the Jews believe that my savior, a Jew, was a raving lunatic
Edited on Tue Oct-16-07 05:15 PM by RamboLiberal
Guess who said that. :evilgrin: Coultergeist and Malkin just keep digging those holes deeper. They should be hitting hell fairly soon. She's melting...she's melting!

On the October 15 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Michael Medved hosted right-wing pundit Ann Coulter to discuss her October 8 assertion on CNBC's The Big Idea -- documented by Media Matters for America -- that "we" Christians "just want Jews to be perfected." Before airing a clip of Coulter's comments, Medved said: "What I wanted to do was to just get clear on the record here ... not only what you said but what you meant. Here is the section of the original interview ... that started the process that got you into such heated controversy." During the subsequent discussion, Coulter asserted, "As long as we're playing this new sport of 'he who is offended first wins,' if anyone's going to be offended by anyone else's religion, the Jews believe that my savior, a Jew, was a raving lunatic, and you don't see me sniffling and crying." In response, Medved said, "Be careful," adding, "I'm sure this is gonna come back. You don't really want to say -- because Jews do not -- traditional Jews do not really believe ... that Jesus was a raving lunatic." Before going to commercial break, Medved announced: "We're coming right back with Ann Coulter, who has, I don't know, maybe created some additional controversy -- I hope not."

Elsewhere in the interview, Coulter again elaborated on her October 8 comments, asserting: "By the way, of course a Christian wants everyone to be a Christian. I assume all vegans think the world would be better if everyone were a vegan. And the global warming wackos would like everyone to believe in their crackpot global warming theory. And nonsmokers would like everyone not to smoke." Coulter also said of the controversy surrounding her statement: "This is just the irreligious against the religious." She made similar comments on Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor later that evening, as Media Matters noted.

Later in the show, Coulter stated: "I'm sorry. I just can't take this seriously, Michael. I don't know when Donny Deutsch became the Al Sharpton of the Jews, but I don't think it's working." Medved replied, "Well, the problem here is that a lot of the major Jewish organizations" -- at which point Coulter interjected, "are lying." She added: "But they attack me. ... From what I can tell, it's all the usual suspects. It's always the same thing. Actually, the only thing that is different here is usually I have told a joke. It is a satire. Here it is just a straight, plain, non-controversial statement of what all Christians believe. Of course, all Christians want everyone to be a Christian, like all feminists would like everyone to be a feminist, though it's maybe a little more important to us." She concluded, "And yes, of course, we accept the Old Testament, which is what I said. And as I say in my current book, if the things I say are so outrageous, why won't they quote me accurately? I am never quoted accurately and, once again, I'm not being quoted accurately here." Coulter did not offer any purported evidence of her "not being quoted accurately."

Oh and came across this little bit today: According to a report published in the New York Post on 10 October 2007, she is presently dating Andrew Stein, the former president of the New York City Council, who is a liberal Democrat. When asked about the relationship, Stein told the paper, "She's attacked a lot of my friends, but what can I say, opposites attract!"

What the hell is Stein smoking?

1. The scandal with Coulter isn't her words. She basically has Tourette's. The real problem is...
...that a raving lunatic with manifest mental health issues is still being put on the air by major media outlets.

"Actually, the only thing that is different here is usually I have told a joke. It is a satire. Here it is just a straight, plain, non-controversial statement of what all Christians believe."

And this is part of the reason why only 14% of Jews vote Republican.

3. Typical Repuke projection--they're assholes 'cause they expect everyone to be as bad as they are!
If this isn't projection, I don't know what is. I think Repukes like Coulter just don't buy that everyone isn't secretly as big of an asshole as they are. They just can't comprehend how someone could be that way, so they accuse them of being fake.

Besides, they're not assholes, they're just honest! Right? Right?

5. I agree with the Jews then, Ann!
Any savior of yours is bound to be some sort of freakish "Buffalo Bill" psychopath.

6. First of all in Jewish scriptures and the Talmud
Jesus is of absolutely no importance. What individual Jews may think of Christians is beside the point, but the Jewish holy texts don't spend much ink on him.

Also, I wonder what Michelle Malkin's husband thinks of her siding with the Coulter-geist on this one. Isn't he Jewish?

8. How is this "person" allowed to continue with this?
How?

Words cannot quite express sufficient outrage, yet it continues.

9. She really isn't very bright. I know most of what she does is more performance art than

commentary, but here she assumes that all groups and religions seek to convert everyone to their belief system. She can't seem to get her mind around the fact that the whole world does not think that way.

Very dim-witted woman.
