COLMES: Now, look, let's talk about -- let's talk about your book. How about that?
COULTER: I would love to.
COLMES: All right. Now, you talk about “Single motherhood is like a farm team for future criminals and --
COULTER: Yes.
COLMES: -- social outcasts.”
COULTER: Yes.
COLMES: So you're putting down single mothers.
COULTER: What I am saying --
COLMES: “We have a term for youngsters involved in children of divorces, or as I call them, future strippers.”
COULTER: What I am saying is --
COLMES: How sensitive of you.
COULTER: Yes, it's very sensitive. Well, and it's something that needs to be said. What I'm saying is there is no better example of victimizers who are treated like victims than single mothers. This was not an accident that the illegitimacy rate has gone up 300 percent since 1970. This was a plan by liberals. Liberals claim --
COLMES: Wait, wait. Liberals want the rates to go up?
COULTER: They hate marriage, yes. And as I document --
COLMES: Liberals hate marriage. Wait a minute. Let me just take my ring off, OK?
[...]
COLMES: You go after single motherhood, and then you go after Barack Obama and Halle Berry and Alicia Keys and what you call “matinee idol Barack Obama” --
COULTER: Matinee idol.
COLMES: -- for dissing their fathers and having their mothers raise them.
COULTER: No, dissing their mothers who raised them while -- right --
COLMES: Well, insulting the women who struggled to raise them --
COULTER: Right.
COLMES: -- when you insult single mothers by saying they're strippers and they're --
COULTER: I don't insult single mothers.
COLMES: -- it's a recipe to create criminals.
COULTER: It is a recipe --
COLMES: You're insulting them.
COULTER: -- no, it is a recipe to create criminals, strippers, rapists, murderers --
COLMES: So you're insulting them.
COULTER: No, I am insulting single motherhood, which is avidly promoted by the left. And they are --
COLMES: But that's what you are accusing Barack of doing.
COULTER: No, those are different chapters and completely different points. You are conflating two things that have nothing to do with one another. The point is, in -- on the Alicia Keys and Barack Obama, it is that all of these children of a black father who abandoned them and a white mother who raised them, they all identify with the ethnicity of their black fathers to establish victimhood status in America.
COLMES: And you accuse them of insulting --
COULTER: Because that is how you get ahead in America, by being a victim.
COLMES: And you accuse them of insulting the women who struggled to raise them.
COULTER: Correct.
COLMES: Yet you have insulted them by calling them strippers.
COULTER: No, I didn't call the mothers strippers.
HANNITY: Oh, my goodness.
COULTER: I said that this is a recipe for creating -- and it is, it is a fact --
COLMES: Oh, their kids are strippers. OK.
COULTER: Yes, and they will be, and that is a fact. You liberals pretend you care about facts.
COLMES: I am “you liberals.”
COULTER: We have 30 years of analysis on what -- on what single motherhood produces, and it produces crime.
