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.

Bryan Preston of 'Hot Air' -
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.
Ann Coulter was definitely trying to ridicule John Edwards and also use a derogatory term for homosexuals. She was trying to get a twofer there.
I happen to agree with you about political correctness and the harm that it does. But I do not agree with you that the way to deal with PCness in this country is by being meanspirited. Coulter crossed the line of common decency and it's not the first time she has.
"John Edwards = Breck Girl"
Ok, I unnerstand. Effeminate but not homosexual. I am not sure what bearing has on his candidacy. His just being a dem is enough for me to discount him.
If I did, I'd probably be getting fired today.
I haven't seen much of that. :~)
Did I insult you??
it must be great living in your warm, cozy selective memory wonderland.
Check this out.
As for invitation to "hate" and "repulsive'...
Listened to much rap lately?
Oh, and by the way, I don't think it's astronomically likely that you would ever be invited to speak at an event Ann is invited to.
So stop worrying, for pete's sake!
"Heh... that Hillary pic.... All I can say is, nicely done, and EWWWWWWW!"
But of course I didn't post either of those mocking mock-ups.
Those were posted by that hater of hate speech and homophobes -- Ajolympian2004.
The very same worthy who believes Ann Coulter should be drummed out of the conservative movement and silenced forever for her hateful JOKE.
But pictures clearly are a different story altogether.
The hypocrisy around here is overwhelming. But people will latch onto anything to attack those they can't attack with logic.
I disagree. There are plenty of ways to skin a liberal.
Nonsense. Nobody got fired.
While you are at it don't forget these -

Many more. I'm not embarrassed by anything I've posted here at FR.
I was making a joke.
The Dim's often play dirty and the time is here to drop the 'Mr. Nice Guy' tactics that have failed in the past. This Double Standard and elitism must be exposed and not tolerated.
Not an PC remark for sure. LOL, the real question is or should be "is she correct?" Hmmmmm.
LOL, all these high and mighty, humorless, nose-in-the-air punks can go play in the street.
Go, Ann! I'll seeya in rehab. Har!
I saw it live on C-Span. Do not need to see the pathetic comment again.
No, Ann made a joke. You tried and failed to float a non sequitur.
"Her opinion isn't terribly important.
I agree, and that is why we don't need her speaking at CPAC. Let her stick to book signings and guestspots on H & C."
Does Soros pay by the word?
Or are you, the homo basher who calls himself "F**K You Dems" really this shameless?
And, yeah, your opinion and Alnick's -- are vitally important.
I just said it was well crafted enough to be "eeeewwwww".
There's a fine line between funny and not funny... As fine as the difference between being sharp, and being obnoxious.
