Professional right-wing provocateur and attention-whore Ann Coulter has a new book out, which can only mean one thing: She’ll go on television and say something mind-bogglingly outrageous.
This time, however, she’s outdone herself, and in the process has dragged the name of Memphis’ biggest employer into her self-serving slimelight.
A sample of Coulter’s rhetoric from MSNBC’s Donny Deutsch show, “The Big Idea”:
DEUTSCH (who is Jewish): We should all be Christian?
COULTER: Yes. Would you like to come to church with me, Donny?
DEUTSCH: So I should not be a Jew, I should be a Christian, and this would be a better place? We should just throw Judaism away and we should all be Christians, then, or —
COULTER: Yeah.
DEUTSCH: Really?
COULTER: Do you know what Christianity is? We believe your religion, but you have to obey.
DEUTSCH: No, no, no, but I mean —
COULTER: We have the fast-track program.
COULTER: No, we think — we just want Jews to be perfected, as they say.
DEUTSCH: Wow, you didn’t really say that, did you?
COULTER: Yes. That is what Christianity is. We believe the Old Testament, but ours is more like Federal Express. You have to obey laws. We know we’re all sinners —
And there you have it, the Christian Gospel according to Ann Coulter, who is no doubt acting just like Jesus (a Jew, by the way) would have wanted her to.
We’d tell you the name of Coulter’s new book, but we forgot what it was. Guess we’re not perfected yet, either.
