"Why CNBC's Donny Deutsch likes to bait Christians into answers he doesn't like,.."

I have no idea who Deutsch is, or what his show is like. I've watched about 30 seconds of one episode and changed channels due to extreme boredom.

But McCullough's premise is flawed. I've included a large chunk of transcript from Fox's website:

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,301216,00.html

Anyone who wants to challenge my analysis, and McCullough's conclusions, can trot over to that site (certainly not a liberal bastion) and review the "less selective" treatment of the transcript from there.

What I conclude from the exchange in the transcript is that Deutsch was asking Coulter about how the world would look regardless of how she had "branded" herself - that was, after all, the topic of her appearance on the show. What followed was an interrogatory about her perfect world, to which Coulter answered - without Deutsch baiting her - that the world would be better filled with Christians.

Now her stupidity in fumbling afterward is entirely HER fault, not Deutsch's. McCullough can only point to one other guest he claims that Deutsch "baited" in order to set a pattern in an attempt to bail Coulter out of her own stupid remarks. Unfortunately, she has made a career out of incendiary remarks so no one is willing at this point to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Liberal bias? Well, I guess you'll have to count Michell Malkin in that group when she complained about Coulter's behavior at CPAC. There were several others in line who were more than happy to denounce Coulter's behavior, including McCullough, who wrote:

"So... long story short - truly toooooo bad that Ann had to go off and in an all too obvious way create the storm of publicity for herself, while quite literally leaving the "movement" for which she is so well known in the dust having to clean up her slop, and put the parts back together again."

Separating Coulter's remarks between self-promoting garbage and unfair liberal bias must be a difficult job.

Good thing we have professionals like McCullough to keep us straight. Or you can just read her words yourself.

DEUTSCH: Let me ask you a question. We're going to get off strengths and weakness for a second. If you had your way, and all of your — forget that any of them —

COULTER: I like this.

DEUTSCH: — are calculated marketing teases, and your dreams, which are genuine, came true having to do with immigration, having to do with women's — with abortion — what would this country look like?

COULTER: UMMMMM (pause) ... It would look like New York City during the Republican National Convention. In fact, that's what I think heaven is going to look like.

DEUTSCH: And what did that look like?

COULTER: Happy, joyful Republicans in the greatest city in the world.

DEUTSCH: No, no, no, no, but I'm talking about this country. You don't want to make this country — it's not about Republicans. I'm saying, what would the fabric of this country look like? Forget that the Republicans would be running the show.

COULTER: Well, everyone would root for America, the Democratic Party would look like Joe Lieberman, the Republican Party would look like Duncan Hunter —

DEUTSCH: No, no, no, I don't want — I'm not talking about politically the landscape. What would our — would we be safer? Would people be happier? Would they be more —

COULTER: We would be a lot safer.

DEUTSCH: Would there be more tolerance? Would there be — would women be happier, would the races get along better? The Ann Coulter subscription — prescription. What — tell me what would be different in our fabric of country, because —

COULTER: Well, all of those things.

DEUTSCH: I can give — I can give you an argument there would be more divisiveness, that there would be more hate —

COULTER: Oh, no.

DEUTSCH: That there would be a bigger difference between the rich and the poor, a lot of other — tell me what — why this would be a better world? Let's give you — I'm going to give you — say this is your show.

COULTER: Well, OK, take the Republican National Convention. People were happy. They're Christian. They're tolerant. They defend America, they —

DEUTSCH: Christian — so we should be Christian? It would be better if we were all Christian?

COULTER: Yes
