"Godless" Liberals?

That's the most recent garbage spewed out by this neocon hatemonger, Anne Coulter. I can't stand her and her racist, bigoted rantings, and neither could any liberal or centrist for that matter... that is, provided that the centrists like myself lean more towards liberal values. I was surfing today on the net, just to find a loud of quotes from the rightwing femme fool.

Let's just take a look at some of them. Regarding her comment about John Kerry's anti-war position, she said,

"By 1973, John Kerry had already accused American soldiers of committing war crimes in Vietnam, thrown someone else's medals to the ground in an anti-war demonstration, and married his first heiress."

Ok... the last part was uncalled for. It has to do with Kerry's personal life, so no politics there. The Vietnam War was in my opinion one of America's biggest losses, morally and materialistically, and the army has committed a grave number of war crimes against the Vietnamese. The throwing of medals on the ground was probably a way of saying that medals are not given to war criminals, though I doubt that most soldiers in that war committed something worthy of a war crime. Yet, Coulter shuns such opposition, like most rightwingers do when their policies and views are being met with legitimate criticism.

Here's another gem of a quote:

"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war."

Wow... I can't believe that she wants more people to die. It's just that these short-minded neoconservatives want to polarize one's thinking into supporting them. This is evident in the last quote on the bottom of the page:

"Whether they are defending the Soviet Union or bleating for Saddam Hussein, liberals are always against America. They are either traitors or idiots, and on the matter of America's self-preservation, the difference is irrelevant."

It's that she's repeating the supposed rhetoric that Bin Laden and his crazy bunch spout out. Coulter, Pat Robertson, Bin Laden and loads of other extremists, I believe, are two sides of the same coin: extremists who just want war.

Now, when you take a look at the quotes above, do you believe that it comes from someone who seriously believes in Godly values? Does "carpet-bombing" and "convert" sound like tolerance and peace? Does criticizing someone for speaking out what he considers a mistake that his country's former presidents have committed make someone a traitor? Does it show compassion and respect towards those who oppose your views? Does making everyone else who does not support American policies an "enemy" who should be killed represent any ounce of humanity?

Granted, a lot of you who read this don't believe in God in the first place, and I respect your beliefs. But frankly speaking, if anything, it's the neoconservative rightwing extremists who hold such vile views who are seriously Godless. In that sense, I, a liberal, believe in more freedom, and a seriously strict policy of non-aggression against sovereign nations, even when they're being ruled by dictators. I am of the opinion that a multicultural society with absolutely NO discrimination can succeed. I am also against gun control, like a lot of liberals are, and am also against big government in general. Abortion should be of moral question, but that's a topic I will talk about later. As a believer in God, freedom of religion shouldn't be brought up for debate: it should be taken as a default. Also, such policies like affirmative action and (gag sounds) "positive" racism should be stamped out, because they are a precursor to discrimination.

So, tell me: who's Godless now?

Coulter, if you read this, I hope you come to your senses.
