Ann Coulter Is Not An Anti-Semite

First of all let me just say I haven't seen the segment, I just read the transcript. Also, I don't much like Ann Coulter, she says things for controversy sake and I think some of might be valid points get either ignored or undermined by her outlandish statements. In this case I feel like she was set up, the host asked her about her "ideal" world. Now if you are a Christian, like Ann, you would want in the ideal world for everyone to be a Christian, since you see that as the "right path" to salvation. Also as religion that comes out of Judaism, I can see how a Christian can see their religion as a "perfected" one. I don't agree with that sentiment and I like the Jewish perspective of not proselytizing, but that's not the Christian perspective.
Anyway, my two cents on the "controversy." I still don't like Coulter much and it doesn't help that the clip comes courtesy of Media Matters, a dubious source at best.
