now that comment about "Rush Limprick" was priceless.

The GOP needs to take a step back and look at the guy who sabotaged McCain and see how he has managed the GOP party. A bunch of dittoheads trying to run this country.

Does this CPAC qualify as a Hate Group???

Janice Luscher   February 28th, 2009 9:10 pm ET

JennyO   February 28th, 2009 9:09 pm ET

Where was this "guard dog" for the past 8 years? Smuggling Viagra? This Rush/Coulter Republikkkan tea party is very entertaining. At least it would be if I weren't faced with the worry of losing my job. They are predicting that 2 million+ here in NYC are in danger of losing their jobs. I wish these people would just move to Russia. That corrupt, free market nightmare is exactly what they want for this country.

barry   February 28th, 2009 9:09 pm ET

Oh boy – Ann Coulter spinning the same song and dance – she should be the woman (girlfriend) Rush is looking for....I think she could slide down that pole quite nicely, being the snake that she is....makes me sick...why doesn't she practice what she preaches?? Oh, I know why – she is a Republican. Yuk.

slp   February 28th, 2009 9:02 pm ET

Okay. I am a conservative and I do feel that Ann Coulter crosses the line a lot of the time. However, democrats have gotten to the point that no ones views are to be respected if they don't line up with theirs. I have always and always will believe in the sanctity of life, that the structure of the family and the state of moral values correlates to the health of a nation, working for what I have, that God is the ultimate authority, and that my relationship with Jesus Christ ultimately defines every area of my life. I also believe that what makes this country great is that everyone in it has the freedom to have their own opinions and can voice them without fear. All of you democrats calling people like me uneducated, unfeeling, selfish, and out of touch with reality are entitled to your opinion. Think of me what you want. I am just asking that you take a moment to offer thanks for your freedoms because I am very afraid that we are in serious danger of losing them.

ralph   February 28th, 2009 9:02 pm ET

I think it says enough about the GOP when entertainers don't campaign for the party, but lead it. I'd take Pitt, Clooney, and Striesand (spelling, sorry) championing their causes, than a bunch of joke sayers leading it. This lady, as well as the big fat bag of air are the scum of public consciousness! The folks who cheer these bags of hot air are like cattle following a shepherd.

P.S. They still haven't got a clue or an idea (nor leader for that matter) about how to correct this ill fated course that their party of ill functioning lunatics have set us on.

Wallace D   February 28th, 2009 9:02 pm ET

No one from CPAC, with all the rhetoric, complaints, pundents and comments have said anything about the plight of the American people and how they can fix it. Yet they let loud mouths like Rush and Ann do the talking while the Republicans hide behind their coat-tails and villify the President of the United States Barack Obama how do you expect the world to respect and feel about our leader.

After that speech from Rush I know the world has said it is a sad day in America but of course (it is free speech) what a jerk.

Mark, Atlanta   February 28th, 2009 9:01 pm ET

Coulter's elitist drivel is the lowest. The cries of the wealthy and priveliged. They have no sympathy for people out there hurting. They want power. They actually believe that they were born to govern over us all; as they pilfer the coffers. Conservative IDIOTS!!!

chuck tulsa   February 28th, 2009 9:01 pm ET

brad h   February 28th, 2009 9:00 pm ET

Despite the comments that we are reading here, Coulter and Limbaugh are perfect examples of why this country is where it is now. Since 1981 a large group of citizens have listened to this carefully disguised hate speech and propoganda and BELIEVED it! The fact that I came home on a beautiful saturday afternoon to see an exclusive and lengthy live broadcast of Limbaugh's speech on CNN made me wonder if CNN has lost what was left of its journalistic creed. As to Coulter and Limbaugh, they can thank me for my years of service defending their right to free speech by KISSING MY LIBERAL A$$. CNN you need to decide if you are part of the problem or part of the solution, it only takes a few seconds.

I'm not the smartest person in America but I do know that if all I did was stand around and bash the President, there would be that much less hope for OUR recovery. I implore everyone, including Ann Coulter, to become part of the solution rather than continuing to be part of the problem!

Franky   February 28th, 2009 8:59 pm ET

Ohh lord, Ann Coulter, huh? I thought she was writing books why teenage pregnancy is the world's fault, or why being single is a sin...I'll make that guy cry...I'm sorry, meant woman, LOL!!

Chuck   February 28th, 2009 8:58 pm ET

It is interesrting that someone like Joyce, who is a "good conservative" criticizes the government and the poor while everyone in her life is on disability or is unemployed. She complains about not qualifying for programs because her family "earns too much money." It is that level of hypocrisy that has the rest of the country trying seriously to find solutions. Conservatives imagine that they live in a different world then the rest of us. They look to icons like Rush Limbaugh who makes 36 million dollars a year and think that Rush cares about them. They do not understand that issues don't have easy answers. I imagine that Joyce is worried that her taxes will be raised because Rush tells her that the is the ultimate goals of liberals. Conservative leaders care about themselves That is why Bush failed. He did what conservatives try to do when the get power..... "Get rich and stay rich."

Steve in Las Vegas,NV   February 28th, 2009 8:57 pm ET

Coulter will be there to help them (GOP) snatch defeat from the jaws of victory and Pelosi will do the same for the dems if they're not careful, and try to tamper with the 2nd amendment among other things.

M. ELIAS   February 28th, 2009 8:57 pm ET

When Obama is done educating the nascar crowd and the gang bangers, Rush and his ilk will have no imaginary 20-million listeners to yap to. Are the conservatives scared of the erosion of illiteracy in America when Obama is done? of course otherwise explain to me how a normal human being who would vote against his interest because some guy is sitting on millions of dollars while encouraging him to vote against his healthcare and education.

No way   February 28th, 2009 8:53 pm ET

She makes me sick, rush makes me sick all the right wing nuts make me sick. Hey, I have an idea why don't the GOP all move to the south and have there own country, and see who gets further. Since we as a country can never be united with them around, they are so against growth and progress and live in the past. They don't even want to try to work with Obama. As long as they listen to Ann and rush I do not have an ounce respect for any of them and will never support any of them.

The Chief Priest (Rush Limbaugh) and the Scribes (Ann Coulter) said Jesus Christ did all his good works through the Devil. They also like to quote scripture, make money from the suffering of the meek and poor. Barack Obama is no messiah... nor is he trying to be. But just remember what it says in the Good Book... good will always prevail or evil.

JulesT   February 28th, 2009 8:51 pm ET

Clearly, she is a very angry and nasty person, who truly has no real knowledge or patriotism. She and Mitt should get together, they would love nothing more than to see our new administration fail., which in turn will see us all fail. It is bad enough the nastiness we had to put up with during the election. It is so tiresome and pathetic, that she, McCain, Romney and the majority of republicans will stop at nothing to continue see ruins in our American families. they should all be ashamed of themselves.

Angela   February 28th, 2009 8:48 pm ET

No doubt they welcome her. I saw them standing and cheering for Rush the druggie. They have truly drunk the kool aid.

Have they stopped even for one moment and though about how their policies have gotten us to where we are? Or are they too busy trying to blame it on someone? They had 8 years? Enough.

Here we go again. A ridiculous idiot of a person who thinks she is so powerful, and really is sickening. NORMAL PEOPLE CANNOT STAND HER !!!! ARE YOU LISTENING????
Another situation that is getting a little ridiculous is the fact that CNN is always showing all the talk from the Repubs. and how they knock almost everything Pres. Obama does or says or his administration comes up with, yet you never have your newsmen come up with at least someone following up with possibly "IT IS A GOOD IDEA" instead CNN just continuing to show all the bad talk about Obama. I do not believe CNN is being bias at all, I am just saying when something that is said that leaves the listener wondering "IS THIS REPUBLICAN RIGHT OR WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO THINK" THIS IS WHERE I BELIEVE CNN SHOULD HAVE POSSIBLY SOMEONE TRY TO EXPLAIN EASILY WHAT AND WHY THE DECISION OF THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION WAS MADE. Just a thought........

All day, I have not heard one thing about how they will help get this country back from the brink. All I hear is Obama bashing and its childish and a waste of time. Until they bring fresh ideas to the table instead of recycling ideas from the 80s they will continue to be irrelevant.

Also, think about this, do you see Microsoft or other companies peddle the products they had in the 80s???? No, they adjust and work with the changing times. Talking in ridicules slang, but not adjusting their ideas will only keep the conservatives where they are and I guess that's fine with me!

As for Coulter, the article says it all. She's a comedian, a joke.

It's rather interesting that, at a time when Republicans most need to be distancing themselves from the far right and appealing to disillusioned moderates, they are still allowing themselves to be represented by idiots like Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter.

Every time a Republican senator or governor almost has me convinced with a stirring speech about fiscal responsibility, I remember, "Oh yeah, it's the anti-gay, anti-choice party that cringes at the possibility of non-white cultural influences and didn't seem to care about fiscal responsibility when the debt was being run up by one of their own."

Ann is a fool........ who is being used by the republicans and she does even know that they are using her yet. Ann, Rush, Nick and the rest of the republican conservatives are good for the Democrats. Over the last eight years they alone with Mr. Bush have turn this country upside down and now.......now the Democrats, lead by President Obama are cleaning it up.

It is sad to say because 80 percent of the country is hurting, but maybe it was meant to be that Mr. Bush stayed in office for eight years to expose the Republicans for what they really were. Now the American voters know who the real leaders are. Democrats will be in power for decades to come. Number 1 issue on voters mind is the republicans voted with Mr. Bush for Wall Street.......but voted against Obama and a stimulas bill for the American people. They drove themselves right over a cliff and will never be able to climb back up.

Closely Watching   February 28th, 2009 8:41 pm ET

Yep, I have to agree with most of the posts here...as long as the mean-spirited attacks on the dems and the rest of us who are tired of the way this country has been run under the republicans continues then President Obama et. al. has nothing to worry about. Coulter, Limbaugh and Hannity are about as funny and sophisticated as a group of third graders hanging out on the playground swapping flatulence and potty jokes. Keep it up youse guys, you are slaying us with your humor.

When will Republicans learn? Tax breaks as a sole strategy only works when you HAVE money. For those of us with little to no money, giving us back a piece of our tiny pie is not going to help the economy or the individual. It only benefits those with a larger piece of the pie to begin with. If you have a lot – you keep a lot. If you make a little, you keep a little. ......Oh wait, that was the whole idea.....keep the poor poor and the rich richer. The information technology generation has arrived and you can't fool them by saying you love America and then using the "less government" mantra to keep government from allowing you to pillage the less fortunate Americans who lack the finances to thrive under Republican leadership.

Give a brilliant centrice, moderate, or liberal any day. At least they can think, plan, carryout, succeed. Remember the peace and prosperity days of Clinton. They were all jealoous of him as they are now of Obama. Poor, lost, irrelevant, unnecessary, unwanted, unrespected, even HATED repugs.

sizzlelean   February 28th, 2009 8:35 pm ET

Gawd, the jealousy and ignorance of the Ann Coulter haters is truly astounding. What is it about liberals that make them detest intelligent, beautiful, successful women? Is it the lack of intelligent, beautiful successful women in the dem party? Probably. Smart, strong women don't need the government as their surrogate husband/"baby daddy". It's a shame that your lips are glued to the teet of big government, but on the plus side, it does keep you occupied – sucking and constantly whining for a new hand-out.

Well keep on writing your little snide remarks and ad hominem attacks on a blog because you'd pee down your leg in fright if you ever tried to debate her. It's obvious that you'd rather try to censor her than debate her. She is an author that meticulously footnotes her sources. It must be the facts that scare the liberals so much.

Otto   February 28th, 2009 8:35 pm ET

This is fun and every day it's gets better. With the likes of Rush and Ann, they can do no wrong. Geroge Bush had fun with them and where did it get him?

I'd like to see more of Ann and Rush also the guys who wrote the forward thinking on Neo-conservatism. We need more of those people because in the end, they are an end to their means.

Americans were not frightened by them this past election and expect the same garbage, onlt that it gets stinker. Come 2010/2012, we need not wish them bye bye! They'll all be none events lead out to pasture like wild animals.

At least Ann has some balls. To all you dems, listen to what she has to say. It all make sense, maybe just for me who used to live in socialist "comunist" country, which Poland was before 1989. What is going on in "socialism in making 101". It didn't work in Polan, it didn't work in Russia. Why do you think it's going to work here?
Most of you democrats are listening, reading to pro Obama media. What you know about conservatism are some excerpts given to you by your media. I urged you to switch that dial once in a while to see what other side has to say. I do it myself to be closer to truth.

All this retoric is the same as 1992 when Clinton took over, it lasted until 94 when the Democrats got wiped out in the mid term election. Instead of whining here, you should be researching tax shelters to protect some of your hard earned income from your president. Opps, forgot again, most Democrats don't pay taxes.

Red, North Carolina   February 28th, 2009 8:30 pm ET

Oh Ann...please, go find a nice fat, bald, white guy....(Rush comes to mind...) get married, get laid, have some kids, and find some happiness and joy, will you. How can the Christian Conservative crowd take you seriously without those bonafides?

Paul   February 28th, 2009 8:30 pm ET

In their speeches, Limbaugh and Coulter talked so much about getting the GOP back in power, but not one idea was uttered about what the GOP should do when they get there. Rush says the focus should not about the issues, but about the overall philosophical differences. Coulter seems to think mindless redicule is the way to regain American confidence in the party of Reagan. NO, DUMMIES, IT'S ALL ABOUT THE ISSUES! Obama and the Democrats are at least trying to solve the problem. If the GOP wants power back, they need to come up with a better idea!

