I am Ann Coulter
Today would have been the day I posted the last in my series on men, titled, “In Danger From The Outside World.” But, I’ve had to postpone because several events have occurred in the last two weeks that have prompted me to make this announcement:
I am Ann Coulter.
That’s right. She and I are the same person.
Look - this chart (Chart I) will prove it:

Though this chart does not show much similarity, if you look at our photos, you will see that Ann and I are wearing a similar beige, sleeveless blouse.
Therefore, because we have this one thing in common, Ann and I are identical.
Have I proven that point?
I hope not.
Now look at this chart (Chart II) :

My question is this: If you don’t believe me when I say that Ann Coulter and I are one and the same, because we have beige blouses in common, why do we believe Ann Coulter when she claims to be ‘Christian,’ just because she has one thing in common with real Christians, which is, that she believes Jesus Christ is the Lord? After that, she deviates from Christian doctrine remarkably.
One cannot be a Christian “conservatively.” It’s all or nothing. Either one believes Jesus Christ is the Lord and Saviour and follows His Teachings (see Chart II) or one is not really a Christian.
You might ask, why do people say they’re Christians and try to get us to believe it, when they really aren’t Christians? The answer is the “Playground Principle.”
On a playground, it’s always the weakest kid who gets picked on. In order to protect himself, he has to have a tough, intimidating mouth, or another really big kid on his side.
Well, who’s a bigger kid than God?
The idea that we can annihilate all our enemies by invading their countries and/or taking over their governments is such a weak idea that it needs a big mouth and God backing it up, in an attempt to be impressive. That’s what these so-called “Conservative Christians” - I will coin a new term here and call them “Coulter Christians” because it’s much more appropriate - are attempting to do. By telling us that we are “idiots,” or “sick” or “ridiculous” because we see the weakness behind this methodology and by saying they have ‘God’ on their side, they are trying to intimidate us.
It also serves another purpose. Divisionist tactics and power in numbers. If we take Coulter Christians at their word that they really are Christians, we begin to view Christianity itself with disdain. That disparaging attitude puts true Christians everywhere on the defensive. For an example of this, I invite you to read this heartfelt post.
By deriding all Christians, we're no better than those who hate all Muslims.
How can we tell the difference between ‘true Christians’ and ‘Coulter Christians?’ To quote Jesus of Nazareth again, “by the fruit they bear.”
Here is an example of the fruit that true Christianity bears:
The lovely young woman in this photo is IrishLuckylass, pictured here with her two lucky children. They’re lucky because she is their mother. I read this Lass’s blog almost every day, no matter how busy I get, because it’s an inspiration to me. She doesn’t write about world-shaking events, she writes about her life and how much she appreciates it, her children and how devoted she is to them. She writes about trying in all the ways she knows to be a good mother, a good daughter, a productive, loving human being.
IrishLuckyLass has had more than a fair share of trials in her life. But you might be tempted to dismiss them, because no matter what tragic thing has happened to her, she writes about finding, if not some good in it or some lesson to be learned, then at least some humour in it, as though bad fortune came her way so she could turn it into a good story for us all. Her Christianity has not made her bitter, angry or vengeful. Quite the contrary, the worst thing I’ve ever heard her say in her writings about the man she loved who betrayed her and his two remarkably beautiful children with her, is to call him (and I love this) “ass hat.”
When I asked her once how she managed to survive abandonment by her father, then a rape, followed by the desertion of her husband, (and more), she told me, “It’s my faith.”
Oh, but wait - she sometimes votes Republican!
So what?
Coulter Christians are no more true Republicans than they are true Christians.
Here is an example of the fruit “Synthetic Republican,” “Coulter Christian” mindset bears:
We all know who the man in this photo is. The following are quotes from his speeches and writings and you’ll find them remarkably like Ann Coulter’s and those of some other so-called Christians we know: (Replace the word ‘Jew’ for ‘Arab’ or ‘Muslim’)
1. “I am now as before a Catholic and will always remain so.” ---from John Toland's Biography, Adolf Hitler
2.“Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord.” ---Mein Kampf
3.“My feeling as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded only by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter…..How terrific was his fight against the Jewish poison. Today, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed his blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice.” ---Mein Kampf
4. “We were convinced that the people needs and requires this faith. We have therefore undertaken the fight against the atheistic movement, and that not merely with a few theoretical declarations: we have stamped it out.” ( in a speech delivered in Berlin October 24, 1933)
5. Thus inwardly armed with confidence in God and the unshakable stupidity of the voting citizenry, the politicians can begin the fight for the ‘remaking’ of the Reich.” --Mein Kampf
6.“For this, to be sure, from the child's primer down to the last newspaper, every theater and every movie house, every advertising pillar and every billboard, must be pressed into the service of this one great mission, until the timorous prayer of our present parlor patriots: ‘Lord, make us free!’ is transformed in the brain of the smallest boy into the burning plea: ‘Almighty God, bless our arms when the time comes; be just as thou hast always been; judge now whether we be deserving of freedom; Lord, bless our battle!’”---Mein Kampf
Have I made my point?
