Coulter Calls Edwards a ‘Faggot’ at Right-Wing Meeting
Ann Coulter tried out some reliably juvenile new material at Friday's Conservative Political Action Conference "I was going to have a few comments on the other Democratic presidential candidate, John Edwards," she cracked, "but it turns out you have to go into rehab if you use the word faggot, so I can't really talk about Edwards" .Ann Coulter tried out some reliably juvenile new material, complete with hate speech, on her far-right audience at Friday’s Conservative Political Action Conference.

Coulter’s homophobic tear didn’t start here, unfortunately; she has lobbed similar taunts at Al Gore and the Clintons in recent months.

The very idea is anathema to the wealthy elites who prop up the United States' oil-drenched economy.
