This picture makes my blog look ugly

Most people are aware of Ann Coulter’s now famous comments about democratic senator John Edwards. In case you’re not most people, she called him a faggot. "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 the you use the word faggot -- so kind of an impasse, can't really talk about Edwards," Coulter said.

Coulter is known for her psychotic posture on everything from patriotism to terrorism to race. Here are a few Coulter gems:

"My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building."

“Airports scrupulously apply the same laughably ineffective airport harassment to Suzy Chapstick as to Muslim hijackers. It is preposterous to assume every passenger is a potential crazed homicidal maniac. We know who the homicidal maniacs are. They are the ones cheering and dancing right now. We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war”

(ed-- uh, we didn’t locate or punish Hitler. He killed himself. Just thought you should know, Ann). Isn’t she a peach? (Almost rhymes with “psychotic bitch.” Almost).

Anyway, my stink here isn’t actually with Ann, because there’s no helping her. She’s about as likely to convert to normal as Tom Cruise. And that’s unlikely.

But this level of infectious venom should disgust everyone as much as it disgusts me (at the very least, it should make everyone uncomfortable). And where are the Republicans condemning these divisive comments? Well, Dennis Prager was on Larry King tonight talking about all the horrible things that liberals say, rather than denouncing Ann and her comments. And that’s the way with all of us. When Michael Moore becomes overzealous in his arguments and starts drifting into fabricated documentary, liberals should be the first to jump on any inaccuracies (and there are many). Likewise, it behooves the GOP to remove their support for nuts like Limbaugh, Pat Robertson or Coulter, in moments when their comments stray into psycho-land (and there are many).