I hope so.
Because if we can’t see the difference between those who say they’re Christians and those who act like Christians, just because they’re both wearing the same blouse, then I really am Ann Coulter.
And she’s going to be plenty ticked off when my new credit card applications go through.

(((((hugs & kisses)))) I LOVE THIS POST!!!!!
You sure did make your point! And eloquently, if I may add. :-)
What a great post!
Even my husband, who I'm sad to report is a Republican, despises Ann Coulter. This is saying a lot. ;-)
The very sad fact is that the loud-mouth Christians are the ones who get all the attention and press, and the ones who also have (or had, anyway) enough strength to band together and sway government policy through elections. The real Christians, people like AmyH and Shush Now here on Vox, aren't busy ramming their ideologies down people's throats or even posting about how they heart being Christians. They're just good, kind people living good lives. And the fundamentalist Christians are also the ones who can't see just how closely they resemble the militant fundamentalist Muslims they want to exterminate/defeat/stamp out.
And I wonder, why can't humans just strive to be good people without adding a religious label?
First - I am sooooo flattered to have a starring role in one of your amazingly written blogs Patricia. I admire your point of view on so many things, and always learn something when I come here to read. Thank you my friend.
Second - you are so right about A.C.... she is just the type that makes me angry on so many levels as a christian. Christian is not synonomous with "perfect" or "the voice of God"... it's being faithful and obediant and tolerant. It can be as simple and complicated as that.
Thanks again for such kind words. :o)
I second what everyone else who has already commented said.
"And I wonder, why can't humans just strive to be good people without adding a religious label? "
That's a million dollar question, isn't it? I've known some people who say they are atheists, but have more religious values than some who go to worship every week.
thank you for asking -- !!
If you're intersted in the other sites, they're in my links-- a couple of them are just silly stuff
she is so ignorant.
great post again, as usual. :)
I wasn't fooled for a moment!
I'm thankful you and Ann are not the same person. I'd have to stop respecting you if you were Ann, and that would make me sad.
No, I don't think it's "bad," I think it's smart. I am not really sure if she actually belives any of what she's saying, but she knows it'll make a buck. She gets more making appaearances than she does writing columns. She also dated one of the sleaziest politcians I've ever had the displeasure to interview. I found it ironic ebcause she talks about Judaism the same way she talks about everything else that's non "Christian" and he was Jewish. They were cut from the same cloth. Anyway, this post is really not totally about her per say, but about the idea of certain people hiding behind "Christianity" to make other people with different opinions than theirs feel bad.
Hee hee. It's irreverent, I know, but you just reminded me of Mae West's old line, "When I'm good, I'm very good, but when I'm bad I'm better."
Uh- oh. I must be getting hungry. Time to log off and eat dinner. : )
You have restored my faith in Christians (well the nice ones at least).
Moslems and Christians both suffer from the brush tarred by their respective radicals.
Thankyou.
I found this blog listed in the Recently Favorites list. I'm quite glad I did.
Oh, I'm sure you're worth her time. But (sigh) you know- it's just so hard to please you. First I read over at your blog you'd like to see me post something political. Now you want something lighthearted. On the other hand, you did say I was prettier than Ann, so you're still in my good books. ; )
if you don't mind, send me the post when you write about the Dog Whisperer. I have been getting behind on reading since I'm on deadline this month and I don't want to miss that one. It sounds very interesting.
Thank you Peter.
"Moslems and Christians both suffer from the brush tarred by their respective radicals."
That's the truth and we all sometimes have trouble seeing past the ends of our noses.
You're much hotter than Ann Coulter.
I try to remember Matthew 6:5, when considering the public Christians of the world:
[5] And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
The true Nike flutters over the pathetic figure of Coulter and blows away the facade like sending a dandy lion seed on its way.
You're a very poetic, descriptive writer. And I read your comment on my previous post about the Greek community in Australia. That hit home. I lived in a community of Greek Americans when I was married to my Greek national husband. (My background is not Greek. Though there is probably some Greek ancestry because my father was Italian born from Sicily. My mother's parents were also born in Italy. I was born in the US and lived over seas for a number of years)
Anyway, you said they were "more Greek than the Greeks" There is a Greek siege mentality no doubt, stemming from their history of being conquered endlessly.It's also an interesting phenomenon with first-generations everywhere that they make a subcultiure of their own. I experienced it myself growing up. It's mind-boggling, because you never feel part of either group and it seems that most people do want to feel like they beloing to a particular group, in order to have an 'identity.' I've never undestood it, but I've come across it over and over again.
