Jewish Group Wants Media To Give “Perfected Jew” Coulter Cold Shoulder

Jewish Group Wants Media To Give “Perfected Jew” Coulter Cold Shoulder
By Israel Insider.

The National Jewish Democratic Council (NJDC) called on mainstream media outlets to stop inviting Ann Coulter as a guest commentator/pundit and strongly condemned her comments that Jews should be “perfected” by accepting the New Testament and that America would be better off if Judaism were “thrown away” and all Americans were Christian.

During the October 8 edition of CNBC’s The Big Idea, host Donny Deutsch asked right-wing pundit Ann Coulter: “If you had your way … and your dreams, which are genuine, came true … what would this country look like?”

Coulter responded, “It would look like New York City during the <2004> Republican National Convention. In fact, that’s what I think heaven is going to look like.” She described the convention as follows: “People were happy.

............

After a commercial break, Deutsch said that “Ann said she wanted to explain her last comment,” and asked her, “So you don’t think that was offensive?”

Coulter responded: “No. I’m sorry. It is not intended to be. I don’t think you should take it that way, but that is what Christians consider themselves: perfected Jews. We believe the Old Testament. As you know from the Old Testament, God was constantly getting fed up with humans for not being able to live up to all the laws. What Christians believe — this is just a statement of what the New Testament is — is that that’s why Christ came and died for our sins. Christians believe the Old Testament. You don’t believe our testament.” Coulter later said: “We consider ourselves perfected Christians. For me to say that for you to become a Christian is to become a perfected Christian is not offensive at all.”

1. Good. Wouldn't it be nice if the world just ignored her?
That would be the best thing for the rest of us and the worst possible thing for her. Works for me.

4. It sure would. I don't know why anyone in the media would want
to have her on their show or interview her or anything else. The only difference between her and the unstable people in subways cursing people out is a literary agent.

3. DeLay's Floating City
I recall the Hammer wanted all delegates to stay in boats along the Hudson...not far from MSG...so they wouldn't encounter the "riff-raff" in the city...also to throw a bone to his buddies who operated the cruise ships.

IRC, the only boat that did sail up was "The Dukestir"

:rofl:

Coultergeist knows how to push the buttons, but I think she's pushed a few too many. Her "mainstream" days are over and those who attempt to portray her that way can easily be labeled as right wing sock puppets.

5. I wish everyone would give her the cold shoulder.
She is one sick woman.
