      You are so right. Your criticisms of Ingraham are right on. Ingraham is maybe more grating , sickening and disrespectful than other Fox News hosts (and that's a hard thing to accomplish). But, in Fox News fashion, when you are totally ignorant, obtuse and oblivious to the facts, just constantly shout over your guest. If Little Miss Christian Soldier had an ounce of brains (a big "if") she might realize that this is NOT, nor has it ever been, a Christian country based on so-called Christion values. Is that so hard for so many Americans to figure out? Well, for Fox fans I'm sure it is. Read the Constitution. The Founding Fathers used some big words (in those days politicians were intelligent) but it's not that hard to get the general idea. Ms. Gaylor shows great patience and class with this arrogant "Christian" host. I wouldn't have lasted a minute with her.

      She is more than an embarrassment. She is an incompetent host, obviously biased toward religion rather than being fair thinking. She constantly and irritatingly interrupts her guest in an effort to be intimidating. Annie Laurie Gaylor is more than her match, far above her host in every way - a stupid host whose name should be erased from public memory, by the way.

    The news host is so defensive and hostile and narrow minded. She mentions volunteering and rattles off a bunch of missionary organizations. Missionaries push their religion on vulnerable people in the midst of their suffering. That is reprehensible. Annie Laurie is absolutely right that indoctrinating children is wrong. Children should be allowed to make up their own minds when they come of age. The host says 'we' celebrate the fact that we have a free country and we can say whatever we want...but spends the entire interview shamelessly mocking the intelligent and articulate and gracious Annie Laurie Gaylor.
