How can she not realize that every other word that comes out of her mouth causes hatred against others? I don't understand if she actually believes that what she's saying is correct, or if she's just doing it for attention.

I think its a combination of things.
I do believe extreme right wing Conservatives actually believe much of the crap they spew but people like Ann Coulter go about spewing their bullshit in particular ways to suit their agenda.
Like someone mentioned above its baiting.

William F Buckley and Edmund Burke are both dead, so I don't know where you'd find any.

Perhaps if we all just ignore her, she'll disappear.....like an apparition or something.....
OR, we could all call her a brilliant socialist, just to drive her slowly mad.

I thought everyone would enjoy this gem from Ann:
Quote:

Coulter said that Canadians "better hope the United States doesn't roll over one night and crush them. They are lucky we allow them to exist on the same continent."
|
Classy.

Hell, I'll be the first one to say that I'd go to a free event just to boo and start a riot.
That's just my style. ;D

I love when americans bad mouth Canadians, and imply military domination over us. We'll burn down their capital, just like last time they declared war on us

And that is the sad thing...the most influential ideological proponents of conservatism seemed to come mostly from the 18th and 19th centuries.
Who is left? The likes of Ann Coulter, Bill O'Reily and much of the Republican Party. These pundits and politicos have allowed the likes of Bush to utterly discredit what was once a perfectly viable ideology.
I'm longing for true ideological debate, and I'm not going to get it with Coulter.
I fear I'm reiterating earlier points, but this goes out to conservatives...
Do not let Ann Coulter speak for you. She serves herself and herself alone and will ruin your movement. You deserve better representation than from her.

Do you even read the rest of the blog? They posted at least one post from the blog that definitely constituted hate speech.
The intention of the group is clearly hateful, intolerant and disgusting. Just taking the title and saying oh all they did was create a group titled Palestine, not Israel is deliberately ignoring the intention for whatever reason. Its clearly a group to spread hatred for Israel and Jewish people or "subhumans" in the words of one of the group members. Hmmm, I seem to remember someone else who had similar feelings on Jews.
The point kind of is that there is further elaboration and even if there wasn't there's obviously a reason they're saying it and its not b/c they think Palestine is a cooler name for the area.

Since you can't read, it said " It's called Palestine, not Israel" |

I think the protests were a bad idea. Protests and controversy are exactly what Coulter wants. Why do you think she became popular in the first place? If no one showed up and there was almost no media attention for the speech, then she have never said a thing about Canada again. Now she's yapping her mouth off at Canada, which is exactly the opposite of what the protestors wanted in the first place.
