Ann Coulter: BREAKING: JAYSON BLAIR NOW WORKING AT POLITICO! (Bonus Column!)

BREAKING: JAYSON BLAIR NOW WORKING AT POLITICO!
September 28, 2010


Excerpts from a Politico reporter who seems not to have been at the event he was allegedly reporting on, probably because he's homophobic:

“The broad surge in the conservative grassroots made it as far as PayPal founder Peter Thiel’s grand apartment overlooking New York’s Union Square Tuesday night, where about 150 backers of the conservative gay group GOProud gathered to laugh at Ann Coulter’s red meat riffs on Democrats, blacks, and the Obamas at a fundraiser organizers touted as ‘Homocon.’”

The event was Saturday night -- not "Tuesday" -- there were no "riffs" on "blacks" -- there were riffs on gays trying to be black – and it wasn’t “touted” as Homocon, it was “called” Homocon.

“GOProud is an explicitly gay group that isn’t particularly focused on gay rights, and Coulter’s speech – full of conservative red meat, and only the occasional Judy Garland joke – reflected its focus.”

More than half the speech -- and the entire Q&A --was an argument against gay marriage. Was Ben Smith even there? How did he miss that?

“Coulter’s presence at the event was controversial, as other gay activists pointed out that she’d made a series of anti-gay remark — she called former presidential candidate John Edwards a ‘faggot’ — which she explained away at the top of her speech as humor.”

I said absolutely nothing about the (fantastic) Edwards joke all night, no one asked me about it all night, and Ben Smith is probably the only person in the country who didn't get it at the time and doesn't get it now.

GOProud: Another group trying to corrupt the country and shout down the voice of morality.

Thank Ann

An amusing post. But I still think Ann made a mistake attending. And I seriously doubt that this gay political organization has no intention of indulging in gay politics, as they apparently told Ann.

Yes, I happen to have a few gay friends, too. And I’m not gay. But I don’t lend my support to gay politics, even if it claims to be “conservative.”

It’s like my position on gays marching in the St Patrick’s Day parade. Fine, if they do so in honor of Ireland and St. Patrick. Not fine if they hold up signs saying that they are gay. That’s not what the parade is about. And gay rights or gay politics is not reconcilable with real conservatism.

Proves the theory of MSDNCPBS types all being liberal, biased, liars and now sociopathic too.

Love the sinner

Hate the sin.

Coulter is 100% against the homosexual agenda.

That attitude is more than apparent, it's rock solid.

"Lost" as you no longer agree with her, or "lost" as you don't understand her thought?

If it is the former, you should consider changing your tag line to something more in line with your convictions; something like, "neo conservative, that really isn't conservative at all."

One of the reasons we can't support the homosexual in any agenda they may have is due to their constant attacks upon the morality of this country.

Have you never read, "To the pure all things are pure, but to the defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled."

What is your attitude toward Sodomites?

Thank you for you’re well thought out reply: basically, I
don’t understand why she showed up at a homosexual event.
My opposition to giving homosexuals special treatment is
“rock solid”.

In her defense in her own words... the point being illustrated was that Republicans have always liked gays -- not that they always were gay.

She is steadfast against gay marriage which what the discussion was about, she didn't waiver one bit

It's a shame that someone should hang out with sinners, huh? Hypocrites still around today, huh???

Mark 2: 13 Once again Jesus went out beside the lake. A large crowd came to him, and he began to teach them. 14 As he walked along, he saw Levi son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax collector's booth. "Follow me," Jesus told him, and Levi got up and followed him.

15 While Jesus was having dinner at Levi's house, many tax collectors and "sinners" were eating with him and his disciples, for there were many who followed him. 16 When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw him eating with the "sinners" and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: "Why does he eat with tax collectors and 'sinners'?"

17 On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners." -NIV

Doesn't matter whether he was there or not - they just make it up anyhow.

The only "air quotes" are around the word “reporter” in regard to Ben Smith.

Let me know if you'd like to be added to the Ann Coulter ping list.

Being gay is no more a sin than cheating your spouse..
-or- masterbating or doing porn or envying.... or gluttony...

Being gay is a bit QUEER however... no doubt about that..

You're a one issue voter too, I guess, right? Don't worry, the conservative movement will be fine without you.

So is Coulter's.

She had the guts to go into the den of inequity and "preach" against their sins.

That's been an acceptable practice for 2000 years, remember who put it into motion?
