Terminate Ann Coulter's syndication
Ann Coulter has long been considered one of the worst syndicated columnists in history. Not only is she incapable of critical thinking, but her writing style is banal and full of witticisms that could easily be attributed to an eleven-year old. Nevertheless, some companies still feel that they need to carry her venomous rants. I should point out that National Review, a magazine renowned for its very conservative slant and its bloodthirsty anti-Muslim columnists, elected to terminate Ann Coulter.
As an update, there was a certain amount of activity last week due to an article by World Net Daily. Read some of the emails we received here.
Please take the time to send the letter below to the following links. Please title your emails "Terminate Ann Coulter's Column".

Write to FrontPage Magazine. These guys are extremely anti-Muslim and fanatic fascists in their pursuit of conservatism. It is run by a David Horowitz, who loves Ann because she suggested that we invade Islamic countries and convert them to Christianity. Little hope of convincing them to drop Ann Coulter, I'm afraid, but we should let them know that she sucks.
Dear Sir/Madam;
I would like to express my total dissatisfaction with your organization's syndication of columnist Ann Coulter. Not only is she one of the worst columnists in recent history, she is also one of the most vindictive and bloodthirsty writers on today's circuit. Ann Coulter's comments on various talk shows and through her columns portray her to be a vindictive, egocentric, and thoroughly anti-Muslim bigot that has the bad habit of speaking before she thinks. Some of her more recent comments include:
[about Muslims] "We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war."
"[Clinton] masturbates in the sinks."---Rivera Live 8/2/99
"God gave us the earth. We have dominion over the plants, the animals, the trees. God said, 'Earth is yours. Take it. Rape it. It's yours.'"---Hannity & Colmes, 6/20/01
To a disabled Vietnam vet: "People like you caused us to lose that war."---MSNBC
"I think we had enough laws about the turn-of-the-century. We don't need any more." Asked how far back would she go to repeal laws, she replied, "Well, before the New Deal...[The Emancipation Proclamation] would be a good start."---Politically Incorrect 5/7/97
It is evident that this "writer" is nothing more than a mouthpiece for ultra-reactionary conservatives, and a blowhard at that. She does not represent American values; her comments fly in the face of everything that Americans stand for, including the conservative population. She is disgusting and vindictive, and is unable to generate a single original idea. Her columns are always about how evil Muslims are, or how all environmentalists should be sentenced to death. Even conservative organizations like the National Review have dropped her syndication, citing a lack of professional ethics and integrity.
I am fairly certain that Ann Coulter does not represent the ideas and values of your company. In fact, the only people she can claim to represent are bigots. I therefore ask that you immediately cancel the appearance of her column from your organization. I also would like to ask that you issue a public statement that informs the media that the reason that Ann Coulter was dropped was because of her paranoid and vindictive bigotry, and that she does not represent the values and the culture of your organization.
Thank you for your time.
Regards,
Really, How many Thousands of innocent women have suffered excruciating deaths because of this verse?
Exodus 22:18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
Throught history Christians have just as much blood on their hands as muslums. How many other people were burned because they came up with radical ideas like The Earth is round and it goes around the sun.
BTW, While you are reading exodus, read up on one of the most "Heroic" figures in the bible Mosses and all his actions, He makes Osama Bin Laden look like a pussycat.
As to your putative "refutation" not a single one of your verses instructs Chrisitans to subjugate, maim, or murder non-believers.These are from the King James Version of the Bible, recognized by virtually all Protestants as the revealed and reinforced word of God:
Exodus Chapter 35:
2: Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.
Leviticus Chapter 20:
2: Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
9: For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother
27: A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood shall be upon them.
Leviticus Chapter 24:
16: And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the LORD, shall be put to death.
Deuteronomy, Chapter 13:
5: And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which the LORD thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.
Deuteronomy, Chapter 17:
2: If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the LORD thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that hath wrought wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, in transgressing his covenant,
3: And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;
4: And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and inquired diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel:
5: Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die.

