"Democratic Party boss Howard Dean demanded that Republican presidential candidates denounce conservative columnist Ann Coulter after she referred to Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards as a "faggot" during a speech Friday at a national conservative gathering.
Coulter, who was addressing the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C., 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."

I didn't comment upon this yesterday, as I was looking for some video and/or transcript, to determine the context, but it is what it is.
Ann being a bad girl and taking her fans along for the ride. And how the weak ones raved! Here's the skinny; everyone, even Ann Coulter, has to compete with the instantaneous media for attention and it isn't easy cranking out a weekly column on topics that have been beaten to death by hundreds of others, so the way out is to take it over the top. Coulter is the right's attack dog par excellance, and to be fair and balanced, even one so foxy is really only saying what others have said ad nauseum but coming from a woman this seems to be heady stuff.
Cannot say "faggot" around the weak and the libs. But, to tell the truth, there really is no difference, because someone who cannot find humor in a funny topic usually happens to be a lefty and lefties wouldn't say faggot if they had a mouthful. John Edwards is a faggot. No, not the homosexual faggot, the prissy straight variety but faggot he is. If this happens to be far too insensitive then for heavens sake pay it no attention and move on. When Lenny Bruce was dragged from one comedy stage after another by the local jackboots he was declared a hero by the loons for daring to speak with potty tongue. Ann is a humorist, and to BE a humorist one MUST offer a daring side or guess what?
It's boring. Boring people don't know they're boring and complain when their gracile sensitivities are besmudged. Ann gets pelted with pies by pencil neck goons because she's a girl and it must be tough having a mans mind in a woman's musculature. Someone tosses a strawberry shortcake at me, I deck the wimp while laughing through so stooge a whipped cream event and all is well. Ann uses her mouth, and is by far the more civilized one. Must be tough for they who live in so sheltered a world that words drive them to distraction, and for that I'm sorry.
But fuck 'em if they can't take a joke.
