Whether Ann Coulter actually said it, the thread title was a bright spot in my day. We'll be seeing more such remarks in coming times. It will be like an epidemic of plague has passed and we've survived.

Bye.
Twenty years down the road I will undoubtedly be dead and it will be your problem, sonny.

It did not become considered as "hand out" by Poor White society, until it included American minorities as being eligible participants. Because the Poor White no longer had it as a singularly benefit to the madness of "white privilege" ONLY to participate in public service programs".
Poor Whites voted on which ever side they thought would give "Only" to themselves the benefits of Public Assistance. It's still today, a big part of their wants from the Republican Electorate, is to make benefits available to poor whites only.

Blacks began to vote Democrat, once the southern democrats moved into and dominated the Republican Party and started pushing the same agenda that the racist and segregationist of the old southern democrats once pushed.

History has it all recorded, no attempt or effort to distort that truth will stand.
And no attempt or effort to correct the ignorance of racists like you are trying to do is likely to work, but I'm always encouraged to see the effort made anyway.

Agreed. Trump translators have a way of making all things Trump sound intelligent and flawless. Well flawless anyway...

Not sure that's "decent" enough. Even Cruz did better, scary and crazy enough as that is, but maybe now that we know a little more about what Trump is and/or isn't, the next go around will be different. I'm still thinking the more likely competitive and better alternative to Trump will not come from the Republican party.

Oh look, another liberal accusing those who disagree with her of racism.

Does the name-calling and projection ever get old with you kids?

It wouldn't surprise me to see Cruz run against Trump. I doubt all is forgiven after Trump attacked Cruz's wife.

I accuse people of being racist when they project racist ideas and notions, like George Wallace did and all the people who can't seem to understand that history as needed, for what seem like more racist reasons. As Chance and Change tried to explain. If that is "name calling" according to you then guilty as charged, but I call it an intolerance of racist ignorance which is an intolerance we should ALL share and express in no uncertain terms!

While she, for once, is right she's still a completely vile human being. NO thanks!
