Ann Coulter Calls Kwanzaa a Lunatic Blend of Black Racism

Kwanzaa is Holiday for White Liberals, Not Blacks, Says Ann Coulter

Ann Coulter Calls Kwanzaa a Lunatic Blend of Black Racism...by Paula Neal Mooney

I love Ann Coulter. And now that Ann Coulter has dissed the so-called African-American holiday called Kwanzaa, calling it "a lunatic blend of schmaltzy '60s rhetoric, black racism and Marxism," I love Ann Coulter all the more for being a white woman bold enough to diss a Kwanzaa celebration in a manner that I always thought but dare not spoke of.

I get the Kwanzaa cards in the mail around Christmastime and never appreciate the attention they take away from the birth of Jesus. Kwanzaa supporters will say it's all complimentary, but like Ann Coulter writes, I believe we've been duped into giving credence to some fake fight-the-power holiday.

Kwanzaa kinda reminds me of the fake red-black-and-green-Africa-on-a-leather-medallion sporting brothers who went to Florida A & M University with me, the kind who chided me for reading Cosmo -- a "white girls" magazine, after all, they'd say, as they summarily abused their "Nubian queens" to the high heavens.

They were false facades to an ideal, not the real thing itself. And Ann Coulter has now exposed the window dressing of Kwanzaa for what it really is: A way to detract from Christ's birthday celebration, with its supposed worthy community principals shrouded in African (or at least African-sounding) names.

Bah humbug to Kwanzaa. Ann Coulter just exposed what I'd been thinking for years. Coulter is a smart lady who doesn't apologize for being intelligent and conservative and sexy and alluring while she blows the liberals out the water with their theories of "no religion" and such.

I stood in Borders blown away by Ann Coulter's on-point observations in Godless: The Church of Liberalism. While I admit that Ann Coulter's comments insulting the most prominent 9/11 widows were over the top, I'm right in line with Coulter on this Kwanzaa thing.

And I love the way Ann Coulter closes her recent articlecriticizing Kwanzaa with this Bible verse: "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus" (Galatians 3:28).

That's what I'm saying, Ann...

    Republicans do not seem to be able to give a speech without including more than one racist comment. People of color please take the time to listen to these speeches and hear for yourself. Anne Coulter Republican spokesman cannot give a speech without including at least one racist slur. Just today at the Republican CPAC Conference (Feb. 10th) she is one of the keynote speaker. She In this speech, makes her first racist comment just a few minutes in and references the stereotype that black people cannot be trusted to borrow things because they do not return them (ie. all black people are thieves.)
    And then you hear the racism of the audience roar out in laughter.

    I interviewed a black journalist who agrees with Coulter about Kwanza, as do I. It was founded by a black militant named Ron Karenga with serious violence against women by this man, for which he was found guilty. I too don't like Coulter, but she is right on about this holiday.

    I came across this article while looking at another. Interesting column. I also refer to Kwanzaa as a "fake" holiday, created by radical activist Ron Karenga. It was Karenga himself who, in explaining why he invented it, stated that it was to "give Blacks an alternative to the existing holiday and give Blacks an opportunity to celebrate themselves and history, rather than simply imitate the practice of the dominant society." I guess he considered Christmas too much of a "white" holiday.

    Christmas is a joke, anyway. The Cult of the Zombie Jew is as much of a farce as any other religion.

    Ann Coulter is a miserable white woman that will never have anything going for except her mouth. She is so far off base on every comment. I wouldn't let her talk or offer any comments on anything. She sits around home and ponders on crap. She is such an unhappy person. How can anybody take anything she says for fact, fiction or otherwise? Well written article but definitely way off base.

    Who ever wrote this article is way of bases here. Kwanzaa is in no way trying to take away from the celebration of the birth of Christ. I am an educated African-American woman who embraces all cultures and people regardless of their skin tone or ethnicity. My choice to celebrate Kwanzaa has nothing to do with the hatred of any group of people. I have chosen to celebrate Kwanzaa because it reinforces and often times introduces one to the seven basic values of African culture. These values include an emphasis on family. Community, and culture among African Americans and serves a bridge for African American to reconnect with their African roots and African people through out the world. I believe that people of all races can benefit from practicing the seven principles of Kwanzaa year round.

    I am astonished that Paula Neal Mooney would use ann coulter as a scholastic reference! she is at best a hachet writer! I could name any number of scholars that would give her a sound thrashing in a debate.

    While Marshall seems smart, there are some men who probly see a skinny woman with blond hair and say "oooga!" like in the cartoons. I like this article. I loathe Ann Coulter with a passion but I like this article. And that's hard to do!
