Ann Coulter tells Nikki Haley to 'go back to your own country' in racist rant

NBC News
By Sakshi Venkatraman

Conservative pundit Ann Coulter is under fire for a racist tirade against new Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley.

In an appearance on the "The Mark Simone Show" podcast this week, Coulter made several xenophobic comments about Haley, the former governor of South Carolina who was born in the U.S. to Indian immigrant parents. "Why don't you go back to your own country?" Coulter said.

Coulter, known for her racist and anti-immigrant stances, attacked India, as well.

"Her candidacy did remind me that I need to immigrate to India so I can demand they start taking down parts of their history," she said. "What's with the worshipping of the cows? They're all starving over there. Did you know they have a rat temple, where they worship rats?"

If I was going to describe Ann Coulter in two words, those are not the words I’d pick.

I'm thinking of to describe her, and all four of them are contained in both Ann Coulter and Conservative Pundit. Coinkydink? I think not.

She's been quiet.

I wonder if she's ever told her Indian dude lover from Dartmouth College to go home? Whatshisname, another Republican intellectual that is clueless about reality.

Ann served her purpose being part of their new young pundit class (mostly due to bulk buys if her books).

Ann Coulter has rabies. I do not like Haley, but for very different reasons. I do like India ..... my older daughter did a semester there, and has taught me more about it than I previously knew (my previous interest was in its history, my daughter's is in teaching people to tend a garden). And I kind of like seeing republicans attack one another, though in this instance, throwing "race" into it is dangerous as it adds to the hate. And I suspect that all twenty people who take Coulter seriously are hateful.

NOT ONCE did anyone ever tell her to "go back where she came from".....gee, I wonder why......

still, it makes it all the more sickening that Nikki supports such a racist party

who knows how to say the right things to the right idiots to bring in the money. I thought she was just 3-day-old fish these days, though.

or anyone else on the right wing the way she is always going after others.

And Haley attacks liberals for calling out racism.

18. You're thinking of that old story about her chauffeur

As the story goes, she is in her house in Connecticut, and is late for an appearance on Fox Noise. She yells for her chauffeur to get the limo ready. The highway into New York City is complete blocked, due to a few accidents, and she realizes that she won't make her appointment. So, she tells her chauffeur to google some alternative route using some rural roads. He does so, but they are curvy in places and he is having trouble keeping his car on the road while speeding.

While rounding one particularly sharp curve, he suddenly sees an aged bovine standing in the middle of the road, and he has no time to swerve. Coulter's limo was strong enough to withstand the crash, but the cow was not. There was a farmhouse across the street, to which the cow obviously belonged, so Coulter told her chauffeur to run in, explain what happened, whose car it was, and just give them enough money to be happy, and get back to driving ASAP. So, the guy went into the house, and didn't come out for an hour. When he did, his hair was a mess, and his clothes were disheveled as well. Her appointment was a lost cause, and she was boiling with rage. "WTF happened in there?" The chauffeur explained that he did as she instructed, and they fed him a fabulous meal, whereupon the daughter of the old farmers took him upstairs for a nice little dessert.

About to explode, Coulter demanded he tell her exactly what he had told them. He said that he had only told them what she had told him to say: "I am Ann Coulter's driver, and I just killed the old cow."

Does Nikki stand a chance with the bigot base.
The gop, in my state, supporting a non white woman?

Don't like Coulter but i think she has her finger on the gop pulse.

Oh wait, the rule, for her, is that all four grandparents must be born in the US to be a native born citizen.

And I would bet Haley's parents came to the US legally, too.

I have nothing against India, but Annthrax immigrating there would be a good thing for us.
