Idiotic. Disgusting. Stupid. Moronic.
I guess you could say that Ann loves to shock us, but at this point, whos shocked? She obviously cant behave well enough to attend a respectable political gathering. Its not a lack of intelligence. Its an indifference to self-control and a preening sort of narcissism that compels her to need the spotlight, even if its unflattering.
(For those of you who dont know what Im talking about, heres audio of her calling John Edwards a faggot at CPAC today.)

***4:15pm update***
Ann Coulter just finished her riff on Al Gore, tossed out some cute jokes ("You can understand why Hollywood is concerned about global warming. You know what heat does to plastic."), and ended with a cheap one-liner about John Edwards being a "faggot." (Paraphrasing) She said she would refrain from commenting on Edwards because "if you say faggot, you have to go to rehab."
A smattering of laughter.
Not from this corner.
Crickets chirping.

Ann Coulter is speaking at CPAC as I write. As is typical, she gave a brief speech full of her usual witticisms, including a few brilliant attacks on Al Gores green hypocrisy. All was good. Untill the last few seconds, when she launched into a joke about John Edwards.
Heres what she said.
Id say something about John Edwards, but if you say faggot you have to go to rehab.
Im no fan of John Edwards, but thats just a stupid joke. Its over the line. The laughter it generated across the room was more than a little annoying.
Last year it was raghead. This year its calling John Edwards a faggot. Two years in a row, Coulter has finished up an otherwise sharp CPAC routine with an obnoxious slur that liberals will fling at conservatives for years to come.
Thanks, Ann.

My comments... what should have been a day to celebrate a Reaganesque speech by Duncan Hunter, and good speeches by Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee was overshadowed by an unhinged comment by Ann Coulter. She is an absolute idiot for saying something like this at CPAC.
They had moments. There isn't any doubt about that at all. They were disgustingly sweet with each other.
I agree with you. She is one of the sharpest conservative wits around. That's why the democraps can't stand her. She nails them every time.
Because she looks down on and 'spits on political correctness'--I think she is AWESOME!
"if Edwards drops out, that may encourage Gore to drop in. His presence will tear the Democrats to pieces."
IMO, Gores in either way. He's just waiting for Hillary and Obama to draw blood and weaken each other.
Edwards doesn't have a chance. Gore probably has a better chance than Obama and will neuter Hillary's support.
I anticipate we will see cannibalistic behavior among the demoratic hopefuls in the near future.
We FINALLY have a mouthpiece willing to play the Lib game, and you guys want her to shut up??
When you start hearing Libs apologize for:
"Chimp",
"pResident",
"The Coke-addicted, drunk, Gannon-loving monkey in the White House"
(These are just from a board posted in the last 10 MINUTES)
Get back to me, K?
When the Madsen's, Moore's, Gore's, and the rest of the left start apologizing for THIER hate-filled comments, and seek Rehab because of them, I might actually begin to care...
Yes indeed!
Only raghead faggots will be annoyed.
LOL!
Uh huh. If Ann hadn't punctured Edwards, the MSM would be filled with glowing accounts of the great speech by Duncan Hunter.
Someone had to go to rehab for the word faggot?? What Country did that happen in?? Is that why she said it? And our side is hiding under their beds??

Perhaps those that don't understand her brand of humor should not read or listen to her works. Some take her words on face value without hearing what is really being said.
Very mild stuff compared to things written and said by the likes of left-wing heroes like Molly Ivins, Randi Rhodes, John Kerry, Michael Moore (and on, and on, and on...)
LMAO! This thread has become more fun than a barrel of gay monkeys.
And if you think sodomy is separable from morality and electing moral people, God help you.
If Ann is in the same category, then why isn't the MSM jumping all over them?
Maybe we need about 10 more Ann Coulters to get the other side to shut up already. AFAIC, Republicans don't know how to play hardball and don't deserve to be in the political arena.
Ann is frustrated that conservatives continue to play by the Queen of what's-her-name rules of debate. This correlates with the gradual decline in support the Republicans have gotten since 1994 and culminated with their 2006 mid-term defeat.
We have the winning issues on our side. The days of fighting liberal lies with stoic emails and statements are over. We need emotion, some knee-jerk conservatism if you will, in order to win over people and recapture control of government.
There you go making sense again....
Now that the joke makes sense, guess I shouldn't be surprised that her fellow conservatives got their panties in a knot. Hey CPAC go buy a sense of humor! Quit sittin around Harumphing.
