Ann Coulter: All Presidential Assassins Were Liberals

advertisement

Ann Coulter is one crazy woman. She acts the part of a logical Conservative, but in reality she is a bus ride away from the insane asylum. Today on the Joy Behar show Coulter declared that every presidential assassin is a Liberal. This is simply an attempt to label anyone that would try and take out President Obama as a Left-Wing lunatic. That is the name of her game, make ridiculous claims and hope they stick.

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Ok, first of all I'm pretty sure that's simply not true but let's assume, for a moment, that it is. What Coulter is talking about are successful Presidential assassins. Hell, they locked up a couple of jackholes who were driving to Denver to put a round into Obama and they were, if memory serves, Meth-addled neo-con nutcases to a man.

So even if Coulter isn't completely off her rocker all she's really proved is that, despite their loud shouts to the contrary, Conservatives can't even decrease the size of Government with a rifle.

I can't say that Coulter is stupid and uneducated. Given that, she can't possibly believe her most outrageous claims. It would stand to reason, then, that she is a highly paid shill who makes big bucks appealing to a specific audience of voters.

I haven't seen much of her on the tube so I don't know if she has ever had a coherentand thoughful conversation about anything. All I hear are sound bite rants without substance.

She makes a Rush Limbaugh mega bucks living keeping people she wouldn't give a drink of cold water to in a state of constant frenzy.

OK...so let's dissect this:

Abraham Lincoln's Assassin: John Wilkes Booth (Right-wing "Know Nothing Party" member - Anti-abolitionist, pro-secessionist)

James A. Garfield's Assassin: Charles Julius Guiteau - Member of the Republican Party. Speechwriter for Garfield.

William McKinley's Assassin: Leon Czolgosz - Anarchist

John F. Kennedy's Assassin: Lee Harvey Oswald - Communist?

Attempted Assassinations:

Andrew Jackson: By Richard Lawrence - A nut job. No really, he was a nut job.

Teddy Roosevelt: by John Flammang Schrank - Another nut job who thought Wm. McKinley's ghost told him to assassinate T.R.

F.D.R.: By Giuseppe Zangara . May not have been an attempt on FDR. Mayor Cermak (of Chicago) was killed, and may have been intended target because of anti-Mob work.

Harry Truman: By Oscar Collazo and Griselio Torresola. Puerto Rican Nationalists (Right-wingers again)

There are even more, but let's go with a couple other notable ones:

George H.W. Bush: Saddam Hussein....I seriously doubt he was a left-winger.

Bill Clinton: #1) Frank Eugene Corder - Suicide by Plane Crash Stunt. #2) Francisco Martin Duran - admitted Tin-Hatter (alien conspiracy to rule world) who said he was incited by ultraconservative talk-show host Chuck Baker.

Let's not even go into Reagan and Ford's nut-jobs.

Seriously...ALL of them were liberals?!?

Of course they were. Because they were bad and Liberal = bad.

She thinks, just because John Wilkes Booth was an actor, that he had to be a liberal. What an intellectually lazy argument. Oh, I forgot that we where talking about that snake with blond hair. She is so skinny, that if she eats a meatball, everyone will think she was 9 months pregnant, LOL.
