Ann Coulter has been mentioned a lot in these pages, so here they are all are...


"...what I love about Ann Coulter is that she's sort of the--she's sort of a version of myself in that she absolutely never pulls a punch. Even when she's saying something that I think is outrageous, it's what she really believes and she doesn't back off of it. And that is what I find so refreshing and, unfortunately, so unique. I can't name five other people who do that, who don't calculate before they speak." -- Bill Maher
"...Nixon's subversion [of the consititution] consisted of: One presidental lie; one invocation of presidental privilege, and zero criminal offences." - High Crimess and Misdemeanors: The Case Against Bill Clinton by Ann Coulter

"I'm getting a little tired of politicians trying to prove how "moderate" and "centrist" they are by taking more of my money and freedom. Where's this center -- somewhere between Lenin and Stalin? -- Ann Coulter
"This week's winner for best comedy line about the war is New York Democratic Sen. Charles Schumer. Referring to - well, it doesn't really matter what he was referring to..." -- Ann Coulter
"How about a new game show called 'Battle Begala?' Contestants would pick any obscure bad thing that happened anywhere in the world, and Paul would have 10 seconds to explain why it is President Bush's fault," -- Ann Coulter

"The spirit of the First Amendment has been effectively repealed for conservative speech by a censorious, accusatory mob." -- Ann Coulter
"Here the country had finally given liberals a war against fundamentalism and they didn't want to fight it. They would have, except it would put them on the same side as the United States." -- Ann Coulter
"Liberals hate America, they hate "flag- wavers," they hate abortion opponents, they hate all religions except Islam (post 9/11). Even Islamic terrorists don't hate America like liberals do. They don't have the energy. If they had that much energy, they'd have indoor plumbing by now." -- Ann Coulter
"[Senator]Torricelli [D-NJ] will leave public office with just the clothes on his back, a Rolex watch and other assorted jewelry, a TV set, a couple of racks of Italian suits, some Jets tickets, a grandfather clock and three paper sacks filled with small, unmarked bills." -- Ann Coulter
"Back when they supported segregation, Lott and Thurmond were Democrats." -- Ann Coulter
"Either we're removing a dictator who currently has plans to fund terrorism against American citizens or -- if Bush is completely wrong and Eleanor Clift is completely right -- we're just removing a dictator who plans to terrorize a lot of people in the region, but not Americans specifically. Even for someone like me, who doesn't want America to be the world's policeman, the risk of precipitous action against Saddam Hussein doesn't keep me up at night." -- Ann Coulter

"I lust for Ann Coulter; thin, cute, and slightly right of Atilla the Hun." -- Larry Bauer
"At least we finally got liberals on the record against looting. It seems the looting in Iraq compared unfavorably with the "rebellion" in Los Angeles after the Rodney King verdict. When "rebels" in Los Angeles began looting, liberals said it was a sign of frustration - they were poor and hungry. As someone noted at the time, apparently they were thirsty as well, since they hit a lot of liquor stores." -- Ann Coulter
"If any other religious cult knew so few basic facts about its own seminal beliefs as the liberal cult does about Joe McCarthy, Janet Reno would gas them." -- Ann Coulter
"Liberals dispute that Reagan won the Cold War on the basis of their capacity to put mocking quotation marks around the word, "won." That's pretty much the full argument: Restate a factual proposition with sneering quote marks." -- Ann Coulter
"In other words, under Attorney General John Ashcroft, the FBI, the INS and the Department of Justice are so out of control that they have actually begun to enforce U.S. immigration laws." -- Ann Coulter
"Hussein praised his sons for putting up a brave fight, noting that U.S. forces had surrounded their compound with advanced weaponry, ground troops and warplanes. In case that didn't work, U.S. forces were prepared to tell Janet Reno that a small Cuban boy was inside the house." -- Ann Coulter
"In California, the fabulously rich support the poor with government jobs, paid for by the middle class which is now living in Arizona. " -- Ann Coulter
"[Alan] Dershowitz has also offered to defend Osama bin Laden in court, saying it would be "an act of high patriotism." It's kind of too bad there isn't going to be a trial. Having Dershowitz defend him could be Osama's only shot at not being the least popular person in the courtroom." -- Ann Coulter
"At least when right-wingers rant there's a point." -- Ann Coulter
"[M]ore Americans work for federal, state or local government than work in any form of manufacturing. We crossed that Rubicon about 10 years ago." -- Ann Coulter
Do you think Ann Coulter is mean spirited, vicious, & shrill, but Maureen Dowd, Ted Rall, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, John Pilger, Margo Kingston, Tom Daschle, Noam Chomsky, Arianna Huffington, Molly Irvins, Eric Alterman & James Carville (among many others) are nice, sweet-natured, and reasonable?
