Whatever you think of her original comment, that explanation is unbelievably disingenuous. She must think people are flaming idiots or something.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

I liked her last line best;

"Apparently our top three Republican nominees aren't that smart," Coulter said. "And by the way, if they're going to start apologizing for everything I say, they better keep that statement handy cause there's going to be a lot more in the next year."

What are you talking about? That is EXACTLY how I took it!

It is commonly used as a term to state "wimp" or "weakling".

Edwards is a light weight.

Calling him the Breck Girl does not mean he is a cross dresser it is to state he is weak and only an image over substance.

[Non-Sequitur]

Someone should explain to Coulter that she isn't in England. In the U.S. faggot means exactly what she thought it meant when she said it.

Ann, just stop. Nevermind, she's an attention whore always on the prowl for her next john.

[Bender2]

Gad! The horror...

According to NATO, Ann called John Boy a MiG-15...

She must be punished by having to spend two weeks at my place!

That'll teach her to mind her Ps & Qs, eh?

[N. Theknow]

Political Correctness:

When a reprobate that lives a perverted lifestyle can be insulted. And the person who tells the truth about them must attend a rehab for attitude adjustment while the pervert continues in his ways and is exalted as someone being on the "high road."

I don't care if the word faggot is derogatory to homosexuals or effiminate males, their lifestyle is repulsive, reprehensible and abominable. And the only feelings of sorrow I have is for anyone who chooses that lifestyle and/or tries to make excuses for it as, not only an acceptable lifestyle, but one to be lauded and sanctioned.

[Edit35]

Attitudes like yours (TChris) is the very reason the GOP and conservatives are losing.

You would rather run and hide and apologize for every media-generated controversy rather than stand up and fight.

To me, this great country, and the great conservative principals which have kept it safe are too inspirational to simply surrender each time seditionists like the lame-stream media-Democrats decide to throw a hissy fit.

I'm almost ashamed each time I hear another conservative slam down on Coulter, who after all is a columnist and not even elected to anything.

To me, the argument put forth by right thinkers that "liberal Democrats say these kind of things ALL THE TIME with no media outrage" is EXACTLY THE POINT in this whole charade.

The common knowledge political class has deemed that only white conservative Republicans can offend, and that everyone else gets a pass.

To me, that is the entire 'take away' message from the Coulter episode, and one I think should have conservatives hoppping mad.

Lastly,

I think it's an acceptable explanation. Now let's move forward to more important matters.

"Apparently our top three Republican nominees aren't that smart," Coulter said. "And by the way, if they're going to start apologizing for everything I say, they better keep that statement handy cause there's going to be a lot more in the next year."

I too was disappointed in the rapidity that these 3 fell to their knees and begged for forgiveness from the reprobates in the old media. We have had enough of that kind of "leadership."

And to think, I thought she was talking about a cigarette.

What do I know...
