Settlers, immigrants, Sooners, squatters -- call 'em whatever you like, but the point is, the peeps who first arrived in what would become America weren't any more indigenous to this territory than the Mexicans and others who cross our borders, both legally and illegally, today.

I watched the clip and i have complete sympathy for Ann Coulter regarding the View.   They brought her on to their show and the objective was to tagteam her but as crazy as she is she is better at this than they are.    So first they have that spanish woman (I have no idea who she is) saying she doesn't have to be a maid.   That is irrelevant and apropos of  nothing.  Ann Coulter has never discussed wealthy immigrant celebs who get paid to be appear on TV and how their are impacting the country.   Then Raven Symone starts her little shtick with this bogus speech about how her mother told her if you don't have anything nice to say better to say nothing at all. 

 

 

     What got me were the trained seals in the audience who applauded Raven for that hypocritical little gem.   Then Ann Coulter shuts her right down, politely, and yet the audience doesn't applaud her for calling out Miss Symone on her hypocrisy.   As a matter of fact not a single person on that panel bothered to say "Ann has a point" but they were all talking over each other to not let her get a word in defending herself, interrupting her when they thought they had a new line of attack.    She's the F-ing guest and doesn't deserve that.   And the joke is all this does is allow her to go to FOX for a segment on what BS the liberal media is--and this time it will 100% right.

The point is, whether she was ganged up on or not, her views are bigoted, racist, and completely discriminatory. She was spewing disdain and basically hatespeak. Settler my ass. Her family immigrated to North America. All of that crap that "SETTLERS"   are different than immigrants is DELUSIONAL. 

 

I understand that she is entitled to her opinion, but so are all of the people that believe this nation's basic truths...such as "Give me your tired, your poor"...Perhaps her ignorant ass should go out and work a real job for a little while, and try to survive on minimum wage. We are a nation that welcomes both rich and poor.

 

Why no one cheered when she insulted Raven...because there was no sign saying applaud for the audience to clap. Raven may have been shut down, but the bottom line, her ignorance is she doesn't know enough to keep her mouth shut. Coulter has hateful views about people. I doubt half the audience took their free book home.

I really can't stand AC, but immigration is a hard issue. Does the fact that most of us are descended from immigrants mean that we have to have open borders? I don't think that's practical or smart. It's also not practical to deport huge numbers of people or have a fence , so I really don't know what the answer is. Maybe some sort of guest worker program, but that poses it's own issues.

I totally agree that immigration laws need work. We also have to have enough restrictions, etc. I just was disgusted by her in general(I basically don't have the time or tolerance for her). But to just rant like she was on national television about "domestics" and the like, she's just a nasty person.

    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
    • So Doug just leaves Vanessa there with Joey? He's a f*cking loser. Vanessa needs to divorce his arse 
    • Tina Sloan tied Jerry VerDorn record when Guiding Light was cancelled - 26 years uninterrupted 
    • Very true...but TPTB all were desperate to get into prime time or films and couldn't, so they looked down on their own industry and tried to infuse themes that just didn't work in soaps. I would have thought after 9/11 the shows would have gone out of their way to provide that warmth and comfort that the audience wanted, and to bring old viewers back. Budget cuts? Just bring back kitchen sets, both ATWT and GL got rid of those besides one each..(the Snyders and the Bauers) You don't need super fancy sets if you have the writing. 
    • LMAO they didn't
