“I dunno. A camel?” . Shaidle was there.
I disagree with the majority of right leaning freespeechers on this point – I believe we need more of this. “Either what (Mr. Houle) did was a hate crime, or the whole commission is BS.”
Update: And another poll goes horribly wrong….

Grok. She didn’t. If you had been there it would have been self-evident.
A totally set-up question to try and get her in a “gotcha” moment. She didn’t buy into it and brushed-off the youngsters’ childish caterwauling
by tossing it out and carrying on with the program.
Atric @ 11:48 am: “The “camel” comment was made for a reason which Coulter described later, however it seems to have escaped the media’s attention.”
I wonder if the media senses what I do. This woman’s tour is guaranteed to out all the PC crap that we’ve had to endure for so long. They are afraid that bringing attention to what she says may pique the interest of all sort of people who hadn’t paid any attention to her before, and some will approach the subject without the PC MSM induced stupor. And that will never do.
I feel compelled to comment on the absolutely outstanding presentation that Ezra Levant made at last night’s Coulter appearance.
His passion and knowledge of the free speach issue was front and center and he did all right-thinking Canadians proud, as evidenced by a sustained standing ovation by the audience.
He not only preached to the choir but engaged the nay-sayers in his presentation and, in my humble opinion, may well have made a few converts.
My adimiration for Coulter knows no bounds, however she will go home soon and pursue her interests. Levant, on the other hand, is our favorite son and will be with us for years to come.

The post 09/11 rant by Sunera Thobani will follow her..She is IMHO one sick puppy that must never be allowed to enter the USA… All members of UBC/CBC, likewise, need special security measures…
ET @ 12:46 pm: “They’ll dismiss it because she’s not ‘an identifiable group’.”
==============================
They’ll dismiss it because they don’t want another high profile celebrity to show the world what blithering idiots they are.
I hope that the Coulter Caravan continues to confuse, con volute, and craze the leftards!
peter @ 1:59 “PM: Moron though he is it’s too bad Galloway was banned…what’s good for the goose is good for the gander. It just seems chicken sh*t to me.”
People keep saying he was banned. I think that misrepresents the facts. He was advised that he may be arrested if he attempted to enter the country because he and his organization provide financial support to a terrorist organization which is against Canadian law. He decided not to take the chance (which incidentally more or less proves the allegation). To me, that is not “banned” and its certainly not because of his views.
Apparently the young lady the camel comment referred to has a Facebook page that advocates the elimination of Israel according to the radio.
This whole PC confuses me. I am having trouble keeping my victim statuses in any sort of order. Maybe they should print a list and watch the fighting to be at the top.
“The more she speaks, the better it is for the left as she embarrasses even a good segment of moderate conservatives.”
I guess a young lefty giving Ann the finger before she even says a word isn’t embarrassing, the same scum ball stood up and said Heil Hitler when Ezra got a standing ovation. So don’t stand to close behind those “Canadian” values Todd.
They have youth as an excuse I guess.
Chris, condolences to you and your family.
Michael Coren just had Anne Coulter on for an hour on the Shaw CTS channel and he went through the various controversial statements she made. She did well in her replies.
Go Ann Go
DickweaselHoule is only frustated he can never get a catch like Coulter.
Ms. Coulter makes a very good point when she says Michael Moore was not warned about using civility. Maybe he should have been,he said white men are the source of the world’s problems.
After driving for three hours I was happy to get the chance to listen to Levant and Coulter. It was interesting to revisit the speeches through the media filter though. The media could not have possibly been at the same event as I. CTV quotes the Muslim girl as saying that she came with an open mind and had no intention of asking a question.
Funny, she held a piece of paper with the now famous quote and the date it was first published years ago. That tells me that the Muslim girl was either a closet Coulter fan, or was a liar. I won’t make any assumptions though.
Verify.

From Ann’s iphone minutes ago
2000 protesters surrounding building with rocks and sticks — pulled fire alarm in the building. Blogs calling for ann coulter to be hurt. MPs were banned from going, i was denounced by an MP in the parliement today. cops just shut it down!”

Coulter got cancelled in Ottawa. Its all over twitter
Time we got rid of certain Mp’s for good politically. This is an outrage. Remember the names. The groups who stood behind this spasm of anti-democracy next election.
We need to clean house more than Americans it seems. No wonder nothing gets done about the Kangaroo courts in this Country. This Government condones them. Not the CPC Party, but its representatives.
This Country needs a complete overhaul of years of entitlement sickness.
It sounds like there was much cranial airing-out among the leftwardly inclined tonight. Good work, Ann and Ezra!
PiperPaul – speaking of the left and their obscenities, what kind of a classless act was Biden’s comment to the Prez on the dais? He must have known it would be heard in the front rooms of Americans and in front of their children. Let’s face it Obama picked Biden because he knew he would make an excellent house-honkey.
While I am not a Coulter fan, I am a big fan of the “lawfare” she is waging with her HR complain I genuinely hope she files. Such tactics should become SOP for our side!
Kate, you do realize that CFRA is dominated by Conservative voices? I wouldn’t call that a poll gone wrong. Poll gone right is more like it.
Well, a camel is a legitimate form of transportation both ancient and current, and it used in many parts of the world, even non-Arab ones such as Australia and Mongolia. So the fact that she took offense to it is because she WANTED to take offense to it, is that correct? PC etiquette states that you can’t say ‘camel’ to a Muslim in any context – but I guess Ann doesn’t buy into that rule, does she, and simply suggested to her that other forms of transportation are available.
