But you won't extend the same courtesy to ANN.

It's not likely that Ms. Coulter will be "enlightening" the sodomites at HomoCon to the evils of homosexuality. Based on their expectations, they'd be in good standing to ask Coulter for a "refund" if she does:

Here's what GOProud, the homosexual organization sponsoring HomoCon has to say about Coulter:

"Gay Conservatives to Party With Ann Coulter at 'Homocon 2010'
The gay conservative group GOProud — whose platform is essentially "cut taxes, while being gay" — is hosting a party called "Homocon 2010" with Ann Coulter, "The Right Wing Judy Garland." Fun! But isn't Ann Coulter mean to gay people?

Slate's Dave Weigel asked GOProud executive director Jimmy LaSalvia about an incident in Ann Coulter's past involving a certain gay epithet, and whether GOProud cares:

Coulter's never been as concerned with social issues as the median conservative pundit. She does, however, like to use gay stereotypes when she mocks liberals — she was slapped on the wrist for calling John Edwards a "faggot" at the 2007 Conservative Political Action Conference. No big deal, says LaSalvia.

"We are not concerned about what the PC crowd has to say," he says. "This is about having fun. I don't agree with everything she has said in her lifetime, just like she doesn't agree with everything I've ever said....but we can still party together, right?"

He raises an interesting point, about humans being able to have fun together, despite having battled on political things in the past. We'll have to consider this provocative new idea.

Perhaps.

I'm not yet convinced that she won't say SOMETHING to tweak their "lifestyle."

But, I will GUARANTEE that she will challenge them on gay marriage.
Here's a (somewhat garbled) first-hand account of what Ann said a few months ago -- at a "question and answer" session after her speech at UCLA:
...Ann Coulter likes gay people. She has lots of gay friends!

So many gays support her that if you went to West Hollywood and said you didn't like her, all the hair stylists would refuse to cut your hair.

But she doesn't want them to marry. They don't want to marry, they told her themselves. They just support gay marriage because it's a nice symbol of public acceptance.

Isn't that the whole point of being gay anyway, that you don't have to marry?

She's not anti-gay, she's just pro-family.

She also opposes single mothers. Did you know that such and such criminal was raised by a single mother?

Who knows what weird stuff will happen to children raised by gay couples?

Having heard Ann speak in this kind of forum in the past, I'm sure that HER timing and delivery were MUCH BETTER than this left-leaning graduate student's paraphrasing would indicate....
...but I think that her position on gay marriage comes through CRYSTAL CLEAR.