Tim from WI   February 28th, 2009 8:29 pm ET

Just read the comments in the Ticker article
'Pawlenty urges GOP outreach to 'Sam’s Club voters'
to see the left in all its hate filled glory.
As a low income conservative libertarian/republican (mostly libertarian views) I am wondering when its become fashionable and OK to say such things about the right (not all are members of the GOP). If these things were said about a minority it would be considered hate speech. (I guess it does matter who you are insulting after all and hate against a 'group' is OK if that group is unpopular huh?) When have I seen this before in history I wonder?

Sure does seem to prove my point of .....

A plethora of hate directed at Ann Coulter while describing how full of hate SHE is.

The irony is stunning.

After eight years of listening to the hate spewing and vomiting forth from many on the left, aimed at the right, has turned the left into the very hatemongers they claim the right is.

I read the comments for months now, on this site and others, and I am realizing the left is transforming themselves into the very thing they fear and despise.

Stereotyping, hating, close minded, sexist, race baiting, nasty, foul mouthed, humorless, angry, spite filled, vengeful, arrogant, snobs.

(and don't forget foolish looking for claiming the right are the very things they demonstrate themselves to be(not alleged but their very own words display it for the world to see))

Lynda   February 28th, 2009 8:28 pm ET

The Republicans are hopeless. As long as they fearmonger, hatemonger, and worry that we might help our fellow Americans, they will remain what they are today. Irrelevant. I am tired of hearing government can't help the country. If you feel this way, DON'T RUN FOR OFFICE. We don't want to pay Republicans to do what they have done for the last eight years, which is NOTHING! That is why we are in this mess. The American people have longer memories than that media. Don't aid Republicans in their attempt to undermine a truly well meaning president.

podo3500   February 28th, 2009 8:28 pm ET

The best candidate for the GOP is ,Newt Gingrich. Not bcs he could beat Obama in 2012, but bcs he is the only one who can best rally the Republican party during this period of doubts and confusion.
All the other candidates are obsessed with Conservativism , which unfortunately failed for the past eight years. Sarah will be good for 2016. Reasons bcs she needs time to get over the insults she said about Obama, which unfortunately did not work. Mitt Romney, is a good guy, but the fact that he is selling some of his Mansions , means he is broke, and the GOP doesn't need such a leader. The fall of Wall Street hit him HARD? .Poor Rudy, got merely %3 percent? What really went wrong? Ann Coulter, got nothing out of her jokes. People just laughed at her stupidity. Poor Ann, she never knows how to cry low. Ok lets not fight, this is not the right time. We got a properly deserved elected president. He appreciates your fervent support . Don't let the Americans down. Without the GOP, with all that chunk of money in offshore banks, which is helping to run the US economy and banks down, how can the private sector create jobs in the USA? Obama was right. Conservative bunkers.

Annie just says what we Conservatives know in our hearts. We do not need teleprompters. We do not need to be accepted. we do not need anything, and all liberals and socialists and demorats can say whatever they wish against us. Never mattered. Never will. We believe in the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence . It doesn't change. And we aren't going anywhere. Oh, yeah. Another thing. We will never, never, never give in or give up.

This person was really born about 80 years too late and in the wrong country. Can't you just see her in a uniform with swastikas on it running around Germany blaming Jews and gypsies for all the problems?

irene   February 28th, 2009 8:27 pm ET

the ranting and ravings of a frustrated old maid.,maybe she could hook up with limbough,a match made in heaven.

Juan   February 28th, 2009 8:26 pm ET

The country need people with a head between the shoulders, big mouths and brainless, talking in base of their own reactions target only un-educated citizens, This Ann and Rush are also rehab people from Drugs and alcohol, is very un-healthy, I'm very surprise how the media open the door to this guys, Also Glen Beck and O'Ralley.

mj   February 28th, 2009 8:26 pm ET

She's a hate monger and a terrible person.

Dennis Paul Hastings   February 28th, 2009 8:26 pm ET

Men are from Mars, women are from Venus, Anne Coulter is from Uranus. It's that simple.

I'll bet she hasn't had sex in years. With a giant adams apple a-bobbing, and all the eye rolling she is an incredible and strange artifact of conservative thought.

But many, many, people buy her books because it's easier to hate someone than it is to work out a solution. America has become a sad, strange place.

m.k.   February 28th, 2009 8:24 pm ET

The Republicans are in worse shape than I imagined. I guess newt and the coulter witch should shack up and have a bunch of idiot children who could carry on the mantle of the Republicans thirty years from now.

Heywoode Jablome   February 28th, 2009 8:21 pm ET

Ann Coulter is a cross dressing male bigot who appeals to the lowest common denominator of humanity. Love the huge adam's apple! Her ilk like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, etc,. know it's over for the pathetic conservatives. Isn't it fun to see them twist in the wind and oppose everything that is just? The republican party is history. Thank God and good riddance!

johnrj08   February 28th, 2009 8:20 pm ET

AS MUCH AS I'D LIKE TO, I'm going to refrain from saying what I really think of Ann Coulter. Suffice it to say, she doesn't really matter in the scheme of things and, for all intents and purposes, she is nothing more than an example of brilliant self-promotion and opportunism. She has staked out the ideal terrain for a person who seeks to be a lightning rod for controversy and political conflict. If you really listen to what Coulter says, she sets herself up as the Rosetta Stone for translating conservative ideals into pop culture terms. She hits all the right buttons, hoping to elicit exactly the kinds of reactions we're all reading here. She snarfs as she reads them, hearing the cha-ching of future speaking engagements and book deals. In the end, she contributes nothing to the dialogue in this country other than her personal aggrandizement and belligerent intolerance of opposing views. The best thing that the people who disagree with her could do is ignore her. I keep saying this, realizing that I'm playing into her hands just by saying that. Bullies go away when they can no longer get the fearful, angry reactions they're looking for. Forget Ann Coulter. Focus on things that have some meaning. She doesn't.

mel   February 28th, 2009 8:19 pm ET

conservative bashing is about what I would expect here. Franklin and Hamilton would be considered morons to inlightened liberals. That silly constitution just leads to hatemongering by conservatives. Lets just do away with it for a more intelligent society that Obama is giving us. It really doesn't matter that some guys over in Russia tried the same ideas. Wonder how it worked out for them? I'm sure its got to be better than that stupid bill of rights.

Sheri   February 28th, 2009 8:19 pm ET

People like Coulter and Limbaugh etc., are the reasons why the GOP is down and the republican policies STINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dwallace   February 28th, 2009 8:18 pm ET

Noone from CPAC, with all the rhetoric, complaints, pundents and comments have said anything about the plight of the American people and how they can fix it. Yet they let loud mouths like Rush and Ann do the talking while the Republicans hide behind their coat-tails and villify the President of the United States Barack Obama how do you expect the world to respect and feel about our leader.

After that speech from Rush I know the world has said it is a sad day in America but of course (it is free speech) what a jerk.

Jackie   February 28th, 2009 8:18 pm ET

Rush is right, when is O'bama going to make the "be the best you can be" speech rather than "don't worry, the governnent will take care of you".

Obama 2012   February 28th, 2009 8:16 pm ET

Please...if the republicans want people to see who they truly are then they need to stop all of this bickering and name calling towards the Democrats.

They have not told, in detail, what their mission or vision is-they're just bashing Obama, his administration, & Democrats.

Who can decide if they want to join the RNC when all the information they are getting is teenage rhetoric.

a7m   February 28th, 2009 8:16 pm ET

It is pitiful to see how aging makes conservative women bitter. She is not even funny– just bitter.

sandee in Portland   February 28th, 2009 8:15 pm ET

Coulter gives women a bad name. It's either her way of thinking or no way. Everyone else is wrong. Every interview she gives, the moderator doesn't even get a chance. She's a rude, obnoxious, venom filled woman. If she's so great, why doesn't she run for office? Could it be because she's only in it for the money from her books and speeches? Ya think! And to think there are actually people who buy her books is unfathomable.

Anyone else notice the attendees at the CPAC are all white. Where are the hispanic, asian, blacks, indians, etc.? These conservatives are what's wrong with the republican party. Until republicans become more moderate, the general populace will not vote for them again. We don't want people telling us we have to believe in God, telling us what we can and can't do with our bodies, telling us if we don't believe like they do, we're not good people.

Having said all this, I was a republican for over 30 years, but when the conservatives became so powerful in the party policies, I switched to independent. As long as the conservaties are in charge of the party's candidates, I will never vote for a republican for any office.

Zion   February 28th, 2009 8:15 pm ET

John in FL   February 28th, 2009 8:14 pm ET

Who is worse: Ann Culter spewing stuff about Dems and Obama, or all you bloggers that are spewing things about her, Rush, McCain, and Bush?

Do any of you really think she reads this stuff?

If you want to discuss something with someone that disagrees with you, I will challenge any of you to a debate. I think that is a better use of time than throwing nasty insults.

Ann Coulter is one of my favorites, because she continues to speak the truth with humor even though empty headed left wingers like the ones on this blog continue to hurl insults at her.
There's no hate like the hate that comes from you liberals!

The extreme right wing nuts like Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh are really a turn off to the normal republicans. They are mentally twisted beyond repair. They are setting the standards for core values?

Obama - NOPE   February 28th, 2009 8:12 pm ET

Ann is great. Rush is great. Sean is great. Americans need to sober up from their temporary state of Obama inebriation. When they do – as they will – the clear and sensible voices of Coulter, Limbaugh, and Hannity will help them through the hangover.

Sheri   February 28th, 2009 8:12 pm ET

I cannot stand Coulter

Julie   February 28th, 2009 8:11 pm ET

It amazes me how mean and evil the Republicans are. They are so full of themselves.They act as if they are the only Christians going,but, their thoughts are not on what they can do for their fellow man. Everything that they say is to degrade and denigrate someone else. How can you claim Jesus on one hand and sputter hatred in the other.? I do not believe that they will ever rise to power again. Their days are gone forever. Most of America has mover way past this devision. They will continue to find themselves in the minority.
Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter need to fast and pray the hate demons out,otherwise, they will find themselves in hell one day.

doolin1   February 28th, 2009 8:11 pm ET

How sad that a philosophical movement has abandoned ideas. Conservatives, I have figured out what you are against. Remember any fool can burn a barn down. Socrates suffered from this syndrome even as brilliant as he was. Criticism has it limits. At some point, life is all in, and obviously you have said no to that as well. Ideas are the key to creation, not endless entreaties of "I'm against it."

Jeff - Austin, TX   February 28th, 2009 8:11 pm ET

If Ms. Coulter is such an ideal conservative, then why isn't she following the conservative ideal for her sex by shutting up, sitting down, staying at home and popping out babies?

Ariesgirl   February 28th, 2009 8:10 pm ET

Yay for Coulter!!! I am so tired of all of you Democrats and Hollywood thinking all of America feels the way you do. I think Hollywood needs to keep to their acting and keep their thoughts to themselves. I will never go see another movie of Sean Penn, Ben Afflack, Scarlett Johannson and almost all the Hollywood actors who supported placing Obama in office. My money will not got to these people who feel they can use their success to push their opinions on everyone else. So yay for Coulter. You go girl and God Bless America!!!!!!

dave from Dayton, OH   February 28th, 2009 8:10 pm ET

The CPAC just doesn't get it. This entire event has paraded one Repub after another out with the same venomous words used during the campaign...and that's all I hear from them now. Nothing has changed...and if they don't find better representatives and a newer platform to run on, they won't have a chance in 2010 or 2012...not that I care.

Interestingly a 53 to 46 percent win is mediocre...I'm sure if the election had skewed 53/46 the other way to McCain, they would have labeled it a mandate.

Just more of the same...which will get the Repubs the same results...which is good for Obama.

Mike, FL   February 28th, 2009 8:08 pm ET

No one should be surprised! What Reps refer as conservatism is nothing more than a philosophy of hate against anyone who is not from the religious right or ultra rich!

bob golden   February 28th, 2009 8:07 pm ET

I am pleased to see conservatives finally standing up for freedom, reduced government, and logic. Democrats claimed they would solve the problems with the mortgage industry. Instead, they are bankrupting us with over 9,000 lines of pork for their friends - how does any of this solve our singular, important mortgage and credit "crisis"? I am sickened by this President. He is showing himself to be an egomaniac. He has lied. He is dividing the country - he said he would unite us. what exactly is in his stimulus that unites anybody except him to his pathetic voters in search of handouts from the successful. This man is a joke. Even I am surprised – i thought he would be better. Honestly i did.

Pam   February 28th, 2009 8:07 pm ET

Every time I see that Ann's been back out there spewing venom in the name of the Republican Party I draw a big sigh of relief. As long as she, and people like her (aka Rush Limbaugh) are out there the Republican Party will never get back on it's feet. The few people left who rally around their sort of hate and bile are welcome to it. The days of the all white, evangelical power elite who will lap up Ann's nonsense are over. She just can't fathom it and neither can those like her. That's OK, keep them distracted and keep them busy with the same old garbage they've been spewing for years, it doesn't work any more, but they don't need to know that.

Glen   February 28th, 2009 8:05 pm ET

Ah please don't insult the President he is a Democrat and he really is just doing his best. Democrats are just such sweet sensitive souls. We never ever said a nasty thing about the previous president and we want the Republicans to do the same. I believe Obama should be treated the same way Bush was treated, with all the disrespect a nation can muster.

Stella H   February 28th, 2009 8:05 pm ET

Why don't the Republicans get some real people to represent them. Limbaugh is a recovering drug addict, and he looks kind of queer. Coulter is a man in drag. Get real and give some explanation of how we are in the predicament today. It is not because of the poor people, it is because of these greedy s.o.b's.

Brad   February 28th, 2009 8:02 pm ET

What Ann Coulter has lost sight of is that you cannot both insult and influence people at the same time. She is very good at insulting people. She can throw red meat and provacative cliches to the crowds of true believers...much like the preacher who preaches to his or her own choir.

