Ann Coulter’s #BringBackOurGirls lampoon backfires
KC Star ^ | 5/13/14 | LISA GUTIERREZ

Posted on 05/13/2014 12:16:33 PM PDT by Oliviaforever

She and her fellow conservatives have been on a roll the past few days mocking the #BringBackOurGirls social media campaign launched to call attention to 300 kidnapped Nigerian girls.

First Lady Michelle Obama became the face of the campaign when she posed with a small white sign with the hashtag written on it.

Ann Coulter does not deserve this treatment by these social media leftists.

You can actually tell by the reaction that Coulter scored a hit.

could be worse.

Coulter could be using hashtags and selfies in place of real foreign policies.

Unfortunately the Twittersphere has been flooded, and the Millenials now believe that Coulter is the bad guy in this.

They can now literally create their own reality.
Hunker down, it’s gonna be a rough ride.

Funny how Shelly’s useless sign is played in the media as “doing something.” A single minute of writing passes as an enduring act.

I honestly can’t understand why commentators hate this campaign. The fact that we’re talking about it means it was successful in what it set out to accomplish. Criticize the Mooch for her ridiculous, insincere photo-op, but there’s not reason to dismiss the campaign.

I read Lisa’s little, tiny article. Couldn’t find the part where Coulter’s sign “backfired”. Just because a bunch of America-hating, commie libs made some smartass commie remarks, I wouldn’t consider that a “backfire”.

I’m puzzled as to why the lefties are Declaring Victory (or, declaring a Coulter Fail) here.

1. Coulter tweeted a selfie with a white sign and a hashtag message satirizing Michell Obama’s #BringBackOurGirls.

2. A bunch of lefties photoshopped Coulter’s sign to say various ridiculous things.

These meta-satires may or may not be funny, but my point is that they could be done to ANYone, no matter what the initial message is. I “fail” to see how this is an #AnnCoulterFail; it’s just a lot (!) of her critics making a lot of photoshops lampooning her. So what? Do these morons think, “A lot of people lampooned her, therefore she’s wrong/ therefore we win”?

Be careful. You can’t say anything positive about the campaign. They hate it and nothing you say will change their minds. They don’t care that it is being discussed at full speed and until this brilliant campaign was never mentioned. They don’t care. Some say we should stay out of it because the little girls are not American. These are who we are dealing with.
