That man is up there at the top of the list of the most vial pieces of trash around. No wonder the right loves him so much

It was racial, but politics is racial. Who says it's not?

Liberals have cultivated generations of Gimmegrants across this country, they aren't going to vote for anyone who wants to eliminate the wasted tax dollars that Dems funnel to them.

Just look at how liberals treat conservative blacks, they're trained to attack anyone who threatens their handouts on command like caged zoo animals.
It's that black and white (pun intended) for you, huh? You don't see anything wrong with what you just said?

"Our blacks are so much better than their blacks," she said, speaking of Democrats. "To become a black Republican, you don't just roll into it. You're not going with the flow...and that's why we have very impressive blacks in the Republican party."
Read in context it's clear she had no racist intent. However using "our blacks" with the racial history of this country was a poor use of words. She could have simply said "Black Republicans" are better then "Black Democrats" because...... and been done with it.

In the case of Democrats and Blacks, that wouldn't be too far off the mark.

I also liked how she blurted out "No John Conyers in our party, no Maxine Waters..."

What that stupid woman doesn't know is John Conyers is a Civil Rights pioneer almost without equal in politics, and Maxine Waters is a national treasure, a woman who is immensely respected for her compassion and dedication to those who most need help. Read her biography sometime and you'll see her accomplishments, and they are many.

What Annie was really saying is the GOP doesn't have "uppity blacks" in it.

Annie, you failed. Again.

I didn't believe that she would say that quote, but yes, it is there. But if you listen to the whole thing she clearly means well. Sounds like Ann is all in for Herman Cain.

I predict that within 24 hours Jim Hoft at Gateway pundit will produce a parallel quote from some Democrat. As Bush said the 'soft bigotry of low expectations' is part of Dems DNA and that quote's gotta be out there.

I bet that if two women accused Barack Obama of sexual harassment and then the women were given settlements to remain silent, that Ann Coulter totally wouldn't bring up the subject or have anything to say about the issue.