But can she influence anyone else? No! Can she expand the conservative base? No! Can she persuade anyone who disagrees with her to change their minds? No...she is too busy insulting them. She makes more enemies for conservatives than she will ever make friends for them.

Ann Coulter is a prime exhibit when is comes to the reasons why conservatives are out of power...and deservedly so. They think that they are smarter and better than everyone else who disagrees with them. Whoever disagrees with them is stupid...or doesn't believe in God the way that they do...the list goes on and on...

IndependentfromTexas.   February 28th, 2009 8:01 pm ET

If their prominent leaders are Palin, Phony Romney, Rush Limbaugh, Crazy Huckabee, that should tell American something. And now you have this idiot Coulter doing a speach?

How low will this party go? Obviously lower.

No Republican in the White House for 100 years.

Lost in Texas FOREVER   February 28th, 2009 8:00 pm ET

Coulter, Limbaugh, Hannity, Joe the Plumber and the GOP wants to be back in power by 2010? Unless President Obama royally screws up or the voters go into a fog like they did in 04 it appears the Dems will be in control until past 2012.

Julia   February 28th, 2009 7:59 pm ET

I think Democrats should embrace this woman. She should be heralded everyday with everything she says put in print and on television. That way, every time we read the words and see and hear this silly woman, we can be constantly reminded that she is the Republican poster child and why Democrats are firmly and safely in the majority on every level of government. The vast majority of Americans find her foolish and childish and she has found a great audience in the GOP to continuously line her pockets by feeding their hatred and fears. The Republican's have a well-paid evil clown.

This is for "Joyce", I understand your pain, it is happening all around us and your absolutely right. The cynism of the conservative base, they insult Obama for trying to fix what Bush did the last eight years.

It is scary to see someone like Coulter comment on something they destroyed, "America." These people have no values and no limits to their cynism.

I hope American will not vote for another Republican in many decades, we all saw what the last two did.

scott s   February 28th, 2009 7:56 pm ET

JoAnna Toth   February 28th, 2009 7:56 pm ET

I find it ironic how Republicans like Ann call themselves conservative Christians, wear crosses around their necks, yet dress as though they are going to a local bar looking for a date, are addicted to and would do anything to obtain wealth and power and have absolutely no concern for the poor or helping others..these thoughts and actions of theirs are in direct opposition to what the bible teaches and what Jesus himself would do...hypocrits do us all a favor and take five minutes out of your day and look at yourself in the mirror, than go find a church pew and make some changes on yourself, this would help our world and you more than anything.

NV, NYC   February 28th, 2009 7:56 pm ET

Ms. Coulter is very entertaining, but she is always speaks her mind and minds of many conservatives. She is always right, at least, according to me. If you want to hear the truth, listen Ann Coulter.

Craig Nazor   February 28th, 2009 7:55 pm ET

As long as CPAC "Conservatives" (there is really nothing conservative about them anymore) claim people like Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh as their leaders, they are not going to be given the chance to lead by the electorate. Don't believe me, just keep it up and find out. I hope they have a workshop on "Working Well with Others" at their convention – they appear to really need the skills!

Mel of Alexandria, Virginia   February 28th, 2009 7:53 pm ET

As go the leaders so goes the party. The people are far smarter than some of our leaders want to admit. When Ms Coulter and Rush are the standard bearers, America will not be well served by such a party.

PoHo   February 28th, 2009 7:53 pm ET

Ann Coulter is inconsequential. She's trying to be controversial but she's just a rerun of herself. It's pretty stale at this point.

Wisest one of All   February 28th, 2009 7:52 pm ET

Ann Coulter is brilliant, beautiful and sexy. That is why people posting on my blog here are jealous of her. Proven Fact!

She sure has the number of the racist empty suit hussein nobama. Another Proven Fact!

Uday Lama   February 28th, 2009 7:51 pm ET

Did I hear someone say circus freaks – those jokers, Limbaugh and Coulter? Of course, that's what they are.

Need I say more? Of course, not.

Donna   February 28th, 2009 7:51 pm ET

To "Hey Go Back to Europe", I really have thought about doing that. You liberal Democrats are ruining our country. At least the GOP aren't a bunch of liars and crooks like Obama and his cabinet members. If George Bush had selected a cabinet like Obama has, the press would have been all over him. There is absolutely nothing Obama does that his followers consider wrong. He could snort cocaine in front of national television and MSNBC, CNN, and all the other liberal stations would say that the pressure is becoming to great for Obama, he had to have some sort of release. They will come up with an excuse for everything he does. Don't be ditching on Coulter or Limbaugh when you have people in your party and most of the media who say much worse about Republicans,( Bush, Palin, McCain, Hannity, Beck, etc.) I'm sick of your dumba$$ double standards and I'm sick already of what Obama has done to our country.

A majority of the American people have become total idiots and do not want to even really listen to any factual comments about Obama and his cronies. We are in for a long, hard haul and things are going to get much worse, not better.

Ann Coulter is wonderful. She has no fear. All of those who hate her do so because she is incredibly effective at exposing the hypocrisy of the liberal wacko left. She is brilliant. I am astounded at her intellect, her wit and her courage.

I say, "Bravo, Ann! Go get them." It gives me extreme pleasure to see her excoriating the left and the "trojan horse presidency" of Obama. His extreme liberal side is beginning to show now that he doesn't have to appeal to the center.

Eventually, the bloom will be off the rose with this guy. I can hardly wait. The naive young folks who voted for the nebulous concept of "change" are in for a very discouraging and disillusioning experience as he spends our country into oblivion, ostensibly for the purpose of saving it.

The only good democrat is a defeated democrat.

Pat   February 28th, 2009 7:49 pm ET

I am very dissappointed in the Republican party. I don't have a problem with them disagreeing with President Obama, but they are just downright disrespectful, offensive, and mean spirited. They are beginning to look more and more like a hateful sect. The list of potential leaders they have come up is nothing more than a list of left overs...they are so self indulged they can't produce anything new if they tried. to.

Nathan   February 28th, 2009 7:48 pm ET

The fact that this woman is always so mean spirited means that she has nothing to say. Her comedy is used to cover her lack of intelligence. Fortunately for her the conservatives in this country are at a intelligence level where she comes off as being smart. She's also quite unattractive.

cruiserGT   February 28th, 2009 7:48 pm ET

Before we all blindly blow this lady off... we might want to go read a book... the "Constitution of the United States of America" is a recommended read and would be a great start.

There you will find the original book of "NOs" and the source of all Miss Coulter and Rush's material.

Patty in the CA mountains   February 28th, 2009 7:48 pm ET

Hmmmm.....between her and Limbaugh....tough call....which one is more abrasive and abusive, or more of a liability to the party since they offend most of America? Republicans will have to get a clue before they can move forward.

Kathleen   February 28th, 2009 7:47 pm ET

Is this woman a Catholic? She is always wearing a cross – yet she is mean and hateful to every human being. Shame on her and Hannity for claiming to be practicing christians and then speak the way they do about the human race.

rmanuto   February 28th, 2009 7:46 pm ET

Well, there she goes again. Pretty, inane but ultimately she give us pointless prattle. We are down to ruling a nation with one-liners, dumbing down Americans with her every breath.

geno   February 28th, 2009 7:46 pm ET

Here comes the idiocracy of the "no brain" crowd (speaking to you Rob), enjoy. If I had no decency, I'd take a job as a loud, intolerant beoch or anti-American like Limp-baugh and Cult-ler. (yes, I realize that I just lost my decency by name calling, but hey I'm sure these people who live on doing that for a profession don't mind). I'd take Obama's administration over Bush's side rodeo show any day.

Hey, worshippers of the Great Osambo Mambo: what, you think Joy Behar, "Catherine the Great" Couric, Rose O Fat O Donnell, Miz Griffin, Whoopie (no whoop), with all their sarcastic, bombastic, insulting drivel is anything less than what Ann does? Sorry, friends, it's worse. At least Ann will occasionally direct you to some proper sources, questions and philosophical thought. The others are just public puppets of poisened pus pocket Princess Pelosi. I admit that Ann needs to occasionally tone it down, but she finds it so easy to bait your little minds and big mouths, we find it laughable. What, you want everyone to be civil and be your friends? We've yet to see you do the same. By the way, the average conservative really doesn't notice her looks. . . . .really. We actually lust after the bimbo Dems hoping to conquer them.

AdamSmith   February 28th, 2009 7:45 pm ET

Okay, so Ann is often over the top – even sometimes a bit offensive to those on the left. But hey, we've got Ann and the Obama-whackos have Rachel Maddow. Both can be terribly annoying to the other side. But at least Ann is way easier on the eyes!

Do you guys ever report anything positive on Democrats? You know, the people in power now. The ones who kicked your beloved Republicans out of office. The ones with the high approval ratings as opposed to these bozos you're covering so lovingly.

What kind of journalist do we have in this country? Apparently the only thing you know how to cover at all after 8 years is Republicans and their silliness. They are now IRRELEVANT!!! Even Boehner knows it when he told his people on the Hill that they are no longer legislators since they can do absolutely nothing about anything in the Congress. Nothing at all. Why are you still covering all these IRRELEVANT bozos? Can you not find a single Democrat who will talk to you?

Walter   February 28th, 2009 7:43 pm ET

Ann Coulter is the DEVIL. From here mouth speys nothing but hate and bias remarks that are neither true or newsworthy. Yet the repugs soak up her and rush as they are the annoited ones.

The Coultergeist   February 28th, 2009 7:37 pm ET

Coultergeist, the Comedian Rush Limbaugh, Billo the Clown, Michelle Malkin!!!

This truly is what the Republican party has become. Insensitive, intolerant, race baiting, immigrant and gay bashing, tax cuts, tax cuts, tax cuts, party of NO. Like to put the minorities up front as their tokens.

Problem is, we will vote for them again. We have short memories.

Thank you, thank you, thank you Coulter, and Rush! (And CNN for letting the American people watch 2 major "conservative" "patriots" spew their venom against everyone who doesn't share their views).

And the C-PAC audience is just precious!!

Tom   February 28th, 2009 7:35 pm ET

To Mike in NYC...

Yeah, and Bush had a "Large Mandate" because he won 51%-49%. He and his staff went around for weeks saying how that showed that America supported his policies and that now wasn't a time for any dissent.

In fact, the supposed "Liberal Media" then proceeded to regurgitate that talking point, stopped asking Bush and team any tough questions, and definitely didn't always have on a democrat to give their opinion on every move for "balance".

53%-46% is the largest mandate since Reagan.

Marge   February 28th, 2009 7:35 pm ET

Limbaugh and Coulter....doesn't that show everyone what kind of taste the republicans have. AND they want to gather people into their party...gee whiz....what a hoot.

If you make under $150,000 a year, you will be eligible for a $500 individual refund, or a $1000 refund for a family, every year.

The Tea Party's who are out protesting against Obama's spending spree.
You watch and see how big this gets.

Chris   February 28th, 2009 7:31 pm ET

This woman is just hate filled! I know it is rather a cheap shot to compare someone to the Nazis but every time I hear her talk about liberals – how they are all evil, weak, conniving cowards who secretly want to destroy this country – I can't help thinking of the old Nazi propaganda. Her writings remind me of the same style and tone of the way Nazis talked about the Jews.

RRose   February 28th, 2009 7:30 pm ET

Rush and Ann are the living pits. I just happen to turn on my tv and there was all these people jumping up and down at Rush's comments and I thought what would this world be like with these crazy people at the helm.one thing I did learn though ,the fact that Rush was having lunch at the white house (The Obama's house now the one that the slavesbuilt)! tells me why Bush made such a mess of things for the last eight years.Did anyone say anything constructive today? all I heard was slamming Obama/Biden. Get a life Rush!! hate and jealeousy along with prejudice will eventually kill you.

But, Rush was entertaining...that sums up the GOP!!!! It's okay to give criticsm, but not without a solution. And the movement proofed tonite that they are not and will never be a party that is inclusive.....They have a long way to go.

Art Michaelson   February 28th, 2009 7:29 pm ET

She is truely a nut case. Any person with or without an advanced education would recognize that she is a SOCIOPATH in deep need of professional therapy.. But wait. She has learned how to use her education and training as a theatrical SHTICK which has translated to mucho USA DOLLARS. The real question is why does the T/V media continue to give her the exposure she so earnestly seeks. Why is she invited as a speaker at COLLEGE campuses. She is not educational but a hate filled BIMBO weho has learned to turn a BUCK. Did you know that she needs private security guards to travel with her?

Cindy   February 28th, 2009 7:27 pm ET

For some unknown reason, they can not think beyond their noses. This stimulus package that is being proposed may sound great, however in doing simple mathamatics, how is it ever going to be paid for.

Wake up AMERICA, and all the welfare bums and smell the roses!!!!!!

As Yakov Smirnoff used to say, what a country! Ann Coulter skims the CNN Political Ticker every day, collects all the snide comments, turns them back around at the liberals, makes them into books, and gets paid! And here I am working for a living. Please, Ann, run for President in 2012–otherwise we're going to be stuck listening to Mitt Romney campaign speeches for two years!

Keith Johnson   February 28th, 2009 7:24 pm ET

When Bush beat Kerry by 2.4% percent, she called it a mandate.

When Obama beat McCain by 7%, she called it mediocre.

Can we say, partisan hack? Beyond entertainment, why is anyone paying attention to her?

Cheryl from Minnesota   February 28th, 2009 7:24 pm ET

Coulter, You and the GOP are people that spread hate and racism. Just as McCain and Palin did during their campaigning. America does not need people running our country like you. Keep talking, keep spreading hate, and you won't win the next election. Hatred, racism, GREED, selfishness, this is the GOP party.
No the problem is the party allowed itself to be hijacked and gave up the values of fiscal conservatism for social conservatism.

