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)
That's nohing new. The RNC has always held the view that the conservative right is to be let out of their cage just long enough to cast votes the way they were given instructions how to by the RNC elites and then kicked in the teeth and told to go away until needed next election. NO more!! I for one will not take any more of their crap
Terrific video, especially the question and answer period.
Thanks for the link!
I cought the last 10-15 min. will it be replayed? Wish this had been posted earlier.
Coulter Speaks to CPAC
Best-selling author and columnist Ann Coulter elaborated to Conservative Political Action Conference participants why she said she would campaign for Democrat Hillary Clinton for president over Republican John McCain.
She wont want to be the first girl President who loses a war and she [Hillary] would actually enjoy torture in Guantanamo, Coulter said in a Friday afternoon speech at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington D.C.
The event was held at the CPAC convention hall, but not sponsored by CPAC— largely because of controversial remarks she made at the convention last year about former North Carolina Senator John Edwards.
Instead, it was organized by Citizens United, Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute, Human Events, Young Americas Foundation and Townhall. It was not held in the main ballroom where President Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney spoke earlier in the conference, but in a room nearby.
More than 500 people attended the event. Many of audience members wore large stickers that said I want Ann Coulter implying they wished she was permitted to speak on the main ballroom floor.
We love you, Ann! several audience members shouted as she approached the podium.
As this speech indicates Ann Coulter is the most popular speaker CPAC had in modern time, said YAF spokesman Jason Mattera.
Coulter tried to bring cheer to conservatives who dread a second Clinton Administration
If Hillary gets elected at least well get the silverware back! she quipped.
In her remarks, Coulter said she was certain McCain would not nominate any judges for the Supreme Court without checking with his good friend Teddy Kennedy.
I dont think my girl Hillary is going to listen to Teddy Kennedy anymore! Coulter said, taking a shot at Kennedys decision to endorse Obama over Clinton.
Coulter compared McCain to former Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, who also service in the military. Coulter noted Democrats believed Kerry would win because, Oh, hes a war hero.
Thatll work, Coulter said sarcastically. I predict our strategy will work as well as it did for the Democrats.
Coulter noted Barack Obamas popularity briefly. She said his biggest selling point was he is one of the least dangerous people I know named Hussein.
His first big accomplishment was being born half-black, Coulter said. He wouldnt be running for President if he werent half-black.
She said she would be able to help Clintons campaign because I actually know some black people.
Michelle Malkin, on the other hand....
Only caught the last half hour, but she was pretty good. Placated the Ron Paul people nicely. Slapped Huckabee. Even said she might possibly be convinced to change her mind on McCain, considering her hatred for the Clintons.
Lest anyone forgot, WE ARE AT WAR!!!!! NOW IS NOT THE TIME IN HISTORY TO TEACH THE PARTY A LESSON!!
How long have we been at war? how long will we be at war?
Long before 9/11 and probably for the next 100 years or so. I don’t think I can wait 100 years to try and reform or start a new party. I will not vote for McCain.
I didn’t get it all, but thanks so much for posting it. I did love it, don’t get to see and hear her speaking much. She’s very good at what she does and funny. First good laughs I’ve had for awhile.
Hilary actually said something like “the more the merrier” when asked about Ann’s recent comments. There was no rebuke.
It is in McCain's DAN to take revenge upon the Conservative base. If elected, he would appoint extremely liberal judges. He will close GITMO and run any war from the W.H. ala LBJ.
The only joy I have is that there is a low probability McCain will be elected, especially if Hillary is the Rat nominee.
"How many $$$ will this wild statement bring in?" she laughs.
Bill Mahler is one of her good friends, according to her.
Can someone tell us what she’s saying, instead of telling us what they think about what she hadn’t yet said?
bump to your comment.
opps, DAN=> DNA
Perhaps you should read a few of my posts before accusing me of being a McCain mouthpiece.
Kicked Ann to the curb when she said she was going to campaign for the Hildabeast... s pffft
Yes, there is a safe place. In the developing Conservative Party. Welcome!
” (until she writes a good column that I agree with and enjoy).”
ROFL!!!
For good reason. Coulter is gonna vote for Hillary. Ann's insane, she belongs at Moveon.org!
