Jewish Groups Condemn, Boycott Ann Coulter
(CBS) Jewish groups are firing back at Ann Coulter after the blond-tressed pundit said during an interview yesterday that Jews need to be "perfected" into Christians.

The American Jewish Committee issued a statement declaring that it is "outraged" by Coulter's assertion on Donny Deutsch's CNBC show "The Big Idea" that Jews require "perfecting" by becoming Christians.

"Ms. Coulter's assertion that Jews are somehow religiously imperfect smacks of the most odious anti-Jewish sentiment," said AJC President Richard Sideman.

While appearing on "The Big Idea," Coulter said Judaism should be discarded, that Jews required Christianity to be "perfected," and that Christianity had a "fast track" to God.

"One would think she would know better than to utter such intolerant words," Sideman said.

5. I think she has, at long last, finally been given enough rope
to hang herself once & for all! I expect that we will be hearing a lot less from this harpy henceforth.

7. What took them so long?
I mean, really. She's been displaying a streak of Christian-centered bigotry for years.

Sure it's been pointed mainly at Muslims... But hasn't anyone yet figured out, that by omission, she's a Christian bigot?


I guess Shinto, Jains, Sikhs, Hindus and Buddhists are still on her To-Do list.

10. As much as I'm sure we all want it to be, I'm sure this won't be her Waterloo
She's already "crossed the line" umpteen times and yet here she is. She's like that Chucky doll or something.

14. Good for them. As a Christian I am also offended by her so called
definition. To me Christianity is all about forgiveness. Her definition is pure rw asshole religion.
