Ann Coulter “The View” Video (01/12/09)
Conservative commentator Ann Coulter hopped into a heated debate with the ladies of The View on Monday when she appeared on the ABC morning chatfest to promote Guilty: Liberal “Victims” and Their Assault on America, her controversial new book blasting The Obamas.

Why is anyone listening to Ann Coulter? I understand that everyone is entitled to their opinion, and freedom of speech is everyone's right, but to put her in the public eye to listen to her spew her crazy ideas is nonsense. Whoopi said it right when she said "you can dish it out, but you can't take it". Ann's sarcasm was disgusting, She attacked Barbara, without provocation, and come on Barbara, please, have an opinion on something!. You should have shut her down. If you ever have her on the show again, I suggest you make it a one guest show and let each woman ask her a specific question then allow them to respond. DON'T GIVE ANYONE THAT POISON SHE HAS WRITTEN. IF THEY ARE REALLY INTERESTED THEY WILL BUY IT. She is dispicable.

Actually, nobody on The View is listening to Ann Coulter. They are so busy talking over her and attacking her that they don't pay any attention or give any thought to her points. I don't know why anyone would subject themselves to that misery, but if she can give it back to them, more power to her. And, they just had to take another jab at Sarah Palin. She must really give them nightmares.

The interesting thing about this entire clip is that there was no one besides Ann talking about anything of substance. The study that she is citing was probably conducted by a liberal social worker who wants to save everyone. It's interesting that once someone comes on with something REAL to say she is drowned out by these babbling magpies.

The truth is that Ann has quoted facts based on extensive research which liberals can't handle. Liberals can't handle the truth about race issues, single parent households and its relation to poverty and criminal behavior. Liberals simply don't like the truth. I especially liked it when Whoopie said those studies have been discounted. What does she base that on?? Whoopie can you offer some of these mysterious studies? Thank you Ann for having the courgage to tell it like it is. I have enormous respect for you. Keep it up, you have my support.

Ann Coulter doesn't appear to have any credentials, or experience; she just makes money by mouthing off in the most provocative way about whatever pisses off non-Republicans. She's a blithering moron who makes a living being obnoxious. She's not black but writes about how blacks think. She's not a mom and writes about how single mothers (as a collective!) create victims. She's not anything but a brainwashed conservative and writes about how wrong the left is. How does she know what these perceived "enemies" think and believe if she can't get outside of her own opinions and biases?

There was a time where I may have read Ann's garbage; however, after educating myself and seeing her display today on The View, I would never endorse anything she does. She is a disrespectful, self -serving, malicious women who wishes to profit from societal problems, rather than contributing to solutions. This ideology does not contribute to "our" childrens futures- frankly, I am very thankful that she is not a mother (God help that child). Anyone who gives this book any credence lacks humanity and is likely, as lonley and disliked as Ann.

I have to comment on "A thinking woman."
Ann Coulter graduated from Cornell with a "cum laude." She is a graduate of Michigan U. Law School. I won't go into her vitae, but I believe she has more education and experience (other than Barbara Walters) dealing in the political arena than any of the other women on The View. She can be obnoxious but she is not even close to being "a blithering moron,"

i watched the view yesterday and i was appalled
by ann coulter s behavior. she is a smug ( thinks she knows it all idiot) that is my take on her. she adds no compassion or caring to what any singel
mother may be forced to do alone raising a child.
mainly it s because, she is still relitively young,
blonde and thinks she is the all american dream
walking, when in reality she is really the american nitemare quacking . if it walks like a duck, talks like
a duck quack quack , then it is a duck simple as
that , and i might add an ugly duckling at that.
keep her away from t v interviews , she has nothing to say, and you know why…? because she says what she means , and in a very very
mean and uncompassionate way. i say boycott
her from all t.v. shows, carolhollenbeck

This was a pointless interview. Actually, I would not even call it an interview. I appears as though the women of The View only had Ann Coulter on the show to attack her. Whenever she started to talk about her book, which is why she was there, one of them immediately changed the topic and went on the offensive. They all had to get their jabs in, especially Whoopi.
This interview was a prime example of the typical liberal mindset, "If you don't share my beliefs and opinions then you are wrong."
It's sad. I used to think Barbara Walters was a serious, respected and unbiased journalist. She threw all of that away the second The View went on the air.

