NY Daily News: Ann Coulter Being Investigated for Voting Fraud
By Susie Madrak Monday Feb 09, 2009 5:30am
NOTE: "Ann Coulter's "ideas" and "philosophy" provide all of us with more than enough to talk about on this thread. It is so easy to attack what she is saying, and it is lazy, stupid, and frequently bigoted to use her personal appearance as a basis for attacking her. Anyone who goes the transgender route on this thread will be deleted and possibly banned. You know better. - Sitemonitor
Update: Is your stupid Coulter joke worth being banned from the site forever?

Interesting that they're finally looking into this. From the NY Daily News, via Skippy:
...Following our Jan. 11 column, Connecticut’s Elections Enforcement Commission is making a “thorough investigation” of whether the conservative pundit broke the law by voting in the Nutmeg State while living in New York City, according to a commission spokeswoman.
Officials are responding to a formal complaint filed by Coulterwatch.com blogger Dan Borchers. “For over 10 years, Ann Coulter has gotten away with illegal, immoral and unethical behavior, ranging from plagiarism to defamation, perjury to voter fraud,” claims the conservative Borchers. Coulter declined to comment, but in the past has branded Borchers a stalker. He says the FBI has determined he poses no threat.
....knew she was a fake!

She's a Repignican.
She did before didn't she? I mean didn't she vote in FL and was registered in NY in 2004? Or voted in the wrong district? She was in the news for voter fraud before and got away with it. Here's a link to the 2006 story about her fraud. Basically used a realtor's office as her address so she could vote.
the only time I want to read that is in regard to her de-lousing
Yeah... there's something both funny and deeply, deeply disturbing about that phrase.

I just threw up in my mouth a little.
What is she gaining by illegally plunking a vote down here and there? Her dinky vote is not going to win any elections. And this isn't the first time she's done this.
Maybe she just loves curtained cubicles?
There are local election issues that have far reaching effects.
Wackaloons running for local elections and winning is part of how we ended up in such deep yoghert.
Hope she gets convicted. That wicked old crow has talked about how women shouldn't be able to vote. Ahhh, I love the smell of schadenfreude in the morning!
...she is going to play the "victim" card and sprout all over TV to whine about how she was targeted by the media and liberals. She'll probably publish another book about the entire ordeal.
And when she does...I'm sure the 9/11 wives will be there to point the finger at that hypocrite.
When I first read the story, I was sure that she would find some way to paint this as a "payback" by liberals, even though this has probably been an ongoing investigation for years. As my father used to say, "They broke the mold just before they made her."
Good one from your dad.
*
I think the saying is "They broke the mold AFTER they made her".
But her father's way of saying it makes it funny.
Especially regarding teh Coulter.
[Deleted. Right. 3rd strike on one thread. You're out at least until next Monday. We'll be discussing this further among the team.]

[Deleted. TG bigotry. How progressive and liberal of you. I'm shocked you joined in :( Sitemonitor]
That's a common comment. There are several pictures where I look at her and think that she has a man's eyes.
It's actually rather sad, if true. If she were liberal and trans gender, the worst of the backlash would probably be, "Umm... that's kinda odd...", and then she'd probably end up with a larger fan base.
Among the conservatives, though, they would just tear her apart. It would actually kind of explain how the fear and paranoia have turned her into such an angry and unstable shell of a person.
Voting Fraud from the Shim that declares women shouldn't have a right to vote at all. So how twisted is this bitch? That's pretty twisted.
*
Well the rethugs have been bitchin and screamin about voter fraud for quite A while now now they have there case...whooops
Its like I have seen my entire life. If you find someone that is worried about someone stealing from them its because they are trying to steal from someone.
I think you would have to see the same behavior from the republican party. They are always trying to steal votes so they believe that everyone else is doing the same.
They project their guilt onto everyone else!