I caught this back a on the first page, made me laugh. That is now my word of the day. Just thought I would bring it up, some of us need to lighten up a bit.
Not all muslims are terrorists, I work with one and he is a great guy, invited me to dinner and what not. As stated before, most Muslims in America are moderate and secular, but overseas it is quite different. Hakim(my coworker) even confirms that. He was born in America and was a marine, he's been pretty much all around the world, and confirmed that mid-east moslems are quite different from American moslems.
just my two cents..
Though fallen Catholic turned agnostic, it's quite clear that I still know a good bit more about Protestantism than thou. But, since you're evidently quite thick, I shall lay this out for you in excruciating detail:
Exodus Chapter 35:
Not operative.
Leviticus Chapter 20:
Not operative.
Leviticus Chapter 24:
Not operative.
Deuteronomy, Chapter 13:
Not operative.
Deuteronomy, Chapter 17:
Not operative.
In fine and in sum, not one of the verses cited by you is binding upon any Christian. They were superseded by [among many others] this one:
"You must love the Lord with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law, and the Prophets, also."
Now, I don't own a King James Bible, but I do believe the translation of Luke 22:37-40 runs roughly the same. To imply as you clearly do, that any Protestant would use any of these verses as a justification for killing a practictioner is so unspeakably bogus that I wonder why you wasted the time to actually type such a ridiculous posting.
Now go away. I really have much better ways to spend my mortality than to differ with every naif who's just fallen off the back of his Volvo. You just keep on believing that Islam is a religion of peace, and when your mother, or your brother, or your kids get blown to smithereens, you can console yourself with the knowledge that five or six centuries ago some misguided Chrisitans would probably have done the same thing.
What are the rights of Christians, Jews, and Zoroastrians under Sharia? Especially in disputes that involve Muslims? Are those practices, or are they not regarded as justified in Islam?
What is dhimmitude? What is its justification in Islam?
I am an agnostic. For 48 years I have lived in peace and security in the United States of America, an essentially Christian nation.
How many microseconds would I be permitted to live in my beliefs under Islam?
Roughly the number killed in boating accidents in New York State in the twentieth century. Ridiculous. Document a number.
Throught [sic] history Christians have just as much blood on their hands as muslums [sic].
Quite possibly, I don't dispute that. But those "Chrisitans" were not practicing their religion. The Muslims were.
How many other people were burned because they came up with radical ideas like The Earth is round and it goes around the sun.
A common canard. The fact that the Earth was round was propounded and its circumference was calculated by Ptolemy in AD 130. This fact was well known to educated people throughout the world, including Christians. As to the lie that anybody was burned at the stake for the Copernican theory, I defy you to produce the name of exactly one. Galileo is probably the most famous proponent. He was a friend of the Pope's and spent the last years of his life under "house arrest." A grave injustice, but hardly capital punishment.
You seem to want me to accept the crimes of Christianity as my personal cross to bear. I won't. I am not a Chrisitan. I am not a believer at all. But I at least have the sense to recognize this: If you think the world that you currently live in [a modern, secular, pluralistic society] would be possible under Islam, then you don't live here on Earth with me. You are living in a dream world.
Again, I would urge you to actually study the history of western civilization and the debt it owes to Christianity, as well as the backwardness and degeneration of Chrisitan communities once they fell under the crescant, before you start mouthing of a lot of crap you know nothing about.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Well starting with the 19 killed in the Salem Witch Trials, 5000 in the Spainish Inquistion, 3000 in SE Germany. The Death sentance for Witchcraft wasn't abolished in England until 1736.
Throught [sic] history Christians have just as much blood on their hands as muslums [sic].
Quite possibly, I don't dispute that. But those "Chrisitans" were not practicing their religion. The Muslims were.
I have heard that arguement and I don't buy it. That's like saying Communism isn't bad because even though Josef Stalin and Moa Se Tuang Killed all those millions of people they weren't practicing real communism.

1) Giordano Bruno
Galileo is probably the most famous proponent. He was a friend of the Pope's and spent the last years of his life under "house arrest." A grave injustice, but hardly capital punishment.
Life imprisionment, Oh that's so much better. It's because he was a friend of pope he got off "Light" if he wasn't he would have burned.
You seem to want me to accept the crimes of Christianity as my personal cross to bear. I won't. I am not a Chrisitan. I am not a believer at all. But I at least have the sense to recognize this: If you think the world that you currently live in [a modern, secular, pluralistic society] would be possible under Islam, then you don't live here on Earth with me. You are living in a dream world.
Please tell me where I posted it would be good to live under Islam or where I somehow endore Islam over Christianity. I am just pointing all religions have evil parts to them and people of all religions used their religion for justification of evil.
Again, I would urge you to actually study the history of western civilization and the debt it owes to Christianity, as well as the backwardness and degeneration of Chrisitan communities once they fell under the crescant, before you start mouthing of a lot of crap you know nothing about.
Western Civilization owes more to the people who were brave enough to defy the teachings of the bible. Let's not forget our system of government comes from the Greeks & Romans. And speaking of the Romans let's not forget in the bible which is full of Kings, Tyrannts and Butchers the Romans are the only democracy/Republic mentioned and according to the bible They Were the Bad Guys.
Both estimates only, and both very high. And roughly equal to the number of Armenians murdered by the Ottoman Turks in about 15 minutes. Christianity has its catalog of horrors, but witchcraft is really not one of them. And, you still haven't documented any number more authoritatively than 19. No one can. It was a hysterical excess that know-nothings like to sieze on as some pervasive cancer of Christianity, and it draws attention away from the more serious [and real] problem of the people murdered for heresy.
Giordano Bruno
If you know the name of Giordano Bruno, then you should know perfectly well that he was not burned for either believing that the world was round, or that the sun was the center of the solar system. Copernicanism was not what he was tried for, and the Church had no position on the Copernican theory until well after his death.
I'm still waiting for a name.
I have heard that arguement and I don't buy it. That's like saying Communism isn't bad because even though Josef Stalin and Moa Se Tuang Killed all those millions of people they weren't practicing real communism.
No, they were practicing real communism, and that's why they did the things they did. And Usama bin Laden is practicing real Islam. Look, I can show you the Communist Manifesto, das Kapital or the Koran, and you can read for yourself what they say. And, I can produce the writings of their many scholars, even today, right now in 2003, who will verify that communism [or Islam] do indeed require these murderous tithes from mankind.
I absolutely defy you to claim that the NT justifies the murder of innocent people or the subjugation of non-believers under any circumstances, or any modern proponent, scholar, or authority who claims that it does.
Western Civilization owes more to the people who were brave enough to defy the teachings of the bible.
A bare assertion with no foundation in reality.
Let's not forget our system of government comes from the Greeks & Romans.
And this is pertinent because... Oh, yes, that's right, because Christendom embraced this form of government and perpetuated it. Or did you think the England that originated the rights of Englishmen so dear to the American colonists was an enlightened pagan empire of some kind?
And speaking of the Romans let's not forget in the bible which is full of Kings, Tyrannts and Butchers the Romans are the only democracy/Republic mentioned and according to the bible They Were the Bad Guys.
The Romans were bad guys to the subjugated people who wrote the Bible, who got very little by way of representative democracy from them. Furthermore, by the time of the NT Rome was no longer a republic.
LOFL!!!
Mind if I use this from time to time?
