Author blasts liberals, finds warm welcome
MLive/Saginaw News ^ | 10/28/04 | Scott Davis

Some conservative pundits take a shotgun approach in firing away at liberals.

Ann Coulter uses an Uzi.

Only hours before President George W. Bush was to speak this morning in Saginaw, the right-wing author took aim Wednesday night at liberal superstars and laid down some suppressing fire for Bush.

Judging by the thunderous applause in the nearly packed Temple Theatre in downtown Saginaw, each bullet hit its target.

Former President Bill Clinton, John Kerry and Ted Kennedy all came within her cross-hairs as she poked holes in Democrats' criticism of the war in Iraq.

And God help you if your name is Michael Moore.

"You'd think with all that money he is making, he could afford some soap and water," said Coulter, referring to the appearance of the man who directed "Fahrenheit 9/11."

Lecturing down the street from TheDow Event Center, 303 Johnson -- where Bush was to speak -- Coulter called liberals "idiotic," "constant carpers," members of a "religious cult," and, worst of all, French-like. Her books, "Slander" and "Treason," have blasted left-wingers for years.

"Bush is going to win. I can't believe this country has become France," Coulter said of the election. "I can't believe this country is willing to surrender on the war on terror."

That's exactly what will happen, Coulter said, if Kerry, a Democrat, is elected to the White House. She contends Kerry will scale back the war on terror, swatting terrorists like mosquitoes one by one only when there is absolute proof of guilt.

Although the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States found that Saddam Hussein did not help coordinate the 9/11 attack, Coulter argued that the evidence shows some ties between Saddam and al-Qaida.

"There's plenty of evidence, but maybe not enough to convince an O.J. (Simpson) jury," she said to laughter from the crowd.

Coulter said she is constantly astonished at how liberals criticize the war in Iraq, including their claim the United States went in alone. She noted the nation has many allies helping in Iraq.

She also complained that liberals have tried to tie the hands of Attorney General John Ashcroft by criticizing his efforts to detain illegal Muslim immigrants and terrorist suspects.

Coulter cringes at cries of "racial profiling" whenever officials talk about heightening searches of Muslims at airport terminals. Airport security should focus on the most likely suspects, she said. After all, Muslim extremists make up "100 percent" of terrorists involved in attacks with planes.

"When it's 100 percent, it ceases to be a profile," she said. "It's a description of the suspect." v

Added to Banglist.

You know, one of the ranges near me will shortly be getting a full-auto Uzi. If Anne would visit, we could get a picture that was much more on point. I know that the range would let her shoot for free, and even have a big BBQ in her honor.

"Ann Coulter uses an Uzi."

When I think of Ann Coulter, I imagine one of those pix of Joan of Arc standing with her chain mailed hands on the haft of a Claymore sword. The face isn't that of Joan of Arc but that of Ann Coulter. And Ann isn't burned at the stake either. She, instead, uses that Claymore to figuratively behead 10,000 liberals.

Ann, you see, is one of my favorite conservatives.

Well said!

If you are innocent and yet fit the description of the suspect then you are going to get looked at. It's that simple. Nothing personal, mind you.

And if you're innocent then you'll appreciate the use of caution and tolerate the closer inspection as the price one must pay for the crime committed by those who fit your description.

The frisking ad nauseum of old ladies, "to be PC fair" is a waste of everyone's time and our limited resources.

It makes absolutely NO SENSE!!!

As for post #2....WOW!!! and WOW!!! ....my pulse is still trying to calm down. Anne is God's gift to the conservatives

LOL!! Ok, how about the article??!

I've read her books and seen her brief spots on FoxNews and really like the way she sees through all the liberal BS and documents it all in her books. However, after watching her debate a liberal at a university, I have to admit I practically idolize her! She is GOOD!!

The debate can still be viewed on C-SPAN:

We went to see Ann last night and she was just great. I guess the GOP does not want to be associated with her which is too bad.