[Deleted. TG bigotry. Not very smart, are you-Sitemonitor]
[Deleted. Transgender bigotry. And you are as funny and smart as Floyd George-Sitemonitor]
I thought Coulter was already under investigation for voter fraud in Florida - at least until the statute of limitations ran out - now Connecticut? How many states has she been voting in?
yeah, I mentioned that earlier, and here's a link to the first fraud case (that was thrown out) ShHere's a link to the 2006 story about her fraud. Basically used a realtor's office as her address so she could vote.
Why expect any justice now?
It's really Just US!
I could see her inclination in wanting to vote in the "nutmeg" state. Makes sense to me.
She's going down! And for the first time it won't be with an overly intoxicated man on the other end.
Amazing ... she can make crap up, slander people and make big $$ off books that do nothing more than just call people names ... That is OK, not fraud. But voting in the wrong area is illegal fraud? Now which is more serious???
It's not so much what she has done, but what the investigator gets their undies bunged over. Clinton was hounded over land fraud (GWB got the land for Houston stadium how?), drug deals (Iran Contra? Hello!) and got impeached over diddly.
I worked in a location where the staff were being harassed, we got rid of the harasser because she was spending petty cash on personal items. Emotionally abusing 15+ staff members and countless complaints over 10 years brought no resolution, spending petty cash on clothing got her booted in three months.
Ann Coulter is being probed.
I need to go take another shower. That conjures all kinds of bad imagery.
[Deleted. TG bigotry. How progressive and liberal of you-Sitemonitor]
[Deleted. TG bigotry. How progressive and liberal of you-Sitemonitor]
Okay, who volunteers to probe ann?
Even the critters at Roswell would hesitate at the thought of probing ann.
would LOVE to probe Ann...Billo's got his loofa ready.
Didn't this bitch do the same thing here in FL? She's got (or had) a place in Palm Beach but voted in another district.
her FBI boyfriend got her off
http://www.bradblog.com/?p=4538
I'm notta sure I want to picture ann getting off.
Only you could make me puke into my mouth a little, lol
Hit's boyfriends name was John Fitzgerald and I've always wondered if he's related to Fitz?
They got more Fitzgeralds in Ireland than you can swing a shillelagh at.
Seriously, a local right wing radio oaf beamed how he thought Coulter was 'smokin' hot'. Umm, she is as appealing as Rush limbaugh in a pizza dough thong..which is not that sexy...
Glad I wasn't caught with a mouth full of coffee reading your post...
Or pizza sauce?
This is why I base attractiveness on how people look and what they base their opinions on (as well as what those opinions are!)
If I were to encounter her on a blind date, I would think things were okay on looks, but I'd probably leave mid-date if her opinions came out.
.
For someone who's argued against voter fraud and ACORN, Ann Coulter is one self righteous b!tch.
.
I'm no Coulter fan but wtf?
It just seems odd that they would go after her now for this.
Why didn't anyone put her in cuffs for hate speech when she called John Edwards a ****** in front of a national audience?
If someone had said that about Rove or Cheney in a national forum like that, what would have happened?
Just wondering.
That she called Dan Borchers a "stalker." Only to the paranoid and mentally disturbed, I suppose. I hope she gets busted on this, it will confirm that not only did she commit fraud, she is just a fraud, period.
Good work, Dan.
Every time Grendel's Mom gets mentioned here, a lot of people want to claim that she's really male. I suppose that's because very few women are as acerbic and venomous as she is (ever heard of Phyllis Schlafley? Coulter is nothing compared to her).
But I have a different take on her. The twitchiness, the trapped animal eyes - this is a cokehead or a crankhead - maybe both. C'mon, she's not fashionably slim - she's anorexic, unhealthily so. The mile-a-second chatter? Haven't you people ever done amphetamines in college or tried coke? I'm almost leaning towards crank because unless she sees a plastic surgeon frequently, her septum looks intact.
Here's a test - dangle a Mountain Dew in front of her and see if her pupils dilate.
Or there is a more sinister explanation - an endocrine disorder causing excessive weight loss and neuronal malfuntioning. TG? I don't buy it - she just looks *really* unhealthy.
