[6] She has homes in New York and Florida. [7] As an undergraduate at Cornell University College of Arts and Sciences, Coulter helped launch a conservative newspaper, The Cornell Review, and was a member of the Delta Gamma national women's fraternity [8]. She graduated cum laude from Cornell in 1984, and received her law degree from the University of Michigan Law School, where she achieved membership in the Order of the Coif (an honor society for academic excellence) and was an editor of The Michigan Law Review. At law school, Coulter shared an apartment with human and civil rights advocate Cindy Cohn, who is now the Legal Director for the Electronic Frontier Foundation. At Michigan, Coulter founded a local chapter of the Federalist Society and was trained at the National Journalism Center.[9] After law school, Coulter clerked for Pasco Bowman II of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, and was an attorney in the Department of Justice Honors Program for outstanding law school graduates. After a short time in private practice in New York City, Coulter worked for the United States Senate Judiciary Committee, where she handled crime and immigration issues for Senator Spencer Abraham of Michigan. She later became a litigator with the Center For Individual Rights in Washington, a public interest law firm dedicated to the defense of individual rights with particular emphasis on freedom of speech, civil rights, and the free exercise of religion. [4] [5] Media career Coulter has described herself as a "polemicist" who likes to "stir up the pot" and makes no pretense at being "impartial or balanced, as broadcasters do." [10] She is known for her expressed opposition to the Democratic Party and of liberalism. One of Coulter's many TV appearances on Hannity & Colmes Coulter writes a weekly legal column in the conservative magazine Human Events in which she discusses judicial rulings, constitutional issues and legal matters affecting Congress and the executive branch. Additionally, her syndicated column for Universal Press Syndicate is carried by many newspapers, and linked to by many conservative websites, including Frontpagemag.com and Townhall.com. Coulter was the subject of a TIME magazine cover story in April 2005 and has made frequent guest appearances on television, including The Today Show, The Tonight Show, Hannity and Colmes, The O'Reilly Factor, American Morning, Crossfire, Real Time, Politically Incorrect, The Daily Show, and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's the fifth estate. Coulter also appeared in FahrenHYPE 9/11, a rebuttal to Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11. In her first appearance in the National Media, Coulter was hired on MSNBC in 1996 as a legal correspondent. She was fired the next year after an exchange with Bobby Muller, president of the anti-war group Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation, during which she said, "No wonder you guys lost." (MSNBC's NewsChat, October 11, 1997) Four years later, as a contributing editor and syndicated columnist at the National Review Online (NRO) Coulter was asked by editors to make changes to a piece written in 2001 soon after the September 11 attacks in which her friend Barbara Olson had been killed. On the national television show Politically Incorrect, Coulter accused NRO of censorship and claimed she was paid $5 per article. NRO dropped her column and terminated her.[11] Jonah Goldberg, editor-at-large of NRO, said, "We did not 'fire' Ann for what she wrote. ... We ended the relationship because she behaved with a total lack of professionalism, friendship, and loyalty".[12] Coulter contracted with USA Today to cover the 2004 Democratic National Convention, but was replaced by Jonah Goldberg after an editing disagreement. She wrote one article that began, "Here at the Spawn of Satan convention in Boston...", and referred to some unspecified female attendees as "corn-fed, no make-up, natural fiber, no-bra needing, sandal-wearing, hirsute, somewhat fragrant hippie chick pie wagons." The newspaper declined to print the article, and Coulter published it instead on her website.[13] On August 28, 2005, Coulter's syndicated column was dropped by the Tucson newspaper Arizona Daily Star. David Stoeffler, the editor and publisher said, "We've decided that syndicated columnist Ann Coulter has worn out her welcome. Many readers find her shrill, bombastic and mean-spirited. And those are the words used by readers who identified themselves as conservatives."[14] Despite this sentiiment, Editor & Publisher magazine wrote that she "hasn't lost any of her 100-plus newspaper clients, or the support of her syndicate, Universal Press Syndicate," despite the swirl of negative press that has accompanied the release of her latest and most controversial book, Godless. [6] In 2000 she considered running for the U. S. Congress from Connecticut on the Libertarian Party ticket to serve as a spoiler in order to throw the seat to the Democratic candidate and see that Republican Congressman Christopher Shays failed to gain re-election, as a punishment for Shays' voting against the impeachment of President Bill Clinton. The leadership of the Libertarian Party of Connecticut, after meeting with Coulter, declined to endorse her. As a result, her self-described "total sham, media-intensive, third-party Jesse Ventura campaign" [7] [8] did not take place. Bibliography Coulter on the cover of her book Godless.

