GOP slams Coulter over “faggot” remark
by Hanlon on March 3, 2007 at 8:20 pm
I really dislike writing about the Coultergeist, but sometimes you just can’t help it. After her remarks about 9/11 widows and such, it seemed the good Annorexic had fallen off the map, but here she comes again with a few ever so pleasant remarks about John Edwards.
Speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference before an overflow crowd on Friday, Ms. Coulter said, “I was going to have a few comments on the other Democratic presidential candidate, John Edwards, but it turns out you have to go into rehab if you use the word ‘faggot,’ so I — so kind of an impasse, can’t really talk about Edwards.”
Well that’s classy with a capital C, isn’t it? She apologized, though. Sort of.
Ms. Coulter, asked for a reaction to the Republican criticism, said in an e-mail message: “C’mon, it was a joke. I would never insult gays by suggesting that they are like John Edwards. That would be mean.”
Coulter’s remarks were, as you could infer, denounced by quite a number of Republicans, including McCain and Mitt “For and against gay marriage” Romney. But there’s something to think about. A bit of a pattern with ol’ Ann. Let’s take a look back, shall we?
August 2006, about Hillary Clinton:
Q: Does Hillary Clinton have a good chance in 2008? What are her strengths and weaknesses? What did her reaction to your “Jersey girls” comments tell you about her as a potential candidate?
A: Good chance of what? Coming out of the closet? I’d say that’s about even money.
MATTHEWS: Let me ask you about your private life. How do you know that Bill Clinton’s gay?
COULTER: He may not be gay, but Al Gore, total fag. No, I’m just kidding. As someone, no –
Matthews, of course, was talking about what she said a little earlier in July 2006 about Bill Clinton:
Ms. COULTER: I think that sort of rampant promiscuity does show some level of latent homosexuality.
DEUTSCH: OK, I think you need to say that again. That Bill Clinton, you think on some level, has — is a latent homosexual, is that what you’re saying?
Ms. COULTER: Yeah.
Now let’s think a little. Who is Ann Coulter? Well, she’s either 45 or 43 (depending on if you look at her Connecticut or D.C. license). She’s never been married, nor is she dating anyone, and she kinda looks like a man. And she also seems to call everyone gay and insist it’s just a “joke”.
Makes one wonder about the kind of personal life a middle aged single masculine-looking woman who constantly calls everyone “gay” might have.

Rev. Donald Spitz, you’re an idiot. Your little book is written by idiots, your religion is idiotic, and it’s practitioners are too. It’s the 21st century! Wake up and look around. Christianity has proved to be one of the most divisive, destructive, and mean-spirited sociological mistakes of all time. Saying some stupid paragraph to some cruel, imaginary bastard in the sky isn’t going to accomplish anything. I suggest reading something of value, like mathematics, physics, hell, maybe even some great literature. At least then you’d have something of an education rather than coming across as an anachronism from the dark ages (you remember those, that was when Christianity was the defacto religion of Europe). Please stop trying to turn the planet into the “kingdom of heaven”™. I don’t think humanity could survive another attempt.

Spitz, you are a hate-mongering malcontent, and completely and obsessively self-righteous (this is not a good thing). Your kind are the ones that should spend some time burning in a “lake of fire”. Christianity may do some good for individual people, but on the whole, it has been a plague upon the world since its inception.

Spitz, you’re free to throw out all the vile comments you’d like to, but I hope you realize you’re not going to find a whole lot of support amongst the readers.

Ann Coulter knows how to get some attention, that’s for sure.

I wouldn’t mind if people would just acknowledge she’s just a dumbass firestarter instead of treating her like a serious and high-minded addition to political debates.

Either Edwards is a faggot or he is not a faggot. I hope he is not, because being a sex perverted faggot is a despicable and disgusting thing to be.
Romans 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections:
for even their women did change the natural use into that which is
against nature:
:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the
woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men
working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that
recompence of their error which was meet.
SAY THIS PRAYER: Dear Jesus, I am a sinner and am headed to eternal hell because of my sins. I believe you died on the cross to take away my sins and to take me to heaven. Jesus, I ask you now to come into my heart and take away my sins and give me eternal life.