The party was at its best when it stood for less taxes, less government intervention.

But the last 8 years has shown that this is the party of NO: "no, you democrats can't spend, only we can", "no you can't do that, the bible says not to, we're going to make it law and the government will make sure you can't".

Get rid of the extreme right and maybe the GOP will survive. This country is right of center on fiscal policies and left of center on social ones.

Coulter=Moron   February 28th, 2009 7:24 pm ET

Coulter just continues to push herself more and more out of the mainstream. For every CPAC idiot guffawing at her stupid out-of-touch jokes there are 10 average Americans turning away from her pointless foolishness.

Whiteowl   February 28th, 2009 7:23 pm ET

Coulter is disgusting. Why the Republicans exhalt her and Sarah Palin has more to do with their lack of interest in what is in women's heads. There have got to be some bright and capable Republican women who can deliver a positive inspiring message....but they seem to not get invitations to speak at these events.
Yes, there is a reason that the country voted for Obama...and it has to do with the fact that the guy seems like he actually talks sense and is a normal human being, besides being smart, accomplished and hardworking. And the Republicans trot out spokespeople like Limbaugh and Coulter to get them excited?
Amazing.

Dear Miss Coulter,

I love you! Everything you say is so beautiful. I can't go a day without hearing you speak. There is nothing that you can say that will ever offend me. (If you're still reading this, you have issues.) Please get her out of the spotlight. I don't know who's worst, Coulter or Paloon. This woman is nuts. She makes Drug Limbaugh look like a genius! I can't believe that the media even pays attention to this loon. Here's what we should do. When CNN post anything about her, don't click on it. They're going to keep this loon in the spotlight as long as we continue to pay attention to this wonderful lady?

Love,
Me

It doesn't say much for the so-called "Democratic viewpoint"
That said, the future of our country is in big trouble....

This is what America needs, good honest news coverage.

How does CNN see this as news? Is there not a KKK meeting around? How about skinheads?

News is where the main body of the Republican Party or the main body of the Democratic party's beliefs are.

Please stop pretending to report the news, your dramatizing every little event trivializes you and your audience.

CHUCK   February 28th, 2009 7:20 pm ET

the only good thing about Ann Coulter is that she has nice breasts. she is also one sleazy broad. I would like to lock her and liberal Randi Rhodes in a walk in closet and let them go at it. I don't want to watch and they do not have to be naked. just want to lock them in and walk away. CRAZY CONSERVATIVES AND LOONY LIBERALS,,,

GOD BLESS THE MARVELOUS MODERATES AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

The divisive language that comes from the republican party cannot be tolerated anymore!!! Americans let rush and ann know that we cannot be bullied into voting for republican agian especailly with the outdated, do nothing ideas they have been kicking us for years.

End of rant!!

Of course they have no solutions. they are just a bunch of hate mongers.

NIcole   February 28th, 2009 7:16 pm ET

All the people who spoke today are the very cancer of the republicans. We gave Bush time to screw up the country before everyone attacked him. Rush is a loser with a bunch of old followers. I can’t believe the comments they made and how many people believe them!!! We need to think for ourselves. President Obama is just that our president… He told everyone clearly his plans and America voted for him. I am sick of Ann Coulter and all the blind sheep that follow fat Rush Limbaugh. HE is the worst person in the world!!!!!

It's like a delayed affect and then the deer in headlight look appears on their faces...then uncontrolled anger-LOL. Liberals hate this, since they think they all have big brains. It drives these loony leftist nuts! Ann,keep it up girl! I am with you!!!

Debra   February 28th, 2009 7:11 pm ET

The reality is that Coulter is a political prostitute. She'll say or do anything for money. The more outrageous, the better. When a political party rests on the credentials of a Coulter, Limbaugh, Jindal, and Palin, the country is in real trouble because it then has only one Party working on the people's problems. It's fine for me for the Repukes to continue to dig their own grave. What a sorry bunch.

When I like a person it's not because they are baptist or catholic or christian or any other faith or democrate or republican or conservative or liberal. I like them because they are who they are as I am who I am. It is what it is and call me liberal but I just go with the wave of energy and sometimes it's negative and sometimes it's positive I just like the ride better when it's positive. Thank you Melissa

Ok, I've said it before and I'll say (yell) it a hundred more times:

BOTH PARTIES GOT US IN THIS MESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

--"Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey
and car keys to teenage boys".---- P.J. O'Rourke--

Wake up folks, the government is in it for themselves. What other group of people vote for their own pay raises, perks, and the better things in life other than our great leaders. And, they all enjoy this with our taxes!!! These people should have term limits!!!!

Don L   February 28th, 2009 7:10 pm ET

Read all those anti-AnnCoulter diatribes above and what do you see? Personnal attacks without one bit of specific criticism that's valid -the angry people that attack Ann for being an angry person is absolute stupidity. Face it folks, you hate her because she's got your number and tells you to your face exactly what you are.

Republicans comedians laugh on themself to their own jokes.
How pathetic! It's not a party, it's a circus!
They just dicover irony but don't know how to use it! Look like nerds at school!

doug   February 28th, 2009 7:08 pm ET

"Seriously, these people are SO negative. They criticize everyone who isn't exactly like them."

I live in an ultra blue area so just like the ticker shows, yes liberals do hate everyone who is not an Obama worshiper. They don't have one millionith the tolerance of those on the right. Sad, telling minorities that they cannot vote for whomever they want? Libs always hold people back to power their party.

Liberals call facts hate crime, says it all doesn't it?

Woman Voter   February 28th, 2009 7:06 pm ET

Coulter has them all fooled. She makes millions spewing hateful things that often don't make sense. Conservatives rush to buy her books and she just laughs all the way to the bank. Who knows if she really gives a hoot what the republicans do? She learned a long time ago that with them all you have to do is make outrageous statements - the more hate-filled the better– and you will be rolling in money. All she is good at is thinking up hateful insults. She has no policy analysis and her books are filled with factual errors (on purpose?). But, that is good enough for the Republicans and she is happy to take their cash.

Linda   February 28th, 2009 7:05 pm ET

These Conservatives have no problem demeaning the name of Jesus.They call themselves Christians then blaspheme Jesus' name.Coulter and Limbaugh,The American people need to use their heads as well as their hearts and the Bible to find out who they follow. These people used Jesus to get Bush elected. Now they have Haggi,who is the reverse of Robin Hood. He builds up his empire at the cost of the poor and elderly's donations?

Minigoma   February 28th, 2009 7:04 pm ET

Another proof of how the republicans are disconnected from reality:
Ann Coulter is funny..

GWB was a great president..
Sarah Palin is not a category 5 moron, and
Bobby Jindal is the new Obama.

Listen, I don't agree with her most of the time but she is right. The media is absolutely in love with Obama. He got 'Man Of the Year ' for running a campaign. HE HASN'T DONE A DARN THING YET! Are you kidding me?

She can say what she wants, it is her right as an American. Get over it.

Ann Coulter is a frigid old Cun. that can't keep a man.

Muriel   February 28th, 2009 7:01 pm ET

Ann Couler was brilliant as she always is. The measure of her success is revealed by the hate comments on this message board. It is amusing that conservtive women are being criticized for being blondes. They are also beautiful, intelligent and hard working, something the democrats despise. Obama will be gone by the end of the year.

Jeannie   February 28th, 2009 7:01 pm ET

I believe in a couple of years Ms. Coulter will be working at Sam's Club drumming up people to join. The real people who work for a living should shop at local food stores that are locally owned and operated. I couldn't listen to her, even for 1 minute. And for the prescription pill popper Rush L. he's just a scared, fear mongering, contradicting wind bag. He should scare every Republican. Country first, not ego's, will win an election. I'm making it but , willing to give up to pay more taxes. What the wealthy are afraid to give up "money".

Linda   February 28th, 2009 6:59 pm ET

Isee CPAC had Jackie Gleason and his wife talking at their Comittee meeting.They are hilarious. Why did they call him Rush and her Ann.They were very funny and taught me a lot as they remembered the Lincoln,slavery and the Civil war.

Yuck   February 28th, 2009 6:59 pm ET

If the Republican party truely wishes to make a pronounced comeback, they need to rid themselves of the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter and follow a respectable person like Mitt Romney. These two ignoramuses are only taking the Republican Party further into the dark abyss of total stupidity. Don't people realize these two are only doing what they are paid to do.

Ron Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin   February 28th, 2009 6:57 pm ET

I hope Joy from the View sees this and calls Ann out.I sure would like to see them mud wrestle.This just goes to prove what a circus this has been for Republicans.Having Ann Coulter there does make great humor

Ann looks like Rush Limbaugh in Drag....yea you da man by the way are you related to cousin IT of the Adam Family ???.....yea you be da man.... You disrespectful hateful Bimbo ...Good you covered that huge man size neck*** I notice you didn't have any solutions .......just BS and hate not a good example for the Young People

Mike   February 28th, 2009 6:55 pm ET

The CPAC Meeting just showed why the Democrats took over the White House, House of Representatives, Senate, the majority of Governorships and thousands of city and town councils in November.
Not one conservsative there offered a single solution for our problems we are facing – not one. All they did was blast Obama and the Democrats and make fun of them.
Is Obama and his policies an answer to our problems? I don't have a clue, but know what and who the answer is not – Republicans and Conservaties. God help us all.

IT'S A SHAME TO SEE THAT THE ONLY THING THE REPUBLICANS CAN DO AT THIS TIME IS TO BLAST THEIR STINK MOUTHS AROUND POLUTING THE AIR.

SHAME ON THE REPUBLIC PARTY TO HAVE A CRACK HEAD STAND UP AND CLAIM THAT HE WAS GIVING A SPEECH TO THE NATION. NFG

J. Williams   February 28th, 2009 6:53 pm ET

Because Coulter and FOX didn't act as "guard dogs" for Bush.

Jim   February 28th, 2009 6:53 pm ET

The fact that you hate and ridicule Ann and all other conservatives is because you know that these people will never compromise their values and beliefs just to get along with you.

As to bringing people together; what liberal does not revel in their creating and applying labels to groups of people? What liberal does not enjoy cataloging each group' s perceived victimhood? Conservatives see the American people as Americans, not clumps sorted by race, creed and circumstance. All people are created equal, but that in no way guarantees an equal outcome. It is still up to the individual to make themselves successful. No government program can ever do that.

The most hate filled, racist, and condescending people are the liberals. How's that for lumping folks together?

Believe in Unity   February 28th, 2009 6:52 pm ET

Why can't she or Rush for once be friendly. Their remarks are always sarcastic, negative, and divisive. If this is the new GOP prescription, they will soon be a dinosaur.

Stoph in Marietta   February 28th, 2009 6:52 pm ET

She's such a bore...it's sad that the GOP has her and "Flush" Limbaugh as the spokespersons. It's going to make Barry "what me worry?" Goldwater look like Ronald Reagan in 2012. It's a party of white, overtly religious (i.e., they wear it on their sleeves), anti immigrants, pro-war, and anti-abortion (how many have actually adopted an 'unwanted' child?)?

arivera   February 28th, 2009 6:52 pm ET

Keep it coming Ann, between you and Rush the dems will never have to campaign again. I don't know if you really believe what you are saying or if you are just trying to put on a front for a crowd of whites that resemble lynch mobs from yesteryear.

Tina Fey   February 28th, 2009 6:52 pm ET

Yes, she is mean spirited. I only did funny little jabs, because that what we liberals do. I mean, we're the nice, inclusive type, not like those mean conservatives. I'm not condescending or elitist, just funny. And I do like little people.

Donna   February 28th, 2009 6:51 pm ET

The media is the people's watchdog? Then why didn't the people know about the lies that George Bush told in order to start a war?
The Republican's left us with a deficit. Now, they think it's a bad thing. Oh yeah, they had to lie about a war to get to that point. Obama's talking about affordable health care and a good education for all Americans. He's doesn't have to lie about it either.

Debby   February 28th, 2009 6:51 pm ET

The scary part is Coulter was right on with her comments about Obama.

Erik in Real Pennsylvania   February 28th, 2009 6:51 pm ET

HOORAY for Coulter!!!! In one month we "conservatives" are so tired of hearing from "that one". (Meaning the Obama person) So far, it has just been "words"-"Oh, I'll make another speech," he says. The lemmings don't know the difference between quality or quantity. They are so willing to blindly follow Mr. Obama, that they don't recognize it when they are being fed "PAP". Good Gosh!" What idiots! Back in my boy scout days, "all fuse and no bang" added up to failure.

If the Republican party has run out of ideas, what do people think the Democrat party has? They are still the biggest spenders. It is said the Republicans spent too much, but it that an excuse for the Democrats to do it in spades? Many may not like what Miss Coulter has to say, but then, the truth always hurts. To denigrate her looks and bash her, which seems the only weapons that Democrats have, is to ridicule rather than intelligent rhetoric. Republicans deal in facts, Democrats in feelings.

Kevin -- Indiana   February 28th, 2009 6:45 pm ET

I happened to catch a few minutes of the speech. All she did is insult, mock, criticize, and whine. The audience loved it. Seems like the GOP is headed for a long walk in the Wilderness. I had hoped they would wisen up after the last two defeats.

Limbaugh, Coulter, Hannity and others represent what's destroyed any intellectual credibility that conservatives once had.

KM   February 28th, 2009 6:45 pm ET

Yeah, I guess Ann Coulter is pretty funny...if you have a low IQ...

get rid of campbell brown   February 28th, 2009 6:44 pm ET

I cannot for the life of me figure out why the democrats would want to bring back the fairness doctrine. it would basically mean that for every rush limbaugh, ann coulter, and sean hannity, the broadcasters would have to put forth equally idiotic and mindless democratic weasels.I say let the market decide.

the way things are going, it's working out pretty good. while coulter, limbaugh and hannity are inspiring each other and "the republican base" the majority of americans are actually paying attention to real issues and voting accordingly. the fairness doctrine would probably do more harm in the sense that democrats run the risk of having as many idiots on the airwaves as the republicans do now.

