Ann Coulter: ‘Everyone Knows… We Secretly Want The Government Shut Down’

video
» 254 comments

It’s a rare episode of Hannity that includes a segment where the show’s host exclaims “you are dead wrong!” indignantly at Ann Coulter. This is one of those gems. Sean Hannity could not understand the argument that Republicans were in jeopardy should Cut, Cap, and Balance pass the House but not the Senate, and Coulter attempted to explain that the spin would be unfavorable to them. Aside from the media bias, she argued, “everyone knows, deep in our conservatives hearts, we want the government shut down.”

“The people know that– we are going to be dancing a jig,” Coulter joked as the countdown to a debt default ticked away. This came after an extensive talk on the perception of the debt debate from the average American’s perspective who wasn’t following the whole debate. “Republicans will be blamed,” she argued, even though they were playing “a game of chicken with the Democrats offering nothing.” As “Cut, Cap and Balance” is expected to fail, Coulter argued, “that will fit into the counterfactual narrative of Tea Partiers refusing to compromise.”

Hannity didn’t buy this line of thinking at all. “Why don’t they pass Cut, Cap and Balance, cross their hands, and say ‘your move’?” Coulter replied that the problem was that the casual observer would know only that a Republican bill failed– “some stories are big enough,” she argued, using as an example that she had no power over the fact that she was aware of the existence of Snooki. Should Cut, Cap, and Balance fail in the House, too– especially if the Tea Party representatives are the deciding vote, she concluded, “the narrative is going to be ‘These crazy Tea Party Republicans shut down the government.”

    China Officials”appalled” by Us Congress

    http://www.fa-mag.com/fa-news/8082-roach-says-chinese-officials-appalled-by-us-debt-impasse-.html

    They own most of our debt and say a default will be “Devastating” to the US. 

    Republicans own this now, so I guess we will all get to see what happens. Hope you don’t own many stocks, everything is going down.. including the price of your home.. pretty much any American property will be devalued. Hope it’s worth it guys, it’s funny that the people fighting for this don’t even have much money to begin with and are actually fighting for tax cuts for corporations.

    You do know those people will be fine right? Either way? You’re the one that’s going to suffer from the default and only Republicans are to blame.

    What everyone will know is that Republicans and in particular the Tea Party are dead beats who don’t think the USA should pay its bills.

    That dead beat dad Joe Walsh is a great example.

    “A former teacher with a history of foreclosure and liens for failing to pay income taxes”

    “Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.), who has made the media rounds bashing President
    Obama on the national debt, is being sued for $117,437 in back child
    support he allegedly owes his ex-wife and their three children, the Chicago Sun-Times reported, according to divorce documents filed in court in December.”

    What does his lawyer have to say about Walsh who doesn’t support his own children:
    “he’s had no more problems with child support than any other average guy.”

    Ya, right.  What a guy.  What a TP congressman.

    if it is a talking point, find and use facts to disprove it.  A good way to deconstruct an argument is to ask simple, pointed questions asking them to back up what they claim.  A good sign that some one is just using hyperbole and not facts (or just looking to get a response) is to insult (directly or indirectly) using opinions or facts not related to the topic at hand.

    I rarely comment on Ann Coulter because she’s such an out and out phony. She’s clever but very transparent. You get the feeling that when she grows up she’ll be a progressive liberal and apologize for her outrageous behavior. But she stated the one absolute truth about rightwingers, i.e. they want to destroy Obama and our government. As naive and foolish as the American public has been these many years, we may all be reaching the point that we won’t be suckered by this idiotic Tea Party rhetoric any longer. This shameful debt ceiling episode plus the sudden implosion of the Murdoch empire will be seen as the turning point for the reactionaries. The Tea Party will been seen as wrecking party.

    Ann, you’re on FOX News.  Keep to the script!

    Every tea party loon and many conservatives do indeed want to block raising the debt limit — for some, because they are completely ignorant about what the debt limit is and the causal impact of not raising it, and others because they are well aware of what they are doing, and they strongly believe that causing the national economy to tank would be the single best strategy to cause political damage to Obama.

