October 12, 200718 yr Ronnie Deutsch tried to bait her and she stuck it in and broke it off. It made good TV for Ronnie, I know they don't care what she said. See, if you offer the opinion that the Jews, by not accepting Christ for salvation, are not saved, you're anti-Semitic. That's the mantra. "Oh, have an opinion about my religion that I ask for? You're anti-semitic." The garbage here is Deutsch's, not Anne's, and I'm no Anne apologist. If you are a Christian and you do not believe that it would be better if every single person out there followed Christ, then I think you need to examine if you're following the Book. What in the heck did Ronnie expect her to say?

October 12, 200718 yr I see absolutely nothing wrong with her statements and I completely support the Jews. I believe the Jews are God's chosen people and the preservation and support of Israel is imperative for the United States.

What in the heck did Ronnie expect her to say? Why do you think you are automotically considered anti-semitic? Probably because of two things IMHO: 1. History. The history, particularly true of European history, is not good in some of the ways in which the Christian church practiced conversion on Jews. From the Inquisition to ghettos for Jews leaves many in the Jewish community immediately waving red flags when they hear that "Jews must convert." 2. The ethnicity involved. The notion of Christians is not limited to a racial or ethnic people group. The phrase "Jew" however holds conotations that are not just faith based but ethnically so. I think that's why language and presentation are important when talking about converting the Jews.

I agree with you but bring a tv show into the mix, especially on a station that reportedly has had extremely low ratings, and I wonder how much his offense has to do with ratings.
October 12, 200718 yr imo, These types of extremist views are what has harmed our country (both right & left). Her rightest view and those of leftist like Michael Moore divide the country. Certain issues cause divide so they are debated more heavily like abortion, religion, lobbyist and homosexuality. I wish we would concentrate on "holistic" ideas that can benefit our country like improving our health care system, improving the prescription drug system, bringing down the cost of educations, etc. Also, I would like to mention the Iraqi War. While I did not agree with the war from the start, I do understand why President Bush and others felt the need to be there. Instead of bashing us being there, we need to work to find "the best" solution to fix the problem now. We're there. period. I dont care if its a republican or democratic plan.
October 12, 200718 yr I agree with you but bring a tv show into the mix, especially on a station that reportedly has had extremely low ratings, and I wonder how much his offense has to do with ratings. I don't like this continued thought of, "he was asking for it." Were the Jews during the Holocaust also asking for it?? What about slavery?? Native Americans?? Word of the day. TOLERANCE. We are all different. religions, race, etc may be the same but our beliefs and ideas are all DIFFERENT. You wouldnt tell your co-worker that her hair looked like "crap". Well what if she asked about her hair? You still wouldnt be blunt. We live in the "melting pot" that is the United States. Slavery has ended. Segregation is over. Women can vote. Child labor laws are enforced. These "racist" and "discriminating" views need to end. Everyone has their own opinions so what makes mine or yours more important than anyone else. We need to move on!!

What does the Holocaust, native Americans, slavery have to do with this guy wanting to improve his ratings? He had Anne Coulter on to improve his ratings because he thought her fans would come and tryout his show and maybe stay for awhile. Do you deny that? If that is not the reason, why does he have her on his show. He likes the shoes she wears? It has been noted that the MSNBC and CNBC ratings have been horrible and they have been trying all sorts of things to improve their ratings. Keith Olberman has a running feud with Bill O'Reilley to try and improve his ratings. They brough Keith to Sunday Night Football to expand his audience and maybe get a boost to his cable show. Nothing wrong with that necessarily it is the way the media works. It is wrong to point out a motivation for this guy? So to use your own point, what makes your view of we need to move on more important than anyone else?
October 12, 200718 yr Author I for one never said that she was dumb; I'm sure she laughs all the way to the bank. But she is a hate-monger. Not just this recent example, which has been taken by some as such. Her repeated references to homosexuals, for example. Like many, I wish she would just go away; but as long as there are those out there who buy her books, she'll be around.

Even though it seems I am defending her, I agree with the bolded and would never buy one of her books, usually turn the channel when she is a guest and only did not this morning because I was laying in the bed and the remote was on the other side of the room and I was grabbing an extra 5 minutes in bed and didn't want to get up.

So to use your own point, what makes your view of we need to move on more important than anyone else? So your looking for motive tv show - ratings (your kidding is that how tv works???) Coulter - say crazy stuff, get attention & SELL books you've stuck to the tv show but to me there is no different. He said he had her on his show to show that she was a successful person & a good business model. You may know him better than me but I dont think he said, hey wait lets have her on & she'll say stupid stuff about Jews.
October 12, 200718 yr I see absolutely nothing wrong with her statements and I completely support the Jews. I believe the Jews are God's chosen people and the preservation and support of Israel is imperative for the United States. What he said. Read your Bible guys. Ever heard of Messianic Jews? The chosen 144,000?

You may know him better than me but I dont think he said, hey wait lets have her on & she'll say stupid stuff about Jews. It was not stupid. Politically incorrect but not stupid. She tried to make that point but he was having nothing of it. Let me try. Do you believe that if Jews do not accept Jesus Christ into their heart, they will not make it into Heaven? If you do, you are agreeing with what she said.
October 12, 200718 yr I see absolutely nothing wrong with her statements and I completely support the Jews. I believe the Jews are God's chosen people and the preservation and support of Israel is imperative for the United States. Sounds like a wonderful thread topic in it's own right. Would love to know 1) How you come to the point that the Jews are God's chosen people; 2) how the preservation and support of Israel is imperative for the US.
