Ann Coulter: The Spiritual Leader Of The Republican Party

I was watching CNBC last night and guess who was on? Ann Coulter of course. Talking about her new book of course. And something very obvious appeared to me then. There has not been a single member of this administration or high-ranking republican member of the senate that has condemned her. Not one (1).

In fact, when she gives interviews conservative-republican commentators are generally careful to make clear that they agree with her messages, but not the way she presents them. Some others like Hannity are openly supportive of her. Last night Coulter said something like there is a "mental illness" or something similar from which liberals suffer. She also explained how "liberalism" is the equivalent of some sort of religion or anti-religion or something bizzare like that.

So, whats going here? We have a bizzare person, Ann Coulter, who is a self pro-claimed conservative that openly makes anti-American statements (like the one attacking the victims of 9/11) and promotes bigotry and hate. And the republican party does not dare to condemn her!!!! The whole thing is remarkable. No matter how bizzare and out of touch with reality Coulter is, she makes it routinely in TV stations to express her lunatic theories and the republican base listens to her.

It is about time that the leaders of the republican party divorce themselves from her. You can not say that you are patriotic and you promote democracy, as the republicans do, and at the same time have a bizzare person like Coulter speaking in the name of conservatism. American democracy and patriotism are clearly incompatible with Ann Coulter's theories and statements.
