>Right now!
If the faggot title fits, stick it on. What did you expect from a couple of "John's" that the local "working girls" refused to have anything to do with?

Idiotic. Disgusting. Stupid. Moronic.
I guess you could say that Ann loves to shock us, but at this point, who’s shocked? She obviously can’t behave well enough to attend a respectable political gathering. It’s not a lack of intelligence. It’s an indifference to self-control and a preening sort of narcissism that compels her to need the spotlight, even if it’s unflattering.
(For those of you who don’t know what I’m talking about, here’s 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.

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 Gore’s green hypocrisy. All was good. Untill the last few seconds, when she launched into a joke about John Edwards.
Here’s what she said.
“I’d say something about John Edwards, but if you say ‘faggot’ you have to go to rehab.”
I’m no fan of John Edwards, but that’s just a stupid joke. It’s over the line. The laughter it generated across the room was more than a little annoying.
Last year it was “raghead.” This year it’s 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 is not an elected official. Therefore, her comments or perceived controversial remarks shouldn't be taken seriously. She does not work in any field of government and is not a representative of the people.
I think people don't understand what she's trying to do. I don't think she is trying to influence the fence sitters, I think she is trying to splash cold water on the Liberals. Making that poor guy enter rehab for saying faggot is ridiculous and should be ridiculed. That is what Ann Coulter did.
And I also agree with her comments on those four witches of New Brunswick. Maybe the Democrats will be less likely to push people into rehab for non PC speech and, also, not send out sob story type people in order to push their odious political agenda.
If these sleazy tactics are slowed up somewhat, we have Ann Coulter to thank for this!
"Are you seriously going to deny that these ill-timed remarks are going to be used against Republicans and will add some life to John Edwards campaign?"
IF it adds some life to John Edwards campaign it will detract from Obama and Hillary. Wheres the downside?
Well said!!!! Dittos!

She flaunts her 'biting humor' in this day of pathetic political correctness. She is a 'pundit'--not a politician--so if her comments offend those who worship at the 'altar of political correctness',,,so be it.
"Yes. Democrats say things that are far worse and nobody seems to care. My first rule - no double standards."
I don't believe thats realistic. People should have integrity and respect for other people. Being a pushover gets no respect.
Hugh gigantor bump to that!
Told my wife I refuse to read any Giuliani, Hunter, Romney, McCain etc posts today unless there's some bimbshell news. It's my day of rest from the too early overload of bull$hit campaign screeching.

Don't you get it. Homosexuals are the High Priests of Liberalism. So we should bow down too, soas not to offend Libserals. Guess Ann proved her point better than she had hoped.

Outstanding point! All of a sudden, life is sucked out of the campaigns of Osama and the Shrew. Edwards gets a little sympathy and a little more campaign money! It almost sounds Rovian!
IMO, you're the one missing the point. Libs have called Bush and his administration far worse things IN THE HALLS OF CONGRESS!!! Their treasonous comments are recorded in no less that the Congressional Record for future generations to read.
This time next year, only the outraged leftist MSM will remember or give a rat's patootie about Ann's comment. But, by the same token, three generations hence, future historians can read Cynthia McKinney's allegations in the Congressional Record that Bush knew about the 911 attacks and did nothing to prevent them.
Who was at CPAC yesterday??? Duncan Hunter who made a GREAT speech, Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney who also gave good speeches. And many other excellent conservative speakers and panelists. And here comes Ann Coulter, overshadowing everything with her unhinged comment about john edwards. Anyway, what else can I say. If conservatives can't recognize that where she decided to say a comment like this wasn't total lunacy...
YOU worry about yourself. I guess you support Gore.
>Looks like PC is alive and well at the CPAC. Thanks, AC, for bringing it out.