So, citing statistics makes you a hater…how logical. She didn't slam single mothers, she reported what happens to their children. Of course the absent fathers usually set up the situation in the first place, but the choice to not raise them in a married home or adopt them to another couple was made by the mothers. Widowed and divorced mothers raising kids have similar outcomes to those of intact families.
The point is, when the Left denigrated traditional marriage, advocated 'free love', and blurred gender roles, the result was a generation of confused/thoughtless/irresponsible kids thinking that 'a piece of paper' didn't mean anything. The downfall of fatherless children's chances is chronicled on 'pieces of paper': court records, rap sheets, morgue lists, abortion clinic bills, welfare files, etc. You cannot divorce (pun intended) the source from the outcome.

You know, any time you bring up polarized and highly charged emotional issues, people are going to react with emotion. The ladies of "The View" are not (and have never claimed to be) unbiased journalists…they all have similar and dissimilar views on a range of topics. They are there to express their opinions and engage in discourse. It just so happens that yesterday, they all pretty much agreed, that's not always the case, nor should it be that way. Social issues (such as single parenthood) are very touchy subjects and the point is that everyone (including Ann Coulter) is entitled to their opinion. Ann was making an argument and had research/statistics (however arguable) to back up her argument…which is fine.
I think the problem was that she was making a sweeping generalization about a topic she has never personally experienced…a lot of us are guilty of doing that…it's the age old adage "…until you walk a mile in someone else's shoes…" It comes off as VERY insensitive (even if it is true) and God forbid she ever have to walk in a single mother's shoes. God forbid she ever have to work three jobs to provide for her children. God forbid she ever try her best to raise her kids, only to have one of them wander down the wrong path. I think, her perspective might be different if she knew what it was like to walk in those shoes…or maybe not. Some of the jabs and "low blows" from both sides were unneccessary and unfortunate because it took away from, what could have been, an interesting discussion about a topic that we all see differently because we have all experienced differently.
"Judge not, lest you be judged first."
~From a single, educated, Jewish, childless, liberal who thinks it's ok for people to have differing opionions…as long as we express our opinions with compassion…because humanity is a commonality we all share even if our life experiences make us as different as night and day.

What is wrong with that woman? She has GOT to have something wrong with her. How can anyone take her seriously? Even my conservative parents had their jaws on the floor watching this one. Maybe some conservatives like her because they think she deals the jabs liberals "deserve" but that's ridiculous.
Liberals don't fit under one giant umbrella, nor do conservatives. Nobody deserves that kind of vitrolic diatribe. Yes, the women on the View can be irritating, especially Joy Behar, But Barabara Walters and Whoopi Goldberg don't deserve that kind of treatment. And they're right, when Anne has raised a few kids on her own, we'll see what her opinion is of single parents. I know a number of very successful people who are the children of single parents.
Anne Coulter is just insane.

Response to Toni: you're right. A "moron" would describe someone with an intellectual deficit, and someone who graduated from Cornell wouldn't qualify. (By the way, it's "University of Michigan", not "Michigan U.") Nonetheless, Ann draws absolute conclusions where she has no insight or experience. For example, she claimed that since Halle Berry was speaking (during her acceptance speech) for black people, she was therefore identifying with her black father. Perhaps Ms. Berry had other, more complex motives for her speech. Who can know except Ms. Berry? Ann Coulter employs sweeping generalizations and generally profits from creating divisiveness. To me, that's blithering. In this time, the country as a whole is in crisis, and to try so hard to piss people off is just not constructive. Even some of the more staunch Republicans in Congress have had to admit that some of Obama's points and plans have merit. AC would sell far more books being insightful…..people would buy it just to see what she's up to.