The religion that has transformed Western civilization for two millennia is a blank slate for liberals. Their closest reference point is "conservative Christians," meaning people you're not supposed to hire. And these are the people who carp about George Bush's alleged lack of "intellectual curiosity." -- Ann Coulter
John Hawkins: What do you say to your critics who claim that you attack liberals just as viciously as you say Conservatives are attacked by liberals?
Ann Coulter: Our insults are true.
"No torture has yet been devised that could get a liberal to mention the poor, beleaguered Kurds dancing in the streets because Saddam is gone." -- Ann Coulter
"The implicit deal the government has always had with worthless, rich WASPs is they get trivial, make-work jobs with the Foreign Service so they can go around calling themselves "diplomats"; but the trade-off is, they're not supposed to make fools of themselves or commit treason. It's not that high a hurdle." -- Ann Coulter on Joe Wilson
Democrats are not angry about 9/11. Sad, maybe -- sad that it didn't happen on Clinton's watch so his legacy would be more than a semen stain. But they're not angry." -- Ann Coulter
"Moore's only concession to the Democrats' role-playing is to deny that he is a Democrat, hoping enough Americans were taught by public school teachers that no one will know how to look up Moore's voter registration card. ("Democrat.")" -- Ann Coulter
"Walking back from the convention site I chatted with a normal Bostonian for several blocks -- who must have identified me through our covert system of signals. He was mostly bemused by the Democrats' primetime speakers and told me he used to be an independent, but for the last 20 years found himself voting mostly Republican. Then he corrected himself and said he votes for the American." -- Ann Coulter
"Democrats haven't been this upset about an American engaging in free speech since Juanita Broaddrick opened her yap." -- Ann Coulter
"The media will spend weeks going through pay stubs for Bush's National Guard service in Alabama in the waning days of war, but if Kerry tells them exotic tales of covert missions into Cambodia directed by Richard Nixon, they don't even bother to fact-check who was president in December 1968." -- Ann Coulter
The lefties still have these bizarre ideas like "Republicans only like missionary style, in the dark, in order to make babies, because they really don't like sex." Where the reality is that Ann Coulter would kill Bill Clinton. He'd die happy, but she would be beating on his corpse yelling, "That's it?!!? That's just like you damn liberals! All talk, no action!"
Moonbat: Someone on the extreme edge of the political left who has long abandoned fact & logic in the pursuit of spewing their socialist crapaganda. (ie Al Franken, Michael Moore, and Janeane Garafalo, to name but a few.) Ann Coulter is the absolute antithesis of a moonbat.
"Liberals can't just come out and say they want to take more of our money, kill babies, and discriminate on the basis of race." -- Ann Coulter
"Perhaps like the many and various meanings of the word "we," liberals use the word "unsubstantiated" to mean "tested repeatedly and proved true."" -- Ann Coulter
"Why not go to war just for oil? We need oil. What do Hollywood celebrities imagine fuels their private jets? How do they think their cocaine is delivered to them?" -- Ann Coulter
"They spent the night in jail, where their progressive views on gay marriage served them well." -- Ann Coulter on the pie throwers.
