Ann Coulter calls children of divorce who were raised by their moms "Future Strippers"

Coulter calls children whose parents divorce "future strippers" in a chapter titled "Victim of a Crime? Thank a Single Mother":

In any event, divorced mothers should be called "divorced mothers," not "single mothers." We also have a term for the youngsters involved: "the children of divorce," or as I call them, "future strippers." It is a mark of how attractive it is to be a phony victim that divorcées will often claim to belong to the more disreputable category of "single mothers." (from page 36 of her new trash coming out this week).

Oh - she'll be on NBC Today show on January 6th to promote this book.

BTW I call women who sell themselves to promote the right wing cause WHORES becuse they're happy to sell their soul for the cheap. At least with strippers - they show the product but don't have to put out to their clients.

[flakey_foont]

1. from the expert on parenting, of course

I forgot, how many kids does she have?

[Why Syzygy]

2. And what's her excuse for being a pathetic human being. nt

[Uben]

3. Unlike republican female pundits.....

....who are called lying sluts!

[muriel_volestrangler]

4. I can think of no greater tragedy than for a parent to see their child grow up to be

Ann Coulter.

[aquart]

5. Spinster Coulter is still barren.

And without the heart or the guts to be a single mother of any kind.

[gravity]

6. And is anyone surprised by this?

[Jamastiene]

7. DAMMIT!

Cheap wires...didn't hold.

*sigh*
:eyes:

Back to the drawing board.

[gollygee]

8. Or we could call them "Future Presidents"

as our president-elect is a child of a divorced mother. He's done OK.

[liberalmuse]

9. And future PRESIDENTS.

Why do publications still insist on printing the diarrhea that spurts out of her mouth?

Oops! A little too slow. Didn't mean to dupe.

[pl259]

10. Well I would pay good money for Ann to

keep her clothes on.
:scared:

[EOTE]

51. Not me.

I find the image of an unclothed Ann Coulter to be a fine substitute for ipecac.

[Bluzmann57]

11. Why does anyone give a rats ass what she thinks?

She is irrelevant. It would be nice if networks just wouldn't give her any pub at all though.

[Javaman]

12. man, she's really reaching for the insane button often to promote her new door stop, isn't she? nt

[lpbk2713]

13. Coultergeist is pandering for attention again.

Ignore it and it will fade back into its rightful place in obscurity again.

[Arkansas Granny]

17. Yep. She makes these outrageous remarks because she craves the

attention she gets. Like a spoiled two year old throwing a tantrum, she doesn't care if it's good attention or bad attention, as long as it's focused on her.

[Vickers]

14. She's a professional shit-stirrer.

I think stripping is more honorable.

[Hekate]

63. I have to agree with you there. Almost any occupation would be more honorable than hers. nt

[cap]

15. a lot of conservative fundamentalists are white single moms

I wonder how they will like Ann's choice of terminology. You know, that does apply to Bristol Palin as well.

[a la izquierda]

16. What. Ever.

I am a "divorced" kid, raised by..gasp a single, GAY mother.

I'm finishing a PhD in history. Coulter can kiss my successful ass.

[Submariner]

18. Was Coulter raped or beaten by a family member? An incest victim?

How else does one explain such vermin from slime like her. She must have been a severely abused child.

[TrogL]

24. She's an authoritarian

...and makes her living (like Rush) by entertaining other authoritarians by making outrageous statements to give them a cheap thrill.

[Ishoutandscream2]

19. From a child of a single mother, all I've got to say

is "Fuck You, Coulter." You are truly the scum of the earth. Where is a shoe thrower when we really need him?

[knitter4democracy]

27. I was just thinking the exact same thing.

My "divorced mother" was the parent who loved me and helped me become the mother I am today. My STBX cheating on me and leaving me and our kids isn't anything I have any control over (other than making sure I get the best deal for us that I can). How dare she say my kids would be future strippers? I'm not.

[SmileyRose]

20. I gather they took the wires off her jaw -- pity.

[LeftishBrit]

21. I hope this actually damages her popularity

Most of her attacks are on minority groups, or at least on people unlikely to be much represented among her readers; but I would guess that a significant number of her readers are divorced, and they may not much care for having their kids insulted.

[CTyankee]

38. Exactly. And this is why the Repubs lost so BADLY in two successive elections.

I say, keep it up Ann. You are further digging the grave of your Repuke Party, long may it remain dead, buried and rotting in the ground.