Ann Coulter may not be an idiot, but she sure plays one on TV, and in print, and on radio…. Whoopie had it right when she commented on Ann's "act", but her obvious anger with Coulter made the point less impactful. Ann Coulter has been spewing her hate for decades longer than any of us deserve. Far too many people are listening to her nonsense and getting excited about it. It was irritating to watch the interview – everyone, including Coulter – felt too strongly to support their own opinion with authority. I agree with the ladies from the view when it comes to Ann Coulter and her hateful comments and books, but I was disappointed with their inability to manage the interview. On the other hand, I know I couldn't have handled a conversation with Coulter without feeling like my brain might explode! If she is truly as hateful as she puts herself out to be, I feel sorry for her and I hope that someday she finds her soul. If it's an act, let's put her up for an Oscar… And as for the ladies of the View, please stop talking about Coulter and her books – stop supporting her by drawing more attention to her vile opinions or her vile "act", whichever the case may be.
From a woman with at least as much education as Coulter, but much less hate, who chooses not to refer to large parts of our population as "the liberals" or "the conservatives" as if I'm referring to a piece of dog crap on my shoe. I can't wait until people like Coulter stop spending their time and energy trying to divide this country. I don't understand how anybody, even if they consider themselves to be conservatives, can fail to see her for what she is.
P.S. The vast majority of single mothers are not single mothers by choice or by design. Men – both liberal AND conservative – are responsible for abandoning too many of these children and their mothers. And it is the children who are abandoned and unwanted by these men that are at risk – not the loved and cared for children of the very few women who actually ARE single parents by choice.

I am one of those 'liberals' and I honestly don't mind that conservatives want everyone to be perfect and to have an ideal life. I do mind that they don't FUND programs to encourage their aims. For example – they want to outlaw abortion but they don't want to increase funding for adoption agencies. They want people to stop having babies out of wedlock, but they won't fund contraception. They denegrate the African American population, but refuse to fund urban schools enough that they get good teachers that stay. It's a paradox.. one that I hope will evenutally even out. I think EVERYBODY, regardless of race or political situation, wants perfect families, wars that are won in days, no children without families, kids who stay kids until they are 18 – it's Pleasantville and we all want that, but some of us see the reality out there and recognize that some members of society need help, not riducle and insults.

To paraphrase a famously witty and wildly intelligent "queen," "the only thing worse than being talked about is…not being talked about." Perhaps it's time to start punishing bottom-feeders such as Coulter by ignoring them, utterly and completely. (Although I'd like to say I could scarcely be bothered to give her the time of day, it's hard to resist nursing the desire that Ann soon meet her demise at the hands of a murderous criminal raised by a single mother — talk about the ultimate "I told you so!" Is she willing to sacrifice that much for her "art"?)
These admittedly dark thoughts aside, what I find interesting (and, perhaps, most telling) is that, overwhelmingly, the best written, most cogent and considered responses shown above were submitted by liberals, and the nuggets provided by right-wing nut jobs are all but illiterate. Hmmmmm…..food for thought? Ironically enough, one of the greatest deficits of brain-dead, knee-jerk, neo-conservatives seems to be a lack of self-awareness that so perfectly complements their lack of education. Go figure.

It’s really not her fault – she has no idea what it means to be Black in America. She has no idea of what strength is required to be a single parent. Nor did she quote any statistics on the number of successful individuals not in prison that are raised by a single parent. Quote a statistic that shows how many single parents wanted to be – The reason Halle Berry, Barak Obama and many others who identify with the black side of their heritage is because every step we take we are reminded our skin color is vital and the adversities we face say you are black. I’m annoyed with her because her husband didn’t die and leave her with 6 kids who society tells you’re no good if you are not raised by a mother and a father – stop it and be thankful when people like OJ who forgot they were black sound like her, self righteous and condescending – regardless if he was raised in a single parent home or not – if it wasn’t for her and people like her we would forget we are black and proud, should always act like it and and never let people like her act like our skin color is some sort of new revelation.

Ann is abrasive and rude, but no more so than these pretend intellectuals. The point she was not allowed to make is how the very foundation of civilization for 3000 years is marriage and family. It is perhaps society's most important and enduring inatitution. But the Left continues to assault it with paying for fatherless children and gay marriage, Why not bigamy? Incest? Don't they have the right to be happy too? Gays are maybe only 5-6% of the pop, and only a small minority of them wants to get married. They are allowed civil unions everywhere. But we should assault marriage because a very small number wants to force acceptance? The Left may not hate America, they just support everything destructive to it.

