    Quite.

    But he real question is, of course, "Is what she says true?" To focus only on motive is to avoid the question that really matters.

    Ann Coulter is all about selling books, and she's a genius at saying just the right thing to get attention, and sell more books.

    There's this great summary on Breitbart.

    Key quotes:
    Conservative columnist and 10-time New York Times bestselling author Ann Coulter steamrolled Fusion host Jorge Ramos in an appearance Tuesday filled with dramatic moments, none more interesting than where Coulter got Ramos to admit he doesn’t believe there should be a limit to how many Mexicans the United States will allow into this country—either legally or illegally.
    “One last question and you asked we ask on Twitter: Tell me anything new that is not known generally,” Ramos asked Coulter to wrap the interview about her new book, Adios America...Coulter trekked forward with her answer. “30 million illegals, not 11...More Nigerians than English since the 1970 immigration law,” she said. “Oh, that the people who passed the 1965 immigration law—Teddy Kennedy, the rest of the Democrats—they swore up and down it would not change the ethnic composition of this country. This has been the most dramatic historic ethnic change to any nation in world history. This is with lying to the American people—and without even consulting the American people on it, which is why I’m particularly enraged that every night I can see enthusiasm on MSNBC for ‘the browning of America, the browning of America, the browning of America.’ But if I say, ‘I don’t like what you’ve done,’ oh, that’s racist.”
    After Ramos said he thinks “diversity” is “fantastic” and “beautiful,” Coulter wrapped the full segment with a question of her own for him. “We have taken in one quarter of the entire Mexican population,” Coulter asked him. “At what point will we have taken in enough, in your view?”

    That’s where Ramos made his stunning admission. “I think that with the legal system—“ he started to answer. “Half the Mexican population? The entire Mexican population?” Coulter kept pressing. “No, I think with the legal system we wouldn’t need and we wouldn’t be having hundreds of people dying crossing the border,” Ramos replied.

    “That isn’t an answer to the question,” Coulter corrected him. “One quarter of the Mexican population. How much more do we have to take?”

    Ramos dodged again, essentially admitting he supports no limit whatsoever. “It’s an economic situation,” he said. “As long as you have people here who need immigrants and workers and as long as you have workers needing a job, they’re going to be coming here. It’s an economic situation.” Ramos wrapped the interview at that point.

    That Ann Coulter has guts? Or that the Mexican-born Ramos has guts for allowing her to air such blasphemous views on his show? That Coulter's arguing an incredibly obvious point: that mass illegal immigration will destroy America as you know it?

    So her light is strong enough to burn the progressives half a world away.

    Looks like someone worth following.