Wow! Tawdry sex and grumpy political rants?! I've been missing all this since I starting rewriting six weeks ago? I've got to come over there today!
Seriously,though, all your posts are intriguing, because you take a subject which has been discussed before and put your own unique spin on it. And I do want to come over and visit, because I haven't been keeping up with my neighbourhood as regularly as I ordinarily do. It's been a tough two months of work, but I think this will do it (fingers crossed) I'm almost there. I probably need about another week of intense work to complete it. Having said that, as soon as I'm done here, I'm coming over ot have a look at what you've been up to.
I see the same over and over again here too. I would never have guessed you were Italian with black eyes 5'3 ft and a name like Volonakis :) Thanks for writing this very entertaining article,
I would never have guessed you were Italian with black eyes 5'3 ft and a name like Volonakis :)
I look very typically southern Italian. In fact, when I was there a few years back, it was a bit disconcerting to see how many women looked like me. I saw myself coming and going everywhere.
I was married for many years to a Greek national. I lived in Greece with him. Much of my early writing is published under my married name- Patricia Volonakis, so I kept it for professional reasons and because my son was only eleven when I divorced his father. I didn't like the idea of not having the same family name as my child when he was still in school. I wanted the teachers to know whose mother it was attending all those meetings and keeping an annoying eye on things : ) When I remarried to a wonderful man, I didn't like the idea of carrying only my ex's name and not my new husband's, either. So I use both married names for both professional and personal reasons. There are several authors named Patricia Davis, also. There's even a male writer,Patrick Davis. I figure this differentiates me a bit.
Heck, yes. Especially because what these people want is the attention, negative or otherwise. So I try to practice your philosophy and I achieve it well...if not all the time, at least most of the time. BTW-
Happy Valentine's Day!
"The Root of all Evil finds its Incubatory Refuge in All that is Perceived to Be Good". The evil lies in 'Perceived'. The quest continues.
Your article definitely begs a re-read by myself.
Thanks Pat,
ed
I agree with your comment wholeheartedly. I tried to make your point in a humourous way in this post If you have a moment to read it, I'd be curious to see what you think. Thank you for your comment here. I really enjoyed it.
I love reading your posts, it is my pleasure.
I mean seriously no-one could really behave like that and be taken seriously, ............ could they?
I know you know the answer to this question I am about to propose and so do most reasonable thinking people. I would just like to say, I am so glad that there are reasonable thinking Americans, because what we (citizens of other countries) see from the outside looking in, is very scary indeed.
Do you know what the difference is between what Coulter and her kind rants against? i.e. they rant against "Islamofascism"
There really is only ONE difference and that is the 'religion' that they claim to follow. The means of killing may be different, but the underlying sentiment is still the same.
When people proclaim, "Where are the Muslims denouncing the killing done in the name of Islam?"
My counter claim is that we too as Christians and non-Christians need to stand up against the people who behave like, Ann Coulter, Pat Robertson, John Hagee and others like them, people who are Christian Zionists. These people are trying to cause a collision between the US and the Middle East with Israel as their prize and they are not concerned with who gets hurt along the way.
Anyway, I was hoping to post some things on my own blog, but unfortunately at the moment due to my health I haven't the time and the energy. If anyone is interested this is a good website: http://www.christianzionism.org
A quote from their site:
Thanks for the post Patricia and I hope you didn't mind me having my rant.
Wow! Heck no - rant away! Not ony that, I am thrilled to hear about the website.I had no idea that there was an actual counter movement to this stuff. What a relief. I'll check it out right away.
I want to reiterate if I may, that the United States is made up of 300 million people. That's a lot of people and we are not a homogenous society either. Ann Coulter is not representative of most of us any more than is Jerry Falwell or for that matter, Code Pink. These people are on the lunatic fringe, but they're loud and they are publicity whores. The rest of us average Americans have no time for their nonsense. We go to work, we care for our families and our communites, we read about other peoples and countries with compassion and interest and we struggle everyday against the same things in our country that you read about. Our health care system needs to be rehauled,(brought to my attention today again by Snowy) our education system needs scrutiny, and we need to come up with ways to outwit our electoral college and our senators who can be in Congress for life(A very bad policy) I think it's true there is an underlying ethnocentricity and a bit of xenophobia now and again, but that is changing with the younger generations here, thanks to the internet. I know my sons are playing poker online with people from all over the world. It sounds like a small silly thing, but it's hard to think of someone as an enemy when you'e been up all night chatting with him whilst playing cards. Same goes for the music industry. Another son, a musician, has 'myspace friends' from everywhere, who love his music.These are just two examples. VOX is a third. Now you know why China tries to censor interaction on the web. Familiarity doesn't breed contempt- it breeds friendliness and understanding.
