ABC helps Coulter promote 'Godless' paperback
Edited on Mon Jun-25-07 02:01 PM by RamboLiberal
----

At the start of her appearance on Monday's Good Morning America, Coulter briefly spoke about having been denounced by all three top Republican candidates over the Edwards slur, claiming that it didn't show a "shift to the tolerant among the GOP," since she was "denounced all over" for her words. The Godless author then blasted the media for focusing on statements by her, and not criticizing others when they make controversial statements such as the HBO talk show host and comic Bill Maher.

"Though, about the same time, Bill Maher said...and, by the way, I did not call John Edwards the 'f-word,' I said I couldn't talk about him because you go into rehab for using that word," Coulter said.

Good Morning America News Anchor Christoper Cuomo, a former political policy analyst for Fox News Channel, interrupted, "You said you were joking."

"I wouldn't insult gays by comparing them to John Edwards," Coulter continued, "that would be mean. But about the same time, Bill Maher was not joking when he said he wished Dick Cheney had been killed in a terrorist attack."

Coulter then added, "So I've learned my lesson, if I'm gonna say anything about John Edwards in the future, I'll just wish he'd been killed in a terrorist assassination plot," but Cuomo had no reaction to Coulter's latest "threat."

Not that it will make a difference, but after work I'm firing off an email to GMA and ABC. Well, on one thing I have to agree with Coultergeist. Se said in the interview.

Bush really is a uniter because we're all just waiting for this nincompoop to be gone. I think we all finally are on the same page on that."

Ann Coulter calls John Edwards 'faggot'
WASHINGTON, March 2 (UPI) -- Best-selling right-wing author Ann Coulter, speaking to a conservative audience in Washington Friday, called former Sen. John Edwards, D-N.C., a "faggot."
Coulter was a featured speaker at the 34th annual Conservative Political Action Conference. Following her prepared remarks, televised on C-Span, Coulter was asked to talk about Edwards.

"It turns out you have to go into rehab if you use the word 'faggot,' so I'm kind of at an impasse -- I can't really talk about Edwards," she said.

That woman is a liar of the worst sort.

""Though, about the same time, Bill Maher said...and, by the way, I did not call John Edwards the 'f-word,' I said I couldn't talk about him because you go into rehab for using that word," Coulter said."

That is calling him a faggot. Liar.

2. Didn't she call Bill Clinton a faggot too?
She'd be a lot more accurate if she stuck to describing Republican politicians and pastors, the way they're being outed.

6. He DID? That's not what I remember, he said "if we live in a free country
you ought to be able to express regret that the attack on Dick Cheney failed."

He didn't said HE wished it had failed, he was talking about taking down posts on The Huffington Post (by readers, not by staff).

8. I know that, I saw the episode. My main point is the venue.
I just ignore any lie Annthrax would say about the quote, because you know she's taking it out of context no matter what. :D

The important point though, is that he can say whatever he wants to on his own show. The reason she got into trouble was because she said her shit at a Republican event.

9. I am continued to be pained
by the constant attention opinion writers get, when the opinion writer is shown to be so constantly incorrect. She has no credibility yet the "media" treats her as if she does.