The more the likes of Ann Coulter rants on, the worse they look...

[Marrah_G]

22. Who cares what a greedy bitter self-hating woman like her thinks?

I certainly don't.

[MrsBrady]

23. as the child of a divorced mother

my husband just told me that I needed to go out and live up to my
Ann Coulter potential
and go get a job at the local strip club.

I mean, so I guess my graduating National Honor's Society in High School is irrelevant?
or how about my stint at a major music college?
or how about my working as a touring musician?
or how about my stint in corporate America as a recruiter when I got tired of living on a musicians salary?
or how about now, when I've gone back to that same major Music college to finish my degree...and working on learning fluent Spanish?
I guess I'm just wasting my time?

All those years of music lessons my mom paid for was just a waste of time, all that money she spent.
Damn. All those hours I wasted practicing and studying. And all this time I should have been stripping?
Well, why didn't anybody tell me? I've wasted so much time.

Let's see if I can find a stripper outfit in my size. Gotta get to work now.

[EconomicLiberal]

25. Why the hell does she get a platform to promote her hate on The Today Show?

The LIBRUL MEDIA my ass.

[azmouse]

26. Her 15 minutes are long over.

She pathetic and disgusting.

[Saturday]

28. What does she call the children of unwed mothers? ie: Trip? nt

[Soylent Brice]

29. and all we have to do is sit and wait for her to have a child and

a failed marriage.

and then recite that little nugget back to her.

when someone says shit this ridiculous one has to begin questioning whether they themselves believe what they say.

46. !

:spray:

yeah, skeletor isn't exactly a prime candidate.

[Political_Junkie]

30. I'm 43 years old,

at what age would I stop being considered a "future stripper"? :crazy:

[Lorien]

40. Me too, HA!

I wonder what her solution is? Abortions? Forcing men who leave their families to go back to them? My mother didn't have a choice; dad left her for a hotter model. So what is spinster Colter's solution for that?

[MineralMan]

31. What a [expletive deleted] Coulter is!

Now she's jealous of strippers. That's understandable, since she couldn't earn a dime at that job. A diet of gin and Fritos™ just doesn't get it.

Now, if they were casting a concentration camp movie, I'm sure Ann would get a part, but I don't know of anyone making such a film.

[Orsino]

32. Because they're too well-bred...

...to become fake right-wing rage-porn sex teases.

Strippers offer value for money.

[SidneyCarton]

33. Some day Ms. Coulter will finally choke on the bile she spews from her diseased mouth.

When they do the autopsy, they will find nothing inside but a blackened ruin. That woman is hollow on the inside, her hatred has rotted away any substance that might have existed within her.

[OwnedByFerrets]

34. This piece of shit spends most of her time thinking of the most

disgusting abhorrent things to say....just so people will talk about her. Obviously, it works.

[qazplm]

35. wow let's see

put my way through college? Check (sans stripping)
served 11 years and counting on active duty? Check (did strip for the physical)
became an officer? Check (no stripping involved)
got my law degree? Check (again strip-free)
Working on murder, rape and other cases? Check (some of the participants may have stripped during alleged offenses)

Funny, I'm the product of a divorced (and alcoholic) mom, and yet, somehow, someway, I avoided stripping.

Not that I ever had the body for it, and being a man probably doesn't help either, but still...

[LynneSin]

41. Your mom probably stripped you when she changed your diaper

so well guess you did end up stripping.

And like others have said - Barack Obama is also a child of a single-divorced mom. Nuff said!

[Mrs. Overall]

36. I was raised by my mother after a divorce and she worked her ass off

to support my brother and me singlehandedly.

I became a teacher (the first person in my family to graduate from college).

Excuse the language, but Coulter is a *ucking *itch.

[Fleshdancer]

37. I'm so glad she's not a parent

Could you imagine how horrific it would be to have Coulter as your mom? Little boys would be screamed at for not being "manly" enough and little girls...will little girls just wouldn't be valued at all.

The faux psychologist in me weeps for HER childhood...her catty need to hate other women is insane. I look at her and think her parents didn't want a daughter and she was smart enough to understand.

[LynneSin]

45. At 48 years old her chances of being one are pretty slim - thank goodness!

Although I know women could have kids at that age her eggs are pretty much past their expiration date and for the good of the planet earth her spawn will not spew into future generations.

