Speaking today at the Conservative Political Action Conference, right-wing pundit Ann 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." Audience members said "ohhh" and then cheered.Hat tip to ....thinkprogress.org.
C-U Next Tuesday Ann!

1. Coulter is all you need to know about conservative's "moral values."

2. I resent the implication that publicity whore Ann Coulter speaks for all conservatives. Many of us think she is vile.

3. I'm a pretty moderate guy. Sometimes I vote more conservatively, sometimes more liberally. It depends on the issue. BUT..if Ann Coulter supports an issue, my whole family opposes it (6 registered voters), because she is the most repulsive, vile person in the public eye. Why would she call this candidate by such an ugly name. I'm sure she calls Obama a nigger, too. Conservatives... if you ever want my vote, stop listening to or buying books frorm this Hitleresque bigot.

4. I realize there are significant substantive differences between the parties and even within the parties. Shouldn't we be able to discuss these differences in a civil manner. This type of personal attack is beyond reprehensible. Do people really listen to or respect Ann Coulter; if so, how can they expect to be taken seriously?

5. George: Hitleresque? I get it! Call anyone on the right "hitleresque" and you win the big battle of ideas? Spare me. Lilly, Read "Godless" and then honestly say she shouldn't be taken seriously. P. Campbell, you have every right to think she's vile but you'd be wrong. Steve J. the left treats moral values like babies in the womb.

6. Larry,
I will read one of her books. Perhaps, I will find that she can make an intelligent point rather than just attract attention by making personal attacks.

7. Larry, I'm exercising my right to think she is vile. By the way, I'm pretty sure I'd be right.

8. Once again Coulture, the self-promoting, self-absorped,badly bleached blonde, neo-nazi political pundit has to put down gay men and a former senator by using the "F" word to keep her pathetic face on the news. As a gay male/psychiatric nurse, I suggest that MS Coulture get help and quick (never put down another to attempt to elevate yourself). I can't help but wonder what she would do if one of her children were continuously called vile names, that she and her other back-water ignorant conservatives continue to use. Each time it devalues actual human beings ( 1 out of 10)who are all around you working hard to make this world/country a better place. She obviously ran into a Homosexual hairdresser who knew who she was,'cause her roots are still grey and her ends are split....just hope you never get sick, Ann, you just might need a gay man or lesbian on the other side of the bed rail.

9. I agree with Larry... and until you've read "Mein Kampf" I wouldnt go around knocking Hitler.

10. I used to admire Ann many years ago. Now, I think she just thinks up things to get her name out there for publicity,geting on talk shows and selling books. She is too far out there. The remark about John Edwards was uncalled for and mean. It was said with nothing to back it up. Thank God, she has no children. She can not find a husband. I do not know of a man who would want to wake up next to her. Yes, she does not like blacks. I do not even think she likes herself. Yes, she is badly in need of a new hair stylist and a meal instead of booze.

11. She is just grasping at straws for attention. What a horrible wretched drunk. She is the worst this country has to offer. What a shameful representation of "conservative". She is anything but.

12. Ann Coutler is a vile attention and publicity hungry whore. Everything she does is for shock value, she is playing a role, and its a laughable one.

13. Who is suddenly shocked - shocked! - that coarseness and vulgarity has not only become acceptable in our culture, but actually sells?
Coulter doesn't say these things by accident. It's her shtick. You react to it, she's happy. Whether you love it, hate it, are reviled by it or otherwise matters not.
This case is extraordinarily tasteless, even for her, though. How pitifully uncreative to be unable to ridicule Edwards without offending gays in the process . . .

14. I recently ran into Ann while shopping around the Ft Lauderdale area. I told her that they have a surgical procedure for reducing that adam's apple of hers. She then replied, "shut-up or I'll cut your dick off!" My christian response ???..."DO UNTO OTHERS!!"
