Does Ann Coulter use drugs?

[ck4829]

Ann Coulter seemed high on something last night as she fumbled her way through an interview that was supposed to make her look like a free speech heroine martyred by liberal college students. Sure, she threw in some of her customary invective, including an incomprehensible accusation about students' "sexual fantasies." But the segment contained vague and perfunctory responses, along with a few embarrassingly long pauses. You know something has to be wrong with her if Sean Hannity has to keep pressing her to talk about what's wrong with liberals. But that's exactly what happened.

Sean Hannity introduced the discussion by explaining that Coulter had just finished a speech at the University of Connecticut that came under "intense scrutiny." In a dismissive tone, he said that some students complained her speaking fee was too high (but added "even though it was half priced") and that others "feared that she would only bring quote unquote hate speech to the university. Now, this isn't the first time that Ann has faced critics at the nation's colleges and universities... So are these institutions really advocating free speech and the free and open exchange of ideas or are they increasingly turning their backs on conservatives and free thought?"

Hannity and "fair and balanced" FOX News know full well that Coulter's outrageous proclamations, often advocating violence toward those with whom she disagrees, are no run-of-the-mill conservative "thought," as she was portrayed in that introduction. No examples of the kinds of things she says (expressing remorse that Timothy McVeigh didn't blow up the New York Times, e.g.) were provided to the audience nor was there any other guest to explain why so many students didn't want her at UConn.

In short, it was a dream set-up for Coulter. But she quickly turned it into a viewing nightmare. In response to Hannity's opening question about how it went, Coulter answered in an annoyed tone, "the usual screaming banshees."

In fact, Coulter had to cut her speech short because of heckling. But when Hannity asked her if "anything happened tonight, was there any incident?" she paused for a long time, then said, with somewhat slurred words, "Weren't your, weren't your cameramen there?" Then she laughed a little at her own wit before adding, "It was the same as all college campuses." Another pause. "Screaming banshees, sexual fantasies from impotent nosepickers among the liberal males - uh, you know, the usual."

1. Testosterone overdose.

Redstone

[formercia]

39. It is said that the Colon is a good absorber of drugs

The Mob has used the OD suppository to kill people. I guess it would work for other biologically active compounds as well. :evilgrin:

[KingFlorez]

2. Seems like she does

That sounds like the behavior of a drug addict

[treestar]

3. There are people who pay her to speak?

These people are on drugs too!

[lpbk2713]

26. That's why she's such a pain in the ass.

She knows if she (I'm being generous here by saying she) is not controversial that she will soon fade away and the sheepies will not pay for her appearances. It's all an act. The best thing we could do would be to ignore her.

[Mandate My Ass]

4. I dunno. But she sure uses projection

she says college students are banshees, 9/11 widows are harpies....there are no better descriptions of Coulter than the ones she applies to others.

[SmokingJacket]

5. I don't know her personally, of course, but she's being driven by

some bizarre, relentless, hateful motor. Normal people have a conscience, get tired, have self-doubt, have a little body fat, smile in a humane way once in a while... I think she's either on drugs or is a kind of human I've never really come across in real life before.

[Mandate My Ass]

8. best description of her I've ever seen

:thumbsup:

[Sal Minella]

19. I think your assessment as "human" may be too generous.....

[tridim]

6. I'd put my money on Oxycontin

She's a Limpball level junkie.

[partylessinOhio]

7. I feel the best thing we can do is ignore Coulter. I don't watch any

program when she appears. She has many problems but they are hers not mine.

[Rosemary2205]

9. Wait - she thinks young liberal males are hot for her?

Has she looked in a mirror lately?

[myomy]

10. Too bad Ronnie Raygun closed all

those mental institutions..

[Warpy]

11. She is not used to criticism from her own side

and this latest pile of literary vomit has offended even hard core haters.

Like most of them, she thought she was untouchable and that she'd be able to continue her bullying with only token disapproval from people she already despises.

Woops.

[Faygo Kid]

12. I think I recognize familiar signs of abuse, and it's not drugs.

I have thought for some time that she may have an alcohol problem. If so, I will do for her what she would not do for any of us, and that's wish her well. For the most part only, of course.

[shain from kane]

13. Copy tomcat. n/t

[StClone]

14. Has Norah O'Donnell Grilled Coulter as rigorously as Cindy?

Just asking?

[longship]

15. Naw!! Only a little pot and...

some heroine once in a while, crack cocaine at occasional social gatherings, and LSD anytime she's scheduled to appear on television. Otherwise, she just drinks Jack Daniels.

[peace frog]

16. It's abundantly she's on the pipe

as evident in her bizarre, rambling, incoherent statements.

18. Yes, but they are prescribed in Rush's name to protect her anonymity

Otherwise, if she's not on drugs she should be.

If you mean illegal drugs then there's two possibilities. She either took too many in her past or she's taking too many right now.

[chelsea0011]

20. "Conservative thought"? She has advocated nuking the Muslim world

and converting the rest to Christians. This is any normal sense will get you banned from any shows or media outlets, period.

[Lefty48197]

21. Do they have a pill that fills you with hate?

.

[lpbk2713]

22. Photo from the Hannity/Coultergeist interview ----->

She is Cornholio

[AndreaCG]

23. LOTS of diet pills

[Ksec]

24. She does look like a crack whore

or maybe a crank addict. Shes bone skinny to the point of looking much like an addict. I would bet she would scare a person in real life, without the pancake batter they smear on her when shes on Fox.

[titoresque]

25. She's Bulimic n/t

[C_U_L8R]

27. No...she's just dopey

[Mr_Spock]

28. She's obsessive to the point that she can barely function

Perhaps she's wearing out.

[Tesla]

29. I seriously don't know how she lives with herself

how can you just hate everyone and like yourself?

[Mr_Spock]

32. If you're a sociopath but considered "attractive", then you can get away

with it.

I'm sure I'll get the perfunctory "ewww, she's attractive?" reply, but you know what I mean.

[formercia]

30. The reconstructive surgeon

pulled the stitches too tight.

[Fly by night]

31. Do crack whores use crack? nt

[undeterred]

33. Cocaine.

That's just a guess, but her behavior and her body type suggest it to me.

[Swamp Rat]

34. No, but she drinks human baby blood.

[Warren DeMontague]

35. I vote meth. And it's reducing her to incoherent, blathering paranoia

just like it did to her idol, Adolph.

[splat@14]

36. Don't know. But anyone that has to be around her should...n/t

[mitchum]

37. He's a meth tweaker

[struggle4progress]

38. I think she's a sick woman: the shrill invective is just a symptom,

and the hateful spewing merely masks whatever the real problem is, without addressing it. When the delicious attention stops, I expect the deterioration will become more apparent ...

[Marr]

40. I agree with you- there's something wrong with her.

I used to think she was just an attention whore, saying whatever she needed to say to get attention and sell books. I still think that's a part of it, but it's something more than that. She's got some kind of problem, and I, too think it'll come out into the open after her career evaporates.

Bill O'Reilly's the same way. I really expect that guy to jump out a window or something when his career is over.

41. David Brock said in his book

Blinded by the Right that when he was friends with Coulter (back when he was still a Republican), she appeared to live on chardonnay and cigarettes.

She also has the look of someone who has done too much cocaine for too many years.

[B Calm]

42. She has to be taking amphetamines