Controversies Ann Coulter, as a self-described polemicist, has made a successful career out of creating controversy. Although she is in constant demand on the US lecture circuit[9] and has had a string of best-selling books, her style troubles some in her audience, including fellow Conservatives. Arnold Beichman reviewed her book Treason in the Washington Times, writing that he "tried to read Miss Coulter's book and failed. Life is too short to read pages and pages of rant."[15] Al Franken calls both her published and spoken presentations biased, offensive, and inflammatory, claiming they contain misinterpreted facts that put her credibility in question.[16][17] Coulter responded to these and similar criticisms in an article called "Answering my Critics", saying that she prides herself on the copious footnotes in her books which she claims back up her statements.[18] Portrait of Ann Coulter on the cover of Time Magazine. Coulter claims this image has been manipulated.[19] Coulter has been the subject of several protests when speaking on college campuses. On one occasion, during an appearance at University of Arizona, a pie was thrown at her, missing her.[20] In another instance, Coulter was heckled while speaking at a crowd of 2,600 at the University of Connecticut to the point that she ended her speech early and began to take questions from the audience accompanied by the remark, "I love to engage in repartee with people who are stupider than I am." [21] At an 2006 appearance at Indiana University, Bloomington, in a speech entitled "Liberals Are Wrong About Everything", she told the ideologically diverse audience, "Liberals hate both God and America." Audience members supporting and opposing Coulter reportedly broke out into altercations during the speech and had to be removed by ushers, whom she reportedly mocked. During the Q&A session at the end of this speech, a male protestor with an effeminate voice took the microphone and inquired as to whether Coulter's hatred of democrats means that she would prefer a dictatorship; Coulter replied: "You don't want the Republicans in power, does that mean you want a dictatorship, gay boy?" [22] Coulter sparked more controversycitation needed] with comments about kente cloth and slavery. She illustrated her argument that it is wrong to condemn the Confederate flag on the grounds that it was a symbol of slavery by writing: "And why does native African kente cloth get a free pass [from liberals]? It is a historical fact that American slaves were purchased from their slave masters in Africa, where slavery exists in some parts to this day. Indeed, slavery is the only African institution America has ever adopted. But while some Americans express pride in their slave-trading ancestors by calling themselves "African-Americans" and donning African garb, pride in Confederate ancestors is deemed a hate crime.citation needed] Investigation of alleged voting irregularity Coulter is under investigation by election officials in Florida for filing an inaccurate voter registration form in June 2005 and knowingly voting in the wrong precinct, a felony in Florida. Government documents indicate she provided her local real estate agent's address (which was a few miles away in the same town) instead of her own home address. On March 29, 2006, the Palm Beach Post reported that elections officials had given Coulter 30 days to explain the inaccuracy. According to one news account, poll worker Jim Whited recalled that Coulter tried to vote in the February 7, 2006, town council election at Bethesda-by-the-Sea, where she should have been voting based on her actual address. Although Coulter initially tried to vote in that proper location, Coulter left that precinct as soon as Whited began to explain to her that someone with her registration address could not use that voting precinct. She then cast her ballot at the precinct where she was registered, which was actually the incorrect location for someone having her actual street address. [23] Coulter on domestic separatists Coulter has frequently criticized the government's handling of radical separatists. She described members of the Branch Davidians as "harmless American citizens"[24] after the bulk of the group was immolated in an ATF raid. Likewise, she berates what she calls the "unprovoked government assault" and "murder" at Ruby Ridge.[25] When later asked by John Hawkins if she regretted a statement she made implying that she wished Timothy McVeigh had bombed the New York Times instead of the Federal building in Oklahoma City, Coulter replied: "Of course I regret it. I should have added, 'after everyone had left the building except the editors and reporters.'"[26] While acknowledging that "Coulter jokes about McVeigh blowing up the Times," Eric Alterman of The Nation still found the comment offensive, calling Coulter a "terrorist apologist" and an "ideological comrade" of McVeigh due to what he considers to be similar statements the two have made about the Waco and Ruby Ridge incidents.