"pretty limp-wristed response,"
No pun intended.
Yeah - kinda like calling someone a clymer.
My uncle (God rest his soul, wherever he's at now) was an "avowed" homosexual and was a member of a football team in the early 70s called the Flaming Faggots. It's a word that the community uses to describe itself.
They should have taken a page from Obama's playbook.
I agree. At the very least they could have said something like, "Oh, that's just Ann!"
Funny how things change,,a "fag" used to mean a cigarette,,could have called Edwards that ,, might have had alot of people scratching their heads...
Everybody is missing the point here. The real question which must be answered, sooner or later, is: IS JOHN EDWARDS GAY?
Until we get a straight up answer to that question, then, I think we need to keep asking it....
LOL!!!
Good find.
Coulter '08!!
Pray for W and Our Troops
But, I have to agree with her in a way...
How many words get put into the PC Bucket these days?
Homosexuals have Gay, Queer, Fags, Faggots, Rainbow Flags, blahblahblah.
We'll have to continue to invent new words to be able to talk with each other going forward.
Or maybe we'll just start to grunt at each other. That'll be very PC... except for the cavemen.
The English language is under attack - but politicians, PC maniacs and Dial 1 for English Folks. Period.
Family Medical Leave: Edwards is undecided on extending Family Medical Leave Act to same-sex couples.
Same-Sex Immigration: Edwards is undecided on legislation that would allow American citizens to sponsor their same-sex partners for immigration into the country.
Gay and Lesbian Adoption: Edwards supports giving same-sex couples the same rights to adopt children as heterosexual couples.
Don't Ask, Don't Tell: Edwards supports the rights of gays, lesbians and bisexuals to serve openly in the United States Military.
Its a shame we can't say that about our current frontrunners. They are busy pandering to the MSMs and the liberals!
Ann IS a beautiful woman and a gutsy one as well. She needs to start giving antiwuss lessons.
I don't care for the term "faggots" to describe homosexuals.
"Faggies" is much better, IMO.
you misspelled ingenious.
who, me? :) I only wish some cut TChris the same slack.
I regret that she used what is fast becoming the gay equivalent of the "n word" because it accelerates the process of making it into just another word that we'll soon not be allowed to say or think about by those who get so terribly offended by its use. We could call it the "f" word except the real "F" word has already claimed that usage....perhaps we could use "fa word" to denote Faggot and thus identify Edwards as a "fa word" wuss or a hypocritical shtick dreck. Frankly, Laura Ingaham's description of Edwards as the "silky pony" is much nicer. On the other hand, when we get to the new language we're developing, perhaps we could just use some nice sterile, emotionless numbers instead of words. Perhaps "342" instead of Faggot?????????