He had the house and senate at the time but couldn’t pull it together and let the tax cuts expire. It would have shown a lot a balls and he would have taken a lot of heat but in he caved to the republicans and made a deal.

    It would have been so nice just to hear some blurb on the news two weeks ago saying “Democrats and Republicans compromised and passed the debt ceiling today” I wonder what we’d be talking about these last few weeks if this crisis never happened.

    To me that will go down as the single biggest mistake of his Presidency, thus far.  NEVER, ever, give in to blackmail and hostage taking.  I do believe his heart was in the right place in wanting to protect the unemployed.  He’s the first president since Clinton who lived a life of the *every man*.  He knows the pain of living with no money and so he just couldn’t do it.  But I knew that if he caved to their blackmail the only thing the right would take from that is that blackmail works with this man.  Sadly, it seems, I was right.  Not much you can do when dealing with people who lack empathy.

    And o’bama kept the policies that Bush started, PLUS he is illegally bombing Libya.

    Barack Obama promised to close the detention center at Guantanamo Bay as soon as he took office for almost two years on the campaign trail, and he made that one of his first actions when he assumed office.  Now, suddenly, Obama has discovered what we all knew the entire time — that closing Gitmo means sending terrorists back to countries that won’t secure them, especially Yemen.  Now they don’t have a Plan B for some of the worst of the worst:

    As Ted “the woman water torturer till she dies” Kennedy said, “Gitmo is open, under new management! Hail the Chappaquiddick Kid… The “Swimmer”…

    o’bama saw those trillions and multiplied it by 3!

    Republicans ARE going to be demonized any way they turn since the mainstream media is absolutely in the bag, more so than at any point in my and probably your lifetime, for the Democratic agenda under Obama.  The Democrats are NOT offering debt reduction plans and rejecting those that are sent forward – they ARE going to demagogue the issue, for to recognize the debt as a problem that can no longer be put off and to compromise towards its reduction would be a fundamental change to their tax and spend governing philosophy.  It’s akin to asking Democrats no longer be Democrats.

    So why not try to fix the country and stop trembling in fear over inevitabilities?

    Allowing the debt ceiling negotiations ‘deadline’ to pass without a deal doesn’t mean America defaults on its debt obligations.  America takes in more tax revenues in a month than is needed to cover that expense – and then some.  Social Security checks will go out.  Military personnel will be paid.  When the country sees only a few park rangers whining on TV instead of the sky falling on their heads, the media that predicted Armageddon is going to lose credibility, and Republicans can then remind America how the Dems failed to pass any of their legislation.

    —Geithner appoints as chief of staff Mark Patterson, a former Goldman Sachs lobbyist, who will be overseeing the Treasury’s $700 billion TARP program. Goldman has already received $10 billion of that money.

    —Obama appoints an acting Secretary of Labor, because his nominee Hilda Solis used to be the treasurer of American Rights at Work, which is strongly in favor of card check legislation, angering Republicans. Further, ARW is a labor lobbying group and Solis’ position as treasurer there calls into question — again — Obama’s commitment to reducing the influence of lobbyists.

    —The administration waived its lobbying rules for William Lynn, who lobbied for a defense contractor as recently as last year, to serve as deputy Defense secretary. When asked about this during a visit to the White House press room, Obama “flashes irritation,” according to Politico.

    I believe that I have imagineered a solution to this impasse.  It is a simple three step solution with only two stipulations.
    1:  Organize a national vote on the question:  ”Do you believe that a modern nation benefits from a Federal system of government or functions better as a Confederacy?
    2:  Tabulate the vote and identify counties that value Confederal over the current Federal system.
    3:  Ask the Confederates to kindly manage themselves.

