after you look at<br>
other things she has said or written. Here's her gem about
Muslims:<br>
<br>
'We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them
to<br>
Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing
only<br>
Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we
killed<br>
civilians. That's war. And this is war.'<br>

As Carl has said, saying outrageous things is her shtick. But to look
at<br>
the quote that got this discussion going and finding harmless
explanations<br>
is like digging through her excrement and looking for diamonds. Either
way<br>
you're covered with her crap.<br>
