You have to look at it in the entire context. The point of her wit is that if women had not voted the Republicans would have taken every Presidential election since 1950, except for Goldwater in '64. But it's Coulter being witty, not Coulter premise. They completely ignore the obvious; shouldn't they be saying, "What a minute Coulter, what do you mean it would have been a better country if we only had Republican Presidents since 1950?" Ann's being very clever here, liberals miss the point entirely by seizing upon the right of women to vote (just like all you libs on ET). Too funny!

Thank you for posting these comments of hers. I always enjoy them; wish they could get traction in more chat rooms. The funny thing is, you seem to think you are ridiculing her by posting her comments. The only people who are ridiculed by their own comments are liberal. e.g. ( Who said: " I voted for that before I voted against it")?
I am not ridiculing her, I am showing how ridiculous for such hateful comments by her to be seen as "witty." These people, like Coulter, Hannity, Rush, and O'Reilly are not professional comedians, they pass themselves off as serious journalists. Take a guy like Bill Mahr or Jon Stewart, stand up comedians right from the get go, and everyone know it is from a comedy angle, not necessarily a journalistic angle. The acid test of course is to say the same things Ann says, but change the wording from liberal to conservative, and then honestly say if you find it witty...
One needn't have a Vegas lounge act to find liberals pathetically hilarious. I do agree that humor at the expense the mentally challenged left is a bit repugnant.
Coulter is just the Fox (pun intended) version of the Time's pseudo-intellect Dowd. I'd do either of them but I find Maureen's sexually repressed, DC Catholic schoolgirl act a bit passive-aggressive.
Z10, apparently you just aren't intelligent enough to figure it out. For example, you and your fellow libbers are still being zapped by Coulter... from coments she made three years ago. In this exchange: COULTER: They better hope the United States doesn't roll over one night and crush them. They are lucky we allow them to exist on the same continent. COULTER: We could have taken them [Canada] over so easily. [ALAN] COLMES: We could have taken them over? Is that what you want? COULTER: Yes, but no. All I want is the western portion, the ski areas, the cowboys, and the right-wingers. Do you really believe that Coulter wants to take over Canada for: "the ski areas, the cowboys, and the right-wingers." Or any other reason? Of course, your Z10 normal assinine response would be that she does. If so, therein is your problem, atypical of the liberal masses and media, "It's right there in black & white, Coulter wants to take over Canada." Too funny...!
Droll, as expected. There is no wit....not a wit of it. Will Rogers was witty, Ann is just a nazi with tits....
