So, yes, we've seen the now-infamous video of Ann Coulter calling John Edwards a faggot. We didn't get too riled up at first, because we thought she kind of had a good point! (Kidding, kidding.) Really, we didn't think too much of it, just because ol' Annie has spent the better part of her life in the company of homosexuals. After years of standing by her gays—and what right-wing woman hasn't done time with a gaggle of sniping queens? Hello, Nancy Reagan?—we figure Ann has basically earned the right to reclaim "faggot" all on her own. Unfortunately, she's lost just about all of her girl-gang by now. (She's alienated pretty much all the straight friends by now, for that matter.) But now who will hold her long luxurious hair back during those long nights vomiting after too many tequilas? Now who'll drive around with her in South Beach with the top down, screaming into the hot breeze the important early work of Madonna? Really, it's just all too sad to consider.

self-loathing manifested in outward bigotry because ann used to be.. dan.
She seriously makes me want to shoot my TV, Elvis/Goulet-style.
Fucking man-hands.
Also, Edwards has better hair.
Is fag not a compliment?
Not when 3,000 virginal Young Republicans applaud it.
@momo:
Coming from Ann it is...
How soon until Matt Lauer has her on to publicly suck her cock yet again?
@sjc: Which is weird considering:
Young republican = gay
When I see Ann Coulter, all I think is "jazzercise."
When you write about Ann Coulter, you give her yet more publicity and thus, enable her. This latest incident, has the Fox News booker on the phone to book her to speak about the backlash and to spin it in a way only Ann can. It's too bad those that decide what we read, don't finally and mercifully decide that she's no longer newsworthy. But sadly, that won't happen and we will always have to read and hear about what stupidity emanates from her mouth.
@mediahohoho:
Young Republican=Repressed gay
Since the Church is no longer an option, they have nothing to do but get politically involved, where they aspire to higher office so they can lead their lifestyle and trust their fellow Republicans to protect them. In exchange, they cheerfully vote in favor of legislation condemning themselves.
Isn't she 'Ann Coulter, 47' by now?
@Scooter34: You'd be amazed. I know a guy who is able to hold all these things in his head at once:
* Gay from the womb and in a relationship (albeit fairly abusive).
* Hardcore neoconservative Republican who believes Log Cabin Republicans are too liberal simply because they affiliate themselves with other gays.
* So Roman Catholic that he believes the mass should be said in Latin, women should cover their heads in church and every year practices the medieval version of the Linten fast which proscribes all meat, dairy and eggs for the duration.
* Is a member of the Federalist society whose favorite Supreme is Antonin Scalia (the one who said there is, "no right to sodomy in the US constitution."
* And, as a partner as a mid-size law firm, he can be expected to be some sort of power player in the future. Yippee!
My point is that there is nothing repressed about certain segments of the Republican party (cough, Ken Mehlman, cough). Take Howard Finklestein: he's in charge of the Stop Hillary campaign that will no doubt use fear of gays as a wedge issue to portray HRC as satan. He got married in Canada the summer before last. There's Karl Rove. Hell, I've even heard that George W. Bush is a cock smoker from way back.
My point is that they never think of themselves as persecuting their own kind, what they do is persecute gays who aren't Republicans. The GOP is as outwardly gay as any organization I've ever seen. I seriously think Ann Coulter, 46, was having a little cut-up with the girls, that's all.
Hold her Lhasa Apso-like mane back?
Hired assistants...probably gay...only paid ten-percenters will touch that abomination.
@Sally Tomato: There's a portrait of her in her attic called 'Ann Coulter, 76'.
@oovy: She totally tucks her dick up in her leggings.
Sadly, the only blonde currently able to hold a coherent sentence together is this one. As forgettable as her rhetoric is, it is sometimes hard to ignore the spoiled yet cute child that she is. As a gay, I hate her for her lack of imagination, but just hope for some head shaving, tattooing, methadoning, or other interesting behavior to arrive. Please Anne, go to rehab, or a better stylist.
I've said before, and I'll say it again:

i.e. there may not be a dick, but there are/were certainly testicles...
@oovy: Jazzercise malpractice.
Do you have to go to rehab if you call someone a douche?
@Sally Tomato: Nope, she was born in 1961, according to Lies and the Lying Liars...
What do to with Ann Coulter? Give her more attention and comments? Or just start treating her as a fantastic satirist?
"Do not proffer sympathy to the mentally ill; it is a bottomless pit."

What a self-loathing cow...I can smell her soul rotting.
If there's one thing the reaction to Ann Coulter calling John Edwards a "faggot" proved, it's that Ann Coulter is the political equivalent of Anna Nicole Smith. Hell, they more or less share a first name.
Sure, the attention we pay the two of them supplies us with nothing even remotely resembling intellectual stimulation in return but who cares?
Are we really expecting that from Coulter at this point?
America loves Smith and Coulter because they feel represented by both in different ways. It's frightening but true.
And no, Ann Coulter will not go away if we stop talking about her. Also frightening but true.
@josh speed: I just spit my powerbar out, I was laughing so hard. Well done!
@mediahohoho:
Golly, I can't even remember which fork to use at dinner. Your friend is..ummm..interesting, to say the least.
Here's to the return of the Inquisition!
Now, if we could have just combined Anne with Anna, into some super-blonde golem of retarded misguided hate that would just get sidetracked by fashion shows and paleolithic boyfriends. Maybe Heatherette and Amanda Lepore can kidnap her SLA style and give her a make over.
Here's to the return of the Inquisition!
No one expects the mannish inquisition!
@Scooter34: You may notice how I assiduously avoided use of the word "friend." Not because of any of the political bullshit, either. In addition to all of the above, he just didn't turn out to be that good a friend.
Oh hell, let's face it, the guy's a major fucking snob to boot. And opera.
I thot only liberals were allowed to throw slurs around, cuz they're like multi-culti and some of their best friends are blah blah blah. Edwards DOES look like a cigarette about to kindled by a bunch of sticks.
We had dinner last night at Murano, a new West Hollywood restaurant, owned by gay circuit party promoter Jeffrey Sanker, and lesbian night club owners Robin Gans and Sandy Sachs.