"Bush won the largest popular vote in history with a 3.5 million margin. Indeed, simply by getting a majority of the country to vote for him - the left's most hated politician since Richard Nixon - Bush did something "rock star" Bill Clinton never did. Bush maintained or increased his vote in every state but Vermont." -- Ann Coulter

Ann Coulter: A clean, well-lit, heavily endowed university with a dozen unpaid college ghostwriters at my disposal. In other words, Al Franken's office.
"Ted Kennedy says that our policy in Iraq is adrift. Hmmm. Maybe like a car adrift in the water after its has gone over a bridge?" -- Ann Coulter
"To be sure, conservative radio talk show hosts have a built-in audience unavailable to liberals: People driving cars to some sort of job." -- Ann Coulter
"With Albright at the helm of the State Department, Osama bin Laden ran wild throughout the Middle East, the North Koreans began feverishly building nukes under her nose, and we staged a pre-emptive attack solely for purposes of regime change based on false information presented to the American people by Albright about a world leader who was not an imminent threat to the United States. Slobodan Milosevic wasn't even a latent, long-term, hypothetical threat. " -- Ann Coulter
"As president, Clinton sold burial plots in Arlington Cemetery and liberals shrugged it off. What really gets their goat is the autopen. Evidently, the important thing was that every one of those pardons Clinton sold for cash on his last day in office was signed by Bill Clinton personally." -- Ann Coulter
"If it were true that conservatives were racist, sexist, homophobic, fascist, stupid, inflexible, angry, and self-righteous, shouldn't their arguments be easy to deconstruct? Someone who is making a point out of anger, ideology, inflexibility, or resentment would presumably construct a flimsy argument. So why can't the argument itself be dismembered rather than the speaker's personal style or hidden motives? Why the evasions?" -- Ann Coulter
"Like the archers of Agincourt, John O'Neal and the 254 Swiftboat Veterans took down their own haughty Frenchman." -- Ann Coulter

"Hillary has already gotten a record $8 million advance from Simon & Schuster for the book -- reportedly the most anyone has ever received for rewriting history." -- Ann Coulter
"Much of the left's hate speech bears greater similarity to a psychological disorder than to standard political discourse. The hatred is blinding, producing logical contradictions that would be impossible to sustain were it not for the central element faith plays in the left's new religion. The basic tenet of their faith is this: Maybe they were wrong on facts and policies, but they are good and conservatives are evil. You almost want to give it to them. It's all they have left." -- Ann Coulter
"Teddy Kennedy's big new idea is to wheel out his 18th proposal to raise the minimum wage. He's been doing this since wages were paid in Spanish doubloons (which coincidentally are now mostly found underwater). Kennedy refuses to countenance any risky schemes like trying to grow the economy so people making minimum wage get raises because they've been promoted. Kennedy's going down and he's taking the party with him! (Recognize the pattern?)" -- Ann Coulter
"That and $8.50 will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks." -- Ann Coulter
"...while a sane world would not employ 5-foot-tall grandmothers as law enforcement officers, a sane world would also not give full body-cavity searches to 5-foot-tall grandmothers at airports." -- Ann Coulter

"The most crazed religious fanatic argues in more calm and reasoned tones than liberals responding to statistics on concealed-carry permits." -- Ann Coulter
"On TV or in person, you can trust that Coulter will speak from her heart. The officialdom of punditry, so full of phonies and dullards, would suffer without her humor and fire." -- John Cloud, Time magazine
"The last time I was mauled like that, I at least got a couple of cosmopolitans and a steak first." -- Ann Coulter on being frisked by a TSA employee.