[27] Coulter on Arabs and Muslims Coulter has made several comments regarding Arabs and Muslims. In an article written a day after the September 11, 2001 attacks (in which her friend Barbara Olson was killed), she wrote, "Airports scrupulously apply the same laughably ineffective airport harassment to Suzy Chapstick as to Muslim hijackers. It is preposterous to assume every passenger is a potential crazed homicidal maniac. We know who the homicidal maniacs are. They are the ones cheering and dancing right now. We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war."[28] In describing the ability of reporters to get passes to White House press conferences, Coulter speculated that they must be easy to acquire since the "White House allows that old Arab Helen Thomas to sit within yards of the president." Helen Thomas is a White House reporter of Syrian ancestry.[29] Coulter has referred to the Middle East as a "swamp"[30] in reference to the metaphor "Drain the Swamp" and advocated racial profiling on airliners.[31][32] Later, in an interview with the British Guardian newspaper, Coulter quipped: "I think airlines ought to start advertising: 'We have the most civil rights lawsuits brought against us by Arabs.'" When asked what Muslims should do for travel, she responded that they "could use flying carpets."[33] On February 10, 2006, the audience at the Conservative Political Action Conference applauded her when she referred to Muslim terrorists as "ragheads" and said, "I think our motto should be, post-9-11: raghead talks tough, raghead faces consequences." [10] [11] Coulter has described Muslims as "camel jockey", "jihad monkey", and "tent merchant", and joked about the offensiveness of these remarks.[34] She wrote in her column, in response to the riots stemming from the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy: "The amazing part of the great Danish cartoon caper isn't that Muslims immediately engage in acts of mob violence when things don't go their way. That is de rigueur for the Religion of Peace. Their immediate response to all bad news is mass violence. That's a "dog bites man" story and belongs on page B-34, next to the grade school hot lunch menu and the birth notices. After an Egyptian ferry capsized recently, killing hundreds of passengers, a whole braying mob of passengers' relatives staged an organized attack on the company, throwing furniture out the window and burning the building to the ground. Witnesses say it was the most violent ocean liner-related incident since Carnival Cruise Lines fired Kathie Lee Gifford. The 'offense to Islam' ruse is merely an excuse for Muslims to revert to their default mode: rioting and setting things on fire."[34] Coulter on women "I think the other point that no one is making about the [Abu Ghraib] abuse photos is just the disproportionate number of women involved, including a girl general running the entire operation. I mean, this is lesson, you know, number 1,000,047 on why women shouldn't be in the military. In addition to not being able to carry even a medium-sized backpack, women are too vicious." - appearing on Hannity & Colmes, 5 May, 2004 "Conservatives have a problem with women. For that matter, all men do." – Cornell Review, 1984, as reported in Time, April 2005 "I think [women] should be armed but should not vote...women have no capacity to understand how money is earned. They have a lot of ideas on how to spend it...it's always more money on education, more money on child care, more money on day care." - appearing on the comedy show Politically Incorrect, February 26, 2001 "Like the Democrats, Playboy just wants to liberate women to behave like pigs, have sex without consequences, prance about naked, and abort children." - How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must), 2004 Coulter on Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens Speaking at Philander Smith College in Little Rock, Arkansas, on January 26, 2006, Coulter said of United States Supreme Court Justice Stevens: "We need somebody to put rat poisoning in Justice Stevens' crème brûlée. That's just a joke, for you in the media."[35][36] Coulter's role in Paula Jones - Bill Clinton controversy Coulter debuted as a public figure shortly before becoming an unpaid legal advisor for the attorneys representing Paula Jones in her sexual harassment suit against President Bill Clinton. Coulter disagreed with the lead lawyer, Joseph Cammaratta, who advised Jones that her case was weak and to settle it. (Daley, 1999) From the onset, Jones had sought an apology from Clinton at least as eagerly as she sought a settlement.