I say let them keep tilting at windmills while the democrats clean up the mess that their champions have made

GOP Disaster   February 28th, 2009 6:43 pm ET

Good Grief Abraham Lincoln has to be rolling in his grave what Ann and Rush has done. The scary though is if either one of them where leading the GOP back in 1860 they would have both said that slavery was justify.

She needs food. Give her a good meal and maybe she won't be so nasty and hateful. I love the way the neoconmen adore her. It cracks me up!

Everytime Ann Coulter speaks, the GOP loses more seats in Congress. She is a big hemroid for the GOP, and a shininng example of the hate and the fear that comes out of the Republican Party. You silly Republicans, cant figure out why you lost every seat in the house in the entire New England area?

Ann is just pissed off because her taxes will be going up!! I love it. She is a venomous person and I would be humiliated if I were her parent to know I raised such a poor example of a human being.

And Rush, OMG, anyone who listens to him, I really worry about. By the way, his taxes will go up too! Have to cut down on the meds, Rush!

Kurt   February 28th, 2009 6:39 pm ET

If being conservative is so great, why is it that when we deal with dictatorships, whether they are theocratic or communist, we talk to the moderates and liberals and NOT the conservatives? Also, it shows you how bloody stiff and robotic the conservatives are if they think Ann Coulter is funny

Chad   February 28th, 2009 6:39 pm ET

The CPAC thought it would be a good idea to bring this bigoted, ignorant windbag to speak at their convention? Have they learned anything? I can't wait to see how many more seats the Democrats get in the next election for Congressmen and representatives. Keep appeasing the right-wing fringe in our country and continue to get power stripped.

kevincollins   February 28th, 2009 6:39 pm ET

– Having pulled off their rather mediocre 53 percent to 46 percent victory –

Quite interesting considering Bush won the '04 election by even less a percentage. Then again, "inconvenient facts" are something Coulter's made a career of ignoring.

If the Republican party would make a bonafide effort to be constructive they might be able to add some value. Allowing the likes of Coulter and Limbaugh to represent the party is just irresponsible. I hate it when I see people from either side acting hateful like this, but the fact that these two have become the biggest icons for the Republican party is the main reason I jumped ship. It isn't helpful to anyone.

I had never listened to Ann speak or even read her books. But I did see her on Larry King a couple of weeks ago and how come shes so mad and hates people? Shes just mean..

How can the President fix the Country just being the President? The President needs money to fix this country and thats why he has asked for all those money! FatBoy is clearly a racist bastard.

I find it fascinating that the people in the "party of inclusion," liberals, can only make personal attacks. Apparently they don't have enough ammunition to attack what conservatives say, so this is what they are left with. Aren't we supposed to care about everyone? Anne Coulter is as much entitled to her opinion as anyone on the left. (I'd like to count how many of these comments refer to her as a blond bimbo.)

Coulter, Limpaw and Joe the plumber what a great group the GOP have to pick from. God help us they will never get elected dog catcher if that is the ilk thay invite to their conferences.

The Repugs are so very envious of our wonderful Barack Obama that they don't know what to do or say. SICKO Group. The only one in the group who is worth his salt is Gov. Crist and he comes in last in their straw poll.
I guess they still think we are as dumb as they are. Pathetic bunch.

"...she used what some observers called an anti-gay slur"??

CNN, please confront homphobia for what it is: there is absolutely no dispute that "f--t" is an "anti-gay slur." She denied that she was using it about Edwards, but the uproar was over her use of the word itself more than its implications regarding Edwards.

There is absolutely no reason to be wishy-washy about this, and I am earnestly offended that CNN feels the need to qualify this description in this way.

Joe Wright   February 28th, 2009 6:28 pm ET

The conservatives I know would only visit a leftist liberal blog to read, and almost never comment. What I find interesting are the huge numbers (perhaps it's really only 4 or 5 under various names) of liberals who go out of their way to crash a conservative blog. They are always scared of the right. Even the older liberals are still cowering behind their computer screens in a prepubescent haze.

Bud in NC   February 28th, 2009 6:27 pm ET

Okay your a blonde bimbo, neocon, venomous blah blah blah if you point out others lies. Obama is up to over 200 proven lies from promising to have no lobbyists influencing government to saying he didn't want pac money etc etc way over 200 promises and he lied about all of them. He took every PAC cent given to him, he hired Clintons cronies, his cabinet is full of lobbyists etc etc. How come if someone points out this guy lied about everything to everyone to get elected they are poison? The bible thumpers are loving the fact that Obama has traded a truth for a lie, the Republicans are glas Obama took all that Wal Street election cash and lies daily and or flip flops. The founding Fathers of this nation would be mor ealigned with Coulter than with Obama the bisexual, crack smoking first african american president. Has the public school system failed so bad that people no longer can read betwen the lines? Coulter is a voice crying in the wilderness...

I take solace in watching Ann Coulter's appearance more and more match her toxic personality. Why someone would intentionally watch her do anything is beyond me (or, more appropriately, below me). Ann, enjoy the remainder of your wretched life as a rancid big mouth. Perhaps Rush will share his oxycontin to take the edge off of each of your miserable lives. I have never heard one redeeming statement come out of either of you and I am, frankly, irritated that I have to share the same air as you.

I am posting this comment to voice my complaint with cnn giving a platform to both ann coulter and rush limbaugh. These two individuals are the most ridiculous individuals on the air. More disturbing is that cnn is giving any time to either of these goofballs. I am most concerned that you are allowing these individuals to rant and rave their hate speech on your station. This will be the last time that I tune in unless and until you give a formal apology to the american people that actually elected President Barack Obama. Whether rush or his cohearts want to acknowledge Pres. Obama as the leader of our country, doesn't matter to me, and I am most concerned that you are allowing this hate mongering and, in my honest opinion, unpatriotic language, to be aired, is very unfortunate. I encapsulate this as a current day lynching of the GOP of the President. Absolutely disgusting. Finally, I will make sure that the rest of my patriotic, President Obama supporters, and Americans will provide comments on their levels of disgust, and also discontinue tuning in to CNN until we hear the official apology for giving these treasonous individuals a platform.

In this country's history, those who purposely talk against the President's success, and publicly wish for him to fail, are guilty of treason and traitors are usually hanged. These extremist conservatives, like Ann and Rush, are not representative of what America is, was or should be. If they don't like America, they should leave before they are arrested for treason. All they do is criticize those who are trying to solve some of the most difficult problems America has faced in a long time and instead of trying to help, they try to hurt. Out with them both.

Events like this are actually very good for the progressive causes and the Democratic Party. Every time conservatives lets one of these extremist represent their cause (Coulter, Limbaugh, etc) they further marginalize themselves and alienate most moderates. (I was hoping that Huckabee or Palin would win the straw poll.)

Coulter comes up with racy titles that sell books. Don't get me wrong she is crazy, but she is just trying to fleece the republican sheep for a few more dollars before radical conservatism dies. The problem with ther conservative movement is that have decided to go as far right as possible. I hope you keep being the party of no and then you will finally progress out of the 1940s. When rush and coulter are featured speakers it is time to hang it up. NEWS FLASH: the reason you lost is because no one really believes the way you do, once they really take a look at what you stand for. I am not talking about your talking points i am talking about what the republicans have done to the country.

Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh are prime examples of what is wrong with this country, and big reasons why Republicans have lost big in the last two elections.

That they were invited to speak at this event, and applauded, only shows how out of touch with reality conservatives are.

They both are nasty people who demean others to make a living. Real role models.

adam   February 28th, 2009 6:15 pm ET

It's interesting to me that she uses the Lincoln when talking about the Republican party. At this time in history, the democrats were the conservatives and typically southern party, and the republicans were more liberal and the northern party. It flipped during the time of FDR.

Also interesting "a mediocre 53-46%" margin. Bush won (somehow) 51-49%, yet it was a clear "mandate". Rush Limbough's suggestion about money along the vote percentage helps him as the losing side, but we never had any similar favors with the 51-49 margin. In 2000, Bush lost the popular vote, and it is possible he should have lost the electoral vote. Yet he was president. And not only that, he made government too big and overextended and went from surplus to deficit– what happened to the GOP being fiscally responsible? But I digress, 53-46 is a much clearer majority than either Bush victory, and was much larger than Clinton's first victory. Obama has more of a mandate than Bush, Bush, Clinton, or H.W. Bush could lay claim to.

I said it before and I'll say it again. Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh are the resons way Ronald Regan is rolling in his grave now. Although I'm not a conservative, I believe Ronald Regan was the true embodiment of conservatism and he came up with alternative ideas. Whether or not you agree with Regan's Ideas, he did offer some. This is the one thing Repubs today don't get. It's fine if the don't like the presidents ideas, but just saying "no" is not contributing to solving the problem.

There are smart Republicans out there and they make occasional visits to CNN shows. I wonder what they really think about rescuing their party from the destructive likes of the Coulters, Palins and Limbaughs. These folk go for base in human behavior. Their own words define such demeaning characters. If I were a true Republican, I would be insulted by their tactics.

I'm outraged that CNN is giving airtime to a political action committee such as the CPAC. What is the relevance and rationale for this programming choice? I followed the week long speeches and messages of both the Republican and Democratic parties when they were broadcast and listened to campaigning of both candidates during the election campaign. But CPAC does not represent any elected body of American opinion; instead, it's a MARKETING MACHINE for one very narrow group of opinions that don't even represent an official political party. Are you going to give equal time to the full range of PACs that advocate a variety of causes and ideologies? Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter are at the top of the heap of the most shrill and destructive voices of a frighteningly devisive ideology. Shame on CNN for providing them with an unwarranted opportunity to spew their venomous messages. This is not "freedom of speech" unless it's balanced by equal time for opposing viewpoints.

In fact, listen to them now with Rush Limbaugh speaking at their conference. Republicans are cheering wildly while Limbaugh rants about the stimulus plan designed for once to spend money on the American people.

Happy with new President   February 28th, 2009 5:58 pm ET

Look, people,
I watched both (rush and ann), and reminds me to only one thing.
Begining 1933-34, Nazi and Hitler had somebody for promoting their ideas: Gebels!
This is exactly what this two are. They are the biggest disgrace in America, they represent about 2% of America's population, whining and crying about wealth, taxes, etc.
It just give's me more hope into my President and his ideas.
Yes, we can, and we will! Go, Mr. President!

bill, alabama   February 28th, 2009 5:57 pm ET

Ann Coulter has the personality of a porcupine with PMS.

The woman is simply caustic in nature, and should show the nation an indication of what the conservative arm of the Republican party is like.

JulianG3   February 28th, 2009 5:57 pm ET

Is this site the Daily KOS ? Keep at it Ann, given the remarks here you are making the Left hopping mad. That is a good thing!

ESTEVEZ   February 28th, 2009 5:57 pm ET

YES, THIS MAN IS POPULAR. DOES IT REALLY MAKE YOUR SKIN CRAWL KNOWING THAT A GREAT MAN IS PUTTING THIS COUNTRY BACK TOGETHER OR THE FACT THAT YOUR PRESIDENT IS BLACK.

Brenda(Georgia)   February 28th, 2009 5:57 pm ET

I really cannot understand why the news would give Ann Coulter, and that nut Rush Limbaugh any air time. They are exactly what they stand for with the Republican Party. Bigots, I'm sure all Americans don't have the kind of hatred these people promote against God's people. They can say whatever they want and try to deny the fact that they are racist and hearts full of hate. This country that we all love is in trouble, Put aside all that hatred and get involve and help us.
We have a president that they hate so bad because of his color, that they would say or do anything against him to try and convince Americans that he's bad for this country. If he has all the answer with his old time rhetoric then why don't he call the president and make his suggestions on how everything should be handle. And if so why haven't he did it all ready. I have no respect for Republicans and i if they follow what that nut says then I definitely have no respect from any of them racist pigs .I t's hard to believe Rush has a wife. We shall pray for her and him

G in BR   February 28th, 2009 5:56 pm ET

The Republican mouthpieces have degenerated into a downward spiraling comedy show. All you ever hear is negative talk and negative ideas. There seems to be no end to this foolishness. Meanwhile people are looking at their savings, their jobs and their homes disappear. All the while the Republicans tell jokes and proclaim that President Obama is just plain wrong on everything. Will they ever realize that united we stand and divided we fall? I hope either someone in their camp or some of the Republican voters get it before it is too late!!!

Jarrod   February 28th, 2009 5:56 pm ET

This is why the GOP sucks. There are actually a few with some ideas , like Ron Paul. I dont always agree with him, but some of his points are valid. But the ones the base seems to love are the ones that have no concept of fact or science, have no ideas, and simply mock everyone else. I am a liberal who is open to alternative solutions. All I hear from the GOP is infantile namecalling, not ideas. Thats why I vote Dem.

Patrick   February 28th, 2009 5:56 pm ET

I think she is a smart woman. However she tried to say shocking things to stay in the media spotlight to sell books. She comes from the same breed as moveon.org. All they preach is hate.

Mary, Spokane WA   February 28th, 2009 5:55 pm ET

The Republicans are ignorant, angry fools. Look who they trot out! Limbaugh, Coulter, and Joe the Plumber. That's following Sarah the self-serving sociopath who talks like a word salad and doesn't even know she doesn't know squat. Then there's war monger John McCain who doesn't know how many houses he owns, and thinks he can get away with skipping out on Letterman by lying and showing up on another show. These people are beyond pathetic! Three stooges, move over, you have some competition.

arcane2008   February 28th, 2009 5:55 pm ET

As a life-long Republican, it is sad to see the best and brightest of the GOP polishing their stand up comedy sketch instead of rolling out brilliant solutions that will actually solve our problems.

