Someone should write a book about Ann Coulter called "CHILDLESS"

[Proud2BAmurkin]

I know no man would marry that skink so it probably doesn't have any kids and never will, it's just a shriveled up old barren wench with its rePUKE politics to keep it warm.

[proud2BlibKansan]

1. Or they could call it 'Brainless'

[SalmonChantedEvening]

3. Better yet, Truthless.

She's the worst offender among many on the reactionary right when it comes to out and out disregard for the truth.

76. I read (your?) original post about this ...

...a while back.

I was guilty of referring to that sub-human creature as "Ann-the-Man," I had done it as a denial that my gender could produce such a thing (A.C.). It did not occur to me that my statements were actually bigoted against transsexuals (though, admittedly sexist).

I listened to what you and others had to say ... I have never used that term to refer to that hideous creature again. Thank you for pointing out my insensitivity and ignorance.

[mdmc]

84. love your sig

peace and low stress

[blonndee]

7. That's the best you can do with Coulter?

That she'll be childless? Is that supposed to be some kind of insult?

She's unmarryable, you say, and can't bear children and will be a "shriveled up, old, barren wench"? So that's what determines the worth of a woman. :eyes:

Glad to know.


ETA: wench, can't forget wench.

[MuseRider]

9. I was gonna say but

you beat me to it. I have a husband and kids. The kids were wonderful but I have yet to understand the need for a man in my life. I do not get my reputation or any other kind of definition of myself through being married.

I think this post explains more about others than it does Coulter.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

10. child bearing potential determines the worth of a rePUKE woman

Ask any rePUKE man or woman

[blondeatlast]

11. I agree. All that material to work with and the only thing offered in the

OP is that she's not "marrying" or "mother" material?

Dis I take a wrong turn on the information highway just now?

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

12. "The Fascist Party Doll" ..... (thanks to Richard Belzer..his name for

her as mentioned on Real Time)

[hyphenate]

66. That's funny!

I just picked up watching SVU fairly recently, and I've noticed the writers are all lefties. I figured Belzer for a liberal a long time ago, when he was working on other shows.

[pinto]

13. Thank god we don't judge people by their ability to have kids.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

15. We don't but rePUKES like Ann the skink do. n/t

.

[Cobalt Violet]

14. Not good.

Not good at all. With so much to attack her on, why that?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

16. Because it's what Ann says determines her value.

.

[blondeatlast]

18. She's demonstrably wrong and this thread perpetuates her

false argument and even gives it credibility.

[Cobalt Violet]

35. Okay. I didn't know that.

I tuned out what she has to say a long time ago. I never really heard her say that. I just can't stand to listen or read anything she has to say.

[Beelzebud]

17. I didn't think transexuals could get pregnant?

I could be wrong though. :D

[Lerkfish]

19. I know you didn't mean it that way, but as someone who was childless

until very late in life, I would not want that to be used as an ephithet, even against coulter.

[blondeatlast]

21. Another excellent point. I was in the same situation and it hurt

badly until I was able.

How many women want to have children but will be unable for whatever reason?

I despise Ms. Coulter, but I wouldn't wish the pain of being childless NOT by choice on anyone--not even her.

.

[IndyJones]

60. I agree with you. This whole "childless" stuff is pretty mean to read.

I hope that women reading this thread don't walk away with hurt feelings. I don't think that joking about someone's ability to have children is very classy.

Who says she's childless because she can't have kids? Maybe she doesn't want them. But joking about someone's procreation is wrong. You all may be turning people away from this board who have some very positive views to read.

[KingFlorez]

20. Who would want to marry her anyway?

Except for a few nasty Freepers and they don't count as people.

23. What a disgusting, misogynistic, flamebait post

When did being childless become matter for insult? Or being "barren", for that matter? Of course, I live in the 21st century where antequated terms like "barren" have been replaced with more medically-correct terms like "sterile" or "infertile". At any rate, I fail to see how someone's lack of children, or lack of ability to have children can be a method of insult, or a form of humour.

I didn't realize I had stumbled across Free Republic.

absolutely disgusting. You should be ashamed of yourself for this unnecessary, flamebaiting post.

[Beelzebud]

24. It only makes sense because she argues for the "family values" crowd.

It's no different than attacking Bill Bennet for being a compulsive gambler, while at the same time saying it's wrong and ppl shouldn't do it.

Ann Coulter attacks liberals for not having family values, or even morals, so it's fair to call her on her bullshit.

[Heddi]

29. I'm sorry, but I'm not buying it

There is nothing funny and there is nothing insulting about being without children--either by choice or by nature. Equally, there is nothing funny and there is nothing insulting about being "barren".

