Fox Guest Ann Coulter To Do Fund Raiser For Anti-Abortion Extremist

Posted by Priscilla 0.40pc on February 23, 2012 · Flag

Consider the following hypothetical. In the cause of his activism on behalf of an Islamic cause, a Muslim activist did the following: blockaded buildings; got arrested 40 times for various activities connected to the activism; disrupted Town Hall meetings; described himself as an extremist; palled around with a future assassin; and paid for TV ads featuring grisly photos of dead bodies. This person then runs for political office. A noted liberal pundit does a fund raiser for him. How do you think Fox guest Ann Coulter would respond?  For starters, I suspect that she would bray about treason and domestic terrorism. But if you make this hypothetical person a real life Christian anti-abortion radical, you have Democratic presidential candidate Randall Terry for whom - wait for it - Ann Coulter is doing a March 3rd fund raiser at an Oklahoma Baptist church which includes, as one of its members, birther State Rep. Mike Ritze.

Although she is a Romney supporter, the childless Coulter is doing this "to show solidarity with the pro-life cause."  Funny, didn't she once say that all Islamic countries should be carpet bombed? That certainly isn't pro-life - oh, wait, once you're born, all bets are off, especially if you're a Muslim. She also "joked" about how a liberal SCOTUS judge should be poisoned. Now that's pro-life at its finest.

Terry is "certain" that Coulter's "formidable talent and skills" will be "motivational and inspirational." And she is such a role model for the "pro-life" cause. Ya think!

Correction: Ann Coulter is a regular Fox News guest and not a contributor.

Randall Terry:

First let me say,I don’t hate you. Secondly sir,let me say I think you’re nuttier than a monk’s fruitcake. I find the incosistency of the idea of violence to prevent supposed ‘violence’ as silly as the ‘pre-emptive strike’. To me,the idea is completely at odds with peaceful protestation in a civilised society. Of course,‘civilised’ could be argued in the US.

I’m certain mizz Coultface will be a hit with her particular brand of Circus side-show freak ‘skills’.

Now Annie,show the audience how you make your adam’s apple move in time to the music! Cue ‘Born this way’ somebody!

Mr. Terry, I want to address something you said earlier: you said the following…

“Let’s say there was a man who -

blockaded buildings;
arrested 100 times for various activities connected to the activism;
disrupted Town Hall meetings;
described himself as an extremist;
was connected with people who participated in violence;
showed grisly photos of dead bodies;
interfered with the “legal rights” of businesses and individuals;
was Christian radical Christian Minister;
was under surveillance by the FBI;
and would probably be labelled as a “domestic terrorist” under the Patriot Act.

That man, of course, would be an American Hero, because he fought against evil and injustice."

Mr terry, alining yourself with people who participated in violence against, what I am assuming is pro-choice individuals, does not make you an American hero. In fact, you said it yourself: it makes you a religious, fundamental extremist. You cannot claim holy ground if you are advocating violence in the name of your religion, and for an issue that has everything to do with the health and the well-being of a woman.

“while Dr. King did not promote them, he was blamed for inciting the violence because of his civil disobedience, and strident rhetoric. "

First of all, King was adamant that a violent majority would undermine a non-violent majority. When asked about the violent minority, his response was:

“Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man, but you refuse to hate him.

YOU, on the other hand… when you’re not indifferent to violence in your movement , you’re endorsing it.

Remember your lawsuit in 1998?

Remember the deal with Charles Kopp?

Remember Susan Estrich actually calling you a psycho on Fox News, and no one protesting that?

Remember when all the other pro-life groups condemned you because they see your endorsements of violence as a detriment to their cause?

Remember when Catholics united condemned you as an overzealous nutcase?

Come back when you wanna embarrass yourself a little more. We’ll be more than happy to help you with that.

BTW, since you can’t tell through the advances of 21st technology, you only have a couple years on me in age. That would be 12 years of parochial school, college, US Army, and a police lieutenant, as well as detective in computer crimes and sexual abuse. Now if only you would go after the Catholic Church, who has yet to excommunicate a priest that they played musical chairs with nor turned them over to law enforcement, instead of just paying off the child victims of those priests, maybe someone will actually take some validity in your “rhetoric”. As well as that the United States is descending in the ranks of infant mortality rates to 30th in the 21st century. Yes I know, it’s a common phrase used, but it has consistently been proven to be true, especially by the likes of you. You only care about more about the fetus, than you do the child after birth.

Actually I’m quite familiar with MLK, we studied quite a bit in that little thing you’ve never had the intelligence to be in, it’s called a law enforcement academy. I’m also very familiar to the KKK, as our own city and law enforcement agencies had to provide security for the event. For some reason what you’ve done in the past seems very similar to what those Klan leaders had to say that day.

Mr. Terry, we’re just going to agree to disagree.

I’m sure you’re familiar with the question when Larry King ask Dan Quayle during the 92 election, and how he stumbled badly with his response. The many that I know or known who are pro-life, only a very few hold your position. To be fair to you that may because I live in California. If I lived in Utah or the south, I’m sure I would hear an opposite view.

I’m the father of twin girls who will be 14 in May. I’m thankful that they both look like their beautiful mother, and nothing like me. I never want to see them be forced to give birth or face jail, and I will continue to vote for candidates who will support a women right to choose.

When you said “For the times when both cannot be saved, it must be up to the mother and father; to the father, if the mother is unconscious”, we know how you didn’t have this opinion in the case of Terri Schiavo.

