Ann Coulter

Is anyone actually a fan of what this crazy woman (in my opinion), has to say? I can't believe people buy her books. 8O

His doesn't seem as hateful though? Maybe this is taken out of context, but I read this and just can't imagine paying for anything the person who said this has to say, "We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity.".

I haven't read anything she has written so can't really comment. Really need to know the context in which it was written.

Not sure on the exact context, but it is in reference to Islam.

Yes I believe it was in reference to Islamic countries who may not agree with US and Western foreign policies... I expect it was written tongue in cheek, however taken seriously by those who have an opposing view.

I've never heard of this wing nut before today, and did a little research and reading. Kind of seems like a 'shock jock' type to me. Say controversial things and get headlines, sell product.. it's all about the money honey.

I think I agree with your evaluation.

She is just one of many over hyped loons who cater to one side to make a buck, Her Hannity, Beck, O REALLy and Olberman are all pathetic morons who need to go away. I apologize for America that any other country is forced to see what is going on right now :roll:

I can see, out of the 3 bike forum boards I belong to, this is one I should steer completely clear of political conversation.
Thanks for the advanced warning! 8)

Why is that? I think in the past political discussions have gone very well on this forum...

I don't know much about Ann Coulter but I saw her in news after she has supposedly exaggerated the situation in Ontario, to suit herself... I know very little of her opinions, but the one quote I posted, it seems hard to agree with that.

In all honesty, Any political or religious topic should be avoided at all costs Two people could be best freinds one minute and shooting each other the next :P I just happen to despise all the people I mentioned so much I could not resist, I hate people who make a buck off preaching fear and hate at the cost of the country they claim to try to be speaking for. Plus they all spend more time attacking each other than getting to any real points.

Jon Stewert and Stephen Colbert are comedians and make more sense than these wack jobs.

My political views....being a born, bred and raised Red Blooded American, who's family is full of American Veterans who have fought and died for the 50 states....including my grandfather, father and brother...to keep this country free........well....let's just say I may have a slightly 'tilted' view of how things should be.
Again....that's what makes the world go 'round, right?????
Peace! All you guys! Honest!
I'm just here to learn about the China bikes (being a gearhead) and maybe meet up along the path with some real cool folks! 8)
