The litmus test for conservatism now is whether you criticize or applaud Ann Coulter's joke.
I see.
No, the litmus test is that "conservatives" go way out of their way and go through all sorts of justifications and gyrations to explain why Ann's remarks (say it with a slight upturned nose and an all-knowing countenance) "just aren't proper."
We're either conservatives and base our thoughts and actions on substance, or we fret and wither when things aren't "proper" and fit for a church service, like the liberals do, selectively. It makes me sick.