[37] However, Coulter said she believed the case was strong, that Jones was telling the truth, that Clinton should be held publicly accountable for his misconduct, and that a settlement would give the impression that Jones was merely interested in extorting money from the President. (Daley, 1999) David Daley, who wrote the interview piece for the Hartford Courant recounted what followed:     Coulter played one particularly key role in keeping the Jones case alive. In Newsweek reporter Michael Isikoff's new book Uncovering Clinton: A Reporter's Story, Coulter is unmasked as the one who leaked word of Clinton's "distinguishing characteristic" — his reportedly bent penis that Jones said she could recognize and describe — to the news media. Her hope was to foster mistrust between the Clinton and Jones camps and forestall a settlement... I thought if I leaked the distinguishing characteristic it would show bad faith in negotiations. [Clinton lawyer] Bob Bennett would think Jones had leaked it. Cammaratta would know he himself hadn't leaked it and would get mad at Bennett. It might stall negotiations enough for me to get through to [Jones adviser] Susan Carpenter-McMillan to tell her that I thought settling would hurt Paula, that this would ruin her reputation, and that there were other lawyers working for her. Then 36 hours later, she returned my phone call. I just wanted to help Paula. I really think Paula Jones is a hero. I don't think I could have taken the abuse she came under. She's this poor little country girl and she has the most powerful man she's ever met hitting on her sexually, then denying it and smearing her as president. And she never did anything tacky. It's not like she was going on TV or trying to make a buck out of it.(1999)     Coulter also told Isikoff, "We were terrified that Jones would settle. It was contrary to our purpose of bringing down the President." [12] The case went to court after Jones broke with Coulter and her original legal team, and was summarily dismissed. The judge ruled that even if her allegations proved true, Jones did not show that she had suffered any damages, stating "plaintiff has not demonstrated any tangible job detriment or adverse employment action for her refusal to submit to the governor's alleged advances. The president is therefore entitled to summary judgment on plaintiff's claim of quid pro quo sexual harassment", and dismissed the case. Clinton settled with Jones for $850,000 in exchange for not appealing the decision. The Jones lawsuit led to the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal. Coulter wrote a book critical of Clinton called High Crimes and Misdemeanors: The Case Against Bill Clinton. Coulter on the four 9/11 widows known as "the Jersey Girls" In her book, Godless: The Church of Liberalism, Coulter criticizes the four 9/11 widows known as the "Jersey Girls", writing that they abused their status as widows by acting as partisans to push for the 9/11 Commission, to harshly criticize the G.W. Bush administration and its security policies, and to campaign for presidential candidate John Kerry. The partisan activities of the "Jersey Girls" have been documented by other observers. [13][14] [15]. In a long chapter titled "Liberal Doctrine of Infallibility: Sobbing Hysterical Women," Coulter argues that one of liberalism's proselytizing techniques is to choose "people with 'absolute moral authority' - Democrats with a dead husband, a dead child, a wife who works at the CIA, a war record, [or] a terminal illness..." as spokespersons to advance political goals. Doing so stifles a rational debate of the policy being advanced, according to Coulter, since "you can't respond to them because that would be questioning the authenticity of their suffering." She lists a catalogue of such persons, including grieving mom and anti-war acitivst Cindy Sheehan, gun-control activist Carolyn McCarthy, paralyzed actor and embyonic stem-cell activist Christopher Reeve, disabled Vietnam veteran and anti-Iraq-war activist Max Cleland, and the four Jersey Girls, about whom she wrote: "These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzis. These self-obsessed women seemed genuinely unaware that 9/11 was an attack on our nation and acted as if the terrorist attacks happened only to them. ... I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much ... the Democrat ratpack gals endorsed John Kerry for president ... cutting campaign commercials... how do we know their husbands weren't planning to divorce these harpies? Now that their shelf life is dwindling, they'd better hurry up and appear in Playboy." (from Godless, pages 100-112) Coulter's description of these women has garnered criticism, some of it invoking the memory of the women's tragically deceased husbands. The day after the book was released, Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY) called Coulter's charge a "vicious, mean-spirited attack", suggesting that Coulter's book should have been titled Heartless. [38] [39] Coulter later responded to Senator Clinton: "Before criticizing others for being 'mean' to women, perhaps Hillary should talk to her husband who was accused of rape by Juanita Broaddrick and was groping Kathleen Willey at the very moment Willey's husband was committing suicide."[40] Former Clinton Administration staffer [16] and now Congressman Rahm Emanuel (D-IL) criticized Coulter on the floor of the House, [17] and Tim Roemer, a member of the 9/11 Commission and a former Democratic congressman, also condemned Coulter's statements.