Ann Coulter in Tweet: ‘I Highly Approve of Romney’s Decision to Be Kind & Gentle to the Retard’

Conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter is known for her edgy proclamations and oft-times controversial take on the issues. Last night, while commenting about the final presidential debate, Coulter took to Twitter, where she seemingly used a less-than-complimentary word to describe either debate moderator Bob Schieffer or President Barack Obama — “retard.”

The pundit tweeted, ”I highly approve of Romney’s decision to be kind and gentle to the retard.” While she didn’t explicitly name the individual being targeted, based on the factors at play, one can only assume that it was either Obama or Schieffer.

As of Tuesday morning, the social media message had been re-tweeted (shared) 2,506 times and it was selected as a favorite message by 1,018 people.

Ann Coulter Tweets About Debate, Using Retard to Describe Either Obama or Schieffer

In an article highlighting and deriding the controversial message, Mediaite’s Tommy Christopher wrote that Coulter, “crossed lines of decency untrod even by her standards.”

Politicker also noted that this isn’t the first time the commentator has come under fire for using the word, which many advocates view as an offensive term to people with special needs. A few weeks ago, Dan Niblock, a father of a child with Down syndrome, penned an article on NBC’s “Today” web site, demanding an apology for Coulter’s use of the word in a separate tweet.

“I want Ann Coulter to apologize for using a form of hate speech that is particularly searing to people who have special needs,” Niblock said. “This isn’t about Republicans versus Democrats, it’s about having class and a little decency.”

What do you think about Coulter’s use of the term? Let us know in the comments section.

    This is really the problem with the United States today…we can no longer call a spade “a spade”….because some people are offended by the truth.

    I have seen zero evidence over the past 4 years to suggest that Coulter was wrong in her assessment of Obama’s mental capacity.

      Be careful, the phrase you used there is also potentially very racist in nature. Political correctness has run amok, we can’t even say that’s like the pot calling the kettle something.

      Let’s face it. Obama is one retarded narcissist, as in, “This nation…. ME…. er… my administration.” and he is a bozo… I used to be able to endure his face for a few microseconds watching his daily encounter with the television camera as he spoke nonsense and uttered fabrications – be it on the view proclaiming he is eye-candy, or in the rose garden saying, “terrorist act that was 9/11″and that video he told the UN caused all the Benghazi madness… but no more. I just can’t listen to his lies or bear watching his mediocre curious George imitation – not even for one nanosecond. Obama is washed up.

      Coulter would have done better to use Obama’s non-logical way of thinking and leading as attributes to marijuana usage as a member of the “choom gang” back in the day or as potentially recent as a few days ago in the back closet room of the WH somewhere. The drugs have obviously effected him.This is the first pothead President in the WH, what else can we expect? I guess the bar is so low that we could elect “Smokey” from the movie Friday.

      Fewer jobs, slower growth, more debt and less income has the effect to ****** the whole nation. However, I disagree with her thoughts. Sometimes, you need to get tough with what retards our future.

      @ RobbieTLHughie

      I see what you’re saying. My question is how is this any different from some of the incredibly crass, classless and hateful things pundits on the left have said about the right, and doubled down on it as well? The only difference is that this was said about the POTUS. Some would argue that the office deserves more respect than that, others would say it doesn’t.

      As I look at the posts here the majority of statements are along the lines of “PC’ness has neutered our language and culture.” To that I would completely agree. Nobody can do or say anything without the anxiety of potentially offending somebody. It’s a field day for lawyers and activists only.

      Lastly, why are you here? What else did you expect? Did you really come to a conservative news site and expect to see people condemning Ann Coulter, or people supporting the POTUS? No you didn’t. It’s as foolhardy as me going to an MSNBC blog and expecting to see them supporting Romney.

      Well let’s just all be frank, we are all racist and prejudice, I’m an african american woman ( black) and im prejudice against gays. But my daughter is gay but I believe that god has a plan for everyone’s punishment. As i try to become a true christian I shall not judge. Every president since I have been on this earth has left the bible out of our ruling. so to decide between two greater evils ( one wants war and the non wealthy to suffer) or ( the other one wants to ruin our future finances as well as punk out when we are being bullied) But the people on this site seem to think they can do better, even ann coulter thinks she got this. I wouldnt be able to handle the pres job, i screw up dinner twice a week. its not easy being an american pres. Do you wanna try? for those who think our president is retarded, let us examine your accomplishments, let us all ask ourselves what are we doing to make a mark in this life that will benefit others and not ourself. can you? or are you that jerk that cuts you off on the highway, or that jerk who sees a mom with to many kids and has to put that one thing back in the grocery store because she cant afford it and you won’t pull that extra dollar out your pocket to help.

If axlerod didn’t constantly replay his speeches back to him he would contradict himself even more.
      You can ALWAYS spot stupid liars. Both he and mooseshelle speak slow and deliberate with a lot of umms and ahhhs because neither can think fast enough to stream consciousness. He is positively posing as a scholar when he would barely muster 90 to 100 IQ. No 98th percentile scores there and you can take that to the voting booth.

      I’m one conservative who believes that name-calling is counterproductive. I’ll fight for Ann’s right to say whatever she pleases, and use my own to call her out on it when she uses it to say something that displeases me.
      Ann: there’s no excuse for someone with your intelligence and vocabulary using epithets where you have access to a hundred more descriptive terms to convey your point. It harms our cause when you give the Left more ammo to discredit our ideas just because of your lack of controlling your mouth.