The Giant verses the villagers axes, and spears was an interesting thing to watch. Ann the Giant, being nipped at by the tiny villagers was able to hold her own simply based on facts that are cited from sources that are not conservative based. The amazing thing is to see women attacking other women. How can this be? Ann, who is a well read, well educated, strong, outspoken woman should be fully embraced by the female population whereas she is a great example of how intelligent women are and can be. Ladies, appreciate the strength in character, and of the mind of Ann, and follow suit. If I had a daughter, I would want Ann to be one of her mentors. At least Ann is factual, straight forward, and very well learned. Keep going Ann, you are a shining example for other women to follow and for men to follow as well, and this is solely based on your intelligence and committment to truth. CAC

Having dated many single moms, I agree with Ann. I think it’s a shame you all get so easily offended rather than look at the source of the problem: poor choices in breeding partners. If you all would take the necessary precautions, maybe Ann wouldn’t have to write a chapter that “offends” you all so much. And if it were only one child that each of you had, you might have a point. But most of you are repeat offenders many times over.

What Ann Coulter did was to stir-up controversy and create a topic for discussion. It worked!!!! She doesn't have to be the ONE to go out and talk to single mothers, but rather the one to draw attention to the problems created by becoming one. She has a media voice and chooses to use it to voice her opinions. The "ladies" of the View do the exact same thing, but when she brings up topics that hit close to home…it offends the Single Mother (Whoopi) the Perfect Jew (Joy) and Sherry didn't have much to say but in defense of her meal ticket Barbara. Elizabeth didn't say too much because she is a Palin supporter and Ann likes Palin and Barbara was trying to be somewhat diplomatic.
The fact that Obama used the "half black" card to gain office was one that I think many would have played. I guess if it gets you where you want to be then it is OK. You never hear anyone of color saying "I am half white" unless they are looking for the table away from the kitchen.
Obama, be proud of those women who raised you……regardless of the color of their skin. Mama and Grandma raised you, write a book about that.

If people think she is intelligent, it's because they admire her message of hatred and intolerance, bigotry and eugenics purity crap.
Ann Coulter isn't someone you would want to know and I'll never pay a dime or a copper penny for one book of hers. To her audience, those who do buy her books because they think she is gifted and representative of what it means to be human, their hatred is noted.
As for you folks who believe her stats and sources are representative of her spin, I recommend you take two interesting classes 1) statistics 2) marketing. You'll learn how to use statistics to make any point you wish. How the so called averages are manipulated will blow your minds.

Coulter couldn't even finish an answer before one of them cut in with some offended, defensive "UH-UH!!" kind of diatribe. Barbara Walters was about the only level-headed one among them.

Ann is just disgusting. Her writing and publicity is just insane. She writes about single mothers, but is not married or even a mother. She writes about half blacks, but she is whiter than myself. Ever heard of people who live in glass houses not throwing stones?
I just love how she quotes statistics that support the "fact" that behind most every criminal in jail, there is a single mother. Never mind that that single mother might have gotten pregnant on accident and the father didn't want to stick around, was raped, or the father ran off with his secretary. Never mind that she has to work several jobs to support these kids and spends every waking moment possible trying to help them be the best they can. Never mind that everyone is able to make their own choices or that peer pressure can be very hard to go against. Never mind that once a child reaches 18, they are free to do what they want. Never mind any of that. So, going off what Ann said, even if you are in a marriage that is falling apart (no longer seeing eye to eye, someone is abusive, cheaters, growing apart) and you are fighting on a regular basis, you should stay together for the kids. Don't worry, the kids will hear every harsh word spoken, whispered, or screamed. They will see any bruises or alcohol that destroys the family. You have to stay together for the kids. I want to know where she is getting her statistics because if my parents would have stayed together, I would have slapped them both stupid. My mom raised my brother and me working two jobs, very little daycare/babysitting, and both of our fathers not in our lives at all. My brother's father (yes we have different fathers) raped my mother and owns a porn shop in which he had my brother working. My brother actually had his father around more than I did. And guess who has spent time in trouble with the law? One guess. NOT me. And I love when someone points out its the mother's fault because of her poor choice of partner. Some people are just not made to be parents and end up running out on the kids. And we blame good ol' mom. You know mother's day cards sell out in prisons more than father's day cards? Think about that one a little while.
Point in all this? I'm glad she's not a mother. That means that when she's gone, her blood line and way of thinking fades that much more. She has no idea what she's talking about and when she's on tv, she cuts down everyone around her. Ever watch the other interview with Matt Lauer? She spent the first 5 minutes of her interview talking about the network and her being "banned". Grow up, Ann. You don't know what you are talking about.
Sadly enough, any publicity is good publicity. Even when its bad publicity.

