She's pointing out the insanity of ObamaCare's policy of considering anyone under 26 as being a child and being covered on their parents' insurance policy. If they are 'children' for the purpose of insurance then why should they be allowed to vote? They're children, right? Well, if they are NOT children, why are they still covered on their parents' insurance policies as if they were children.
Some people's hatred of Ann blinds them to the way she used wit to make her point.

She's #49. I'd say that was pretty relevant.

Ann who?

The only people that pay any attention to her are the ones that are staight ticket kool aid injectors from the extremes of either party.

She makes a living by trolling in real life instead of on message boards. She must have a new book coming out so time to stir the pot.

Liberals either do not get satire or they refuse to get it so they can have something stupid to argue about.
Ahhh, Ferd, oldboy, how nice of you to defend Ann. Unfortunately, I just see her babbling as just that, babbling. Ann should know better than to try using satire. She should write a more straightforward "rant"......

defending Ann isnt the point.

pointing out the fact that the wackadoodle leftest evidently cannot read is.

Should we take away anyones right to vote because one person does not agree with how they voted?

Once you start taking away people's right to vote, everyone loses freedom.

Look at any dictatorship first elected, and they did the same to protect "the people".

She says to take away people's right to vote because they didn't vote the way they liked, and that voting population gets smaller and smaller. To do so in the name of freedom takes some real balls.

People rant about this one party protecting people's rights and freedoms. Then people come out with this crap. Truly awe inspiring the cognitive dissidence to justify this kind of thinking. What is funny is when she starts ranting about anyone who doesn't agree with her as "drinking the Kool-Aid". Which proves the fact that...

This is the first time I have seen Ann Coulter's name mentioned in months. I doubt the woman has enough gray matter to think anything through to a logical conclusion.

I wasn't serious. Sorry if that didn't come across. But the point remains though...if we hadn't had the young voter turnout we might be better off.

Parents should be the ones who are able to make the decision on whether or not to cover their children under their policy and that is exactly what the healthcare plan allows. Should we ban college kids from voting as well since most of them are covered under their parents insurance? I'm sure Ann would like to ban that as well.

I think we should probably either pass a law requiring Ann Coulter to wear a turtleneck so we're not forced to view her Adam's Apple, or else, a law stating that all women with Adam's Apples be stripped of their citizenship and right to vote. Then again, she doesn't really know where to vote, as we've seen in the past.