      And now for context: Ann IS the reigning expert on the left’s tactics, which INCLUDE name-calling as a MATTER OF COURSE, and actually doesn’t believe the President’s IQ falls into handicapped range, but rather is playing rope-a-dope with the media who will demonstrate their hypocrisy by seizing on her word-choice while systematically ignoring that of any of the many leftist name-callers out there whose vileness dwarfs her own.

      Well than let’s do that. It is SAD to see Ann Coulter thrash around in an attempt to gain a degree of relevance. She is the writer equivalent of the stripper who claims to be a dancer and the porno queen who thinks they are an actress. Usually when she shares her unique brand of trailer park commentary it is to gain attention in order to promote another worthless book. Fortunately for her there is a Network that accepts and promotes her pitiful level of professionalism and class. For those who claim she is being sarcastic the adage of lying with dogs brings you fleas applies. Ann is who she presents herself to be. The obnoxious girl in class who waves her hand and acts out to get attention. She is a member of a group of TV, radio and commentators who realize you can make a ton of money supply slanted comment to the Belief Entitled. And rarely does this group place much importance on facts, the truth, professionalism or civility. They recognize all too well that the Belief Entitled want to hear and read stories in a biased manner that reflect and reinforce those beliefs. Journalistic integrity, scientific findings, rational analysis are neither desired or required. If you want to see a stark example of the de-evolution of the human species, particularly with regard to rational thought, Ann is a good place to start.

      I agree the intellegence level is questionable in the Obama camap and the media, but I also think that calling someone a ****** is not helpful. Ms Coulter is very intelligent and funny, but she could have used many words that would have gotten her point across that would not be insulting to someone that is not as privaleged as Obama such as Sarah Palin’s son that has Down Syndrome. She could have used ignoramus, lyer, disloyal, fraud, unAmerican, arrogant privaleged thug and probably thousands of other words that she knows that I don’t know to describe him.

      While the word “******” might be offensive to some, it can hardly be accurately described as “hate speech.” It was probably the only word she could think of that wasn’t too obscene to describe her feelings and regardless of whatever word she had used, some clown would have taken offense. It would be hard to express peoples’ feelings if all words offensive to anyone and everyone in the world were removed from use. Anyhow, she wasn’t referring to a real ******, just one who acts like one.

      I think it’s distasteful, but hey, my friends have a child with Down Syndrome; maybe a lot of the people here don’t have the same experience seeing how much these children struggle to get beyond such a label. I found it offensive when Obama said he bowled like he was in the Special Olympics as well (though to be fair, he did apologize right after; one of the only classy things he’s done).

      Ann Coulter is to the far right what Bill Maher is to the far left: funny for those with a chip on their shoulder and who enjoy kindergarten humor. It’s not my cup of tea, but then I was always raised with the timeless Disney movie phrase “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.”

      Definition of ******. transitive verb. 1: to slow up especially by preventing or hindering advance or accomplishment : impede. 2: to delay academic progress by .

      Stop the political correctness crap!
      ————————————————————————————

      This is just evidence that you don’t know the difference between transitive verbs and nouns. That does nothing to help Coulter’s tweet.

    Opinion, speech. Please stop with all the PC stuff. Relax. Enjoy life, and be glad that others have opinions. And relish the though of a new President Romney! Romney showed poise, was informed and brought gravity in the final debate. Obama just came to show that he can act like a tough guy when he has to. That’s not a solution to anything.

    The word is only offensive if used to describe one with a mental handicap. When used to accurately describe the results of a “supposed” normal human, it offers an accurate description of that person’s convoluted performance. Obama is a retarded president. Period. That he also has normal mental capability is quite insulting to me as an american he serves.

    Good tweeting Ann.

      No, it is only NOT offensive when used to refer to someone with MR. It is offensive when used as derogatory name-calling of someone who does not, in fact, have MR.

    I needed a laugh this morning! For whatever reason Romney refused to beat Dear Leader up in last nights debate. It makes no sense because Dear Leader has so very many skeletons in his closet that it’s hard to choose which one to hit him with.

We can even make offensive films! If you don’t like free speech, catch the next camel leaving! ( more free seech) even when politically incorrect. By the way, who is the arbiter of what’s pc or not?

      My thoughts exactly. Obama is pure evil, as are the Clintons, Biden, Pelosi, Reid and so many others who the unsuspecting American people have voted into positions of power. People vote for the name they hear the most, the party they idolize, or any number of silly reasons. I don’t know if I’d have used the word ****** but evil for sure. Anyway, I do like Ann coulter.

    the name calling is out of hand (from both sides). you read it in the news, you read on blogs and it really comes across as childish.

    you can dislike and disagree with someone all you want, but lets leave the name calling on the playground!!

      Whats wrong with it is that name calling is a tactic of the left, and as a father of a special needs child I didnt think those were the ideal words. That being said I still love what Ann has to say and I love her books.

      Awww gee, not happy with that Freedom Of Speech thing? Oh, only when it is you who wants to speak. Why didn’t you just do what ENCINOM does and scream “Hate Speech” and point out the fact that Ann is not PC? Yeah, every time somebody somebody tosses around Hate Speech, it just means they are striking out against Free Speech. The First Amendment does protect speech that is perceived by some as offensive.

      Ya know, if the right wasn’t falling over themselves to look offended over a word, Puff our chests and show how “sensitive” we are, this would have fallen into the Twitter Memory Hole.
      The left loves when we eat our own. Okay, poor choice of words, but Ann is still brilliant.

    Somehow I think Ms. Coulter is giving too much credence to Mr. Soetoro.

    Many mentally challenged individuals hold viable jobs in the private sector in low responsibility positions. Barry never even had that kind of job experience.
