Why does Ann Coulter advocate that women should not have voting rights?
Edited on Fri Oct-12-07 08:12 AM by madinmaryland
She wants to disenfranchise herself, or is there something that I am missing here?

:shrug:

26. because she is a MORON
SEND ANN COULTER, BUSH, CHENEY, LIMBAUGH, O'REILLY AND ALL CORRUPT GOPS TO THE MOON. Just shoot them up in a space ship. Establish a MOON colony and leave them there. They won't be able to terrorize the people of the earth any longer.

29. Oh please not the moon, that is too close
How about maybe the volcanic moon of Jupiter, IO. Or Pluto, that might be better.

2. Why are you trying to make sense
out of a deranged woman's ravings?
Anyone with a functioning brain and a few grains of common sense knows enough to ignore her.

8. I just found the statement awfully bizarre.
And no, I have no way of wrapping my brain around what she said. Unfortunately, not many people have picked up on what she has actually said: that should would enjoy having her rights taken away from her.

Unless she is not a woman.

21. Of course the statement is bizarre
Coulter is bizarre personified. Makes no sense trying to understand the nonsensical.

4. Why Do You Care What She Thinks?
She's a troglodyte. I don't believe for a minute that she got through law school without using her "feminine charms", nor do i believe she didn't cheat her way through exams.

She is marginally clever and is utterlly devoid of critical thinking or analytical logic.

What she says or thinks shouldn't even prompt a question in your mind.

14. What I find interesting about the comment is that she is actually
advocating giving her rights away. In essence allowing herself to become a slave.

Just really odd.

20. Seems Like Proof of Concept, To Me
She's an idiot. She says things that don't even make sense. A self-invalidating opinion would seem to be proof that we should disregard her every utterance.

second choice to take their vote away. Plain stupidity.

17. And a hypocrite. Didn't she go out of her way to vote illegally in one of
the last elections? If the vote meant so little to her, why did she take the time and effort to vote illegally?

I think because she knows that her only "value" lies in her being a freak. What an existence! Pathetic isn't it?

15. When asked about giving up her right to vote, she said
she'd be happy to do it because it meant only Rethuglicans would be in office.

Riiiiight.

She is so stupid.

22. Because all other women are silly ninnies
Not perspicacious, insightful geniuses like herself. Did you know that some women don't vote Republican because they think that Democrats do a better job of trying to work the system so that it makes women's lives easier? Silly ninnies, I tell you.

Of course, beneath the smug pronouncement is a vein of pure misogyny, similar to the worst racism that continues to animate a large segment of the Republican party's supporters. The idea is that women, as a class of people in the United States, are not really, truly full citizens of the country, at least not in the way that white men are. The same goes for dark-skinned citizens. Sure, some liberal activist judges have misinterpreted the Constitution to extend full citizenship rights to women and blacks, but the reality in Little Arfin' Annie's world is that they don't deserve those rights.

31. If you think Coulter is strange, remember this -
In 2001 a Kansas state senator, Kay O'Connor, said that while she would not repeal the 19th Amendment that gave US women the right to vote, neither did she celebrate it and that to her it was a sign that the US didn't value the family. If it were being considered today, she would vote against it. Senator O'Connor said that in her view if men were doing their job of taking care of women and children, women wouldn't need to vote. O'Connor said that she had been forced into the workplace because of a daughter's medical bills.

33. Uhm, because she's batshit crazy...
No. Really. That's the reason. There is no other reason. In order to use reason or logic to ascertain any individual's intentions, said individual would first need enough intelligence to use reason or logic to have said intentions.

She's bat shit crazy. She doesn't use reason or logic. Nothing she stands for makes any sense. If she stopped and thought about it for 2.2 seconds, she'd be a feminist. Trust me. We don't want her. She would be a liability, because she's a nut bag. Let's leave her on their side and laugh at her silliness. But, for Heaven's sake, don't try to understand her. She's nucking futs. It'll drive you insane if you try to think like her for even a nanosecond.

I'm going to take some Excedrin now. I confused myself with that one.

36. because she knows it will never happen. it's all about pushing peoples buttons.
and she also knows that it will get a rise out of the Dems.

And as a result, she is right. If there was such a thing as a universal ignore button, she would suddenly become irrelevant.

But alas, there isn't, so don't pay attention to that tool.

40. because she has no talent
Edited on Fri Oct-12-07 11:05 AM by GTRMAN
she is a talentless hack. Her only "ability" in life is her willingness to say, due to a complete abscense of conscience, anything that will appeal to an ever shrinking demographic of neanderthals. Sure, there are probably a lot of people that would do the same for the money, given the chance, she just got lucky and landed one of the gigs in her "field of endeavor."

If that so called field didn't exist, she either be flipping burgers or giving head behind the bus station for a living.

47. She's like Ayn Rand. Waiting for a knight in shining armor to rip her bodice.
I rarely pay any attention to her, but her adoration of "strong" men and disdain for "weak" liberals sound a lot like, "Take me! Take me! You Brute!".