Have a great weekend over your way :)
By the way Patricia, Snowy doesn't lie.
Actually I am one of those 'unfortunates' who goes grey early in life, it runs very strongly in my family. My Nanna, my Mum, myself and my two brothers all succumbed. At the age of 41, I would be salt and pepper at the moment. My Mum was virtually white at my age. Actually I read it is now sexy to be grey - hmmmm I wonder?
Anyway I decided I would go grey gracefully and just accept it and I did until I turned 40 and I always said if I ever dyed my hair it would not be 'normal' and I guess it isn't. It would actually look normal if I didn't have grey hair, but because I do have grey hair the purple stands out very well. Nice and bright. I did have to tone it down for my son's wedding though ;-)
So anyway just so we stay on topic, I guess my purple hair means I am NOT Ann Coulter - what a shame ;-P
I was joking when I compared your hair to my gran's. I knew what Snowy meant.
I live in Marin County. Not too far from San Francisco, where purple hair, bright purple, is as common as pink, or green, or brunette. So it wouldn't shock me much and on some, it's really quite attractive. To stay on topic, as you point out, if Ann were out here in seriously liberal territory, 'Code Pink,' another sort of group who doesn't help our overseas image much, would probably have her lynched. She's wise to stay out of this part of the Golden State. ; )
You know what really annoys me? Yes I am going to tell you. So I am glad you asked.
Well I am a liberal, something I didn't realise until coming to Vox - Yes I needed to be told! We don't really make that big a deal about it over here in Oz.
Anyway I did a poll/quiz just to make sure I was a liberal, because well they could have been lying to me for all I knew. The results came back that in most areas yes I was a liberal, but overall I was 75% liberal and 25% conservative. I know terrible I was shattered - I was partly conservative, well who would have thought given the 'treatment' I had been given because I WAS a liberal. Well actually it wasn't a surprise to me that I was partly conservative, because as you will be aware generally most of us are along a spectrum in our views.
I am so sick of people being judged purely based on being a liberal, the way some people carry on it is as if anyone with the slightest hint of being a bit liberal is automatically put in the category of "Code Pink". Also it is used as an argument tool, "Oh yes but those are liberal views" and they believe that is a valid means of debate, as if it is a 'fact' and they don't need to supply any real facts to support their argument. Huh?
Also apparently being a liberal automatically makes a person a communist????? Also liberals have some hidden agenda where we are indoctrinating Americans with a vision of turning it into a communist state! As if that would ever happen!
Where does this 'rational' line of thinking come from. Well apparently because 'we' would like evolution to be taught in science classes. Also many universities tend to be a bit liberal/left leaning - wow shock horror, is this a new phenomena? I don't think so - rather normal actually and it has been that way from at least the 1960s onwards and probably before. The problem is in my humble opinion, some people have swung so far to the right that anything even centre in the political spectrum now looks as if it has leftist leanings.
So that is my rant for the night. I really should be quiet now :)
I feel much better.
I'm clearly late to this party, but another beautifully written and well-thought-out post. You really had me fooled with that beige shirt!
I'd like to say that I am not a Christian, but I know exactly what you mean about putting Christians on the defensive. I mean, lately, I have been appalled at the bigotry of certain, extremist types (if you can use "Coulter Christians" can I use "Dawkins atheists" or "Hitchens atheists"?) on the left. I don't much care for bigotry, whatever label it's hiding behind, and I really dislike the tones of moral superiority adopted by both sides. I don't think you can fight hate with hate, so I am so happy to see this post.
I really dislike the tones of moral superiority adopted by both sides
I think it's appropriate here to say, "Amen" to that! What all of us have not yet realised is that by our own voluntary divisiveness- be it Christians and athiests on opposite sides or liberals and conservatives, the politicians are pulling the wool over our eyes, all sides, all colours, all sexes, all shapes, while we're sniping at each other. They've discovered this giant red herring that's kept us all occupied for the last two presidencies, here in the US at least. In the meantime the country is in turmoil and we too busy fighting with each other, being 'morally superior; as you say, to see it.
And I'd like you to know I enjoy your posts, too. They make me think and I'm glad we fond each other's blogs.
I know exactly what you mean, but calling her a Republican is like calling Code Pink 'democrats.' Help! (Sigh) The lunatic fringe is taking over the airwaves....
My problem with all Xtians is exactly what you said...if you call yourself that then you should supposedly act as Jesus prescribed.
And I don't know anyone who does or even could.
So I'm not sure there is even a single christian anywhere.
