<...>
In an interview with Simon Conway of iHeart Radio, Coulter expressed her disdain for various accommodations provided for those applying for U.S. citizenship. She began with Spanish-language naturalization ceremonies before moving to criticize the waiving of English tests for immigrants who have been in the U.S. for decades.
But beyond that, Coulter asked, how about the wheelchair-only section? How about the section for the blind? Look, I wish these people well, but were not running an international charity here.
Coulter went on to say that it was insane to allow people in who are going to need taxpayer assistance. She said that instead, immigration policies should only be bringing in those who she described as better than us.

(2,427 posts)She is such a caricature that I wonder if many lend her any credence anymore - well any thinking individual, I guess she is still heralded among some neo-Nazi circles or something.

(115,836 posts)Andy Kaufman-type theatre of the absurd stuff, maybe? Or, more likely, she isn't getting enough attention so she says increasingly outrageous and offensive things. Still, she shouldn't be taken seriously. She's basically just a troll.

(43,049 posts)she finally found her place as a political troll.
I think it was Bill Maher who said that after knowing her personally she wasn't really a bad person, but, yes, this is how she makes her living.

(82,849 posts)That there are some in this country who might slot you in either the "blind" or "disabled" category: You know that, don't you? Maybe it's time for you to get a real job and quit sucking up the wingnut welfare?
