Conservative celebrity Ann Coulter has
suggested liberals would abort gay babies if a gay gene was found.
The 49-year-old Coulter appeared Sunday
on C-SPAN2's Book TV to promote her latest book Demonic:
How the Liberal Mob is Endangering America.
Coulter said she did not expect to have
a gay following, then added that it makes sense.
“If you're born gay, why would you be
a liberal? Are you born liberal? And gays are a demographic group
that have one of the highest incomes in America, they are victims of
crimes, the Muslims don't think too highly of them, so, you know,
basically the entire Republican platform is fighting the same causes
any sane gay person should care about and the entire Democratic
platform is sucking up to soccer moms and women who want abortions.
What do you care about that for gay person? Abortion isn't at the
top of your list, I'm guessing.”
“And by the way, as soon as liberals
find a gay gene, guess who's going to get aborted?”
“So, I think all gays who are born
gay are overwhelmingly conservative, maybe apolitical, and all those
angry gays causing trouble for everybody I don't even think they were
born gay, I think they're just angry at their fathers,” she added.