[Hekate]

65. She's 48? How much longer can she get away with the girly act, flinging her bottle-blond tresses...

... about and waving her manicured talons? At some point it all becomes self-parody. Really bad self-parody.

Hekate

[Iggo]

42. The death throes of her career.

The woman is rapidly becoming irrelevant.

[sakabatou]

43. Just ignore the screeching hag

[crazylikafox]

44. I don't think my Harvard Phd son will appreciate being called a stripper.

Bitch

[eagertolearn]

47. Add up both parents divorces and I have 5 above me. Put myself through

college (MS degree) and currently have 3 wonderful very liberal kids (and a recently converted liberal husband) who will actually go out into the world with a brain unlike Ann Coulter. What is it with these conservative plastic women without a brain? Is that the way the GOP's like them? I did work in resturants to put myself through school but never tried stripping (probably would of had to work less) because my liberal values wouldn't have taken me that way!

[hamsterjill]

48. I am one

Now, I thought I was angered by Coulter when she made the comments about the 09/11 widows. I thought that was about as low as any person could stoop.

But surprise, surprise!!! Coulter belches out something yet again.

I AM one of those women who raised a daughter absent her father. Her father and I were married young, we had her, he couldn't handle the responsibility and split.

I worked my ass off and gave up a lot to be able to raise my daughter in the way that I felt I wanted and needed to do. She has turned out to be a fabulous young woman that any parent would be proud of. She's educated, has a good job, and certainly has the sense NOT to spend her hard owned money on some stupid book written by the likes of Ann Coulter.

I highly resent this Ann-Coulter-bitch's comments.

Coulter is now so very desperate for attention that she will spew any vile comment that pops into her head. And there is plenty of room in that head of hers because there are no brains taking up any space.

I will continue my tradition of turning the channel anytime I see this creature appear on my television screen.

[Contrary1]

49. Actually, I don't have a problem with with women/men who strip...

Many have put themselves through college earning money that way. And, if someone chooses taking their clothes off as a career, so what? Would Coulter prefer they sit home and exist on welfare checks so she could bitch about that?

She's just jealous that no one would pay to see her naked.

[lolly]

62. I second that

Strippers provide a wanted service; they work for their money.

What does this woman do for her living? I'm assuming her parents stayed married, but they couldn't manage to raise a decent human being.

[AspenRose]

50. I assume both of her parents stayed together; look how well SHE turned out

[eagertolearn]

61. The fake happy really screws up people and this is probably what she knows! n/a

[lpbk2713]

52. Was Coultergeist a test tube baby?

I just can't see where anyone would want to claim this thing as their own offspring.

[Darth_Kitten]

53. Call children of 2 parent families: Hitler, Stalin, etc, etc, etc.........

:silly:

Children of single mothers at least respect their Moms :)

[Starry Messenger]

54. O really! Well, it's a bit late for me to get started on that. Too bad.

It's a honest profession, unlike lying for money.

Well, Coulter may have created a few more Democratic women today. When Dan Qualye shot his mouth off about Murphy Brown back in the day, my mother changed her party affiliation permanently. My repub dad left her with two kids to raise by herself.

[KamaAina]

55. She does realize I come from a "broken home", right?

(one of Mom's least favorite phrases, along with "out of wedlock"; we tend to pronounce both in phony stentorian, James Earl Jones-type voices).

So when's the next NYC DU meetup? I haven't seen Mom in a while... :evilgrin:

edit: phony

[Gwendolyn]

56. What's wrong with being a stripper? n/t

[Kber]

57. Really?

Cause some of us call the children of single mom's "Mr. President Elect".

[Occam Bandage]

58. Well, guess I better start working out again. I'm a bit on the thin side to be a good stripper.

[treestar]

59. So let me see if I have this right

If there were no divorces, there would be no strippers.

And Annthrax might own more than one type of dress.

[KakistocracyHater]

60. Jesus was raised by his mother, his dad was absent

as for his stepdad, he wasn't mentioned much. Strippers often have been raped by stepfathers, blood uncles, a neighbor....The ones she's really talking about were called "latchkey kids". She carefully phrases her junk to bypass the mind & activate the reptilian part, all feelings no facts.

[AndrewP]

64. Ann Coulter is one creepy guy