So either her doc is falling down on the job or she has a better dealer than Limbaugh because she hasn't been caught yet.
Vaclav
there's off-air video of her complaining how much nicorettes she has to chew, so there's that. I feel all Frist diangnosing her from a distance, though.
I admit I tried Coke while in the military.
It made me hiccup.
They're toxic, uneven batches. Long term use, hell, not even long term use of meth and crack ages the face dramatically, and there are all sorts of health problems. And her teeth would be shot.
Maybe she's just permanently ramped up. And naturally skinny. I have a friend that skinny, and that's just the way she is. Some people are. And if, as Bluegal says, there's a Nicorette thing going on-well nicotine is something that speeds up the digestive system. Like a laxative, which can cause weight loss. Since we can't all go over and search her house, we probably won't know.
And it's not important, nor is it our business.
You gotta admit that's a different matter? Right?
no comment ventured
[Ironically, you did venture a comment. The one above. So you approve of bigotry? You'd be ok with racist jokes on this site? Great. We'll keep that in mind-Sitemonitor]
at sight monitors, the here ring impaired, and touche fealty stuff.
But I could be wronged.
[Verrry subtle. Too subtle for me, apparently :| Sitemonitor]
Interesting that she continues to have this problem voting properly. What's the point of voting in CT over NY? Ultimately, I doubt this will go anywhere, though. This kind of thing is usually not prosecuted.
I thought it was over for her when she got caught plagiarizing one of her books, but she pretty much got away with that too.
When you outlaw Coultergiest TS jokes, only outlaws will have Coultergiest TS jokes. Bill Maher was right.
[Deleted-Sitemonitor]
Edit: SiteMoniter, you really should make a separate thread discussing the whole topic on if this is about bigotry, or people's loathing of Coulter and the no win scenario it places.
[What don't you get about NO TG STUFF. Do you think 's/he' is clever? Do you think if someone is born knowing they're not in the right body that it's a joke? That you have a right to make fun of them? Do you think someone's life condition is fodder for your amusement? I don't make the threads here, but NO DISCUSSION NEEDED. It's hurtful to people who endure more pain daily than you could possibly imagine, or bear yourself. That makes it bigotry. And if you don't get it, you're just plain thick. Now get out of here before I just up and ban you too. Your 's/he' as re Ms Coulter IS a bannable offense on this site-Sitemonitor]
Sitemon -- Glad you are improving standards on the board here. But I have to say, C&L has posted gender jokes about Coulter before. I remember one by Nicole Bell last year (a joke about "Oh and as a little aside, woman to....er, woman") --
http://crooksandliars.com/2008/02/02/ann-coul...
I just hope C&L institutes a zero-tolerance policy for its contributors too.
[So we're not perfect. Surprise. And that was when? Yesterday? No? Feb, 2008. OK. Are you 100% consistent? Because that was in a story a year ago, we should turn a blind eye to it now? I sent the link to the part of the team that may be able to address your concern. Back on topic please-Sitemonitor]
Why are you angry at me? I'm supporting you here. I just was pointing out that the site has not been right on this issue 100%. Glad you are cleaning up the site. Another suggestion (which I hope does not get misconstrued) is to close off the Coulter posts for additional comments after some time has passed. If you look at some of the older posts there are lots of anti-TG comments on them and I know you guys can stay up on all the old posts.
[Actually, I spent 3+ hours solid on this thread, and it wasn't until after I closed the thread, that I could go back and get the posts that were put up earlier, so you DON'T know any such thing. And posting more off topic junk is not the kind of support I needed this morning-Sitemonitor]
But to answer your question, yes, I apologize for my less-than-progressive past when others point it out to me.
I always thought those who poked fun of the transgendered were usually men uncertain about their own masculinity.
Ricky
Very well said. There are tons of things that Coulter can be criticized for [such as her unsubstantiated and idiotic charge that all liberals are traitors] without having to resort to such stupid and especially puerile comments involving the transgender community.
