"It's totally fake outrage from frauds who want to continue the dump of third-worlders on the country, including Muslim Jihadists, and voted for the guy who just gave a nuke to Iran," says the conservative pundit.
Conservative pundit Ann Coulter, under the gun for tweeting about Jews and Israel during Wednesday night's GOP debate, says her tweets were "ripped out of context, chopped up and sent out in tweets with inflammatory headings."
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she also says that the ones who are using her tweets to bash her are "mostly Israel-hating liberals and pro-mass-immigration Republicans. Both of whom don't want anyone to notice how immigration is changing the country, putting Americans — and Israel — at risk."
The columnist and TV personality set off the firestorm with tweets criticizing Republicans for talking too much about Israel in Wednesday's CNN debate featuring Donald Trump, Carly Fiorina, Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee, Marco Rubio and more.

Coulter told THR that the charge that she is anti-Semitic is "laughable."
"Anyone with a pulse knows I am pro-Israel and against the enemies of the Jewish people. I have a whole chapter in my current book praising Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It's the people attacking me who couldn't care less about Israel or Jews," she said.
"The hypocrites who are mad at me are the ones who support anti-Israel college professors, who refuse to condemn Islamic barbarism, who supported the overthrow of Mubarak for the Muslim Brotherhood, who spread the deadly libel that Jews in America are only successful because of 'white privilege.' "

I didn’t bash her. I always take the side of wait and see before making a knee-jerk reaction. It would be wise for all Freepers to do the same.
That was my first impression in reading about this. If she were vitriolic re Israel we would have heard it long before.
...and you should read your tagline once in a while.
Now that's funny right there, I don't care who you are.
I just reported you. I have no need to know about your body parts. Very rude of you.
Some people need to avoid Twitter and this is one of them. If nuance and context is what you need, you don’t get it there.
LOL i thought so too (even if I agreed)
Of course you did.
Baby steps moron! If Trump’s immigration policy isn’t passed, we won’t have a country.
Good call, libbylu! I almost did the same.
Sounds like Ann is saying we out here are simply too stupid to appreciate the wisdom and subtle wit of her profane tweet.
She has serious mental issues or something.
if she is still a voice for the good,
I am very very very happy
our news media is worse than worthless
it is positively harmful
I’m very disappointed in Ann. While I won’t bash her, I won’t be buying any more of her books, either.
I make a point of spending at least 4 hours in deep contemplation before making my knee-jerk reactions. But that’s just me.
What an idiot. No wonder she loves romney & romneycare
