Our favorite possible transgender is at it again...

so anyone want to speculate if she did it.

People keep paying attention to her. It's like feeding a troll, you do it and he/she keeps coming back for more.

Ignore he/r.

Has anyone ever put the question directly to her that she may be a man?

Well, they call her Man Coulter all the time, she should have gotten the hint.

Let me save ya'll some time and use my psychic powers to tell y'all the contents of the next umpteen pages. All the people who don't like her are going to automatically assume she's guilty and then proceed to talk shit like there's a cash prize for it. All the people who like her will either defend her, or adopt a 'let's wait and see' approach. And there will also be a lot of stupid jokes about trannies.

I'd honestly be surprised if anything came of this. That dude seems a bit obsessed...I don't like her one bit, but Christ man, get a hobby...

I am not fond of Coulter, but let's wait until after the investigation to trash her, at least about this.

I'm neither self-righteous nor above anything, I'm squarely and firmly right smack in the second group I talked about there. I'm also not blind to human nature and can recognize a brewing donnybrook when I see one. You don't like the tune, blame the musician, not the guy who recognizes it.

Heinleinites looking too deep into it, Coulter is just getting what she seeks professionally, public mockery. I don't see what's so bad about that. Supply, demand.

I'll wait to see how this turns out. Then I'll engage in schadenfreude.

Is it really that big a deal if she voted in the wrong state? Invalidate her vote and move on with your lives.

I happen to the think the skeleton tranny is the result of the devil fornicating with the dried out carcass of the Fuhrer, but unless you can show me proof she was trying to get Bush elected to a third term somehow, I really couldn't care.

Oooooh, can I do that one?

"Really, I see no need to concern myself with the irrelevant legal troubles of some minor foreign celebrity with whom I engage little, if ever. This sort of trivial nonsense is beneath me."

How was that? Did I strike the right tone, or did that last sentence go a little too far?

Is it really that big a deal if she voted in the wrong state?

I was wondering if it was result of her being registered originally as a him (or him as a her). Or perhaps the more complex question of whether members of the Equine community can vote.....

Its because she wouldn't let him suck her penis.

I am a decidedly unfan of both of the the ever so verbose Ariana Huffington and Mann Coulter.

Whoa, there are people who like her? I thought everyone just sort of tolerated her, like the retarded anorexic cousin at the family reunion.

This thread is pathetic. So she might have broken voting regulations. We don't like her since she produces a lot of poorly sourced crazy drivel. Any serious discussion and criticism of either the alleged crime or her work?

No, instead the entire thread right from the OP is devoted to insulting her appearence. If (which I very very much doubt) she used to be a man, I fail to see what possible relevance this has on her guilt/non-guilt in this case or upon the quality of her work. Did someone drop a laptop into your playpens? Grow the fuck up.

I was making fun of the creepy stalker guy...

I want to know why she was voting in the first place, isn't she against women voting?

Okay, how about this, since I didn't make fun of her looks: I'm enjoying the fact that she's suffering and hope she gets jailed even if she's innocent. Because she's Ann Coulter, not because of her looks.

Regarding the fact that you yourself underwent an operation, if memory serves: :fluffle:

Whatever floats your boat, best of luck with the post-op stage. ;)

She's against LIBERALS voting, really.

So long as there's a fund set up to allow you to get a state ID for free, no problem. I have to show ID to vote.

A brewing row/fight. From Donnybrook Horse fair, where formerly Irish people used meet, to buy and sell horses, drink, and bate seven shades of shite out of one another. Now one of the most affluent suburbs of the capital.

bullshit

no one here likes her.

This is what Georgia requires and it's survived at least one court challenge...
Any valid state or federal government issued photo ID, including a FREE Voter ID Card issued by your county registrar's office or the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS)
A Georgia Driver's License, even if expired
Valid employee photo ID from any branch, department, agency, or entity of the U.S. Government, Georgia, or any county, municipality, board, authority or other entity of this state
Valid U.S. passport ID
Valid U.S. military photo ID
Valid tribal photo ID

Pretty damned liberal, meaning generous or ample, if you ask me.

