Gobsmacked by argument that hey, YAF/Coulter ultimately canceled this, not Berkeley.
Yeah, under extreme duress & violent threats. Sheesh!

As Twitchy told you, after about a week of reversals and re-reversals, Ann Coulter’s planned April 27 speech at UC Berkeley is officially off. Howard Dean is no doubt pleased as punch over the news, given his assertion that the First Amendment doesn’t apply to Coulter.
Actor Rob Schneider wasn’t feeling much love for Dean after those earlier remarks:

And now that Coulter’s event has been canceled, apparently for keeps this time, he’s taking Berkeley to task, too:

Berkeley’s reputation for fostering free speech is very swiftly being overtaken by its reputation for silencing it.
A school whose students started the FREE SPEECH MOVEMENT intimidates speakers and supporters..HYPOCRITS! Berkeley you should be ashamed.
