I agree with you; I was very disappointed in Ann Coulter's reference to Harriet Miers as the "cleaning lady," and this latest comment seems to me to be on the same lines-- for shock value alone. I think sometimes sge tries a bit too hard. Her comment, though, hardly deserves the stop-the-presses treatement it is receiving. As another poster pointed out (in a great observation) it is as nothing compared to Edwards' bloggers.
But it is o.k. to have a presidential candidate in that same venue who dresses up like a girl and lived with two homosexuals???
(I disagree with Ann on the Harriet Miers thing... it was more like playing a game of "Old Maid.")