This post falls squarely in the "self righteous back patting by people pretending to be 'above the fray'" category. :D

And here I put this up just to take pot shots at Ann Coulter's misfortune. I think it is funny that someone championing "the right" engages in voter shenanigans....then again Rush had operation chaos...so I guess this sort of thing is the norm...anyone's dead uncle vote for shrubya?

Good to see the Coultergeist under investigation.

Yes, people who like Coulter are the sensible ones...

Rush also is addicted to oxycotton and is fond of underage Carribean prostitutes.

^This.

Ann Coulter has so many failings and so many horrible qualities, yet people continue to go after her physical appearance. Fuck all of you for that, especially the supposedly liberal dudes out there who enjoy making tranny jokes about her. When you do that shit you are every bit as bad as the he-man woman-hating conservatives. Grow the fuck up indeed.

Personally I see no more difference in calling her "mannish" than I do comparing bush to a chimp.

Those of us who simply wish to see her life in shambles to the point of suicide mentioning nothing about her appearance are fine, though, right?

It's arguable that Bush did more chimpish things than she did mannish things.

Yep, I created words.

Personally I see no more difference in calling her "mannish" than I do comparing bush to a chimp.
You should.

Seriously.

Here's a parallel to think about:

Some folks have compared Obama to a monkey. They insisted it's not racist to do that because hey, people compared Bush to a chimp, right?

Context is everything. There is a long and repulsive history of comparing black men and women to monkeys and apes. This is entrenched racism in a way that comparing a white man to a chimp simply is not.

Likewise, attacking a woman by going after her physical appearance is pretty much the oldest and most pathetic form of sexism around. It's one of the most disgraceful continuing traditions in our political discourse.

Mocking Coulter for being "mannish" is no different than mocking Obama for being a monkey. I don't believe for one instant that you are unable to grasp the cultural context in either case, I just think you're choosing to ignore it when you think it's warranted.

I just find it hilarious that someone who regularly decries "Liberals" as traitors to the country possibly can't abide by the rules and regulations established by the nation she supposedly champions and loves. It's another stark example of right wing hypocrisy.

And I'm quite willing to bet that at least half of the people screaming in defense of Coulter would be the exact same people dancing in the streets passing out candy if something this bad or worse were to happen to either Keith Olbermann or Al Franken.

Those of us who simply wish to see her life in shambles to the point of suicide mentioning nothing about her appearance are fine, though, right?
If you want to attack Coulter and wish her a horrible death by spider bites, have at it.

If you want to slur Coulter in a manner that makes life worse for women everywhere, including women (like me) who fucking hate everything Coulter stands for, then kindly refrain. Have a nice glass of scotch instead. Maybe listen to a record, or go for a walk, or visit a local museam. Just do anything else with your time, anything to take your mind off your urge to make life shittier for women, because really...we don't need your help with that. :P

*pats self on pack*
"So I am flexible enough to do it!"

Who cares?

I won't say "only liberals do it" but since nobody gives a damn when Democrats do it, why bother her?

well, I think perhaps you assume a bit too much of the motives here. Call me an equal opportunity offender. I don't even find, necessarily, a "Obama looks like a monkey" comment particularly verboten either, as long as there's some context behind it that's not OBVIOUSLY racist (unlike the example we saw here).

In short, I don't necessarily agree that every comment or joke about a woman's looks is, necessarily sexism. I'm sure some intend it that way, but frankly, the way people look can be funny sometimes.

Because no-one's ever gotten a fake ID?

Plus, Ann Coulter's a Connecticut native, she probably has a CT ID of some sort.

She was probably able to register fraudulently because of ACORN!/election-flashback

edit: Dang, Neo beat me to it.

Rush also is addicted to oxycotton and is fond of underage Carribean prostitutes.

"Oxycotton?" The three second Googling of OxyContin would have been too much effort? Meh, it doesn't matter, just reading your post and trying to figure out what kind of drug-trip clothes could be woven from "oxycotton" made my morning. Thanks.

Right, and exactly how many people do you think would go to the trouble to get a fake ID to vote, when voter turnout is as low as it is?

So what's your point? Don't ever check for voter eligibility because it might be falsified?

