On Ann Coulter - Idiotic. Disgusting. Stupid. Moronic. (conservatives respond)
Hugh Hewitt Townhall site ^ | Friday March 2nd, 2007 | Dean Barnett

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.)

Michelle Malkin -

***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.

Bryan Preston of 'Hot Air' -

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.

The fact that Duncan Hunter, Rudy Guliani, Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney, Ton Tancredo and other conservatives were speaking just before and after her appearance at CPAC. That is what's SO BAD. Coulter embarrassed everyone at the event and made all conservatives look BAD.

I guess it's a waste of time to even mention this. It will never get through the thick skulls.

The outrage, genuine or feigned, speaks more to the poor level of educated discourse and the richness of the language than it does to the unfortunate who person makes the mistake of thinking otherwise.

Edwards is just trying to fill that massive hole where his Catholic votes used to be, thanks to his bloggers' (hypocritical drumroll).....hate speech against Catholics.

Did you ever imagine in the 1970s that the day would come when the defense of homosexuality would become a Democrat political cause? That liberals and libertarian antiwar types would rise to the defense of Islamofascism? That the killing of innocent babies would be regarded as a "right" by the left?

Neither did I!

Sometimes 'faggot' is used synonymously with 'girly man'. Maybe that's what Ann was joking about.

Three hundred responses and none of the political correct moribund has dumped on the Governator for being politically insensitve... and saying exactly the same thing.

Maybe it's easier to pick on a 105 pound helpless woman?

Well keep posting it, over and over again. Maybe repost another thread, like you did with this one.

It's clearly very important to you to expose Ann Coulter's crime against humanity.

Have you ever posted on another subject here at FR?

Little Annie calls Edwards a fag, which is actually an insult to fags, not him, and its the end of the world? The PC conservatives are all trying to pretend they are just as offended as the liberals. The fact is NO ONE, NOT A SOUL, IS REALLY OFFENDED. It's all a PC game. Annie set the trap, and they all rushed right into it.

Annie is singlehandedly killing off poisonous, stalinist PCsim in this country, yet there are conservatives that are more aghast at her, and not the PCism. F**K that noise.

OK, but Alec Baldwin does not get to take Kim Basinger with him even as a house guest. She stays here to be re-educated at a camp run by Ann of New Canaan and another Connecticut girl Laura Ingraham of Glastonbury. There is something in the constitution somewhere requiring blondes that attractive to be conservative. Too bad for the Dixie Slicks!

Also, Sean Penn does not get to take Robin Wright Penn out of the US. She is gonna be Basinger's roommate at Camp Ann/Laura

I never did like her. Of course we agree on some things, but she presents herself strangely, as though she were trying to be sexy, while at the same time giving off an arrogant, untouchable vibe, like there is something wrong with her but she needs the sexy artifice for some unknown reason. If she tends to the anorexic, that is also not a trait of a warm, kind person who loves others. It's a trait of the self-absorbed. She is too harsh in her opinions and rather snooty.

Send this comment to the Duncan Hunter. He would disown you as a supporter of his campaign in a heartbeat.

Not me!! Or you, but it has been apparent for some time, that FR has been infiltrated, much as the GOP has. Sad really, and the very reason a lot of us are Conservative first and foremost.

I'm not offended, I am annoyed that she used a national forum promoting the GOP to say something so stupid.

Offended? No
Annoyed? Yes


Now here we are wasting time doing damage control when there are much more important issues to talk about and that sucks.