Why do the protection rackets work so well for the gop's? Is it that it is expected, no nod and a wink required?
After her incessant whining about liberals portraying themselves as perpetual victims, it's gonna' be a treat to see her mug for the press about how the liberals are lambasting her for voter fraud.
She'll wear her usual black dress(wonder if its been washed recently), and pout.
"The liberal media just won't let this thing go! Why are they always picking on poor lil` me?"
Because you deserve it, Ann. Every slight and comment.
v
every stain is sacred.

that Anne Coulter's whole life is all about teasing people.
For money.
the other times?
..... and they also beat the hell out of the mold-maker....
(Oops. This should have been in reply to Elephant Dung at 6:29. Sorry.)
Why the long face Ann? ;-)
I've never wished death on anyone - but there have been obituaries that I have read with a smile.
[Deleted. Sitemonitor]
commentary about the transgendered. Pick on the developmentally disabled. They appear to be fair game to the intellectually underendowed.
thom hartman did a coulter update today...he opened it by using the tune lola
OK SITE MONITOR???
IN TIMES LIKE THESE, WE NEED A SENSE OF HUMOR
[So if people started making jokes that denigrate, oh, I don't know. Lets pick a random group, say Jews, and we just let it go on, you'd be OK with that 'we need a sense of humor' crap you are trying to lay on me? I don't care what some bigoted idiot did on his show. This is not Thom Hartmann's place. And don't type at me in all caps-Sitemonitor]
excuse when backed into a corner over outrageous comments about the sexuality of others.
It is precisely Coulter's use of this tactic which makes me a tad ambivalent about the Site Monitor's point. When are the comments bigotry and when are they commentary on Coulter's own propensity to denigrate a target's sexual preference or proclivity?
However, I can find no justification for the constant use of "retard."
ricky -
You read my mind. See comment below, and together we may just educate some of these insensitive posters.
He is perfectly normal as are his friends. They get to say a whole lot of words in front of me that their mommies and daddies disapprove of. Retard is not one I let them get away with.
Well in the line of reasoning about "we need a sense of humor", Heather posted this video on C&L even though it had transgender jokes.
http://videocafe.crooksandliars.com/heather/d...
[And her disclaimer: "I apologize ahead of time for the man jokes told about Ann Coulter in this bit by The Daily Show. Not that I am concerned about any insults to Coulter, since she pretty well deserves every bit of scorn she's brought upon herself. Instead my concern is to the trans-gendered community, which doesn't deserve to be associated with her or used as a way to insult her. I know most trans-gendered people in this country are good and decent people and not hate-spewing attention whores like Coulter, and I hate to see her give anyone a bad name unfairly. Apparently The Daily Show didn't mind going there."
Now let's get back on the topic of the thread. It's about Ann Coulter being investigated for possible voter fraud-Sitemonitor]
Sitemonitor
Intelligently and persuasively well stated. One has to wonder at the immature comments that have been said regarding this post.
[Deleted. Off topic. You have a question, write to John or the site team-Sitemonitor]
But if you cross supreme beings off the list, I'm outta here.
It would be a perfect opportunity to lock all the doors, post guards, and make sure they never get out...make sure the room doesnt have a phone, btw....they are a crafty pair...
...wow. Just wow.
Frequently, I have heard Barack Obama mention diversity in America. He says we are:
"Black, White, Hispanic, Asian
Muslim, Christian, Jewish
Gay, Straight
Disabled, Not
Maybe I missed something but I don't ever recall hearing him say:
Transgendered, Not.
Maybe our president doesn't consider transgender a category?
[So that makes people who are transgendered OK targets for your bigotry? The president lays out categories and if it's not a category it's open season on them? Gotta love justification for crappy behavior. And how is this germane to 'NY Daily News: Ann Coulter Being Investigated for Voting Fraud'? Sitemonitor]
Category is when you make tennis racket strings.
[Right. Out til next Monday-Sitemonitor]
Ha ha. Coulter might go to jail.