Looks like I will be voting Democratic again in 2012.

The GOP is all talk. Honestly, just nominate Limbaugh and Coulter already and expose these morons to the rest of the country. Show some real guts by admitting you listen to these two losers so they can finally go away once they get defeated by the very thing they stand against!!

Oregon   February 28th, 2009 5:54 pm ET

patsy in iowa   February 28th, 2009 5:54 pm ET

Coulter is just a performer who should be ignored. Trouble is, she is someone the Antis relate to. If they are anti-Obama, anti-immigrants, anti-public eduation, anti-separation of state and religion, they like Coulter. I know well what she is against – I don't know anything she likes!

Mike in Philly   February 28th, 2009 5:53 pm ET

Has Ann Coulter ever actualled proposed any sort of commentary or critique that wasn't just an insult and put-down? Has she offered any actual insights or analysis of anything, or offered a solution for anything that takes something into consideration, other than party talking points?

Not as far as I know. Her message only resonates with people who already agree with her concept that the only thing anyone should ever say is vitriol and insults. "Us good, them terrible, regardless of what they do".

And a "mediocre" 53% to 46% win? When did Bush win by that margin? In 2004, he won less than 51% to 48%. And less than that, i nthe election before. Sour grapes.

therealmarie   February 28th, 2009 5:53 pm ET

Ann Coulter is the very best thing to happen to the Democratic Party. Less we forget what the unbridled sound of hate looks like.

JWM   February 28th, 2009 5:53 pm ET

She's got every right to say whatever she wants however she wants, and you have every right to hate whatever she says. But I wonder, for all who condemn her venom, are you as vociferous in your condemnation of tools like Olbermann?

Larryk   February 28th, 2009 5:52 pm ET

I think both Coulter and Limbaugh are both bad for the Republican party.

I wish the GOP would realize what these two trashers are doing to the Party. When the GOP started allowing these kind of hate monger's to speak for the party, was the day I walked away.

The Republican party is no longer the party of God, Truth, Family and love of County. I believe in a few years there will no longer be a Republican party, and that's a great shame, as it was once mine, and millions of other's party of choice

Pat F   February 28th, 2009 5:51 pm ET

I LOVE it that liberals who consider themselves SO liberated about women accuse EVERY woman they disagree with of being a bimbo who slept her way to the top! First Palin, now Coulter!

I have no affection for either Palin or Coulter, who I consider to be almost as intellectually challenged as Biden, but the liberal hypocrisy is just so beautiful to behold!

Liberals: You fool no one but yourselves about your moral and intellectual superiority.

Susan   February 28th, 2009 5:51 pm ET

So Coulter and Limbaugh hate Democrats and Obama. This is news? CPAC is preaching to the choir, per usual. Limbaugh's out there painting Obama as a grumpy guy who hates Americans and wants them to fail. Maybe Obama is a realist who doesn't want to get hopes up too high, and expects Americans to take some responsibility for themselves AND their country. Maybe Bush and his flippancy-his wise advice after 9-11??"Go shopping'-may play well to conservatives, but to me, it was as if he had no plan, no concern, and wanted us to forget about 9-11 until it was time to go show Saddam what was up. Then it was all about the evil Saddam, whom we supported because he was keeping Iran under control.
And if Limbaugh can't use the PROPER term for the Democratic party,(he said "democrat party" every other sentence) I think we should all rise up and start calling Republicans the "republic party." For someone who says he sees only Americans out here, he sure can separate us pretty fast into the good guys and bad guys...kind of like Palin. Guess she took a page from the front of his book. And he may not have had a teleprompter, but he sure had an awfully big earpiece (someone feeding him lines??) and looked down at his notes a lot. Bag of wind.

Coulter gives women a bad name. It's either her way or no way. Everyone else is wrong. If she's so great, why doesn't she run for office? Could it be because she's only in it for the money from her books and speeches? Ya think!

Anyone else notice the attendees at the CPAC are all white. Where are the hispanic, asian, blacks, indians, etc.? These conservatives are what's wrong with the republican party. Until republicans become more moderate, the general populace will not vote for them again. We don't want people telling us we have to believe in God, telling us what we can and can't do with our bodies, telling us if we don't believe like they do, we're not good people.

Having said all this, I was a republican for over 30 years, but when the conservatives became so powerful in the party policies, I switched to indpendent. As long as the conservaties are in charge of the party's candidates, I will never vote for a republican for any office.

Well this just about shows America what this crowd is all about. This woman has insulted every race, religion, creed and 9-11 widows. Yes, Ann said the 9-11 widows got rich and were savoring the money from their dead spouses.

She craves attention. SHOCK JOCKETS.

Chris   February 28th, 2009 5:51 pm ET

They still just don't get it. America doesn't need a bunch of stuffed shirts telling each other how witty they are, America wants someone who actually DOES something.

As a recovering Republican, it's clear the party is starting to die. Whigs, anyone?

Sharon - NC   February 28th, 2009 5:50 pm ET

Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter are so effective in boosting the Democratic party that they may as well be de facto members of the DNC.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

Shelley F   February 28th, 2009 5:50 pm ET

Lets all bash Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh.

Others to be bashed? Lets see....

Anyone mention Keith Olbermann? Al Franken?

If everyone (anyone?) posting here had pointed out that there are idiots on both sides of the aisle, I might actually have some hope for true bi-partisanship. Unfortunately, no matter what "side" you are on, nobody wants to point the mirror back at their own party....or perhaps even themselves. Remember, when you point your finger there are 3 pointed back at you. Something to keep in mind while the bashing of Coulter and Limbaugh continues.....

Nothing like stooping to their level eh?

catmom   February 28th, 2009 5:49 pm ET

It's interesting how so many on the right constantly criticizes everything Democrat and Obama all the while doing the very thing they find so horrible. Ann Coulter has spewed some of the nastiest things towards people, for instance the widows of men killed on 9/11, then whine when people called her to task for it.

People like her, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and the other right wing fanatics scream the loudest and whine about everything. Right now Rush Limbaugh is screaming about the stimulus plan. He is whining about no one knowing it will work. Well guess what, we DO know that the Republican plan didn't work.

It is so sad that these people are given the forum to spew their nonsense, making things up as they go and have to answer to know one. Right now they are whining about the Fairness Doctrine saying it is just a way to keep them off the radio. No, it's a way to have someone other than a right wing fanatic respond to the nonsense they spew. What are they afraid of ? In any given city, you can find people like Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity on three, four radio stations spewing their hatred but try finding another opinion. And please don't insult anyone by saying no one listens to Progressive radio.When you have two owners who lean right owning the majority of the radio stations, they control what the people have access to .

Paul   February 28th, 2009 5:49 pm ET

EVER time I've heard Ann Coulter speak, it's turned my stomach. She uses every trick it the book to turn baseless smears into pap for the right-wing conservatives. Her "talks" are content-free, and with her it's all about how much anger you can stir up. When you describe what she does as humor, it is a contradiction in terms. You were probably watching her bust line and noting that she was smiling, and mistook turds for pearls of wisdom.

sandee in Portland   February 28th, 2009 5:46 pm ET

She gives women a bad name. It's her way of thinking only, no one else is entitled to an opinion. It's just like Limbaugh, who just now said Obama forced Northern Trust Bank and Wells Fargo to take money from the TARP. Think good ol Limbaugh better look up his facts. The money they were forced to take was from the first TARP bailout that came from Bush. He spreads just as many lies and garbage and she does. They both make me nauseous and their ideologies are the main reasons I went from being a republican for over 30 years to being an independent. By the way, anyone else notice the CPAC attendees are all white? So much for conservative values. Their values obviously don't include people of other nationalities, whether they're asian, hispanic, black, etc.

6) Hateful rhetoric concerning Arabs, and Islam

This isnt about silencing the right (which I wouldnt mind doing). Its about not suppling air time to right wing fanatics. Im truly dissapointed. On the bright side I hope Rush is the voice of the conservative movement for a long time to come. That will surely mean many many more democratic victories.

That being said, when responders write with ugly comments and sarcasm, then we are no better than the republicans with whom we disagree. People, clean up your acts. If you have something intelligent to say – say it well or leave the posting space to others.

ANDROLOMA, Commerce City, Colorado   February 28th, 2009 5:44 pm ET

Stupid bimbos are stupid. And snobs. So unfortunate and ironic that the people she looks down on look down on her. Her attitude is what's wrong with American conservatives: arrogance without substance. Looking dumb and talking mean is no way to go through life, son.

Damaged goods. Non-productive noise machine. Otiose.

P. D.   February 28th, 2009 5:43 pm ET

Is it just me or are these Cpac meetings becoming more bizarre? Coulter, Limbaugh... these are people who are so hateful and mean-spirited. They are basically telling millions of Americans that they don't deserve the American dream. When I was a young gilr, my family always told me that everybody can have a home. The way I see it now, only the wealthy and rich can succeed. Maybe if Limbaugh and Coulter did a lot of charity work or volunteer for good causes I could say they deserve to be heard. But all they do is tell people how unpatriotic and sinful and wrong they are. Jeez!

Imagine my shock when I turned on my satellite radio (which is usually set to CNN) and heard the squealing voice of Rush Limbaugh. I couldn't erase CNN off of my radio presets quick enough. Limbaugh and Coulter are the true leaders of the hate-based, racist Christian Republican Church Party. They are living proof that this group is both socially and politically retarded.

Earnie   February 28th, 2009 5:42 pm ET

I don't understand why we can't try investing in some other areas in this country again, such as alterntive energy, education, infrastructure and other worthy projects of the like. I have a friend who was upset that we were talking about spending 140 million on the monitoring of active volcanic activity.

I responded with the point that we have been spending nearly 10 billion a month in Iraq for the last several years with only the possibility of a reduction in the next couple of years if things improve. 140 million for something that is going to protect many of our citizens who live near these objects doesn't sound too bad. 50 billion on Education! My god people wake up! Only 50 billion on education. Think what we could have accomplished if half the money from the war(which is easily going to hit a trillion dollars or more once we start pulling back).

Isn't it time to look out more for our own people for a while. Not that we have to stop having contact with the world but we need to invest in ourselvs for a while. What we have been doing isn't working. We need to try something different, and if that doesn't work we keep looking. That is the whole point, survival because time is going to march on and change is inevitable. That is the only immutable fact we now know for certain.

We will be spending the same amount on education for a country of 300+million people, as we were intially told the Iraq war would cost when it was finished.

Have we really been making very wise investments for our country recently?

You be the judge. It's really almost too staggering to think about, the problems we face.

I would still rather be here than in any other country on this planet.

Maybe with a little more compromise we can get some important things done for ourselves and maybe the world.

I'm hopeful but worried. Fear is nothing. We walk forward as we always have.

Peace and security be with you all.

Wow. Democrats get all frustrated when they read and can't comprehend let alone listen to Ann Coulter criticise democrats in simple english and get it. If Democrats can't get their head around Pawlenty's "Sam Club workers" phrase of the day, then republicans can understand why the democrats need to lengthen school days. I disagree that the new generation of "Einsteins" will come from Africa as suggested by one of Canada's new institute for future innovators. Democratic party are like the runnaway train. Dangerous.

WOW!!!! this puts the nail in the coffin for the RebubliCAN'T Party. And to think that they want someone to vote for them in 2012. The RepubliCAN'T Party use to be the whole enchilada, but with Sarah "sexy librarian" Palin, Ann "Rush Bimbo" Coulter, Michael "Shaft/Da@n right"Steele,and Joe the "super-plunger" plumber,they are down to the beans. Very sad!!!

Coulter is hot, smart and conservative which makes you guys afraid. You guys won the election so why are you moaning and griping? If she wasn't a real threat why do 99% of the people commenting here look for ways to denounce her? Simple – you attack what you fear. Even in times when your Obama/Messiah is president and you should be happy but you are still miserable, whining people.

Rick Sutter   February 28th, 2009 5:34 pm ET

Again, you fools are misusing the term "neocon". Did any of you actually attend college? Joe Lieberman is a neo-con. John McCain and George Bush are close. Reagan was a conservative (no neo needed). Coulter is a conservative (although an abrasive one). In a real debate, she would send Obama home crying to his mother-in-law.

Eric   February 28th, 2009 5:34 pm ET

CPAC mine as well be called Hate PAC. With speakers like Coulter and LImbaugh that hate everyone in their country are not the representation the GOP needs right now.

Monica   February 28th, 2009 5:34 pm ET

Really! Limbaugh and Coulter what a pair of egotistical, hateful, lets not let anyone else talk people. She is all about selling her books and seeing her face plastered on the cover. I think she is a model want-to-be. If this is all they've got the Republican party is in big trouble. And we are in trouble if this country elects another one any time soon. Look at the work we have ahead of us healing this country after 8 years of them. And they dare criticize a president who has been in office only a little over a month now. Please, when Joy Bahar asked Coulter in a recent interview if she thought anyone hated her she said no look how many books I've sold. Think again lady. I don't know anyone who even likes you even a little bit.

Lush Limprick is the Head of the Republican Committee!   February 28th, 2009 5:33 pm ET

Your pet boy the shrub's margin was 50.7% to 48.3% now that was mediocre. Yet you stood by and let him spend 5 trillion without a word.

53% to 46% qualifies as a landslide just in the popular vote not to mention the Electoral College votes.

Also, this communist, pinko far left unpatriotic wing-nut finds your blasphemy offensive.

Having watched and listened to this boorish woman for the last few years, I don't think you Americans have anything to worry about for along time...GOP getting elected wise I mean. She actually makes me laugh. I wish Kathy Griffen was hosting Larry King next time Ann the mouth Coulter is a guest.

