Coulter has another John Hostettler moment

Feel free to skip this entry, because Ann Coulter is such an over-the-top crackpot that most people have probably stopped paying attention to her by now.

Coulter isn't exactly known for not being a bigot. But she's just so far gone now that I can't imagine that anyone can still think she's as brilliant as the Free Republic morons think she is.

In October 2003, Coulter was responsible for what David Brock called an "anti-Semitic screed" on the right-wing Townhall website. This past Monday, Coulter had another John Hostettler moment when she launched an anti-Jewish harangue on CNBC's 'The Big Idea'.

In Coulter's latest tirade, she declared America would be a better place without Jews and said that Jews should "perfect" themselves into Christians. While arguing with host Donny Deutsch about this statement, Coulter sniffed, "I give all of these speeches at megachurches across America, and the one thing that's really striking about it is how utterly, completely diverse they are, and completely un-self-consciously. You walk past a mixed-race couple in New York, and it's like they have a chip on their shoulder. They're just waiting for somebody to say something, as if anybody would."

What??? And what did that little tangent have to do with the rest of the interview anyway??? How much bigotry does Ann Coulter have to cram into one interview?

And what sort of wingnut megachurch would have Ann Coulter as a speaker?

But most conservatives consider Ann Coulter a genius, so that just goes to show what a mess conservatism has become. So have some laughs at conservatism's expense!

  1. The reason people like Ann Coulter's columns is because she's so good at enraging libs. Much like you go after conservatives and Republicans. I think you and her are a lot alike, actually, just on opposite extremes. I read both you and Coulter purely for the entertainment.
