Ann Coulter – June 25, 2014 – AMERICA’S FAVORITE NATIONAL …

I've held off on writing about soccer for a decade -- or about the length of the average soccer game -- so as not to offend anyone. But enough is enough. Any growing interest in soccer can only be a sign of the nation's moral decay.

(1) Individual achievement is not a big factor in soccer. In a real sport, players fumble passes, throw bricks and drop fly balls -- all in front of a crowd. When baseball players strike out, they're standing alone at the plate. But there's also individual glory in home runs, touchdowns and slam-dunks.

In soccer, the blame is dispersed and almost no one scores anyway. There are no heroes, no losers, no accountability, and no child's fragile self-esteem is bruised. There's a reason perpetually alarmed women are called "soccer moms," not "football moms."

Do they even have MVPs in soccer? Everyone just runs up and down the field and, every once in a while, a ball accidentally goes in. That's when we're supposed to go wild. I'm already asleep.

(2) Liberal moms like soccer because it's a sport in which athletic talent finds so little expression that girls can play with boys. No serious sport is co-ed, even at the kindergarten level.

(3) No other "sport" ends in as many scoreless ties as soccer. This was an actual marquee sign by the freeway in Long Beach, California, about a World Cup game last week: "2nd period, 11 minutes left, score: 0:0." Two hours later, another World Cup game was on the same screen: "1st period, 8 minutes left, score: 0:0." If Michael Jackson had treated his chronic insomnia with a tape of Argentina vs. Brazil instead of Propofol, he'd still be alive, although bored.

Even in football, by which I mean football, there are very few scoreless ties -- and it's a lot harder to score when a half-dozen 300-pound bruisers are trying to crush you.

(4) The prospect of either personal humiliation or major injury is required to count as a sport. Most sports are sublimated warfare. As Lady Thatcher reportedly said after Germany had beaten England in some major soccer game: Don't worry. After all, twice in this century we beat them at their national game.

Baseball and basketball present a constant threat of personal disgrace. In hockey, there are three or four fights a game -- and it's not a stroll on beach to be on ice with a puck flying around at 100 miles per hour. After a football game, ambulances carry off the wounded. After a soccer game, every player gets a ribbon and a juice box.

(5) You can't use your hands in soccer. (Thus eliminating the danger of having to catch a fly ball.) What sets man apart from the lesser beasts, besides a soul, is that we have opposable thumbs. Our hands can hold things. Here's a great idea: Let's create a game where you're not allowed to use them!

Ann Coulter is white supremacists’ new hero: The most …

Ann Coulters latest book, Adios, America! The Lefts Plan to Turn Our Country Into a Third World Hellhole hit the shelves late last month and is currently sitting at the #18 spot on the New York Times best sellers list. Predictably, the radical right has lauded Coulters anti-immigrant screed, with many calling for the GOP to take up Coulters stance on immigration.

On June 16, Coulter did a live webcast hosted by the anti-immigrant groupNumbersUSA. During the show, both Coulter and the NumbersUSA staff encouraged listeners to immerse themselves in the almost 100 pages of endnotes in Coulters book to get further educated on the immigration issue.

Hatewatch staff decided to take Coulter up on her offer. An investigation into the books 89 pages of endnotes reveals that she routinely cites white nationalists, anti-Muslim activists and anti-immigrant groups in her latest screed.

Heres a rundown of the cast of extremist characters Coulter cites:

Jason Richwine Disgraced Former Heritage Foundation Senior Policy Analyst

Jason Richwinecame to prominence during the most recent major push for comprehensive immigration reform in 2013, when he co-authored a report for the Heritage Foundation on the costs of undocumented immigration. Coulter cited the report in her book. After the report was published, a number of immigrant and civil rights organizations discovered his racist ties. For example, he penned articles for the white nationalist blogAlternative Right, founded byRichard Spencer, a leading white nationalist ideologue.

Richwines 2009 doctoral dissertation at Harvard makes the standard white nationalist claim that there are deep differences in intelligence between races, and that there may be a genetic component to those differences, which, he argues, are persistent over time. He wrote that, No one knows whether Hispanics will ever reach IQ parity with whites, but the prediction that new Hispanic immigrants will have low-IQ children and grandchildren is difficult to argue against. What does that mean with regard to immigration into the U.S.? Richwine argues for simply testing the IQ of those who want to immigrate, excluding those with lower scores. Coulter also cites Richwines dissertation in her publication.

That wasnt the first time he has made statements like that. Five years ago,Hatewatch notedthat when Richwine was a fellow at the conservative American Enterprise Institute (AEI) earlier in 2008, he also compared the intelligence of earlier, mainly white settlers favorably to later, mostly Latino ones. The argument that immigrants themselves are no different from the ones that came 100 years ago I think is quite wrong, Richwine said in a discussion at AEI that aired on C-SPAN, and I think that the major difference here is ethnicity or race, if you will. Races differ in all sorts of ways, and probably the most important way is in IQ.