    Stipulation #1:  The Federals would be allowed to build very limited high speed transportation systems through the Confederate areas.
    Stipulation #2:  The Confederates would be allowed, upon reaching the age of 18, to elect for permanent immigration to a Federal area without threat of reprise.

    I believe that this plan is a long brewing imperative.  Ever since our Federal dissolution and eventual reconstitution by force of arms, a deep distrust of Federalism has festered amongst the minimalist clans scattered along the edges of large cities and towns.  

    I say let them be free of all federal burden and benefit.  Allow them to forge brave new libertarian economies with strict social regulation.  

    They will still be our brothers and sisters, friends and associates… but we will cease to have this draining debate.   Let the citizens of Denton (TX), Cumming (GA) and Franklin (TENN) prove their principals against San Francisco, Boulder and Manhattan.  

    May the better system prove itself, for once and for all.

    It’s past time to get off that “The whole world thinks…” line of thought.  Obama’s popularity in foreign capitals has fallen through the floor.  At least they respected Bush, even if they didn’t like him.  Our foreign policy now engenders both dislike and disrespect.

    Those in power are Democrats and those big corporation playing ball with the Obama administration’s crony socialism in order to finagle one of the thousands of exemption to Obamacare or to jump through tax loopholes pretending to “go green” so that the likes of GE can get away without paying taxes.  Republicans are the only party responsibly acting to draw down the outrageous debt our country has racked up.  Under the Tea Party’s influence, they’ve passed a budget (the previous 2 Democratically controlled congresses did not), they’ve offered several proposals to tackle the debt problem (there is no corresponding Obama plan or congressional Democratic plan as a basis for negotiations) an ultimately proposed a Balanced Budget Amendment, something the American people have been in favor of for years  The Dems rejected it as “symbolic.”

     Hey call me crazy on this and maybe ill even piss some of my fellow Dems off. But I think we all agree that some spending needs cut correct. Why don’t they just agree to have a federal pay freeze for the next five years. What I mean is whatever our budget is today we don’t raise it one cent for five years. All depts across the board from spending that the right likes(defense, cooperate subsides and so forth) to spending that the left likes(social security,medicare,medicaid,) will have to make due with what they have now. No raises for fed employees in any area. Tax revenues in theory will go up because more people would flow into the job market and walla! The deficit begins to shrink and soon the actual debt begins to sink. I know people will have to sacrifice but isn’t that what is needed anyway? Is this unrealistic? And if so why?

    limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government
    can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial
    assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal
    policies. … Increasing America’s
    debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that ‘the
    buck stops here’. Instead, Washington
    is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and
    grandchildren. America
    has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better.”

    You’d have to freeze promotions, too, or else everyone would continue to climb up the salary schedule. And I presume they get more pay for seniority. 

    No, what needs to happen is that most departments and agencies have to shrink, some of them drastically… 20%, 30%, 50%… and some ought to disappear entirely. The ones that have grown the fastest in the last 10 years should shrink the most — Homeland Security comes to mind.

    Wait, might we agree on something?  Now what does it say to you that you think that reasoned approach will anger Dems? Just something to think about.

  • insideguy

     Lol i think my plan would piss everyone off therefore thats why it has no chance of passing. See Michelle the difference between me and you is that you actually believe the republicans want to cut the federal budget. I don’t. They may want to cut certain areas of the federal govt but on the backend they just add it to programs they like. So if my really simple plan were to be presented both parties would hate it because neither actually is serious about cutting the budget.

    Well, I think some of them want to cut it, but not nearly enough of them.

     no not necessarily see the promotions would have to occur agree but in theory the govt would shrink as this occurs over five years because as people would retire they would have to learn to become more efficient actually reducing the number of fe employees without laying anybody off. So you would get your shrinkage.

  • John

    The govt. has cut it’s own throat with the out control spending. We need to reduce the size of this massively over bloated govt. To keep on the same fiscal policy is suicide. Both parties are to blame but blaming each other is not a solution to the problem. Cuts cuts cuts are needed if we are to get on the right path. Just how much govt. waste, fraud and overlapping is probably staggering in and of itself. Any time you get the govt. involved in anything cost automatically shoot through roof. Ron Paul has get the govt. out of daily lives and you have much freer society. Listen just listen and beauracrats in Washington might just learn something.