If Obama is still having a foverable rating inspite of the recent generational theft that reflects on the bilions and trillions of bail-outs, that implies that the majority of the american people has completely deviated from their once general believes of "Amrican dream" to a "Big brother country" is pathetic and unamerica that use to be an envy of the world.

I would like to know whether you intend to "Fact-Check" Limbaugh's claims regarding Pres. Obama's policies? The same of Coulter? If these folks are in fact the leaders and future of the Republican Party, then it has truly parted ways with its history. I am happy that they are able to profit so well from their divisiveness, but their profiteering is at the cost of us all moving forward as a nation. What a shame.

Don't you dare berate the "CNN crowd" for ripping on this pathetic excuse for a human being.

Ann Coulter is the Democratic Party's secret weapon. Ann spews her nasty vitriol and Democrats get elected. Hopefully, her 15 minutes of fame will stretch into the 2010 elections so we can see more blue in Congress. She's like a Democrat's magic potion. Thanks, Ann!

I think she's great.....and there's alot I agree with her. Her books read because they are good.

She is not a celebutard, she doesn't riot in the streets, she doesn't invade and riot in churches....no the democrats do.

@ Mike:

President Obama won roughly 43 or 46 percent of the white vote (myself included). He actually did better than John Kerry did amongst whites. But who cares? I thought blacks, Asians, and hispanics were Americans too. With people like you around it's no wonder why the Republicans will never win again (especially without having minorities behind them- except Steele and Jindal)

As for white guilt... that is so lame. I'll never vote for a Republican ever because of hateful people like you that have come to define the party. Also, Obama won by a 10 million. He had a higher popular vote than Reagan and Bush. That is pretty huge. But I guess facts don't count with you.

And to Rob who commented about hate coming from the CNN crowd - anything blogged here will pale in comparison to the derogatory nature of either Limbaugh or Coulter who fashion their whole ideology on implausible, inflammatory positions designed to fracture our nation rather than build a coalition.

saftgek   February 28th, 2009 5:11 pm ET

Ms. Coulter is certifiably whacked. This is an unarguable truth. Her venomous spewings should send reasonable people running the other way. Sadly, the ultra-Right Wingers are so equally full of venom, they will align with those of their kind.

By the way, this syndrome is manifest in the puzzling popularity of Rush Limbaugh – certainly the most un-American (no, anti-American) public figure of our time. At a time when our country absolutely needs to pull together, Mr. Limbaugh considers "Republicans working with Democrats" to be treason.

Now, it must be considered Mr. Limbaugh does not really believe his verbal nonsense, and it is really about showbusiness and exploitation of the weak-minded. Ultimately, who knows?

If only those in opposition to the Democratic Party's philosophy and platform would engage in reasonable exchange, life would be better in our country. Rather, it seems so many of them – especially those in the public eye – are happier playing the hate game.

Such is life in our country. As a life-long political independent, I wish for – and work for – better for our society.

So CPAC is welcoming Coulter, and they have Limbaugh as a key speaker. Is this their master plan as to how to win back America? What a joke the republican party has become. Michael Steele is like the the blind leading the blind. CPAC and the GOP is so far off track for America it would be laughable if I wasn't a republican at heart. I voted for and supported republicans my entire voting life, until 2008. Palin pushed me away from the party I grew up with, and Steele, Coulter and Limbaugh are keeping me away. I wish Hillary had won the Dem candidacy, but I am a happy Obama republican and will be for the foreseeable future unless the GOP gets it's act together.

Andrew   February 28th, 2009 5:06 pm ET

And with 17,000 troops being added to Afgahnistan, bringing the total to 30,000, we'll still be fighting two wars.

Ann Coulter and her likes are sore losers. They must be wailing when they get back home. But when they are out in the media, they behave like a frog-in-the-well. They can't accept the fact that they are downright negative and would love the President to fail, just because they couldn't digest his victory. Is this Patriotism ????

1fender   February 28th, 2009 5:00 pm ET

Talk about dumb Yea she can do stand up comedy. She herself is the real joke!

"rather medicare 53 percent to 46 percent victory". When was the last time a Republican had that margin in the poplular vote? Been a while as their ideas (or lack of I should say) are always throwbacks to a time the country was ruled by southern white men

When will the Republicans get it. America supports what Obama is doing. We are a nation of mixed races and ideas.The party of southern whites men led by Rush will lose even worse in 2010 as they get their message out that they are the whining, no ideas, do nothing but obstruct party.

Keep it up! You are becoming less relevant all the time to the working American!

Los   February 28th, 2009 4:59 pm ET

Well, you have to keep in mind who she's talking to. These are the same people who wore band aids with purple hearts in 2004. These are the same 13% who think Cheney did a good job. These are the same people who will always believe Obama is not a US citizen.

What frightens me is how the core of the GOP is becoming increasingly indistinguishable from its fringe.

Andre Bernard   February 28th, 2009 4:59 pm ET

I don't if I like the Republicans that much anymore. They are leading the way to a more complicated America. A rebuttal is always good, I actually encourage rebuttal, but I also like the hear solutions. Can they give us their solution? If not, shut up and get back to working for the ENTIRE AMERICA. Are we headed into a quasi civil dispute within our government?

...worshipped by other intellectually challenged, treasonous, racist, confederates...

...and CNN has provided him with the national platform to try and rehabilitate his (and his ilk's) image...

...THROUGH LIES!

Jessica-Independent   February 28th, 2009 4:58 pm ET

These are the types that run my former party ( the republican party) that made me quit. I refused to be represented by such idiotic and divisive pinheads. If Coulter and Limbaugh are the best the republicans can pick to give key note addresses, that just tell you how backward the party is.

cnnnewser   February 28th, 2009 4:57 pm ET

Coulter AND Limbaugh?? What a HOOT! LOL
Just proves the desperation of the republican party. ROFL

jim   February 28th, 2009 4:57 pm ET

and republicans wonder why they lost so many seats in the election.

kathy50   February 28th, 2009 4:57 pm ET

Ann Coulter is hateful, vicious, and just plain mean spirited. I can't believe that anyone would want to listen to her. For being such a "conservative", she dresses pretty sleazy.

Coulter...and Limbaugh are comedians!

Trying Hard to be Nice   February 28th, 2009 4:56 pm ET

This "thing" is foul. That's as nice a comment as you can make about Coulter. And Ann, I don't know who took you to the prom but all of America feels bad for her.

Mike/Denver   February 28th, 2009 4:56 pm ET

Where was Ann when we needed a cheap mascot at our local dog show?

mw   February 28th, 2009 4:55 pm ET

Rush worshiper

Annie, Atlanta   February 28th, 2009 4:55 pm ET

Add to the crazy things they're saying at this convention, including Obama isn't a natural born citizen, the fact that unofficial party head Rush is out there spreading his hate and Hannity has a pole on how his followers want to start the "revolution," I'm seriously wondering where the Republican Party went. Wherever that may be, they either need to take the party back or start another one. I wound up on a site last night that I accessed through a CHURCH site called Paliban (Palin +Taliban). The party has turned into a fringe group and they're getting dangerous (see previous TN church killings.)

Tom in CA   February 28th, 2009 4:55 pm ET

...and this is the way we change the GOP? We get our femme fatale out there doing jokes...er whatever....

I've lost all respect for Ann. She just doesn't get why she's on that downward slope.

HURRY 2010 !!   February 28th, 2009 4:55 pm ET

The best that can be said about Obama, is that he will prove once and for all – Reagan was right.

Cynthia   February 28th, 2009 4:55 pm ET

This is all the Republicans could come up with??....desperation has definately set-in.

Kay   February 28th, 2009 4:55 pm ET

OK, I finally figured out the slogan for the "New Republicans" as they start their 4-year trek to the 2012 presidential campaign - "The Crazier, The Better".

Lennon for president   February 28th, 2009 4:54 pm ET

what a hideous and monstrous person she is...she's just as bad as that pig Rush Limbaugh

Creepy woman coulter   February 28th, 2009 4:54 pm ET

I bet she doesn't have a single black or hispanic friend. She is really scary, like what the consort of satan would be..

Fan of Common Sense   February 28th, 2009 4:54 pm ET

I tend to vote republican and I cringe at the thought to the party embracing this woman. She is just too over-the-top and out there.

RMGofCO   February 28th, 2009 4:54 pm ET

Wow. This crowd is scary. Ann Coulter is the meanest / nastiest woman alive. I feel bad for her...it can't be easy being her.

Debbie   February 28th, 2009 4:54 pm ET

Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh...reasons the Republican party continues to pull their own plug. It's kind of sad.

JimS.   February 28th, 2009 4:53 pm ET

Keep it up, conservatives. Keep paying attention to whack-jobs like Ann Coulter, and complete the job of making yourselves totally and 100% completely irrelevant.

I guess the wiping that McCain and Palin took obviously taught you nothing.

CindyLouWho   February 28th, 2009 4:52 pm ET

tardis   February 28th, 2009 4:52 pm ET

If Republicans continue to embrace the likes of Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh I can rest easy that they won't win another presidency in my lifetime.

M. Bryan   February 28th, 2009 4:51 pm ET

If Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh are the best Conservative
Republicans have to offer they are in more trouble than any of
the top-runners can get them out of.

Jack   February 28th, 2009 4:51 pm ET

Ann only got 15 minutes? I guess that's all she's used to.

This chick is an idiot. She fits right in.

Jolene   February 28th, 2009 4:49 pm ET

Ann has turned many Independant voters into Democrats. Gotta love her controversial remarks! Thanks for the votes Ann!!
Long live the Democratic Party!

mississippi librarian   February 28th, 2009 4:49 pm ET

ann is so self absorbed, she just talks to hear herself talk, nothing substantial to say.

Disgruntled   February 28th, 2009 4:48 pm ET

I cannot describe in this comment what I would LOVE to say about that horrible close-minded woman...she's a disgrace to the human race.

steve raymond   February 28th, 2009 4:48 pm ET

i am a rebublican (although i am against guns) but i find it kinda dumb that the rebubs keep rush and coulter within the same time zone

this lady is a twit and rush is just mean

GADGTFREAK   February 28th, 2009 4:48 pm ET

And we see why the Republicans lost, A nut case biggot like Ann Coulter.

the Film Professor   February 28th, 2009 4:48 pm ET

Look into this woman's eyes - what I see is someone dangerously deranged and scary. Sort of like Don Rickles in drag with blond hair. A cross between Phyllis Diller and Eva Braun. The kind of woman who could marry a Rush Limbaugh. (doesn't that image just kind of creep you out?)

Ohio Woman   February 28th, 2009 4:47 pm ET

Ann Coulter is UGLY inside and out. And, what a shame, she wears a crucifix around her neck like a sheriff's badge.

a f r   February 28th, 2009 4:47 pm ET

Ah, Ann Coulter is trash.

judy mcmillan   February 28th, 2009 4:47 pm ET

Hey, Repubs, it's rough not being in power, isn't it? With so many lightweight Repubs, I guess talk show hosts were all you could come up with!!!!!

Patrick   February 28th, 2009 4:47 pm ET

She's hurting the Party. Someone needs to shut her up.

Susan   February 28th, 2009 4:46 pm ET

she is a disgrace for humanity.
separatist............

if Republicans will rely on Coulter and Limbaugh, then they are doomed.

Cathy in Kennesaw   February 28th, 2009 4:46 pm ET

There is no limit to how much I abhor this woman. Anyone who encourages her vitriol by laughter is disgusting at best. BTW if the 53% majority Obama won by is "mediocre" what was the 51% majority Bush won by in 2004? Not to mention the popular vote loss of 2000! Do they think we have no memories?

Yikes   February 28th, 2009 4:46 pm ET

She looks more like the living dead every time I see her.

Wesley J.   February 28th, 2009 4:46 pm ET

What a mess the Republican Party has become.

thomas   February 28th, 2009 4:45 pm ET

Ann Coulter is so entertaining, like a porn movie for the feeble-minded.

sprkl12000   February 28th, 2009 4:45 pm ET

YAWN...Obama is still the PRESIDENT no matter how much they disrespect him..way to fire up the base..the same base that helped put OBAMA in office..one day they will learn that this is the same type of rhetoric that people do not want to hear....

jen   February 28th, 2009 4:45 pm ET

she is right, more and more people will be turning toward her and away from Obama, He is not helping people who pay their bills,

adamwallenta   February 28th, 2009 4:45 pm ET

Great. Another lame, angry, unimportant, hateful person.

Completely insignificant.

Tish   February 28th, 2009 4:45 pm ET

Typical Republican party girl.

Tyler   February 28th, 2009 4:44 pm ET

Ann can sure dish it out, hopefully, when the truth comes out about her she can take it!

J. Dean   February 28th, 2009 4:44 pm ET

THE CPAC, THE SO CALLED """""GOOD FOR NOTHING""""" GATHRING SHOULD KEEP IN MIND THAT THEY HAD NO MATCH FOR BARAK OBAMA IN 2008 AND THAT THEY WILL HAVE NO MATCH IN 2012. ANN COULTER, RUSH LIMBAUGH AND THE ENTIRE GANG OF OLD FASHIONED ""CONSERVATIVES"" CAN KISS GOOD BYE FOREVER. THEY COULD NOT DO IT IN 2008, THEY WILL NOT DO IT IN 2012 AND THEY WILL NEVER DO IT ANY TIME BECAUSE THEY CAUSE IT DEAD. WE ARE LIVEING IN THE 21ST CENTUREY AND NOT IN 18TH OR 19TH OR EVEN 20TH CENTURY.
I AM A LIFE TIME REPUBLICAN AND I APPROVE THE ABOVE MESSAGE.

