Ann Coulter set Twitter on fire tonight with her remarks in the analysis period following the last presidential debate. @AnnCoulter posted:
"I highly approve of Romney's decision to be kind and gentle to the retard."
Coulter, a Conservative writer often featured as a political pundit on news programs, is known for her abrasive personality and ability to promote her ideals despite extreme opposition. She was once attacked during a speech at a college with a violent hit in the face with a pie. Tonight, her poor choice of a word may cost her some valuable alliances.
While her use of the "r" word, as people politely refer to the term in modern society, probably reflects the way the term was used in everyday society in her formative years; it was commonly used in school and everywhere else in a teasing sort of way until 10 or 15 years ago.

Somewhere Joe Biden is going; "See? See? I'm not the only one here."
That’s an insult to tards everywhere.
Hate her. I know she can make some zinging conservative points. But I have a son with a lower IQ and he is a lot more loving and honest than she is. Grrrrr.
She should apologize immediately.
You are correct.
>> Tonight, her poor choice of a word may cost her some valuable alliances.
True; no self-respecting retard will ever again have anything to do with Ann Coulter.
The girl still needs a bunch more sammiches, but she nails this one .. LOL
She’s just nasty at times.
The replies here are proof that even free-speech conservatives can turn on a dime and seek to silence the politically incorrect.
As opposed to the President himself joking about being a Special Olympian in bowling. Get over yourselves, libs. It’s called a joke.
No one here is questioning whether she has the right to say it; I just think it’s in poor taste. Conservatives can do better than hurl schoolyard taunts.
Totally agree. What an insult to those sweet souls out there. Sarah Palin should say something.
Probably, but she won't. I don't think she has ever apologized for anything she's said, she'll just go on the attack and bring up a time someone on the other side said something similar which, I guess in her mind at least, gives her free rein to use the same language.
I know many, even on here, like Coulter. But I really think she is our side's version of a Bill Maher. That is to say a indiscriminate bomb thrower who ends up doing as much damage to their own side as the other.
Past retard, he is solid insane. All communists have that insane trait since their objective is to destroy the masses to reduce those to slave of the State. Most Democrats are communists.
Ann should call him “special” or “exceptional”.
I cringed when I heard her use that word. It definitely was in poor taste.
That was rude of her...
I think “imbecile” or “moron” is a less prejorative term. Haha!
She really shouldn’t have said it, and I imagine we will hear from Palin about this.
