I do not watch TV. I think in the past year I watched a few minutes of Oprah. When I see this, I remember why I turned the stupid machine off. How could any network allow someone so vile to speak on their channels. Have we no taste, no respect for people whose opinions differ from ours, whatsoever in this country? Why do Americans watch this strange woman? I'm shocked. A co-worker was reading her book about liberals being Godless. I asked him, "Do you think I'm Godless?" He just sort of looked down and shook his head. I do not believe in censorship, but on the other hand, no one is forced to watch shows that invite vile people to say cruel, mean things. I blame everyone who watches the show. She has a forum because people watch her and react either with approval or dismay. She deserves only to be ignored. Elizabeth Edwards of course is responding to direct threats and insults to her husband and family. It is not only appropriate but mandatory that she respond.

I would like to add that anyone who claims to be a Christian and admires or agrees with Ann Coulter needs to reread his or her New Testament. Would Jesus say what Ann Coulter says? I think not. He taught love and compassion.

I believe that Jesus would strongly support Edwards' focus on the poor, not Ann Coulter.
