Ann Coulter on Illegals

1. Ann Coulter: Have Illegals Build Border Wall

Firebrand author Ann Coulter has an answer for illegal immigration apologists who say it's simply too expensive to build a wall across the entire U.S.-Mexican border: Hire illegal aliens already in the U.S. to help with the construction.

Asked how she would solve the illegal immigration problem, Coulter told Fox News Channel's Bill O'Reilly on Thursday: "I'd build a wall. In fact, I'd hire illegal immigrants to build the wall."

Coulter told O'Reilly that she also favors deporting illegal aliens wherever they turn up, noting that immigration authorities missed a perfect opportunity to get a head start on the effort with the recent wave of pro-illegal protests.

"We could have done it very easily in the last week," she explained. "You could have just sent paddy wagons to the protests."

As outrageous as Coulter's comments may seem, her views on illegal immigration are firmly in the mainstream of U.S. public opinion.

A Time magazine poll released last weekend showed 56 percent of those surveyed support building a wall along the entire 2,000-mile Mexican border. Just 40 percent opposed.

Even on the question of deporting illegal immigrants, Coulter is in the majority. Asked whether the U.S. would be better off if "all illegals" were deported, 51 percent of Americans said yes, with just 38 percent disagreeing.

The controversial conservative said the disconnect between what the American people think about illegal immigration and what Washington plans to do is unprecedented.

"I've never seen an issue where public opinion seems so strongly on one side, but because of corporate interests, the government is acting the other way," she told O'Reilly. "How about putting this to a vote?"

Talk about a " flip-flopper"...this Ann Coulter is the very definition of one.

Time was that her boy Bush could DO NO WRONG.

Looks like she might be waking up.....maybe a lot more will follow her!

Ann has never changed her view on illegals. She has been talking about it for a long time. She is only voicing louder now what most Americans are saying.

That's my point exactly. She's seen the light!!!!

Please show me where she has flip flopped.

As I recall I have never seen her or mainstream conservatives say Bush could do no wrong. If that is what you got ...................you must not have been paying attention.

Pt, I'm not ever going there as this post would run on and on with you saying Bush is a SAINT and me saying he's an IDIOT...so we already know that we're on different sides...why bother???

I will say this......remember how Anne Coulter was SO for the war...and yes there were WMD's under every sand dune and camel turd in Iraq??? Well, eve she is saying now that we need to get out and make Iraq take hold of it's own ' nuts' and grow up.

She's not in the " Bush Camp" any more!!!

I thought so..............................

I just asked for a flip flop............that's all.

A place you are wrong

[kolanuraven]

I was trying to peaceful with you and admitting our differences. I don't want to get into a pissin match with you. You seem to want to pick a fight this AM....we'll never agree....so lets agree to that!

[passin thru]

I do not want to get in a pm with you either.

However you can not make an assumption based on a false premise.....

As Ann Coulter has flip flopped...........she just happens to disagree with Bush on this issue. Case closed

That I think Bush is a Saint...............couldn't be farther from the truth. Also I thought the very same thing about him when he was first elected(he was not and is not a Saint)

Hope you have a nice day and all is going well for you. Hope the weather is cooperating also.
