Edwards Calls Coulter 'She-Devil'

Former Sen. John Edwards on Friday fired the latest round in his ongoing verbal feud with Ann Coulter, calling her a "she-devil" at a public event before quickly adding that he shouldn't engage in name-calling.

Edwards, D-N.C., was railing against the right-wing media -- including Fox News and Rush Limbaugh -- when he reminded a crowd in Burlington, Iowa, that his wife stood up to Coulter in a public spat earlier this summer.

"We know these people. We know their game plan. They're going to attack us personally," Edwards said. "They attacked Elizabeth personally, because she stood up to that she-devil Ann Coulter. … I should not have name-called. But the truth is -- forget the names -- people like Ann Coulter, they engage in hateful language."

In June, Coulter went on ABC's "Good Morning America" and said she had learned her lesson after being blasted for suggesting in a joke before the Conservative Political Action Conference that Edwards was a "faggot." "If I'm gonna say anything about John Edwards in the future, I'll just wish he had been killed in a terrorist assassination plot," Coulter said.

That prompted Edwards' wife, Elizabeth, to call in to MSNBC's "Hardball" and challenge Coulter directly. "I want to use the opportunity … to ask her politely to stop the personal attacks," Mrs. Edwards said.

The call left Coulter uncharacteristically flustered -- and was quickly turned into a fund-raising appeal by the Edwards campaign.

That’s very presidential bothering to call a pundit a she devil.

ABC is still mischaracterizing what Ann Coulter said. They left out what Coulter was referring to about the terrorist assisination. Coulter, in tossing out the terrorist remark, was referring to Bill Maher’s earlier comments about Vice President Cheney dying in an assassination plot.

Is anyone keeping a list of the kinky nicknames guys have for Ann? What is it about that lady that brings out the animal in men?

Edwards was caught today in a position with his pants down.

Taking lessons from the Bill Clinton school of government, eh?

Edwards should just shut up! Every Democratic debate, he’s “hogging” his television time by saying, “Let me finish. Let me finish.” after his time is up. So far, none of the other candidates have been so rude.

Let's show a little gentleness here guys. Edwards was experiencing difficulties because of “that time of the month.”

I saw part of this and Ann was perhap uncharacteristically surprised but not particularly flustered as I could tell.

Oooohhh, CAT FIGHT!

She-devil vs. the Breck Girl.

Let’s make it a pay-per-view event and pay for Edwards’ one-way ticket to oblivion...although at this rate, he’ll get there faster if left to his own devices.

"Edwards was caught today in a position with his pants down."

Oh dear, Edwards had a Britney Spears moment. Did it show his C-Section scar?

I can’t wait for Ann’s response!

Something like:

“It’s not true that I’m related to John Edwards, despite his claims to the contrary!”

That's not what I saw.

E. Edwards says snidely "We don't run in the same circles.." Ann replies without missing a beat, "Yes, I don't have that much money," E. Edwards is flustered.

Sorry, I will henceforth take that into consideration. Properly chastised. ;-)
