Controversial columnist speaks out
■ Right-wing Ann Coulter
discusses the current war,
airtrafficand liberals
By Erin Cooney
for the Emerald
Her views on liberals, women and
the media are called “controversial” at
the very least. She has opinions on air
port security, and feels the Middle East
would benefit greatly from a large dose
of Christianity. Whether her audience
loved her or hated her, when Ann H.
Coulter spoke last night at the Knight
Law School, she got their attention.
Stan Pulliam, the chairman for the
University of Oregon’s College Re
publicans, introduced Coulter to a
near-full lecture hall as someone
who is “seen on FoxNews on almost
a daily basis. ” No matter what atten
dees expected, he said, “I guarantee
you... you’ll be fascinated by her. ”
Coulter has authored several pieces
in the weeks since the Sept. 11 attacks.
First year law student Lincoln
Nehring has read her work, and said
he came to hear Coulter’s speech on
Sunday night because “she’s scary.”
Nehring heard about the presentation
through an e-mail from the law school
list serve and said he found her work
to be “more than entertaining. ”

pousing her views on politics since
the terrorist attacks, and had strong
words against liberals.
On the war currently being fought in
Afghanistan, Coulter said liberals are
being impatient. She also suggested
that “the only fundamentalist liberals
want to go to war with is Jerry Falwell. ’ ’
Her religious beliefs were also
made clear in the speech. She said,
“This nation was founded as a
Christian experiment,” and remind
ed the audience that America em
braces the rights of people to prac
tice their individual religions.
She said she recognizes women’s
rights as being limited under Tal
iban rule, but said that is not the
reason we are at war.
“We’re fighting because we were
attacked on Sept. 11,” she said.
Though Coulter said she believes
that women and men are equal, she
said that “women always become
hysterical because they don’t have
the ability to solve problems.”
She ended her speech discussing
airport security, which she feels is
lacking.
Coulter scoffed at the idea of a na
tional identification card and said,
“I’ve yet to hear a liberal explain how a
national ED would prevent terrorism. ”
