Ann Coulter Posts Racially-Charged Critique Of Latino Host's New MSNBC Show

her Tweets are very racist and disgusting


http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/ann-coulter-jose-diaz-balart-criticism

Jose Diaz-Balart's new program on MSNBC debuted Monday to a harsh review from a certain conservative firebrand.

Not that anyone should have expected Ann Coulter to appreciate the work of the Cuban-American journalist who's shown a passion for immigration reform.

Coulter fired off several derisive tweets directed at Diaz-Balart throughout the premiere of his eponymous program.

When he conducted an emotional interview with a Honduran teenager who arrived in the United States a few months ago, which Diaz-Balart translated in realtime, Coulter implied that the young girl was faking her tears.


* Jose Diaz-Balart is all for immigration reform , his brother Mario Diaz Balart (R-Fla.) -- opposed the measure.

10. Coulter Probably Thinks Latino-basing IsFamily Tradition

Ann Coulter probably thinks that Latino-bashing is carrying on her family tradition. I believe that her deceased papa made a career out of union-busting for Phelps-Dodge, and Coulter probably sees Latino-bashing to be an extension of her father's life work.

To my consternation, I've learned that Ann Coulter and I are distant cousins. I assure my fellow DU'ers that union-busting and Latino-bashing aren't any so-called traditions that came from MY side of the family.

code words and phrases but out and out plain racist speech. She might as well dress the part.

Why NBC continues to entertain this Klan leader-esque shithead is a great mystery for the ages.
