Will Ann Coulter never learn?
There are some things you just can't say, not even in jest. And at the top of that list right now is anything derogatory about the "gay" lifestyle or, worse yet, anything that is considered a slur against homosexuals, a protected class of people with special rights which entitle them to live free from all offense.
Ann surely should have known this. After all, hasn't she seen any of the countless films or TV shows produced by Hollywood in recent years which promote homosexuality as a perfectly normal and acceptable alternative lifestyle? Indeed, the homosexuals in virtually every one of these films and TV shows are smarter, funnier, hipper and more humane than the heterosexual characters.
Hasn't she seen or read any of the endless media stories promoting homosexuality in the same glowing manner, with never a critical word to be uttered? Doesn't she know that our schools are teaching children that homosexuality is a completely legitimate practice, and one we must all embrace and support as such whether we engage in it or not?
Yet despite all of this, Ann had the unmitigated gall to get up before an overflow crowd at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday, while the cameras were still rolling, and say this: "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."

The full article is quite good.
There are several protected classes in the USA. There are several thousand words that conservatives are forbidden to say, but liberals can say without fear of retribution.
What is amounts to is that any time any member of a protected class says that he/she/it was offended by anything that a conservative said, did, thought, or thought of thinking, the conservative is given a severe xxx-reaming.
Sticks and stones and can break my bones,
but words hurt Democrats who have no stones
I'm stealing your above comments!!! LOL
I don't see anything wrong with calling them "faggots."
She could have called them "queers."
Could someone please post the approved speech list? I was going to ask for the list of 'words that will get you sent to rehab", but I think the approved speech list is shorter and shrinking every day.
Sorry about the multitude of Ann pings lately, but this effort to send anyone to re-education camp who dares stray from the PC reservation has got to stop!
Let me know if you'd like to be added to the Ann Coulter ping list.
Good thing she didn't say 'pillow biter'.
You're right. I hadn't really noticed. I wonder if thats out of fear of the homomafia?
Don't bother... many here are under the delusion that Duncan Hunter is going to somehow defend Ann for calling Sen. Edwards a faggot. Of course, when the good gentleman properly distances himself they'll call him a spineless Rino traitor who has no place on their party.
Not.
Leftists have this preconceived notion about conservatives that we're all "bigots" or "racists" and try to read that into any comment made,
but God Himself forbid if a "liberal" utters something anti-American or anti-Military and we call them on it (because it IS a given that "liberals" are both) - "It was a botched joke!"
Really? All people? Rapists? Pedophiles? Cannibals?
Thanks.
I didn't want to post the entire article because Free Republic seems to encourage people to posts excerpts and maybe I'll save some of the internet mag's bandwidth in the process.
No, they won't......that term was censored in later releases. They caved to PC in order to keep selling, I guess.
Did Edwards come out of the closet or something? Honestly, I don't think her remark is even remotely funny because it doesn't really makes any sense. If he was gay, then it would be funny. Since he isn't, it sounds like typical Coulter shrillness. I don't know why people like her so much.
So now, we're stuck in a world where gays can do anything they want and get away with it, no matter how heinous. They can say awful disgusting things to our wives, ourselves, our children, and we men can't do a damned thing about it without risking jail time. Yet if we call them what amounts to a sticks and stones name like fag, all of a sudden we're demons!

A well written article, thanks for posting this.
Looks like gays get the same rights as muhammed. If you mock him or them you may be prosecuted. Does this mean that gays and terrorists are similar?
"It's the new N word."
Newt? lol
That revolting boy from "Ugly Betty" comes to mind. Why did they have to do that?
She uttered 'Farhvergnugen'?
