Ann Coulter wasn't invited to CPAC this year but she's still giving a speech 50 yards away. The speech is only open to 500 attendees but you can watch it live here -- courtesy of uStream. (VIDEO)

"I'm not comparing McCain to Hitler," she added. "Hitler had a coherent tax policy."

And Ann expects to be taken seriously after comments such as this?

Of course, after saying she would back Hillary she sort of lost any credibility she had left anyway.

I was told by the CPAC honchos on Thursday night that Ann wasn't invited to CPAC this year (as a major speaker) because of her "faggot" comment here at CPAC last year. She did a book signing today at the Clare Booth Luce booth and spoke only for a student group, not technically for CPAC.

I can't really blame the CPAC organizers... out of all of the good that came out of last year's CPAC, here's Ann - once again - just drawing attention to herself. The headlines that came out of last year's CPAC was Ann Coulter's "faggot" comment.

I am loving it. She is absolutely right about McInsane! We shouldn’t be trying to elect “a lukewarm conservative from a red state”.

“Notice a pattern here?”.....Yes, you can’t make a decision on your own. You are a mindless robot who “needs assistance”, no, make that “needs to be told” who to like, who to vote for and who to be against.

I never said that I had a problem making up my mind.

I was just pointing out what the conservative pundits were doing.

It appears that many other people do get caught up in the "herd mentality".

“I didn’t like Ann before because of her unnecessary incivility, and I like her even less now. I don’t what your beliefs are; you shouldn’t act like an ass.”

Ah..but there are certain times where being an ass is entirely appropriate...like the IDF soldiers caught mooning the Palestinians...

They did’t talk up the conservative candidates that much because they were going to try to sell us Willard Myth Romney.

In the end it failed because Willard is not a conservative.

I forgot to put my tinfoil hat on when I read that.

No tinfoil needed, just the power of observation.

“Ann is kicked to the curb.”

Well, she did announce that she’d be campaigning for Hilary. I wouldn’t invite her to my party.

“McCain voted for Ginsburg and Breyer.”

He also voted for Roberts and Alito.

That comment was Anti-Hillary’s tag line which I was speaking about. I agree with you.

OK, you're not invited to mine. I'll have a drink or two with her again.

I'm not the enemy here. If you want to talk about enemies, how about back in 1968-76 when I was in the military and overseas and a certain party drove a President out of office.

We will ALWAYS have troops overseas in danger. There is a really, really big problem here with the PUBs and conservatism; the condemnation by those like you of those of us who wish to do something about it is proof of that. Hiding behind the mantra "we are at war" is an excuse and coverup of that problem.

The process we are in now is a primary process, exactly where this problem should be solved - not treating it as if it were a general election. I resent the fact that there are those of you who have already decided for the rest of us who that nominee is going to be. The man, while having an admirable military career which I do honor, is still a Democrat at heart let alone him being a troublemaker for conservatism. He STILL believes in his heart what he acted out formally on immigration, campaign finance reform (and the list goes on and on and on). He may have changed his tune (ala THE SPEECH), but he hasn't changed his heart and mind.

Did you watch the video? In between the trademark sarcasm, she makes some excellent points.

Go toss away the Supreme Court and the sacrifices made in Iraq & the GWOT somewhere else.

Ann's speech brilliantly rebutted your post.

McCain will not nominate conservative supreme court justices. He will not vigorously pursue the war on terror--he wants to get the terrorists lawyers instead.

(for the convention)--Welcome To Rinopolos. Bring the _big_ shovels.

I heard McCain is supporting Hillary too.
He said she would be a good president.

So if McCain supports Hillary, Ann is just being a loyal republican.

Its gets confusing being a loyal supporter of a Maverick.

That is simply unjustifed garbage and I don’t believe one word of it.

Ann Coulter is over-selling hyperbole.

Hillary is firm in her decision to withdraw troops starting 60 days after assuming office. Ann says that Hillary won’t want to be the 1st woman president to “lose” a war.

The media won’t permit it to be framed that way.

That means that Coulter’s point is irrelevant.

But, in the long run it doesn’t matter. She will soon telegraphy whether this is hyperbole or if she is switching sides. She’ll be offered tremendous financial reward for switching sides.

At that time I hope she recalls the torn bodies of innocent babies.

This is not a game. It is about Life.

There is still slim hope that McCain could drop out before the convention.

Aside from that, we need to concentrate on getting the House and Senate more conservatives in order to block McCain and his operative party. We need filibuster ability. 41 votes?

Also, I like Anns Idea of impeachment. I would support a McCain impeachment from day one.

Ann’s position on Hillary over McCain, is non-sense. Bill Clinton freed the members of the FALN:
Fuerzas Armadas de Liberación Nacional (Puerto Rico)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Logo of the FALN.
Logo of the FALN.

The Fuerzas Armadas de Liberación Nacional (English: Armed Forces of National Liberation, FALN) was a Puerto Rican clandestine paramilitary organization that, through direct action and terrorism, advocated complete independence for Puerto Rico. At the time of its dissolution, the FALN was responsible for more than 120 bomb attacks on United States targets between 1974 and 1983. [1] The United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) classifies the FALN as a terrorist organization.[2]

The FALN was led by Filiberto Ojeda Ríos, [3] who was one of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s most wanted criminals. [4] The group served as the predecessor of the Boricua Popular Army. Several of the organization’s members were arrested and convicted for conspiracy to commit robbery and for firearms and explosives violations. On August 11, 1999 former United States President Bill Clinton offered clemency to sixteen of the convicted militants under the condition that they renounce any kind of violent manifestation. This decision drew criticism towards the Clinton administration from figures that include the United States Attorney, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the United States Congress.

Hillary Bill the two for one team, Marxist to the core.
surly you don’t believe they would be strong on immigration?

Putting them back in the White House over McCain is nothing but vindictive childish behavior on the part of spoiled brats, and that is Ann Coulter.