I fail to see the point being made other than so-called Democrats are willing to stoop to the level of Republicans and insult people on their personal choice or biological determination regarding parenthood. I don't find it funny, and I'm not sure why the OP (as well as others in this thread) think that it's funny AND a source of insult. I had no idea that one should be "ashamed" for being infertile.

[blondeatlast]

38. First off, this is like mocking a cripple. Being childless

when you desire children is no laughing matter; I was that way for years. I may despise the woman, and indeed I do, but I wouldn't wish that pain on anyone--even my worst enemy--for which AC certainly qualifies.

Second--holy crap; we're talking about Ann Coulter here.

She offers plenty of ammunition for us; we don't have to resort to base, sexist attacks such as this.

[Beelzebud]

45. Here's the thing though. Is Miss family values married?

It's not just that she has no kids. She has no husband. She has no family, and yet she chastizes liberals for lacking family values and morals.

I do agree it's a cheap shot, but she deserves every cheap shot she gets.

[blonndee]

48. Using childless and not being married as an insult is a cheap shot to many

people, not just Coulter

[IndyJones]

63. She has parents and siblings, right? So she does have a family.

Are you so ignorant as to imply that if a woman has no children then she has no family?

[IndyJones]

61. So a woman with no kids doesn't have family values? Grow up!

[Mr_Spock]

74. I agree with you - Coulter is a major hypocrite and a bigot

Nothing said about her applies to anyone else.

There is nothing bad that could be said about her that I would disagree with.

Ann Coultwhore is pure evil.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

28. In rePUKE land, God makes women barren

In Ann Coulter's land.

[Heddi]

32. I really don't care

Your thread does nothing more than perpetuate the Republican myth that people without children are shameful, and those who cannot have children as a product of their biology ("barren") should be ashamed and are lesser people because of it.

You're not making a point. You're not being funny. You're not being clever. You're being purpusefully insulting to a large number of people and apparently really don't care because it's Making Fun Of Republicans.

Abso-fucking-lutely disgusting

[Jazz2006]

57. Heddi's response thirded. n/t

[IndyJones]

62. How do you know she is infertile? Got a link with some back up?

[WindRavenX]

34. what she said

As usual, spot on Heddi :thumbsup:

[Mr_Spock]

73. Coulter doesn't practice what she preaches

She's evil and a hypocrite - there is no bad thing said that can be too bad for her.

Ann Coultwhore is pure evil.

[izzybeans]

25. maybe a book called "How to talk to Ann Coulture; A study in

overcoming fascism...or why it's hilarious to fuck with her mind."

It could be a humor book. I imagine all sorts of wonderful yarns could be told on the subject.

[mondo joe]

26. What a weak, weak line.

No man will want her?

She won't have children?

:eyes:

[Proud2BAmurkin]

27. A rePUKE childless woman no man marries is worthless

or didn't you know that

[mondo joe]

31. I don't much believe in adopting or promoting others' values.

Coulter deserves to be called on what she does.

Not her reproductive status.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

36. I believe in applying others' values to them

why not?

[blondeatlast]

40. Doing so lends their ridiculous values credibility.

That's their game, and I won't play it.

[mondo joe]

47. And as soon as Coulter says something that devalues the single or

childless, by all means call her on her hypocrisy.

But I don't suggest you adopt it as your own.

[never_get_over_it]

49. OK please get a clue

As an unmarried, childless progressive woman I find the title insulting, hurtful and frankly disgusting. And who says you have to ba married to have a child - I've never been married and still tried to have a child for years - sadly unsuccessfully.

How about this one - if you are claiming that she is preaching family values - and because of that should have a family - then how about this for a title

Ann Coulter - HYPOCRITE

[Djinn]

69. Given that many Republicans

have at least some race based discriminatory views I guess it’d be OK to slag off a Republican for being a dirty n***r then?

No? then all the crap about Coulter isn’t OK either.

She gives everyone so much ammunition that this tired old misogynist claptrap is totally unneccesarry - this also applies to the "the Bush twins are sluts" type posts.

If the only thing one can think of to debate/counter someone with is a recourse to sexism then they should brush up their debating skills

[MuseRider]

37. No woman is worthless

certainly not based on her marital status or her lack of children. This is absurd and offensive and I don't give a shit what anyone else thinks from her side of the aisle.

I expect better from our side, much better.

On Edit Did it ever occur to anyone here how offensive this might be to the transgendered community? Come on now, how many people can we insult on one thread?