Marty from Grand Rapids, Mi   February 28th, 2009 4:44 pm ET

Another republican noise maker. Listening to her is like listening to white noise.

MATT   February 28th, 2009 4:43 pm ET

Ann has done many special favors for the Republican Party.

David   February 28th, 2009 4:43 pm ET

It's interesting that she would refer to Obama's win as "mediocre," given that he won by a higher percentage of the popular vote than did Reagan (the first time around, anyway). And, incidentally, he's also been compared to FDR, not just to Republican Presidents. Finally, "alternative prom crowd"? Real nice and inclusive. Sounds like Ms. Coulter is the poster child for why Republican ID is shrinking.

Anonymous   February 28th, 2009 4:42 pm ET

Ann Coulter-geist and her crowd have become the "Gilligan's Island Crew" of politics. Rush Limbaugh is the captain. They are lost out there somewhere, and in need of a serious rescue.

Ann Coulter-geist is that type that was nerdy in school, and was never noticed by the boys. Now she's an intelligent woman, but she's still not feeling the love. So she went underground to the only party that would take her. But she's still bitter from all of the rejections, so she has targeted President Obama and Democrats as the reasons she was rejected in society. I'm glad she found her niche. She and Boss Hog are only a couple of the characters stranded on the island of misfit toys.

Jason   February 28th, 2009 4:42 pm ET

Even with her turtleneck Coulter can't cover up her adam's apple. And those man hands! She/he has to dress like a woman otherwise some guy would surely kick his boney behind.

Ray Fisher   February 28th, 2009 4:42 pm ET

This woman is purely hateful without redemption. She is capable of starting wars with her rhetoric!!!

proud army navy mom   February 28th, 2009 4:42 pm ET

Corrupt- to ruin with unsound manners, morals and actions.

Pathetic- inspiring pity

Asisine – inexcusable failure to execise intelligence or sound judgment

Creeps – annoying, unpleasant persons

This exactly describes the Republican Party.

Old girl needs to tighten up that face lift. She's looking kind of saggy.

Joyce   February 28th, 2009 4:41 pm ET

I want to know when the goverment is going to comeout with programs for people who do not qualify for any now. We are not rich and ae are not considered poor.My husband is a vetnam vet and he is deemed not employable he gets 100% disability, I lost my job and haven't been able to find another one. We make to much for these programs and not enough for others. We have one disabled child living with us and one in college living with uswe live on the edge. So after these fat cats have been getting so many tax cuts and we got nothing and will still get nothing, and goverment giving them selves big raises it's all become a joke.

Ross   February 28th, 2009 4:41 pm ET

Ann Coulter continues to be the Andrew Dice Clay of conservative political commentary [with apologies to Andrew Dice Clay].

Bob from Kentucky   February 28th, 2009 4:41 pm ET

Every time Ann Coulter opens her mouth another voter sees the light and starts voting Democratic. Please keep her in the headlines. (... and Rush Limbaugh, and Sara Palin, and not-Joe not-the-Plumber, and Sean Hannity, and Bill O'Reilly, and ...)

tyree   February 28th, 2009 4:41 pm ET

Who cares?... This is what Ms. Coulter is PAID to do. She has made a nice wad of cash being "controversial". She's very enterprising. At the end of the day, all she does is criticize and never offers any solutions. What makes her any different then these windbags who post there hate-based drivel on here?

Rob   February 28th, 2009 4:41 pm ET

Ann you are a sicko american

Zaley   February 28th, 2009 4:40 pm ET

She's the one that jumped out of the cake right?

GOP IN TROUBLE   February 28th, 2009 4:40 pm ET

ann coulter is a giant puss filled sore in America. She represents everything that immigrants despise about the neocons. If the republicans have any hope of gaining support among in the future, they should drop people like ann coulter and rush limbaugh.

KFR   February 28th, 2009 4:40 pm ET

I want change right now from people like you and your constant bashing. People do tire of that.

Nick Drance   February 28th, 2009 4:40 pm ET

This lady is so adept at insulting and disrespecting others it's unbelievable. It's one thing to have an opinion, it's another thing to be nasty about it.....and insult the President, especially at this time when he has his hands full.
Once again, it's like the hypocrites of the Harper Valley PTA. Where was all this venom when the national debt was exploding the financial system was existing in unregulated bliss, knowing a blind eye was facing them.
I don't know about you but when I make a mistake or those I stand for do, I apologize to those I have hurt and I certainly don't spend a lot of energy trying to tear people down and tear the country apart. What in god's name are these people thinking?

Angela   February 28th, 2009 4:39 pm ET

I love her sharp wit.

Donna   February 28th, 2009 4:39 pm ET

It is unfortunate that Ms. Coulter has managed to turn mean-spiritedness into a very good living. She is obviously an intelligent woman who could have made a positive contribution to society. Instead, she appeals to the basest and most hateful qualities in people.

Ron   February 28th, 2009 4:39 pm ET

Ann Coulter; can there be a better example of why the Republicans are on a downhill slide?

Tommy Mack   February 28th, 2009 4:38 pm ET

Limbaugh and Coulter... no wonder the Republican party has run out of ideas and solutions, they use these circus freaks as spokespeople.

How about something ORIGINAL instead of the usual (and now discredited) Republican playbook?

Sharon F.   February 28th, 2009 4:38 pm ET

Yeah and not even a whiff of an idea or a solution or a new way forward. A party of blowhards and nothing else. I am so glad that this country I love decided on President Obama to move it forward.
The president (whom Coulter disrespectfully calls Lincoln) will not get all that he wants accomplished but he at least has given us a vision, a plan, new ideas for this new age. Wake up republicans it's not 1980 anymore.

jeremy   February 28th, 2009 4:38 pm ET

love how this windbag jumps on the media for "guarding" government now that Obama was in. where was she for the previous 8 years of the administration spoon-feeding talking points to the networks? it disgusts me how far this party has fallen. with people like this being the flag-bearers, there isn't much choice but to be a democrat.

CJ   February 28th, 2009 4:38 pm ET

As long as she is representative of the GOP's ideals, they will remain out of touch with American society. I mean, really????

gPENN   February 28th, 2009 4:37 pm ET

AS LONG AS THE GOP WRAPS THEMSELVES AROUND PEOPLE LIKE COULTER. THEY WILL CONTINUE TO BE SECOND RATE AND SECOND PLACE.

Steve in Steamboat   February 28th, 2009 4:37 pm ET

Why do these idiots give someone like this a voice. It shows why they are out of sink with the country and also shows why they are frankly hated by most.

yvia   February 28th, 2009 4:35 pm ET

Bande de ridicules. He is your President, get over it already.

Brent   February 28th, 2009 4:34 pm ET

You can tell that this is a chick that has been in many places. Top and bottom.

lisabeth az   February 28th, 2009 4:34 pm ET

Seriously, these people are SO negative. They criticize everyone who isn't exactly like them. They are so small minded and I thank God they are not in charge of this country and never will be hopefully. They offer nothing positive, no good ideas or innovation, just their same old worn out ideas which obviously don't work.

Mike in NYC   February 28th, 2009 4:34 pm ET

It's been a long, long time since the MSM was the "people's watchdog."

She is right about the popular vote, however. Electoral landslide aside, seven percent is not strong, considering the state of the economy. A majority of both White men and women voted against BO, despite two generations of racial guilt-tripping.

There are legitimate criticisms you can throw at Coulter, but Obamorons really have made spectacles of themselves. On the intolerance scale, your typical BO worshipper ranks right up there with any species of fundamentalist.

concern   February 28th, 2009 4:33 pm ET

The GOP is making a come back!! They have 2 new stars in there party thats going to put the sense back into the people of the USA
get ready people. This is what the GOP has giving the USA. The world is laughing at us

Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh

Margo   February 28th, 2009 4:33 pm ET

Ann Coulter gave Elizabth Dole advise and look what happened to poor Liz. Keep up the good work Ann, it's backfiring on you and the Republican Party.

Winston Smith   February 28th, 2009 4:33 pm ET

Coulter is an absolute jerk.
I bet her "approval ratings" was pretty low (like most Republican/Conservatives).
I look forward to March 9th at Radio City Music Hall here in NYC....Bill Maher vs. Ann Coulter.
Coulter doesn't stand a chance.

Deborah   February 28th, 2009 4:32 pm ET

This woman is a caricuture of herself....even SNL can't do her better than she does herself, even though I'm sure they will try and I can't wait! A nasty woman who would be mildly amusing if she weren't so dangerous.

Obama/Biden 2012

Bethie   February 28th, 2009 4:31 pm ET

Ann has helped out many a Democrat get elected. We can only hope she continues her hateful and disrespectful comments. Really.

Sandra   February 28th, 2009 4:31 pm ET

Oh, the Republican darling (or is that Sarah). I would love to see her struggle to make ends meet, lose her job, lose her home. Maybe then, she would grow a conscience.

Mike M   February 28th, 2009 4:31 pm ET

yet another reason why the republican party is stuck in the mud, they are drowning themselves and they dont even realize it...priceless.

Duke   February 28th, 2009 4:30 pm ET

Did they have the pre-paid chanters screaming USA,USA, USA?

Cynthia   February 28th, 2009 4:28 pm ET

What a nut case! The only thing that she said that I can agree with is that John McCain is bad for the country he proved that with Sarah Palin and Joe the plumber we're still suffering with their presence.

TheThinker   February 28th, 2009 4:28 pm ET

Mediocre 53%?! Just what the bleep, that's actually the highest won percentage of the popular vote since the election of 1988 (roughly equal in fact). Clinton nor Bush Jr. ever got that high a win in the popular vote.
Geez, Ann is a joke. I once watched her "lecture" and there is no professionalism in her at all, all she does is criticize and shake her hair out of her face. I actually believe she would be more likable if she did conservative stand-up instead of this faux punditry.

Ellie   February 28th, 2009 4:26 pm ET

Isn't this the chick that was in my brothers backseat last night?

Peter E   February 28th, 2009 4:26 pm ET

Okay. We already knew the media is obsessed with presidents. What's her point? In what way should republicans change their ways to respond?
In her years commentating she hasn't had one single point, or constructive advice. She only complains.

G.R.   February 28th, 2009 4:26 pm ET

A pathetic, empty figure looking for the limelight the only way she can get it. If this is a Republican icon, then we are safe from further foolishness from that party. Another indication of nothing to offer and negativity as a strategy for governing. A party of the lost.

Jack in Ohio   February 28th, 2009 4:26 pm ET

Typical Republican cheerleader. Boo Hiss!

Sandra   February 28th, 2009 4:25 pm ET

Why do people like Ann resent the fact that Obama is popular? OK, I know why, but the GOP can surely do better than just paint Obama as some sort of religion. Do they not have a viable candidate of their own to promote? Why are they a party of bashers? All they can do is paint this negative picture. So sad...

Gayle G.   February 28th, 2009 4:25 pm ET

Ann Coulter is a loser! With a capital "L", capital "O", capital "S", & so on... She also thinks she is "all that" when she's UGLY!!!

PAUL   February 28th, 2009 4:25 pm ET

Coulter has been adorned by many.......as long as the paper bag was in place.

Peter E   February 28th, 2009 4:24 pm ET

She suffers from Attention Deficit Disorder. Nobody pays her any attention that only she thinks she deserves.

Ed, Santa Fe, NM   February 28th, 2009 4:24 pm ET

YAWN AND YAWN AGAIN.... RIP GOP

arithmetic is liberal   February 28th, 2009 4:24 pm ET

Ahhh, Ann Coulter. She is the best satirist of Republicans that the liberals have.

This woman is God's gift to satire.

Oh wait, you mean the drivel coming out of her mouth is meant to be taken seriously?

Even funnier!

PAUL   February 28th, 2009 4:24 pm ET

Just another reason I'll never vote Republican.

Reed   February 28th, 2009 4:21 pm ET

Why is it that every Republican woman has poured a bottle of piss yellow hair dye over her head?

If you don't like it go back to Europe!   February 28th, 2009 4:21 pm ET

I am looking at C-PAC now and it looks like they all share 1 brain and the MaHaRushie holds the key. Hey, if you don't like the country go back to Europe!

TracyM.   February 28th, 2009 4:21 pm ET

Ms. Coulter, you are the only woman I have ever really hated. I've always been able to at least partially justify another woman's actions or words, but not yours. However, that being said, you are absolutely entitled to your opinion, and you are absolutely welcome to spew your venomous vomit. It just makes people tired. And tired Republicans don't vote. I just wish, just once, I could see a Republican practice what s/he preaches. Just once.

Willy Brown   February 28th, 2009 4:21 pm ET

Good job Ann!

Peter E   February 28th, 2009 4:21 pm ET

She's right as far as Obama goes, but she fails to mention that the media's love affair to him isn't unique. This same 'liberal' media also likened Dubya to Reagan and Lincoln, and were the number one advocates for the Iraq war in '02 and '03, spreading the fear the administration fed them without question.
But the corporate media does not take responsibility for their actions, nor do they answer to the voters. They only answer to advertisement dollars.

chad in avery, ca.   February 28th, 2009 4:21 pm ET

IDIOTS!
why would you want her at your party?
limbaugh and coulter are losers

Julianna   February 28th, 2009 4:20 pm ET

Ms. Coulter truly reminds me of a pestering red ant...
We all surely don't need her and her disrepect for the goverment...

Trent   February 28th, 2009 4:19 pm ET

Ann Coulter is the one who will be jumping out of the cake afterwards and into the beds of her adoring fans.

David   February 28th, 2009 4:19 pm ET

This is one of the reason why they will never get back into the main stream of Politics. This woman isn't a person that want to bring people together she only believe in her book sells and for the life me I don't know why.

rob   February 28th, 2009 4:18 pm ET

Here comes the hate from the CNN crowd, enjoy.
