Ann Coulter Interview on Real Time with Bill Maher

[Spitfire of ATJ]

Catch phrase: Does she really mean it?

Including "Romney got 20% of the young black male vote" because they knew he would be better for them on jobs because everyone knows the way you create jobs is to crack down on Mexicans.

Seriously????

I don't buy it. She CAN'T be this out of it.

1. "The Grand Dame of Blonde Conservative Women,"

now that's a title!

[Scuba]

3. And she accepted that "compliment". Too dumb to breathe.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

8. Especially since he was telling her flat out that she was past her prime....

Hell,...the entire "Conservative" thing is on the way out with the public.

Mind you, they'll retain a few followers but they haven't done anything to attract the young people and it is definitely UNCOOL to be a "Dittohead" these days.

2. I am convinced that these media personalities on both sides are faking it

They are like Mexican "lucha libre" wrestlers that slam each other on the mat and holler and curse at each other, throw fake punches, have fans that root for them. Develop personas (some good some evil). and at the end of the day they set it aside and go have some drinks and laughs at our expense.

That's why Bill Maher, Jon Stewart, and Steven Colbert invite the likes of Ann Coulter and Bill O'Rilley to their shows and vice-versa. They need each other to maintain dramatic tension.

4. She's like a professional wrestler. It's an act - performance art.

[The Wizard]

12. She stole Andy Kaufman's act (NT)

[Warpy]

5. It's amazing how many bogus numbers she can pull

out of that skinny a butt, isn't it?

Her trade is lying to morons for money.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

7. All it takes to be a hit with Conservatives is to twist things and throw them out there....

The GOAL is to cause Liberals to get angry.

[iamthebandfanman]

10. naah, not really...

kinda why she does it, id imagine..


i mean, she does have a million fans after all..


see.. its pretty easy to throw them around

[Spitfire of ATJ]

11. Honey Boo Boo has more fans.

[johnnyrocket]

6. Queen of deception and diversion. She has no deep political thoughts. All spin, all shrill.

[BillyRibs]

9. Ann's always worth

A look. Like a car wreck you Just can't help looking at!

[mdbl]

14. She wouldn't know if she means it

She is part of the same lame-brained section of the media market that attracts all the weird fringe groups support from a few rich conservatives who might profit even indirectly from her vitriol. They created her and her market. Is she out of control now? They don't care as long as she's bashing liberals. Bill Maher is just continuing to market her crap by having her on his show.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

19. "They created her and her market."

Bingo.

One of the things the Right Wing will do is play the "bulk sales" game to get on the New York Times Best Seller List. They buy their own publications to SIMULATE popular support. They will then pass out the books to give away or offer for a discount if you make a donation to places in their little web like World Net Daily or Newsmax.

There are some groups that take those kinds of books and stick them in the pews in churches. You know,...for America.

Outside of their bubble Ann's books end up in the markdown bin and the "buck a bag" library sales where STILL nobody wants them.

15. She's technically right about the 20% part- but not for the reason she thinks (amnesty)

http://www.people-press.org/2012/11/26/young-voters-supported-obama-less-but-may-have-mattered-more/

Pew Research looked at the exit polls for both races.

However, Obama lost support among both white men and women. Overall, 41% of white men supported Obama while 54% supported Romney. In 2008, Obama won the vote among white men, 52% to 46%. While white women voted for Obama over McCain by a 56% to 42% margin four years ago, they were divided this year (48% voted for Obama, 49% for Romney).

Surprisingly, Obama’s vote also declined among young black men, by 14 points, while holding steady among young black women

It didn't say anything about amnesty as the reasoning for the 20% result for Romney. As a member of that demographic, I still am confused, but my guess it has more to do with religion than amnesty. Among Black Women, he increased 2 points.

More interesting (ie. PRO-Democratic) information is at the link, which ODDLY ENOUGH Ann Coulter did not mention. Hmmm, wonder why?

[Spitfire of ATJ]

20. Republicans are quick to claim a specific policy is supported when it's not....

People who vote because they are racist don't necessarily support the idea of deregulation of food safety but a Republican will claim that's what they ran on and that's what "The American People ™" want.

16. Minutemen Are Not Popular, Moral

At 4:05 she pretty much took it to a whole new awkward level. Her statements about Minutemen are ignorant of the fact that Minutemen are [down-right nasty]. Pretty much KKK-equivalent nasty. This will not win over a new generation of Hispanics into your book club.

Thanks for the vid!

[marble falls]

17. What a nasty piece of work, is there anyone as hateful as Ann Couler? I can take her in .....

soundbites but eight minutes makes me want to throw my laptop across the room. When she attacked the audience member at 2:00 I had enough.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

21. This is why these people get pies in the face.

[judesedit]

18. Typical rethug. Votes twice in the same election two different states and never prosecuted. Loser.

Bill, you were definitely a little too tame.

[randr]

22. There must be an economic tie in between HBO

and her publisher. Otherwise I do not think Bill would give her the time of day.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

23. To air her is to mock her.