[Marie26]

44. How about a Dem childless woman?

Is she worthless too?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

55. No n/t

n/t

[IndyJones]

64. You think that a woman needs a man in order to have "worth"?

What century are you living in?

[lukasahero]

82. You do realize they believe that of all women, right?

In repeating their BS, you are supporting their argument that women are worthless.

[Nobody]

30. and this is an insult because....

I resemble that remark and I am diametrically opposite to Ann Coulter in every way.

39. Turning this argument back on her gives her ridiculous argument

credibility it certainly doesn't deserve.

By turning this back on her, we become as base and sexist as she is--and I won't do it.

[Rocket Surgeon]

42. I'm not going to go so far as to call her a man, but on the bright side,

she won't be indoctrinating any impressionable youth or passing on her genetic material to the next generation.

[Marie26]

43. Ew. n/t

[radio4progressives]

46. I suppose you meant this as a tongue firmly planted in cheek...

but i lemme suggest coming up with something a bit more salient and creative counter punch than relying on misogynistic types of screeds.. :hi:

[WhiteTara]

50. How about "Motherless" n/t

[bumblebee1]

56. You mean skank, right?

A skink is a lizard. Please don't insult lizards.

[juliana24]

58. I thought Coulter WAS a lizard !

A "lot-lizard" that is :)

[SeveneightyWhoa]

59. You can do better than that.

How about "MARRIED ... TO HITLER"?

Or,

"HITLER'S FEMALE PROTEGE"

Or,

"MUSSOLINI IN DRAG"

Or,

"MUSSOLINI WITH LARGER TESTES"

Also, click here to see Ann's new website!

[hyphenate]

65. She's in her forties now, anyhow.

If she even got pregnant, she'd have a very, very risky pregnancy because she's anorexic, and has probably damaged her kidneys as well as her liver as a result.


PS: I have no problem with the thread's premise. I think what the OP was trying to say was that Annie is the biggest hypocrite in the puke party--a party that defines the term of a wife as barefoot and pregnant, and that Annie just doesn't fit the part in the puke party.

Most of the women I know who are liberals, don't de-valuate someone in their own party for their lifestyle--whatever they choose to do with themselves is cool. It's when a party--like the GOP--defines someone based on the amount of children they have, that it becomes an insult to the one purporting to be part of that party.

Also, I "get it" about the transsexual bit, but hell, it's part of the reason Annie is such an excellent target for ridicule. She thinks, for some reason, that she's attractive, but to look at her brings revulsion to most of us who can see her every flaw, and that includes her complete resemblance to a drag queen, whether she is, or not. And, of course, we know what the party to the right thinks of those with alternative lifestyle.

[KitchenWitch]

67. Try heartless.

[MazeRat7]

68. Having no children is the only thing she has done right.

Wow, never thought I would find something positive in ann-the-man. But thanks DU for pointing that out. While she certainly is a bat-shit crazy windbag, at least she is not a breeder and now I have something positive about her to point out during dinner conversations.

MZr7

[BooScout]

70. What a stupid post.

I loathe Ann Coulter. But basically you have sunk to her level with using a woman's ability to attract a husband and bear children in your argument of why you detest her. Please don't use the argument that it's her criteria. You insult every woman here with your baseless drivel.

[Dora]

79. I agree vehemently. The OP is an embarassment. n/t

[B Calm]

71. CHILDLESS is a good name! I can see millions of Right-Wing

Christian Fundamentalists buying the book for the cover alone.

[REP]

72. I'm Liberal, Sterilized and Child-Free

I guess that makes me worthless as a woman in your eyes, huh. :puke:

Dan the Mann Coulter has done a lot wrong, but not having children isn't one of them.

[No Exit]

75. I prefer "barren"--and NOT b/c she has no children...

[Sugar Smack]

77. Your post is utter bullshit.

[newportdadde]

78. Don't let her get to you she doesn't believe that garbage its just money.

Lets be real here she makes up with dumb stuff to create buzz and get cash. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't believe a word of it. The best thing you can do it just IGNORE HER.

[Karenina]

80. The OP is misogynistic garbage

and I'm disappointed and AMAZED this thread is still here.

[blondeatlast]

81. I'm guessing there were no GD Mods on duty last night.

That is the only explanation I can come up with.

This thread is embarrassing and disgusting.

[lukasahero]

83. I don't know

The OP has gotten such an ass-whooping, I think the thread should stand. It gave a lot of people a good opportunity to speak to what is wrong with it - and boy did they. :)

[Pool Hall Ace]

85. Not all women hanker for marriage and bebbehs.

Perhaps it was her choice.

And you probably think of yourself as progressive. :eyes:
