A number of newspapers have already dropped Ann Coulter‘s column from their ink-soaked pages, Editor & Publisher reports, but Human Rights Campaign insists there’s more to be done. Thus, they’ve started a letter writing campaign to Lee Salem, Executive Vice President and Editor of newspaper syndicate giant Universal Press.
In the letter, HRC urges people just like you to ask the company to oust Coulter from their ranks. But, knowing that you’re not intelligent or articulate enough to form a complete sentence, they’ve done most of the work for you: Thanks, HRC, you’ve certainly made our lives a whole lot easier…

Thank God HRC has stepped up and is actually doing the work that GLAAD claimed to be doing all these years. Battle on HRC!

I agree that this bold move—at the risk of being accused of opposing “free speech” blah blah blah—by HRC is welcome. But, come on, it’s SOOO 30 years ago. Not that it still isn’t a good idea, but, in form, it’s just another example of HRC’s impotent idea of “revolution by press release.”
How about stepping up to some plates that aren’t safely inside their multimillion-dollar, 8-story Emerald City—The Palace That Liz Built? If they spent half the time, half the money on taking their paper protests to the scenes of such crimes as they do on perpetuating their existence, then I might start taking HRC seriously. E.g., to last week’s neo-Nazi, er conservative Republican convention [one didn’t have to anticipate Cuntler’s remarks to know that our greatest politically active enemies would be assembled there] or the studios of the show hosted by Chris Matthews who allowed her to call Bill Clinton a misogynistic closet queen and Al Gore “a fag” months ago or the studios of Bill Boy Did Those Silly Cocksuckers At the Advocate Rim My Ass Maher the next time he has his “good friend” Ann on—THEN I might start taking HRC seriously.
Y’all know how movie reviews often say so and so, “phoned in their performance”—well, that’s just what HRC, and GLAAD, have being doing for years. And millions of dollars later we actually have fewer freedoms than we did five years ago.