but yoreu right the View hosts should have let her talk just so people can tell how she's just
ridicu;ous she can be while she's laughing o the bank!

Ann Coulter has the facts. She is right on all counts, particularly on the issue of single mothers. Illegitimate children (No Fathers In the Home) raised unsuccessfully by single women are the primary cause of our culture's criminal behavior (White and Black).
Unfortunately, the View Crew are "clueless". Ann Coulter is a Gem. Whoopie is simply not in her class when it comes to discussing issues of importance. Neither are the other "ladies".

They did not even let her speak. They are obviously not intelligent and rude.

It's all $ – It's not personal. The View gets money from the increased ratings, Ann gets money from the show … so why all the fighting? Win-Win in this economy. Ann has some shocking, funny points of how America has evolved – in many cases – for the worst. GO Marriage! I will buy the book.

Ann Coulter is an idiot, plain and simple!!! She thinks people do not hate her. Well, I hate her and everything for which she stands. I think she is unhappy because she is ugly (inside and out), does not have an kids, and is not married. Why are people giving her so much energy? Just ignore her and maybe she will go away. She also thinks she is like because she has sold 7 million copies of her stupid book. Well, McDonald's sells millions of hamburgers everyday, but that doesn't mean they make a good burger.

What are some of you people talking about?I disagree with Ann on the War and some of the characters in the GOP…But she is DEAD ON CORRECT on many other things…The bigoted buffoons on The View are appalling….Catholics,whites,men and unborn children,not to mention decent people in general,always get bashed by these hateful women….

Barbara Walters and Whoopie Goldberg have histories of intolerant comments and hypocrisy…They need to be exposed…Whoopie is the one who couldn't "take it" if people really knew of the things she has said….

Ann Coulter has BALLS OF STEEL!!! Why would anyone subject themselves to the torture everyone of those ladies proceeded to inflict. It is not an "act" she believes whole heartily what she is so called "spewing." Nobody would go through that if they did not truly believe in their cause.

Well, Ann has balls for going on one of the most liberal, one sided shows in history, where even the audience scorns anyone who does not fit the liberal, narrow minded, brainwashed ideal. Every single time a conservative shows up on the view, the audience boos what they say, and claps when one of the liberal women states some stupid opinion. Only Elizabeth is the exception. Anyway, Ann was not allowed to answer squat, and then Whoopi ends it by saying "you can dish it out but you can't take it". is that an attack?? hmm I'll have to think about it.

Why Ann Coultier would go on a show with the likes of Joy is beyond me. Coulter's views are backed by research data and not from a radical position like Behar's. On the other hand Sherry absolutely has the mind of a two year old and Whoopi likes to play the media. Barbara on the other hand shows her political view on the left, as her guests are mostly left wingers. There is no balance.

in response to Toni, having an education only means you paid enough attention to pass the required courses, it does not mean that you have common sense, or compassion, or any other characteristic that is required for surviving in the real world, you can still be a “blithering moron” even with a masters degree!

Cynthia, I realize you posted sometime ago but I hope you read this. OK, Mcdonalds sells millions of burgers each day but that does not mean they make a good burger? Then why are folks buying them? To eat a bad burger? This illustrates liberals lack of logic. Come up with one thing Coulter said on that show that was not true. Just one! Come on! Leave out the emotion and name calling. Think rationally. And for you others, just how do you have a baby accidentally? Don’t you have to have sex? And don’t count rape. The millions of single moms were not all raped. You all hate Ann because she cuts through the excuse making and tells the truth. And Dimples, get the racial chip off your shoulder. Nobody cares anymore about you being black.
