Video: Bill Maher vs. Ann Coulter
Coulter mockingly asked where all the racists are that liberals keep talking about. Maher brought up a 2008 poll finding in one swing state that a surprising number of Americans are not ready for a black president, and asked Coulter how she could possibly believe that racism is mostly gone. She pointed to polls that found many Americans are not ready for a Mormon president either.
Maher also challenged Coulter’s belief that Obama is the “most liberal” politician to run on a major party ticket for the presidency. Coulter pointed to the Affordable Care Act, which she deemed the “most liberal thing that has been done by any president,” even including Social Security. But back on the racism front, Coulter charged that “liberals are very racist,” citing attacks from the left on Clarence Thomas, Mia Love, and Stacey Dash.

I didn’t want to click through because Coulter has professed her former relationship with Maher.

They deserve each other. *spits*
One’s ugly as sin on the inside, the other is ugly inside AND outside.

Nine minute segment. Mildly entertaining and worth watching. Maher is fair with her.
Coulter’s “problem” is that she mixes humorous remarks and serious remarks in a way that leaves you guessing, sometimes, whether she is joking or not.

Ah, clear evidence of racism in liberal minds – how people answer poll questions.
Brilliant. Isn’t that right there evidence that REAL racism is dead ? You can’t come up with a better example than the answer to a poll question ?

Well he was pretty nice to her.
I can see why.
She looked great and his pants were puffy in the front.

Bah, she’s gangly and skinny, and not one of the better conservatives.

The alternate universe version of Dudley Moore and Susan Anton. Except this Dudley has a club-brain and not a club-foot.

Surely you know that anyone who would answer a poll that way would in a heartbeat lynch a black man for looking at a white woman.
Odysseus on October 14, 2012 at 6:46 AM
I have not thought about Susan Anton in years.

That was the most tame I’ve ever seen Maher with a polar opposite.
Christie & Coulter rule the room.

Real racism is very alive and well. Ann is making a very liberal assumption and you are joining her. You’re both unintentionally accepting the liberal premise that racism means “Whites
hating(doing anything that) Blacks (don’t like).”Pattosensei on October 14, 2012 at 9:24 AM
A courser version of Mary Matalin and James Carville. Meh.

My brother married a black women and her family (primarily the men) hated him before they ever met because he was “a cracker and white boys have no business marrying sisters.”

well that was entertaining but that’s about it
