Was reading the blog of a friend of mine a few days ago and he went on and on about Ann Coulter.
So, who the hell is Ann Coulter? Evidently she managed to get him pretty riled up.
Being kind of disconnected from the world at large these days, and spending most of my time out to sea, I had no idea who the hell he was talking about. So, I googled her and went out and bought two of her books, just to see what all the fuss was bout.
They were titles "Godless" and "How to Talk to a Liberal"
I finished Godless today...
And I feel sick...
The entire time I was reading it, I got the distinct impression that I was sitting next to a snake oil salesman...with tits...and a contract with the devil...
Phrases that never made any real impact on me before suddenly became very pertinent
phrases like "Wallowing in Sin"
I have always believed that a polarized political environment can only exist at the detriment to the people and the country they exist in. Reading this "woman"'s work makes me more certain than ever.
Holy crap.
I feel like I need to take a bath in holy water now. This book just made me feel disgusted and repulsed on a level I haven't experienced in years.

Any thoughts, aside from the obvious?

Next time read a chapter or two in the bookstore before you buy?

She's an extremist nutjob but I suppose at least she gets paid to be an extremist nutjob. Most just do it for free.

Inflicted the book on another friend of mine who is about as uninvolved with the politics of the day as I am.
Want to see what he thinks of it when he's done.
So far he's like thirty pages into it and is already using words like "bigot", "racist" and "self congratulatory logic"
Pretty sure he's going to see it a lot like I did.
Good god, why hasn't anyone put a bullet in this "person"'s brain yet?

Or, better yet, in her ominously bulbous Adam's Apple.

Because liberals don't have the balls.

God, hasn't she taught you anything?

No one fucking cares.

Trust me on this. This is the reason your friend is making millions selling advertising on his 8 page hits.

Good to see that Liberals still support free speech...


Next you'll propose that we ban/burn all her books, right?

Independants are liberals who can't bring themselves to vote Democrat. At least that's my story and I'm sticking with it! ;)

Most independents I know are conservatives who can't bring themselves to vote Republican... what you're talking about are Greens!

Well. I was going to include that in small text, but the forum hiccuped on me and I couldn't find my post to edit it...
