ANN COULTER IN TWEET: ‘I HIGHLY APPROVE OF ROMNEY’S DECISION TO BE KIND & GENTLE TO THE RETARD’

Conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter is known for her edgy proclamations and oft-times controversial take on the issues. Last night, while commenting about the final presidential debate, Coulter took to Twitter, where she seemingly used a less-than-complimentary word to describe either debate moderator Bob Schieffer or President Barack Obama — “retard." The pundit tweeted, ”I highly approve of Romney’s decision to be kind and gentle to the retard.” While she didn’t explicitly name the individual being targeted, based on the factors at play, one can only assume that it was either Obama or Schieffer.

As of Tuesday morning, the social media message had been re-tweeted (shared) 2,506 times and it was selected as a favorite message by 1,018 people.

Yep, I have a son who says things like this. He gets away with it because he says what every one else is thinking.

Ann Coulter set Twitter on fire tonight with her remarks in the analysis period following the last presidential debate. @AnnCoulter posted: "I highly approve of Romney's decision to be kind and gentle to the retard." Coulter, a Conservative writer often featured as a political pundit on news programs, is known for her abrasive personality and ability to promote her ideals despite extreme opposition. She was once attacked during a speech at a college with a violent hit in the face with a pie. Tonight, her poor choice of a word may cost her some valuable alliances. While her use of...

I don’t know about anyone else, the more I listen to Obama the dumber I get. He lowers the intelligence in a room by just walking in.

For sure he is emotionally retarded. He’s just a little mama’s boy looking for approval and will say anything at any given moment to get it.

Romeny has actually been called a murderer, tax-evader, wears ‘magic’ underwear, a homo-hating bully, an idiot that doesn’t know what an aircraft carrier or submarine...virtually anything you can think of. And, Coulter’s remarks are embarassing. Why? Because retards would be pissed?

Because the left are not “retards”, they’re arrogant, vile and vicious. Her comment is offensive to children and adults with downs or mental retardation and doesn’t really effectively describe Obama .

Yea, she’s an attention whore and an embarrassment at times.

I cannot stand it when people use the word retarded in a derogatory manner. People do not choose to be born retarded.

Ann, you sound like a stupid dem.

Ah, yes. The old "they did it first!" defense.

The sissies at FR are out boo-hooing that Ann called Barack a retard. There is an accepted definition of the word and Ann used it absolutely correctly.

I didn’t know that FR was so freaking popular with our Log Cabin Republican friends.

Sarah Palin fan? How did you like when her son was called a retard by the vile sewer rats on the left?

It was a childish insult.
