It's a free country and both of them can say whatever they like. As long as they don't stick a sword to my neck and insist I smell man butt 5 times a day and pray to some moon rock or I die I'm OK with them. They are not in elected office so when they say stuff people get bent out of shape about so what.....
Jesus was born, lived, and died a Jew. He followed the laws of Judaism and preached the laws of Judaism.
One who supports the tenets for which Jesus is reported to have stood is liking Judaism. If Ann Coulter were logical, she would deduce that the world would be better if everyone followed Judaism.
Have you read Ann's positions on Israel? If so, I doubt you'd be so quick to paint her and Buchanan with the same brush.
If you wish, please check out the links below.
See the segment (with commercials) on the show by watching the You Tube flash segment about 1/2 way down the page.
WOR radio segment in which Ann explains her comments in the first segment. here
It differs in what way?
Nail, meet head, couldn’t have said it any better myself.
Ewww.
Does God honestly like swearing? I really want to know actually, because I have a "Christian" friend who swears up and down like a sailor, then out of his same breath talks about Jesus.

You can experience a car in a few minutes.
Wrong again. The proportion of Jews who voted for Bush was about twice that of African Americans who voted for him. Note to mimaw: with the internet, it is easy to check facts.
"African American turnout surged approximately 25 percent in the 2004 election, with President Bush increasing his share of the Black vote to 11 percent compared to 8 percent in 2000."
Because pointing out the vast majority of practicing Jews today are Rabbinic pre-empts the assertion Jews "don't need perfecting."
I took that as a negative reference to Jews and their holy texts.
I'm taking it rather negatively that I'm being interrogated by someone who had to google just to get a clue. What, now your Elie Weisel?
Don't tell me there is "no adjective required" when you don't even know the subject matter. There are enough Jewish FReepers to bring it to my attention if they are offended. They don't need help from you.
I suppose it could be, but I can't see any Karaite Jews claiming they don't need "perfecting" in that if nothing else, they don't currently have a Temple to practice the Biblically mandated worship.
Uhg, how embarrassing.
Dear Alouette,
May the Almighty Lord be gracious and kind to you, may He bless you and uphold you. May He draw you near to Himself and grant you His Peace. He loves you and us more than we can begin to imagine. You are a precious friend and daugher of Zion! You are definitely in my prayers, dear lady!
Well, he does say that God chose and still chooses the Jewish people, and they mystery of that love and their redemption in God's hands - Romans 11:
28 In respect to the gospel, they are enemies on your account; but in respect to election, they are beloved because of the patriarchs.
29 For the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable.
30 Just as you once disobeyed God but have now received mercy because of their disobedience,
31 so they have now disobeyed in order that, by virtue of the mercy shown to you, they too may (now) receive mercy.
32 For God delivered all to disobedience, that he might have mercy upon all.
33 Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How inscrutable are his judgments and how unsearchable his ways!
34 "For who has known the mind of the Lord or who has been his counselor?"
35 "Or who has given him anything that he may be repaid?"
36 For from him and through him and for him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen.
This thread and its convolutions of what makes a person anti-semetic or anti-Israel or pro-Israel but anti-semetic or pro-Jew but anti-Israel reminds me of the "Dennis Moore" episode of Monty Python:
"Blimey - this redistribution of wealth branding people anti-semetic is trickier than I thought!"
PS - If Ron Paul had said what Anne said, the usual pack of townsfolks would be here with their torches and pitchforks.
I have never seen Ann Coulter win any debate because exactly of what you described, total immaturity in her debating style, smirks and snide looks, sarcasm in every word, silly and stupid jokes, and she thinks this is the way you win a debate with a liberal. But of course according to her adoring fan on FR she rivals Cicero with her debating skills.
Paulie had the common sense to write it dowwn, not broadcast it in the studio of a left-wing fink like Deutsch, and leave himself wide open for a charge of anti-semitism, no matter how spurious.
Interesting that Paulie (look I know it's disrepectful to some, but I feel a know the guy, OK?) was addressing the first big problem Christianity had... i.e, did one have to become a Jew before becoming a Christian, complete with circumcision? As the Romans considered Christianity a Jewish sect, which of course is exactly what it had been up until then, this was an excellent question.
Marketing genius that he was, Paulie wanted to sell Christianity to a bigger market, and did away with the surgical requirements. As far as the "Perfected Jews" idea goes, it has very deep Puritan roots in this country. The founders, especially the Puritans of the Massachusetts Bay Colony (as opposed to the Pilgrims) considered themselves the latest model of the Chosen People, and were certainly a great deal more tolerant of Jews than they were of Catholics or Quakers, even to the extent of having rabbis on the faculty of Harvard and Yale to teach the new ministers proper Hebrew.
However, none of this is to defend Annie, who needs a good long rest in the country and to stop dating Andrew Stein, who does need a great deal of perfecting .. probably not at first as a Christian. Working that jerk up to human would be a better idea.
Ann Coulter has come up with a successful marketing strategy and it works every dang time. The MSM gives her all kinds of free press after she says something outrageous. And the people who don’t have the depth God gave a blade of grass snap up her schtick and her books like candy because of who she angers. Every time — outrageous comment, spinal cord howling and free press, spinal cord reaction to buy her cartoonish books.
The only difference between her and the “artists” who dunk religious artifacts in dung and urine is that she is far more effective at making money out of being a complete tool.
Simply out of respect for my Jewish friends. Many see the name as so holy that they don’t write it out, and traditionally what they use is actually just that, HaShem, meaning, the name.
Personally, I’m not buying anything being posted on this one from that particular poster.
The ‘Coulter on meth’ crack is what it is.
