Sounds like you skimmed through Godless, all right. Coulter's remark was more in the nature of an observation than a condemnation, and it was this: "women's issues" have come considerably more to the fore in US government action and policy since 18 August 1920, when half the national electorate was of the feminine persuasion. I'm quite unaware of any refusal by Ann Coulter to vote, in the past or nowadays. Doesn't add up to what you think it does, unless I am very much in error about her.

Ann Coulter believes the reason we have no responsibility to our environment is because of GOD.
She believes in our dominion, yes. Says so loudly. That is not the same as believing in "no responsibility." Especially not in this day and age. Remember what sort of people Ann Coulter annoys, and remember these people can't touch her. So they'll tell you all kinds of dubious rumors about her, in hopes of cheating their way back into an opinion dominance they should never have had in the first place.

Certainly it's not the kind of idea I would accept, for dominion, such as it is, must be coupled with stewardship, and intelligent stewardship at that. I don't think you'll find hostility towards stewardship of our globe in Coulter's writing.

I wouldn't know -- and I get quite a bit of Sean Hannity by both TV and radio.

They both blither on and on about personal freedoms, but what it amounts to is the strong taking from the weak.
No doubt somebody's told you that's what it amounts to... I've heard them out on these matters in a general way for years now, and can't point to anything indictable as "the strong taking from the weak." I've not only heard Hannity, I've read him, and nothing in his writing raises any Libertarian warning flags, even though he's more a Republican than a Libertarian.

Basically, I'd advise you stop listening to leftists. They don't want a Republic, they suffer from the tyranny of PC non-think, et cetera. Many and deep are their sins.

Now, if you honestly agree with the minds that think these things up, that doesn't make you enlightened. That makes you an asshole.
I gotta tell ya: I don't think you know the material.
