Elizabeth Edwards just became our favorite person.
The gay-marriage loving mama called Hardball with Chris Matthews to dig into conservacunt Ann Coulter for her less-than-politically correct attacks on John Edwards, as well as Coulter’s loathsome wish that Edwards would die in a terrorist plot.
Mrs. Edwards quite rightly accuses Coulter of “debasing political dialogue”. Coulter, of course, didn’t stop talking long enough to listen. She did, however, ask why John didn’t make the call, to which Edwards replied:
I haven’t talked to John about this call… I’m making this call as a mother. I’m the mother of that boy who died. My children participate — these young people behind you are the age of my children. You’re asking them to participate in a dialogue that’s based on hatefulness and ugliness instead of on the issues and I don’t think that’s serving them or this country very well.
The crowd went wild. Coulter shrank under the pressure, but swore to keep on keeping on being a nasty twat.

Ann Coulter has to be a nasty twat in order to get attention. The moment she (or wannabe Michelle Malkin) ceases to be one, her foaming at the mouth fans leave her and she loses money.

This just gives Ann Coulter a wider forum for her hate spew. Why cant everybody just leave her alone so she can fly away on her broomstick and disappear forever?

I can’t believe this woman gets national coverage on major television networks. I personally (with my 360k household income) am boycotting any station that has her on their airwaves and all their advertisers. Seriously this has got to stop. When are we going to start using our dollars to make political statements in our capitalist arena?

I must have been watching something else; I didn’t see Ann shrinking under the pressure. Elizabeth Edwards was lying when she implied, choosing her words carefuly, that John didn’t know about the call. Of course, he was right there listening. That’s not to give Coulter a pass. Who is to blame? 1) Chris Matthews for giving Coulter a whole hour. 2) The public, for eating it up.

Gee, I miss those Paris Hilton stories. Though Ann Coulter could actually give Paris lessons on a being a media attention whore.
I notice that Annie has been laying low since the last dust up re: the widows of the 9/11 victims.
…and who exactly IS Ann Coulter? First she attacks the widows of 9/11 victims, and now she makes light of the death of the teen-age son of a poor woman battling cancer.
I would love to see some enterprising investigative reporter pull up her skeletons… now there’s a program that would be “must see TV”.
Juliansorl, I totally agree…we need to start boycotting corporations that give a free voice to trash like this.

I know Mrs. Edwards has way too much class, however, she should drop kick Mann Coulter right in the Adams Apple and shut that fucking bitch up once and for all. If not for yourself Mrs. Edwards, do it for your country. Your husband would sure get my vote.

What is up with those ugly black dresses that she always has on?
Her tone of voice alone makes me want to rip out that ugly dead blonde hair.

Hunter Hoop: She dresses like a Vegas whore who thinks she looks “classy.”

Ann Coulter admitted in that piece that her books are all hate-filled personal attacks because when Mrs. Edwards asked her to stop the personal attacks, at the end Coulter said, “Okay, I’ll stop writing books then.”
If only she really would stop writing.
