Outrageousness from Ann Coulter, “Conservative Queen”

It pains me a bit to post this video of Ann Coulter–to give her any amount of server space or publicity–but I believe in listening to others before I am totally appalled by them. How can we disregard someone if we haven’t heard them in the first place?

In this interview with Donny Deutsch on his show Big Ideas, Coulter sputters the outrageous comment that Christians want Jews “to be perfected”.

Excuse me? She wants “to perfect” Jews?

Deutsch is rightly aghast. In Coulter’s barrage of nonsensical statements (she tells him he’s not a practicing Jew; in her perfect world, he could remain a non-practicing Jew and become a practicing Christian), she does not stop to consider that Deutsch would politely ask her to pause and actually explain her comments. I’m amazed that this woman does not get kicked off appearances more often, considering how inflammatory she performs.

Side note: This is one of the good–and bad–things about YouTube, no? The ability to view so many archives and related videos. I began watching a segment featuring Coulter arguing with the women on The View, and then–like a car crash–could not get myself to look away from all the wreckage alongside.



Are you a Jew? Perhaps you should consider The Great Schlep

Listen to Silverman: she's got good advice for a better America

This is absolutely hilarious. Sarah Silverman is one of those wild performers who combines shock with wit. In this brief video, she cajoles all you Jews to make “The Great Schlep” to see your retired, vote-eligible nanas and poppies in Florida and to talk them into voting for Obama. It’s a great idea–plus you’ll get a free vacation in the meantime.

It’s admirable that you’re voting for Obama, but what about all your friends and neighbors?