No, my point is that adding an ID requirement doesn't do much to dissuade the determined fraudulent voter while at the same time adding an extra hoop that the legitimate voter must jump through. The non-ID-based systems of verification are, in practice, just as effective at combating voter fraud.

The best way to commit systematic, effective voter fraud is to pay off the election judges, and an ID requirement won't stop that from happening.

Only thing on fraud I remember was when she told voters to tie up the fraud hotlines back in 2006.

A little late to bring that up.

Pretty much why I'm laughing at this. She screamed for her fanbase to pounce on the slightest pretense of voter fraud in the 2006 elections to help keep the Republicans in power, and yet here she might have possibly committed voter fraud herself.

More Right Wing Hypocrisy.

It's like listening to a sermon on the evils of homosexuality from Mark Foley and Larry Craig.

About as common as the Tasmanian Tiger. On a related note, I'm selling this extremely expensive rock that will keep determined fraudulent voters away.

I think the current open-declaration-plus-signature-check stops the one-time fraudulent voter just fine.

To catch the crooked judges, I'd assign them to teams and precincts randomly and at the last minute -- say, 4 AM on election day -- so you couldn't count on a crooked team being at any one precinct. And I'd copy the Afghanis and Iraqis and have people ink their fingers after voting so you couldn't truck around a busload of fraudsters to different precincts.

I think the current open-declaration-plus-signature-check stops the one-time fraudulent voter just fine.

I don't see how that's effective. In effect, a voter is still just saying, "I promise I am who I say I am".

We have to make sure it's an appendage that they won't cut off. Hmm....

Voter fraud is not a big issue. Its another one of those issues that has been blown out of proportion by the losers.

Voting is the most sacred right in our country, and adding hoops that voters have to jump through would only decrease our already laughable voting rate. I am willing to deal with a few instances of voter fraud for ease of voting for the rest of us honest civilians.

Voter fraud? Why bother... Its a lot easier and more legal simply to pay off all the congressmen to do what you want anyway. Oh wait thats called lobbyists...

Well, with the signature check, Mr. Fraudulent Voter not only has to tell the election judge (and anyone within earshot) that he's, say, you, he has to forge your signature. Maybe the judge will slip and let him see the judge's copy of the signature upside down across the table, but even if he can see it, he'd have to be unusually talented to copy it.

It's not entirely cheatproof: if he somehow got a copy of your signature beforehand, he could practice it. But he could also have a fake ID made. Either way, he has to go to some effort to steal 1 lousy vote. I happen to think that it's extremely unlikely that enough people would go to this effort to make a difference.

You know, lobbyists have a bad rap, but they perform a vital function in our democracy.

Rerouting cash to business?

^This.

Ann Coulter has so many failings and so many horrible qualities, yet people continue to go after her physical appearance.

I'd put her on the same level, appearance wise, as the current pope. The sort of face you'd use to scare kids with.

That aside, what's she doing voting to begin with? She's gone on record wanting women not to vote at all. Shouldn't she set an example and not vote? Sometimes I wonder why the hell she's still making money, and then I realize that doublethink is moneymaking level popular everywhere, especially when you get to support being and be a hypocritical ass, and it just depresses.

Oh sweet justice.

I hope they lock her up in jail forever. Or better yet if the aliens abducted her. :)

Now that I think about it a little more, it was probably just an honest mistake. I mean people live so many places, how is one supposed to remember where to vote? Just like taxes, how can one be expected to remember all those arcane things like Medicare and SSI that need to be paid?

But the burning question that we really need answered is what to do about A-rod?

This is just another Ann Coulter "stunt" to get attention.

Also, when that section "see complaint" is opened, one gets about 25 internet explorer boxes. . . .

There is something is wrong with that site (to say the least).

I'd like to see that incorigible bitch go away for awhile, if only to spare the world from her obnoxious existence. And yes, I believe she is secretly, or at least has at one point been, a man. *vote*

Dennis Miller, I believe it was, has claimed to have had sex with her. I guess thats how he lost his penis, since everyone knows Ann Coulter's vagina has teeth. *nod*

Coulter is the poster child for stupidity on the right. Much like Obama (Soetero) on the left.

Obvious troll is obvious.