Peder Nstvold Jensen aka Fjordman Norwegian Anti-Muslim Blogger

In chapter 10 of her book, Coulter cites the Fjordman blog, founded by Peter Jensen, a prolific anti-Muslim blogger. The anti-fascist groupHOPE not hatedescribes Jensen as arguably the single most important influence on Anders Breivik. In 2011,Breivikset off a bomb outside government buildings in Oslo, Norway, killing eight and injuring over 200 before he traveled to the island of Utya and murdered 69 more, many of them teens participating in a summer camp organized by the ruling Norwegian Labour Party. Breiviks reasons for committing this horrific act of domestic terrorism: blaming the government for allowing Norway to be invaded by Muslims.

Ann Coulter has fallen from grace and the reason why is …

Ten years ago, Ann Coulter was featured onthe cover of Time magazinewith an article entitled Ms. Right. At the time she was a very big presence in the political media but the article pushed her into the realm of popular culture; thus, she became more than just a political bomb thrower. Shed always had the looks and the confidence, and now she had the imprimatur of the mainstream media. Coulter became a full-fledged star.

The article caused a tremendous stir. After all, Coulter was among the most flamboyant of the newer, edgier breed of right-wing provocateurs. In 2000, she had won the Media Research Center-presented Conservative Journalist of the Year award, and the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute gave her its annual conservative leadership award for her unfailing dedication to truth, freedom and conservative values and for being an exemplar, in word and deed, of what a true leader is. It seemed as if she and her incendiary polemics were everywhere, from daily personal appearances on television, her weekly newspaper columns and a series of books that were extremely popular among right-wingers.

From 1998 to 2005, when the magazine cover appeared, she had published a series of books High Crimes and Misdemeanors: The Case Against Bill Clinton, Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right, Treason: Liberal Treachery from the Cold War to the War on Terrorism, and a collection of her columns, called How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must): The World According to Ann Coulter all of which were very successful. The theme of these books is obvious from the titles. She was famous for her cleverness in hating and baiting liberals. And in those heady days of conservative apotheosis, with sex scandals, stolen elections, terrorist attacks, unnecessary wars and liberalism on the run as never before, Coulter was the most deliciously vicious of all the haters.Among her famous quotes of the era were:

And one of her most memorable (to me at least) was this one:

We need to execute people like John Walker [Lindh] in order to physically intimidate liberals, by making them realize that they can be killed, too. Otherwise, they will turn out to be outright traitors,

Coulter later clarified what she meant;

When I said we should execute John Walker Lindh, I mis-spoke. What I meant to say was We should burn John Walker Lindh alive and televise it on prime-time network TV. My apologies for any misunderstanding that might have occurred.

If that reminds you of certain fundamentalists operating today in the Middle East, you wouldnt be alone.

Slander and Treason were filled with such vitriol. And they were also cited by numerous critics for their many inaccuracies. Coulter, like her talk radio funhouse mirror image, Rush Limbaugh, always slithered away from any such controversies simply by claiming that shes a comedian of sorts. Heres how that Time Magazine article illustrated her comedic talent:

People say that Jon Stewart has blurred the line between news and humor, but his Daily Show airs on a comedy channel. Coulter goes on actual news programs and deploys so much sarcasm and hyperbole that she sounds more like comedian Dennis Miller on one of his rants than Limbaugh. Consider an exchange on Fox News in June 2001 with Peter Fenn, a Democratic strategist. At the time, Barbra Streisand had suggested that Californians practice more conservation, to which Coulter responded:

Ann Coulter vs. reality: The Klan and Stormfront only …

Ann Coulter appeared on The Kelly File last night ostensibly to discuss the uproar over an Associated Press photograph of Ted Cruz at the CrossRoads Shooting Sports store in Johnston, Iowa in which a poster of a large handgun appeared to be aimed directly at his head but all she wanted to talk about is how there arent any racists in America today.

Megyn Kelly began the segment by noting that if that had been Hillary Clinton or President Obama, the left would have been losing their mind over it. Which is no doubt true, even if it ignores the fact that neither Clinton nor Obama would likely find themselves in an Iowa gun store whose walls were festooned with posters of handguns.

As for the APs claim that the photographer didnt notice the barrel of a gun appeared to pointed at the GOP presidential hopefuls head, Coulter said dont insult our intelligence by saying, we didnt even notice, who would have seen something like that?

She explained that liberals are hypersensitive to images like this when they involve the current president because of their fantasies about racist America, the flames [of which] are being fanned by Americas leading hate-group, the Southern Poverty Law Center, which Coulter cant believe still exists because the Klan and Stormfront only have, like, seven members.

(Because its not as if any recent events have proven that white supremacy is still, in fact, an operative ideology large swaths of the country.)

Kelly tacked back to the subject at hand, reminding viewers that Sarah Palin was blamed for the shooting of Gabby Giffords because she used crosshairs on a campaign poster. God forbid anything should happen to Ted Cruz because of this threatening photo, she said. Should everyone be more careful if theyre going to apply that kind of standard to messaging?

But Coulter only had one subject on her mind. Maybe we can back off with the hysteria about America being a racist country every time the sun rises or the wind blows, she said.
