Ann Coulter on The View
1 comments
I hate to bombard you all with videos from The View, but I just had to post Ann Coulter's appearance on the show. She does get a little attacked by the five women, but notice the below-the-belt jabs Coulter dishes out herself. Normally I'm able to find at least some good in every person, but I don't have an ounce of respect for this woman. All she does is judge, judge, judge, without offering any type of compassion or solution to the "problems" she identifies. She is not intelligent - she merely regurgitates flimsy "evidence" that supports her outrageous ideas. I can't believe she has gotten so famous on this alone.

This absolutely enraged me.
I'd like people who manage to make it on tv to have intelligent discussion about problems that is actually conducive to helping solve them. Otherwise it's just talking and you could sit at home to do that.
This whole argument she has makes it seem as though these women who have ended up as single mothers chose to be that way. And then we're the ones blamed for not being able to keep men, as though it's somehow in our ability to change a man's mind. Why has she also chosen not to blast single fathers in her tirade? 'Cause I'm getting the feeling here that women are also being told that they don't know how to raise children.
Does she expect single mothers to either stop raising their children or find a man to marry, which can pose an emotional and sometimes physical threat to the child involved? She doesn't understand why they are praised for what they do when the fact that they are praised shows that being responsible and doing what you have to do is so uncommon that we have to applaud it today. And the double standard on that is also unfair- a single father will be praised far more than a single mother ever would be for doing what he should be doing. The last thing I'm going to say is that Ann Coulter seriously needs to get statistics that are worth discussing and draw conclusions that aren't laughable. She is supposed to be educated.