[41] She has consistently defended her words and makes no apologies, even goading her critics by repeating her criticism of the Jersey Girls in subsequent columns: "If you're upset about what I said about the Witches of East Brunswick, try turning the page. Surely, I must have offended more than those four harpies." [18][19] [42] Coulter and Christianity Coulter is known for openly professing her religious beliefs. At one public lecture she proclaimed her faith in Jesus Christ, saying: "I don't care about anything else: Christ died for my sins and nothing else matters." [20] [21] Time magazine's John Cloud reported that he attended a service at Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City with Coulter, where she worships and often brings guests. [43] When asked during an interview about the morality of non-marital sex, she replied: "Christians are the most tolerant people in the world - because we know there's original sin. We know people do bad things. But it seems to me it's a much worse thing to go around saying that it isn't a sin to commit a sin. I mean - at least feel guilty about it." [22] She has stated that her Christian faith "fuels everything" [23] she writes, and that it particularly fuels her book Godless. In that book, Coulter says in a footnote, "Throughout this book, I often refer to Christians and Christianity because I am a Christian and I have a fairly good idea of what they believe, but the term is intended to include anyone who subscribes to the Bible of the God of Abraham, including Jews and others." Coulter has stated: "Although my Christianity is somewhat more explicit in this book [Godless], Christianity fuels everything I write. Being a Christian means that I am called upon to do battle against lies, injustice, cruelty, hypocrisy — you know, all the virtues in the church of liberalism."

Some view them as hyperbole or satire, while others take them more literally: Wikiquote has a collection of quotations related to: Ann Coulter "Taxes are like abortion, and not just because both are grotesque procedures supported by Democrats. You're for them or against them. Taxes go up or down; government raises taxes or lowers them. But Democrats will not let the words abortion or tax hikes pass their lips." - Her syndicated column, 2/21/2002 "The ethic of conservation is the explicit abnegation of man's dominion over the Earth. The lower species are here for our use. God said so: Go forth, be fruitful, multiply, and rape the planet — it's yours. That's our job: drilling, mining and stripping. Sweaters are the anti-Biblical view. Big gas-guzzling cars with phones and CD players and wet bars — that's the Biblical view."[44]. "I have to say I'm all for public flogging. One type of criminal that a public humiliation might work particularly well with are the juvenile delinquents, a lot of whom consider it a badge of honor to be sent to juvenile detention. And it might not be such a cool thing in the 'hood to be flogged publicly." — MSNBC March 22, 1997 "Liberals hate America, they hate flag-wavers, they hate abortion opponents, they hate all religions except Islam, post 9/11. Even Islamic terrorists don't hate America like liberals do. They don't have the energy. If they had that much energy, they'd have indoor plumbing by now." — (from Slander, pp. 5–6; published June 2002) "The Times was rushing to assure its readers that 'prominent Islamic scholars and theologians in the West say unequivocally that nothing in Islam countenances the Sept. 11 actions.' (That's if you set aside Muhammad's many specific instructions to kill nonbelievers whenever possible.)" — How to Talk to a Liberal, 2004. "The tolerant liberal suddenly becomes very intolerant when their official religion is challenged."— June 06, 2006 [45] "Ozzy Osbourne has his bats, and I have that darn "convert them to Christianity" quote. Some may not like what I said, but I'm still waiting to hear a better suggestion." - (from Treason, published 2003) Trivia Coulter says she is a fan of the rock band Grateful Dead, and appeared on the pop culture channel VH1's now-defunct series My Coolest Years, about high school experiences, to discuss her years as a Deadhead. Coulter recently did an interview on jambands.com regarding her love for the Grateful Dead, in which she mentions, among other things, smearing herself with purple Crisco at Fiji Island before a Dead show, going sailing before seeing the Grateful Dead at Shoreline Amphitheatre, and seeing them in "a very patriotic experience" on the Fourth of July in Bonner Springs, Kansas. [25] The punk rock band NOFX refers mockingly to Coulter in their song "You're Wrong" on the Never Trust a Hippy EP and their 7" of the Month Club. [26]. According to one source, Coulter supports Indiana Representative Mike Pence for President of the United States in the 2008 election.[22] Coulter is fond of wearing short skirts.