Note to Republicans: Of your six minutes on television, use 30 seconds to point out the Democrats are abusing the filibuster and the other 5 1/2 minutes to ask liberals to explain why they think Bush's judicial nominees are "extreme." -- Ann Coulter
"Talking to liberals is much more fun now that we have Lexis-Nexis." -- Ann Coulter
How can rogue terrorists in Iraq detonate bombs? They're all too busy flying kites with their children! Hasn't [Katrina vanden Heuvel (Queen of the May at the fun-loving Nation magazine)] seen "Fahrenheit 9/11"? -- Ann Coulter
"She's an unashamed Conservative Republican and makes no bones about it. That makes her as annoying to the hard extremist left as those to right of center find Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton or Noam Chomsky. She freely admits that she is the type of writer who likes getting hate mail. To her it's proof that she is hitting her target. Those types exist on both sides of the political spectrum."
"NBC's "The West Wing" is an icon for bad stories; Gitmo is a place where we keep an eye on evil, dangerous people who want to kill us." -- Ann Coulter
"In liberals' defense, they've got a better shot at convincing Americans that Bush is responsible for a hurricane than convincing them that John Kerry was fit to be commander in chief. Compared to Kerry, Katrina is a blowhard they can work with." -- Ann Coulter
"Invalidating laws has absolutely nothing to do with "judicial activism." It depends on whether the law is unconstitutional or not. That's really the key point." -- Ann Coulter
"Here's a foolproof method for keeping America safe. Always do the exact 180-degree opposite of whatever [Jimmy] Carter says, as quickly as possible." -- Ann Coulter
"As president, Nixon imposed wage and price controls, created the Environmental Protection Agency, initiated race-based hiring schemes, signed SALT I with the Soviets and instituted rapprochement with the Red Chinese. All of this resulted in liberals ... despising him even more!" -- Ann Coulter
"The Republican Party emerged from the Whigs when the Whigs waffled on slavery. (They were "pro-choice" on slavery.) The Republican Party was founded expressly as the anti-slavery party, which to a great extent remains their position today.
Having won that one, today's Republican Party stands for life, limited government and national defense." -- Ann Coulter
"Republicans are afraid to act in accordance with the election results. Republicans seem to be in denial about election results. It's one thing for Democrats to be in denial about the Republican electoral juggernaut, but it's strange that Republicans are in denial about it too." -- Ann Coulter
"If you want to find the cool, anti-establishment rebels who don't answer to "The Man" on college campuses today, you have to go to a meeting of the College Republicans. They are rebelling against at least 99 percent of their professors."-- Ann Coulter
"The left has Ward Churchill, Michael Moore, Cindy Sheehan , Fuck I mean Chuck Schumer, Al Franken(stein) and a grand variety of asshats and asscrumpets. And it seems as if they will never just shut the hell up. The right has Anne Coulter..." -- Pole Dancing in the Dark
John Hawkins: Earlier this year, Sean Penn admitted that he keeps an Ann Coulter doll around that he tortures for fun. Any comment on that beyond the fact that Penn is obviously mentally disturbed?
Ann Coulter: I'd always suspected that Sean Penn was the type of "man" who plays with dolls, but I assumed that he liked the life-sized ones you have to inflate first.
"My name is Ann Coulter, but to listen to liberal pundits tell, it I am Cruella DeVil, Bloody Mary and Lizzie Borden all rolled into one -- with none of the warm, welcoming, nuanced non-judgmentalism of a Hillary Clinton!
