[JI7]

[leftofcool]

3. It's coming

As soon as the GOP gets through we will be back to only whites voting and only those who are land/home owners

[Squinch]

4. And Princess Squinch says that Ann Coulter shouldn't be allowed to speak. So there's that.

[tanyev]

5. Maybe someone who's committed vote fraud multiple times should STFU.

6. Maintaining her irrelevance

[Major Nikon]

10. More like maintaining her relevance with stupid people

[eleny]

12. She doesn't have to anything to keep their attention!

[shenmue]

7. N.B.: Ann Coulter is a dumb motherfucker

[Coventina]

18. I love you for your use of N.B.

[shenmue]

22. Thx hug

[MontanaMama]

31. Nota Bene?

Very clever!

[shenmue]

32. Thx hug

[ProudLib72]

8. This is more anti-college crap from the right

It's veiled by the bs voter fraud claim, but it basically states that college kids are not part of "real" America and shouldn't have a say in politics. The dumbing down of 'Murica is high on their agenda.

[Initech]

19. They are really going after colleges hard aren't they?

Fucking A, can't we have anything slightly liberal or must everything follow their shitty agenda 24/7?

[Warren DeMontague]

9. Translation: Meth ghoul says something outrageous in another desperate attempt to maintain

Relevance and financial viability

[MontanaMama]

29. Meth Ghoul!!

Made my day!

[jodymarie aimee]

11. I called her a pig once

and got banned.

[shenmue]

13. Awww

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

26. Probably for insulting pigs.

[Liberal Veteran]

14. Not really surprising. If the republicans had their way...

...anyone who isn't white, registered republican, watches Fox News religiously, and ostensibly Christian shouldn't be allowed to vote.

[Initech]

15. Fuck you Ann.

We have this thing called "The Bill Of Rights" and it does specify that you can vote at 18.

[TexasTowelie]

23. If I may gently correct you, it was the 26th amendment that lowered the voting age to 18.

Prior to that the voting age was 21.

[Initech]

24. Is it still called The Bill Of Rights though? Or does it end after 10?

[tblue37]

27. The Bill of Rights the first 10 Amendments only. nt

[struggle4progress]

16. Coulter ... Coulter ... The name sounds familiar ... Wait ... It'll come to me ...

Wasn't she Oswald Moseley's wife?

[Initech]

20. No I think she was a villain in a horror movie. Coultergeist?

[Squinch]

33. LOL! It's times like this I miss Pinboy!

[Abu Pepe]

17. Must stay crazy and mean or be forgotten nt

[rogue emissary]

21. She is a Republican, and they've been covertly against college student voting since I attended.

[Initech]

25. Republicans have been cranking the hate against liberals way past 11 this year.

I don't think they will be satisfied until we're all dead.

[Not Ruth]

28. Everyone should be allowed to vote

[HockeyMom]

30. Maybe Retired "Unproductive" Seniors should not vote also?

My younger daughter turned 18 as a Senior in HS. College? Oh, horror, NO.

[MichMan]

34. They can have a big effect on local issues

Coulter is a dingbat no doubt. Obviously they have a right to vote and are residents of the area for much of the year.

At the same time, depending on the size of the neighboring community, college students by sheer numbers can overwhelm the votes of the long time residents on local issues. These can have consequences long after they move on.

[treestar]

35. She may not recall that it was lowered to 18

from 21 since it was possible to be drafted. So raise the draft age to 30, Annthrax. It is unfair for people to risk their lives in the military when they have no say by voting.

[Stuart G]

36. She has to say something totally rediculous...in order to make money..

More ridiculous, the better. She needs to be able to charge money for speaking fees. If the media did not report her stupid remarks, and no one wanted her, or wanted her less, then her fees would go down.

.....If she makes statements that get her in the news, and there is a demand to listen and then argue with her, wherever she speaks, then the demand for her might go up, or at least stay at a higher rate than if no one ever reported in the media about what she said..

"college students shouldn't be allowed to vote.." is an enticement to get her to speak on college campuses...She will first give a speech, and then answer questions and argue with the audience....'

The more the demand for her speeches, the more she can charge for speeches and that is the only
reason that she said what she said.to increase her demand for her speeches, so she can charge more to speak.

.What she says in not important, what the price of her speech is,.That is all that is important to her.

[peggysue2]

37. Coulter is a provocateur

Previously she said that the poor shouldn't be able to vote, people who have no skin in the game. Actually, it's the poor that people like Coulter wipe their feet on. Before that, she said the ignorant shouldn't be able to vote. Even though she's clearly a pretend know-nothing who likes to sell books to know-nothings. Now, it's college students

That being said, there are pundits and pols who want to go back to voting restrictions--only the landed gentry get a vote. Of course, they were the days only men got the vote. Come to think of it, Coulter also included women in her voting denial because women are too emotional.

The woman provokes for the sake of provoking because it sells books. That's all she's got--her mouth and her hateful rhetoric.

[Thor_MN]

38. Does Dipshit understand that not everyone goes to college?

Why does she single out college students?

[applegrove]

39. But the college aged should be able to fight in wars?

[JonLP24]

40. But they can go to war?

I'm 30 and I'm just as liberal as I was when I was 16.

[shenmue]

41. I'm 44 and more liberal than ever

[Matthew28]

46. I am 31

and becoming more liberal by the day!

[shenmue]

47. Yay

[phylny]

42. You know...I live near Liberty University which, thankfully, is not in my district, but it's in my

state. I really don't want 30,000 evolution-denying, brainwashed students who will be moving back home long after they voted deciding on my community's future, especially if their address of record is in another state. If they live in Lynchburg full time, fine.

I say this as a Christian person myself, just not fundamentalist, evangelical.

[ProfessorGAC]

43. Because She Was Too Busy Partying...

...when she bluffed her way through college and likely didn't vote, she expects everyone to be equally frivolous

[shenmue]

44. Coke will do that to you

[blueinredohio]

45. She shouldn't be allowed to breathe the same air I do

[Blue Owl]

48. Roaches shouldn't be allowed to leave their hotels

n/t

[WinkyDink]

49. Who cares what this person says?
