Ann Coulter: Diva!
Update: Hot Air has more. Also check out Axis of Right, and Right Wing News.
Conservatives in America are fortunate to have Ann Coulter. She is witty, bright, engaging, and is even willing to go on that stupid MSNBC program, Harball with Chris Matthews, to articulate the authentic conservative view of the current political situation. Chris blind-sighted Ann during her Tuesday night appearance with a phone call from Elizabeth Edwards who called in to whine about Ann’s supposed commentary on her husband.
John Edwards is going no where fast. Despite his personal wealth, Edwards really can’t compete with the star quality of Hillary Clinton and Barak Obama. There is a video on your tube of Mr. Edwards primping to the tune of “I Feel Pretty” from West Side Story. He is a caricature of a candidate. He and Elizabeth have used Elizabeth’s cancer to raise money, and now they are reduced to outlandish cable news network political stunting to try to get some of the spotlight they crave.
Ann is often widely misquoted and misrepresented. The liberal drive-by media has been doing this same thing to Rush Limbaugh for years. They use their elitist appeal in the most despicable and disingenuous approach.
We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again, God Bless Ann Coulter! Listen to Elizabeth’s total lack of class, and arrogant attitude.

Great blog.
Excellent. Did you know that Mrs. Edwards appeard at the Gay and Lesbian Breakfast speaking about our health care system is in a shambles and that gay and Lesbian couples should have the same Social Security rights as “straight couples” such as widow benefits…
Cheers from the 20 gay men at the Drake restaurant and bar.

“Did you know that Mrs. Edwards appeard at the Gay and Lesbian Breakfast speaking about our health care system is in a shambles and that gay and Lesbian couples should have the same Social Security rights as “straight couples” such as widow benefits…”
Ooooooh the horror…that someone should actually say that gay men and women should be entitled to the same right’s that straight men and women now have…absolutely horriffic, the next thing you know she’ll be saying the women should be allowed to vote, blacks and whites should be able to marry, and that there shouldn’t be segregation in the armed services.
Tom,
Most straight men and women don’t get married for the “entitlements.” I got married because I love the person I’m married to. Why don’t gay men and women present their case this way? I didn’t get married so I could have better insurance coverage and a tax break.
Kevin, my thoughts to a “T”. There really is no tax break on taxes. For years there was in fact a marriage penalty until the George W. Bush tax cuts.
The Social Security benefits were meant for tradiditional families where the husband died much earlier than the wife. In fact, most men don’t live long enough to receive the benefits. But gay activists with HIV/AIDS want to be treated to the widwo benefits that were meant for 80-year-old grandmothers.
Instead, they are a 50-year-old gay widow with $50,000 a year in HIV meds billed the the U.S. meaning the middle class.
That is what gay marriage is all about.
I’m glad you called them entitlements, because that is exactly what they are.
The reason that you don’t hear straight people talking about their entitlements is because when they get married, they automatically get them, so there is no need to even address the issue. Imagine if only black married couples got them, or jewish, or curly haired, then you would hear an outpouring of complaints, by all of those not receiving them. There are over 1049 benefits that straight married couples have that are not available to gay couples. Are you willing to give them up, to end the debate? I doubt it.
Not all gay activist have HIV/AIDS and to suggest that that is the only reason that they wish to be treated equally is just pure hyperbole on your part. When you start treating gay men and women as real people and not the fictionalized version you’ve created, then your arguments might have a bit more credibility.
Not all gay men have HIV/AIDS. Of course not, thank God. But enough do that they can’t donate blood.
That’s a little fact you don’t want to dwell on.
Overall I’m not that concerned about them trying to cash in on social security. I just don’t like the idea of a 50 year old chicken hawk “married to a 16 year old gay” to donate his “widow” SS benefits.
“Not all gay men have HIV/AIDS. Of course not, thank God. But enough do that they can’t donate blood.
Along with IV Drug users, people with Hepatitis, people with certain forms of cancer and a number of other criteria that have been set for blood donation. And it’s not just gay men with HIV who cannot donate blood it’s straight men and women as well…something you don’t want to dwell on.
However, I don’t quite get the connection between HIV status and allowing gay people to marry. You’re dancing all around the issue without ever giving a definitive answer.
You ” don’t like the idea of a 50 year old chicken hawk “married to a 16 year old gay” to donate his “widow” SS benefits.” But I assume you have no problem with a older straight man marrying a younger straight woman, and endowing her with those benefits. Or, that it’s okay for a straight couple to marry so that one or the other can be added to their insurance because one of them is ill and uninsured. Or that they share property together, and instead of having to go through probate when one of them dies, they decide it would be wiser and easier to get married. Do any of those things register on your outrage meter?
Gay men and women pay taxes, just like you, contribute to Social Security, just like you, vote just like you, serve in the Military, if they pretend to be straight. Meet people, fall in love, enter into relationships, commit to each other. But, they can’t marry. Where is the justice in that? Where is the equality, that is espoused in the Declaration of Independence, that all men are created equal?
I understand, that when you have all these right it’s difficult to put yourself in the position of not having them, but you should try it sometime. Pretend that your wife is in the hospital, but you can’t see her, or speak for her if she’s incapacitated, because only blood relatives can do that. Or that the home that you built for yourselves will be divided up among her relatives after she dies, because it was in her name and you either neglected or couldn’t afford to make a will. Think about all the things you take for granted, and then ask yourself how you’d feel if the were taken away from you. Then tell me your objections to gay men and women having those same rights.
>> <i>She is witty, bright, engaging</i>
LOL! Please, stop! You’re killing me! LOLOL!!
Coulter is a waste of air, let alone airtime.

So what? <i>This is America, bucko.</i> Get used to the idea that that means <i>equal access</i>, whether one is an 80-year-old grandmother, the widow of a quickie marriage in Las Vegas conducted by an Elvis impersonator, or the surviving partner of a gay relationship that ended because of HIV, no matter how much that last one might offend you.
[...] When the media types are so willing to misrepresent a story as inconsequential as the words of Ann Coulter, it is obvious what do they do when mis-reporting the major issues of the day. Be sure to read Ann Coulter: Diva! [...]

Hey, for a 16-year-old to “marry” a chicken hawk for his Social Security benefits, you’ve gotta have dreams! Wow!