"Between 1995 and 2005, the prison population grew by 30 percent, meaning an additional half million criminals were behind bars, rather than lurking in dark alleys with switchblades. You can well imagine liberals' surprise when the crime rate went down as more criminals were put in prison. The New York Times was reduced to running querulous articles with headlines like "Number in Prison Grows Despite Crime Reduction" and "As Crime Rate Drops, the Prison Rate Rises and the Debate Rages." -- Ann Coulter, Godless
"Fox News isn't even particularly conservative, though it is recognizably American. I believe the one verified atrocity committed by Fox News was the wearing of American flag lapel pins after 9/11. Assuming - against all evidence - that Fox News is every bit as conservative as CBS is liberal, it is still just a small beachhead in a universe of liberal-speak. But the mere existence of one solitary network that doesn't toe the party line has driven the Left insane." -- Ann Coulter, Godless
"Democrats couldn't care less if people in Indiana hate them. But if Europeans curl their lips, liberals can't look at themselves in the mirror." -- Ann Coulter
"The exact same people who are now demanding prison for Libby for not remembering who told him about Plame are the ones who told us it was perfectly plausible for Bill Clinton to forget that Monica Lewinsky repeatedly performed oral sex on him in the Oval Office. Even if chubby Jewish brunettes aren't your type, be honest: Which of the two events would stand out more in your memory?" -- Ann Coulter
"Because of the industrialization of agriculture -- using massive amounts of fossil fuel -- only 2 percent of Americans work in farming. And yet they produce enough food to feed all 300 million Americans, with plenty left over for export. When are liberals going to break the news to their friends in Darfur that they all have to starve to death to save the planet?" -- Ann Coulter
"Ann Coulter had it right: the left never debates--they only insult. (It's quicker, pithier and doesn't tax the mind.)" -- T. Holzel
"Democrats all claim they'll get rough with the terrorists, but they can't even face Brit Hume." -- Ann Coulter
"They win in the dark; we win in the light." -- Ann Coulter
"When Minutemen leader Jim Gilchrist and his black colleague Marvin Stewart were invited by the College Republicans to speak at Columbia last year, the tolerant, free-speech-loving Columbia students violently attacked them, shutting down the speech." -- Ann Coulter
"Democrats should run Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for president. He's more coherent than Dennis Kucinich, he dresses like their base, he's more macho than John Edwards, and he's willing to show up at a forum where he might get one hostile question -- unlike the current Democratic candidates for president who won't debate on Fox News Channel. He's not married to an impeached president, and the name "Mahmoud Ahmadinejad" is surely no more frightening than "B. Hussein Obama." -- Ann Coulter
"...liberals said the war was a failure because we hadn't captured Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Then we killed al-Zarqawi and a half-dozen of his aides in an air raid. Then they said the war was a failure because ... you get the picture." -- Ann Coulter
With all the fuss you’d think Ann Coulter killed somebody. No wait, that was Ted Kennedy.

"In the spirit of reaching across the aisle, we owe it to the Democrats to show their president the exact same kind of respect and loyalty that they have shown our recent Republican president." -- Ann Coulter
"The fact that Obama won his Senate seat by rifling through the divorce records of his opponents is surely at least as important as the fact that Palin’s teenage daughter got pregnant out of wedlock." -- Ann Coulter
"Liberals adore Huckabee because he fits their image of what an evangelical should be: stupid and easily led." -- Ann Coulter
"On the bright side, you know you've arrived when liberals start calling you a fag. Curiously, these proponents of tolerance always choose "gay" as their most searing epithet. Joe McCarthy, J. Edgar Hoover, Matt Drudge, Starr's prosecutors, Linda Tripp's lawyer, Christopher Hitchens, Mel Gibson -- all these have been denounced as homosexuals at some point by liberals...Arguing with liberals instantly becomes a game of gay-baiting musical chairs. We just don't think they should get married. Liberals actually hate homosexuals." -– Ann Coulter
"This is how six-year-olds argue: They call everything "stupid." The left's primary argument is the angry reaction of a helpless child deprived of the ability to mount logical counterarguments. Someday we will turn to the New York Times editorial page and find the Newspaper of Record denouncing President Bush for being a 'penis-head.'" -- Ann Coulter
"I would rank George Washington as America's greatest president, but he only had to defeat what was then the world's greatest military power with a ragtag group of irregulars and some squirrel guns, whereas Ronald Reagan had to defeat liberals." -- Ann Coulter
"Apparently, it's OK for Obama to fire the head of General Motors, but Bush can’t fire his own U.S. attorneys." -- Ann Coulter
"[Liberals] think they can pass a law eliminating guns and nuclear weapons, but teenagers having sex is completely beyond our control." -- Ann Coulter
