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.)

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.
Apply for the job and find out first hand...
LOL! Another genius! http://209.161.33.50/dictionary/niggardly

Put that in your pipe and smoke it! The stuff that you have been smoking is affecting your brain.
"Can you help us raise $100,000 in "Coulter Cash" this week to keep this campaign charging ahead and fight back against the politics of bigotry?"
...just another opportunistic Democrat who will never be elected POTUS. Time to give it up, John, even though you will probably collect a few bucks from your faithful followers.
That's right, it doesn't. Ann's free speech has not been threatened or removed. Free speech is not at issue here--unless you choose to deliberately misread my post.
Pot and Kettle you!!!!!
She didn't even call him a faggot, only implied he was....
Your very screen name Hey "4Q" Dems, what does that mean?
About as bad as calling Edwards a fag. Is fag/faggot now the homosexual "N" word, while FU is ok?
BTW, I chuckled when I heard Ann's play on PC word olympics via Edwards, AND when I first saw your screen name. I got it right away. Notice how I never called you "hateful and stupid".
Point well taken.
Ann said quite clearly that she wouldn't call Edwards a faggot.
But the left told Clara Lou that Ann called Edwards a faggot and Clara Lou apparently believes the left.
I'm not calling Edwards a faggot either. I would NEVER call Edwards a faggot. It would be crude and overreaching to call Edwards a faggot. I don't want to be crude or to overreach so I refuse to call Edwards a faggot. Faggot is one word I will just will not use in reference to Edwards. Never. Not faggot.
"Silky pony" and "Breck girl," while less crude, do convey the same general meaning as "faggot." Both are a little dated, however. We need to come up with something fresh.
zzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz
I have little tolerance for Coulter's immaturity. I've already just about raised all my kids and have never had tolerance for the spoiled brat that demands to be the center of attention. Look at me, everybody! Look at me! Damn that's annoying.
Ann Coulter is a political comedian who, like Michael Moore, often offends, and sometimes crosses the bounds of decency.
Yesterday she entered the territory where Michael Richards went when he employed the n-word to abuse a heckler. When Coulter employed the f-word to abuse a candidate, she made herself radioactive because the word is a simply invitation to hate. It was repulsive.
I cannot imagine Coulter being invited to any panel or television appearance on which I would want to appear. Colleges and universities must also stop inviting her to appear as a representative of the conservative movement in America. She is not. You want smart, accomplished and funny conservative women? Ask K-Lo, Laura Ingraham or Carol Liebau to appear, or chose from scores of others. But not Ann Coulter --she represents only a snarl and a deep need to be noticed.
Do you think that the far right should be known as haters?
What you said!!
"My flame suit has actually started melting."
Good.
(A).. Missed the point, I see.. put down the bong and re-read. .
Same results?..
Go To (A)..
Her performance would have been better suited on the Letterman Show, not CPAC.
You got that right! Rosie saying on coast to coast television that Christians are terrorists right here in our own country??