The lesson learned from that case is that both my wife and I had legal papers spell out that we don’t want to be on life support, in case we are ever faced with that decsion.

To Doors17, Randall Terry here.

Thank you for your question.

Concerning rape and incest, the simple answer is, “no.” We do not kill children for the crimes of their fathers. Moreover, killing a child will not undo rape or incest; but it will compound the trauma for a mother.

Concerning when a mother’s life is immediately threatened by the presence of the child – such as a tubal pregnancy – it has always been legal, and will always be legal. Moreover, in that circumstance, the child cannot survive outside the womb. If the child and the fallopian tube are not removed, the mother and the child will both perish. In that situation, the mother has the right to guard her life, because her motive was not the murder of her child.

The medical reality is that with the exception of tubal pregnancies, medical science has proceeded to the point where mothers and children can be saved in high risk pregnancies. For the times when both cannot be saved, it must be up to the mother and father; to the father, if the mother is unconscious.

With that medical emergency as the exception, we will make it a criminal act for a woman “and her doctor” to kill an unborn human being, from conception till birth.

Mr. Terry, are there any circumstances that you would find abortion acceptable? Rape, incent or the life of the mother? Anything?
Randall Terry commented 2012-02-24 18:33:12 -0500 · Flag
Hi Domenica.

I have a strong feeling you have not studied the civil rights movement. Many acts of violence took place in the civil rights movement; and while Dr. King did not promote them, he was blamed for inciting the violence because of his civil disobedience, and strident rhetoric.

Do some more research before you embarrass yourself in print again.

Randall

I don’t recall MLK being at the trial of a killer like that of Roeder, praising him for killing Doctor Tiller in his own church. Or MLK encouraging others to bomb the building of abortion clinics. I didn’t serve in the US Army and as a police lieutenant of my city for a complete disgusting cowardly asshat that can only be compared to Timothy McVeigh.

The opposite of pro-choice is anti-choice.

One should not refer to themselves as pro-life if they condone war. Children, babies, and pregnant women are often the casualties of war.
doors17 commented 2012-02-24 10:23:01 -0500 · Flag
Probably like many here I’m not pro abortion, but pro choice. By that I mean that just as no political or religious philosophy have the right to say you can’t, the same rules apply if they say you have to.

The decision to do so is not made easily. It is a personal medical decision. Not political.You don’t know what that individual situation is.

The Pro life side needs to focus on the dead beat dads who don’t help with providing emotional, financial and being there for the mother and baby. Daddy can do a hit and run, while the mother leaves the evidence leaving them to deal with scorn from a small percentage of society.

I will always vote for those who support the womens right to choose.

Randall Terry exists because of attention seeking stunts like this one. He and Coulter are seeking our outrage. They won’t be getting mine. There are ways to fight against extreme positions without promoting the careers of extremists.

Hi Priscilla, Randall Terry here.

Let’s say there was a man who -

blockaded buildings;
arrested 100 times for various activities connected to the activism;
disrupted Town Hall meetings;
described himself as an extremist;
was connected with people who participated in violence;
showed grisly photos of dead bodies;
interfered with the “legal rights” of businesses and individuals;
was Christian radical Christian Minister;
was under surveillance by the FBI;
and would probably be labelled as a “domestic terrorist” under the Patriot Act.

That man, of course, would be an American Hero, because he fought against evil and injustice. He did the right thing, even though the powerful at the time (and those addicted to the status quo) called him a radical, a trouble maker, and extremist, etc. And thank God, he and his co-laborers prevailed.

The evil and injustice that we fight against – the murder of innocent babies – is a far greater evil and injustice that the Jim Crow laws that Martin Luther King Jr. fought against in the 1960s.

And by God’s grace, we too will prevail in this epic struggle between good and evil. We will use his tactics, and employ his strategies (and those of other successful peaceful social revolutions), and we will make it a crime to murder innocent human beings from conception until death.

And if you try to kill your baby when it is illegal, I pray get arrested before you succeed, and your child’s life is spared.

You can see the ads for which we are raising money at www.TerryForPresident.com.

God open your eyes.

OH, and Randall, BTW. The American legal system does not categorize abortion as “murder” but rather, as a surgical procedure albeit with various restrictions depending on the state. Just an FYI and all that…But nice to know that you and Ann have joined forces.
Priscilla commented 2012-02-23 18:33:48 -0500 · Flag
So Randall Terry, anti-abortion domestic terrorist, finds fault with my totally accurate reporting. Fancy That. Way to go, Terry. You’re just sooooo mainstream….Susan Falludi had you pegged 20 years ago. In other words, old school “backlash.” And utilizing the services of Ann Coulter will really score points – Not. LOL.
NewsHound Alex commented 2012-02-23 17:17:03 -0500 · Flag
So Mr. Randall Terry – if that is who you really are, and not some troll pretending to be Randall Terry – please tell us which part of Priscilla’s description of you is inaccurate:

blockaded buildings;
arrested 40 times for various activities connected to the activism;
disrupted Town Hall meetings;
described himself as an extremist;
palled around with a future assassin;
paid for TV ads featuring grisly photos of dead bodies;
Democratic presidential candidate;
Christian anti-abortion radical.

You call that a rant? I call that accurate reporting. If you can’t take the heat stay out of the kitchen. And while you’re at it, stay out of our wombs.
