Coulter advocates punching protesters on live TV

John Byrne
Published: Thursday January 8, 2009

Outspoken conservative author Ann Coulter said Republicans should have "punched" two protesters who interrupted Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's speech to the Republican National Convention last September on Tuesday's "Lou Dobbs Tonight."'

Coulter, known for her over-the-top attacks on Democrats, bemoaned the liberal protesters and the muted response of "strong Republican men" on the convention floor.

"How about a punch in the yap to these screaming banshees?" she asked. She also tried to tie the two women to Obama, saying they were "Obama bundlers." A video of her comments appears below.

Coulter also praised NBC's Matt Lauer, who recently interviewed her on The Today Show after sharp criticism from liberal bloggers.

"Oh, it was fabulous," Coulter said of her interview with Matt Lauer on NBC's The Today Show.

Dobbs praised the conservative icon, saying she had the "sharpest tongue" and calling her the sharpest wit out there." He added that he "admire[d] the energy you bring to your cause."

One of the protesters is pictured above right as law enforcement offers placed a hand over her mouth. In a September 2008 press release, they said they "adjusted their clothes to reveal pink slips that read 'Palin is not a woman's choice,'... [and] yelled "Women say no to war!" and "Women need a vice-president for peace!'"

Code Pink, a anti-war group, is known for their aggressive tactics. They also interrupted a speech by Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) on global warming in 2007.

Fox News morning host Brian Kilmead said that the Clinton protester should have been tased.

"They should Tase this guy," Kilmead said. "At one point with security so high and tensions on edge, don't you think they're going to get at the very least Tased or beaten to a pulp by somebody? These people look threatening."

"I would be for Tasing anyone in Code Pink," he added. "I'm pro-Pink Tasing."

LOL!

Over the top? Code Pink is over the top.

[GeorgiaDawg32]

get with the program..any conservative is “over the top” while a liberal, with the attitude toward conservatives is considered “mainstream” and only saying what “everyone” thinks..

Outspoken conservative author Ann Coulter said Republicans should have "punched" two protesters who interrupted Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's speech to the Republican National Convention last September on Tuesday's "Lou Dobbs Tonight."'

If I recall, the code pink communist interrupted John McCain's acceptance speech.

She had no "right to speak". She was trying to prevent the Republican's right to peaceful assembly and free speech. She was not invited to make comments. She spoke out of turn. She was a Stalinist with no respect for the rights of others.

If she'd thrown a shoe, it would've been a violent act.

And the protesters who've been convicted of plotting to firebomb the GOP convention have been completely overlooked by the MSM.

What of those "protesters"? When they do not gather for peaceful protest, they should not be surprised to find the attacked striking back. Then again, look at how the media is griping at Israel for returning fire on Hamas.

Since when was freedom of speech misconstrued to mean interfering with somebody else's freedom of speech?

[samtheman]

Ann has been at her absolute best these last few days. And when she says she’s “the only man in the Republican Party”... she’s got THAT right!

What a bunch of wusses the R-men all are. (Or mostly all. A couple of standout exceptions.)

[albie]

Coulter/Palin 2012!

[weegee]

The courts have also determined that it is free speech to burn someone else’s stolen flag.

[SolidWood]

At the very least Coulter should be Press Secretary.

She also tried to tie the two women to Obama, saying they were "Obama bundlers."

Which is true.

I knew I liked Kilmead.

I sympathise with her remarks. Nevertheless, it seems that protesters only get tazed at Democrat rallies. Protesting Republicans, very safe; protesting Democrats, on the other hand can get you a world of hurt.

13 posts and still the rules are ignored - we have RULES here!

LOL is right. Brian Kilmeade is priceless, just priceless. I adore him.

[popdonnelly]

That might be the only way to get the ubiquitous protestors to shut up. They seem to think that what they have to say is more important than anything else.
