Don’t Trust the ‘Shysters’ Who Say They Want to Defeat ‘Establishment Republicans’ (Ann Coulter)
TheBlaze.com ^ | Feb. 20, 2014 | Jason Howerton

Ann Coulter and TV host Sean Hannity clashed on Wednesday over the tactics being used by some Tea Party lawmakers in Washington. While Hannity commended lawmakers for taking a stand for their principles, Coulter suggested the movement is being hijacked by “con men” who are “tricking Americans to send them money.”

Coulter also criticized Tea Party lawmakers who are focusing on “defeating establishment Republicans” instead of Democrats because the party should be united in taking back the Senate in 2014 — regardless of which Republicans get elected to office. The ultimate goal should be to repeal Obamacare, she said.

“You have to elect Republicans!” Coulter proclaimed. “How about going after Democrats?”

There is no evidence that the GOP as currently constructed will fully repeal obamacare. They have steadfastly refused to engage Obama in any substantive way regarding kenyancare. Boehner has admitted the shut down was all theater and they had no interest in fighting that battle.

“Coulter is like Newt, all over the map”

You read my mind.

She makes a comment then contradicts herself in the next comment.

Ann is showing signs of being a cool-aid drinker, I think she got a slight touch of brain damage or she is just showing who she really is.

No. I refuse to back a politician who does not represent my beliefs. I don't care if there is an (R), (D), (I) or whatever after their name. If he/she is not for - and I mean really for not just paying lip service to - strong defense, fiscal responsibility, secure borders, no amnesty, limited government, personal rights, and pro 2nd Amendment... They can forget it, not only will they not get my vote, I will be actively working against them and for someone else who does represent what I believe in.

2012 was the last shot for the GOPe strategery of taking over the Senate and White Hut before putting up any resistance.

Conservatives sat out the Romney defeat. They will do it again, if the only choice is voting for DemoLites. Too bad for the millionaires, with eyes only on their stash.

They GOPe think we are idiots. It’s the same old just wait for the next battle and then we will take a stand jive. All they have to do is wait for obamacare to become entrenched so they can “fix” it.

By 2016 50-80 million people will have been pushed onto the exchanges by employers dropping their health care. Kenyancare isn’t going anywhere at that point.

If the GOP are not focused and engaged fighting democratcare now they never will be.

Hello Ann!

We can’t go after the Democrats that have a D after their name until we get rid of the Democrats that have a R after their name!

I would argue that Democrats like John McCain that have an R after their name are FAR FAR more dangerous to us than the ones with the D after their name!

Help me remember. Did Ann give the same advice for McConnell, Boehner and the other establishment types? What about the vast wasted money on Republican consultants in the last presidential election. I think Ann has her wires crossed.

Is it just me or is Ann sounding a lot like Karl Rove?

She has been seduced by the siren song of elitism. She sees herself as close to the leadership and believes she has their ear. That makes her an opinion shaper of the highest order. This malady afflicts most of the press who also believe they are the voice and conscience of the elite, and thus themselves elite.

Ann has moved to the dark side, I am sorry to say.

but she has one point.... I get emails from people claiming to be the one true anti GOPe organization and they all want my money....

I am admittedly not a trusting person....too many scumbags out there trying to feather their own nests...

I give to none. most sound like their business is making money by being tea-partyesque....

the only money I have ever given was toward the NRA-PVF. and I am leery of them

It's not just you. As far as I'm concerned, the bloom came off this transsexual rose years ago.

EXACTLY!

I am 100% sure that if the GOPe was in total charge they wouldn’t just repeal Obamacare, they would repeal and REPLACE IT! with something almost as bad!

Freedom is NEVER an option with liberals, both the D and the R kind.

Ann was very confusing.. She blasted the TEA party but then suggested that we should be trying to get rid of Lindsay Graham...

Does she not know he is a primary target?

She claims NOT TO read the news or listen to too much TV because she does not want to copy ideas and get accused of plagiarism. I think she needs to at least be a freeper.

I have some serious concerns with Rand Paul’s apparent willingness to back some variety of amnesty

Rand Paul appears to be a libertarian that doesn't believe in nationalism. In other words he feels that people from other countries should be free to cone here and fulfill their dreams of Liberty. What he fails to see is that the crop of 30 million or so illegal aliens that have arrived here since 1964 tend to come here more to take advantage of the welfare state and are here to exploit or generosity rather than contribute to our national wealth.

We can't have liberty when we are essentially importing an entire generation of slave masters. Legal immigrants come here to seek liberty. Illegal immigrants come here to bleed us dry. They are doing bang up job.

Sorry Ann, forgive me for thinking the shysters are the ones like bartender Boehner who say they will stand strong against democrats and then surrender before the battle has even started. Then they have the gall to ask for more money so they can win more election and surrender to more democrats.

How does that strategy ever beat the democrats?