  • insideguy

     naaaa the house just voted to add 17 billion to an already bloated defense budget. This is the house we are talking about the one filled with tea party guys. If they voted for that what makes you think they are really serious about cutting anything? Only 7 house republicans voted against the increase in defense spending.

    Republicans tied up in “nots” over debt ceiling:

    Frustrated and a tad despondent over their inability to bring Obama to
    his knees during the debt ceiling talks, Republican party operatives have reportedly hired
    Jeff Stinger, President of K.N.O.T. (Kindness Never Overcomes Tenacity) Inc to
    help the party regain the political initiative.

    Stinger has never ever talked to the media; he prefers
    to function way behind the scenes.

    “He gets the job done. Period,” said a Stinger
    friend of a friend.

    A friend of a friend of a friend added, “Stinger is a
    pro at creating the perception of a crisis where there isn’t one. It drives the
    Democrats crazy!”

    I believe you are into cognitive dissonance.

    I say conservatives win at the ballot box in 2012 as they did in 2010. And then, 2014… unless a liberal like you believes algore that we are doomed in 2012. Stupid movie btw.

    And the better system will prove itself, but in America, we remain free to change the system at any election cycle. Once and for all is a kingship or a dictatorship. It is not American. The confederacy already lost, and it let to the freedom of black slaves, and is not a very politically correct term unless you wear a white hood, burn crosses, vote democrat, and fly the confederate flag in your bedroom.

    The debate may be draining you, but then again, you are limited in your ability to carry on a sustained debate without blathering on like this post, and using terms such as “cognitive dissonance” without understanding what it means. But you “felt” so smart…

  • insideguy

     Well I would personally like to close loopholes for sure. Thats another part of my plan no subsidies for anyone. No cooperate subsidizes no farm subsidizes no tax breaks for kids, no tax breaks for mortage deductions, no tax breaks for charitable donations ect. That way revenue would increase across the board and cost would go down. What I mean is we get a mortage deduction for our home correct. Well if you didn’t the market would be forced to lower home prices across the board the fed would get more money and you as the consumer would get a house for cheaper. Same with low cost student loans. Don’t have the fed back em. The universities would be forced to lower their prices and kids and their parents wouldn’t have to go into massive debt to afford to go. The rich would have to pay more because they own the big homes and wouldn’t get the massive tax breaks in owning them. Same with charities people wo give should give for the right reasons not to get a tax break.

  • insideguy

    so in theory the revenue coming in to the fed would be a lot more:)

  • insideguy

     Ahhh thats the kicker well since home prices would be lower in theory more would be built because more people could afford them. State and local govt could begin to hire again but would probably have to raise taxes( cause the dirty little secret is all state and local govt gets a huge amount of money from grants) but thats ok they could continue getting the same grant money they are getting currently just no more than they get now. Now the states and local economies could still give tax breaks I suppose it they want to new start up businesses and large corporations but the fed wont. I would think business would go on as normal and compete with each other. My only problem with this whole plan is the health ins aspect of it. Because those cost continue to blow up way faster than inflation which would kill medicare and medicaid worse than it is now. Maybe Id make an exception and have the feds give business a tax break if and only if they offer ins to their employees? That way they would have an financial  encouragement to do so?

    That is so unrealistic I don’t know where to start…so no new hires for the federal government because that would mean people would need to be paid- but we can’t increase payroll, promotions would be in title only not salary. How do you presume that tax revenue would increase, from less government spending? Only 50 % (or higher) of Americans actually pay tax.  So what you are proposing is to cut the federal government, basically freeze it as is, (sounds very Tea Partyish) let the private sector create the jobs since they wouldn’t be under the same restrictions as the public employees (although they are all exempt from Obamacare thanks to their vouchers).  The private sector would grow at an exponential rate compared to the government (very anti-Obama). Corporate tax is determined by state in many cases so those who are tax friendly would benefit more. Keep the government out of all private companies, no government bailouts.

    To your loopholes – no tax benefits for having children,(come on! what kind of person are you) charitable donations (unfortunately that is how many charities survive, the non-profit status would need to be revised). As for the big house – size doesn’t matter, location does. As for universities – I agree that the federal government should not be in the loan business, nor should universities be in the affirmative action business, cut loose the aging professor, drop tenure, and get rid of 6 & 7 figure admin. salaries and the tuition would drop dramatically.
    keep talking… we may actually reach a deal before Aug 2.

    We are not free to change from one “system” to another by electoral consequence.  The Federal system is enshrined by Constitutional mandate. 

    “Once and for all is a kingship or a dictatorship.”
    In what manner?  You believe that “kingship” (Monarchial Government) and Dictatorial political forms are more permanent than governments that celebrate popular sovereignty?  

    “The confederacy already lost, and it led to the freedom of black slaves, and is not a very politically correct term unless you wear a white hood, burn crosses, vote democrat, and fly the confederate flag in your bedroom right next to your Robert KKK Byrd poster.”
    The Confederacy is beloved by many modern conservatives, informs the political motivations of those who oppose Federal authority and secession was most recently greeted with casual approval by a Republican Governor.  The Confederate flag has flown over modern conservative state capitals, but never New York, Chicago or Detroit.

    no not no new hires yes people would retire but each area of the govt would have to make due with what they are getting currently. So for every two people retiring hire two get it?  The tax revenue would increase because no one would be getting any dedcutions thereby everyone across the board would be paying taxes.  And the wealthy would be paying a lot more because they wouldn’t be getting massive deductions for their mansions and charitable donations. And why should a person who has 8 kids get a larger tax break than a family who has 2? That never made sense to me.  see this is the problem surfer girl everyone complains about govt spending but they like the benefits THEY get from the govt.

    Ann is right; you can not cure the country’s ills in one year. It will take time to reduce this unsustainable that is  > than 100% of GNP debt.

     good for you just4fax im glad your speaking for all republicans and know what they have done. And if you put your money into a no risk fund you haven’t made a lot of money because the market has been going up ever since Obama has been in office so I have made a lot of money. I really think you are a small child and you have no idea what you are talking about.

    WASHINGTON (AP) — The House on Friday overwhelmingly passed a $649 billion defense spending bill that boosts the Pentagon budget by $17 billion and covers the costs of wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
    The strong bipartisan vote was 336-87 and reflected lawmakers’ intent to ensure national security, preserve defense jobs across the nation and avoid deep cuts while the country is at war.
    While House Republican leaders slashed billions from all other government agencies, the Defense Department is the only one that will see a double-digit increase in its budget beginning Oct. 1.
    Amid negotiations to cut spending and raise the nation’s borrowing limit, the House rejected several amendments to cut the Pentagon budget, including a measure by Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., to halve the bill’s increase in defense spending.
    “We are at a time of austerity. We are at a time when the important programs, valid programs, are being cut back,” Frank said.
    Scoffing at the suggestion that “everything is on the table” in budget negotiations between the Obama administration and congressional leaders, Frank said, “The military budget is not on the table. The military is at the table, and it is eating everybody else’s lunch.”

    I do believe the Tea Party Caucus sees this as a way to achieve what they wanted to do before, which is shut the government down.  They are just not aware of the consequences.  Already, MUCH money has been spent in contingency planning that may not be needed.  The last shut down sent workers home who were paid anyway.  This “shut down”. of course, will have much more serious financial consequences.

    I agree with Mark Twain: “Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress; but I repeat myself.”

    At this point if I were in Congress, I would be ashamed to admit it.  We sent them to run the government, not their mouths.

    Quote: “The House on Friday overwhelmingly passed a $649 billion defense spending bill that boosts the Pentagon budget by $17 billion and covers the costs of wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
    The strong bipartisan vote was 336-87 …  the Defense Department is the only one that will see a double-digit increase in its budget beginning Oct. 1. (end of quote)

    It seems to me that the author has a strange concept of the term “double-digit” — usually it refers to a percentage, and 2.7% is “double-digit” only if you ignore the decimal point.I would be curious to see what programs are being funded, which are getting more money, which are being cut.

    But instead we are treated to the opinions of the ranking member of the Banking Committee — is he an expert on defense policy? or budget policy?

     Barney was in this article but it wasn’t the point it was just one of hundreds on this subject. I think the point of the author was that the DD was getting double increase in its budget(ie 17 billion) at a time when the govt apparently has no money. The percentage increase was not mentioned and unless your a numbers cruncher its not really relevant. The point is that 7 house republicans voted against this budget. 7 , 80 democrats voted against it. I don’t even put stock in this 80 deem votes because they were probably political in nature anyway. But this is a house that supposedly has conservative tea party members investing it. They not only left this budget the same. They increased it 6 months after getting elected to so just the opposite. Once again I have no faith in these people and neither should anyone else.

    This is no secret. Everyone I talk to knows that it’s going to take an unprecedented crisis to force the correction needed to stop Obimbo’s insane administration.
    Taking advantage of a crises is a two way street. It’s not only a tool the government can use, it’s a tool the citizens of this country can use to set this Nation on the correct course.

The lunatics on the right are funded by wealthy people like the Kochs, just like you Ann. Ann’s never worked for a living, created a business, or even been in government.

     Not true this is such simplified conservative bullcrap. What would you propose a flat tax? Making broad statements like this about socialism is silly. None of your guys in congress have ever gotten tax reform off the table. None are interested in it yet they have you fooled into thinking they actually are going to do something.

    There a difference between “taking advantage of a crisis” and creating a crisis purely to bring down a government you disagree with over the will of the people who elected that government …. the latter borders on treason.

    You can say it is Obama’s failed economy all you want, but everything we are dealing with here is the aftermath of the “Great Bush Depression”.  The fact that efforts at rebounding the economy are taking a long time (with no assist from the Republicans to speak of) does not make this “Obama’s FAILED economy”.  Passing the increase in the “debt ceiling” is not something normally paired with budget negotiations, but something that is usually done routinely and without further ado!  The rhetoric surrounding THIS proposed increase in the debt ceiling places it in tandem with complex budget negotiations, and dependent on factors never before used in doing this simple task.  This is just another exercise by the Republican House to undermine the economy while trying to lay blame on  the Democratic President for everything occurring in the economic world, and, in reality causing the failure of our process to try to insure President Obama loses in 2012.  News for you: you are doing more to re-elect President Obama by your childish behaviour than could ever be achieved by campaign ads, or other methods he might use.  Thanks to you, you stupid children.

    Ann Coulter does not “Hate America.”  She doesn’t even “hate” you, DAVE.  Rather, Ann views you as an obstacle, an expendable obstacle, as you are an impediment to the overall intellect of America and Americans.

    In other words, if you behave, you might be allowed to live.  You do, however, have to start reading books, and not just Comic Books.

    $117,437 in child support is too much money, I don’t care how much you make. Children aren’t that expensive. Can’t his ex-wife work? Men SHOULD be scoffing at child support when the courts unfairly distribute time to the mother and then pay her undercover alimony through child support. I don’t see how that reflects negatively on his character at all. Failure to pay income taxes is all right in my book, too. Does he have a history of bad personal debt? That’s really more to the point in this discussion.

    Hey I think that we should tax the heck out of the middle class until they are broke, poor and will take whatever they can get.  Along with that we should make all of the poor stupid people think they will magically be smart and wealthy if they vote for people who hate their best interests.   Cool p;an!  We are a mockery of our Constitition, which I love with all my heart.
