Coulter at CPAC
Crooks and Liars is half-right: Coulter is not one of the official speakers at CPAC.
However, she will be the guest of the Young Americans Foundation on Friday, February 8, 2008 at 3:30PM at the Omni Shoreham Hotel where CPAC is being held this year.
But then, I already mentioned this three days ago.
I bet you $5 that the media is going to focus entirely on what ridiculous statement(s) Coulter makes at CPAC and ignored whatever else takes place. They did exactly that last year, and Moe Lane, James Joyner and I knew it the moment she called Edwards a faggot.
I'll let you know how it goes - I'll be there!
(I've reconsidered my hairdo and hair color since last year.)
In other news, Hillary's crying again.

Coulter is a fool, but at least she doesn't cross the big pond to spread her vitriol. Michael Moore, honored guest of the dems at the 2004 convention, told Berliners that Americans are the stupidest people in the world. I would ask the dems if they will continue to let him serve as unofficial ambassador.
Anon, they probably would jump at the idea. After all, he loves that "free Cuban healthcare" the Dems would love to imitate.
I think the Coulter thing is a publicity stunt. She hasn't been on TV flapping her gums in a while - I'm sure she's missed the attention.
Add up the book sales of other published authors who will be speaking at CPAC. I wonder how they'll compare to Ann's alone.
I'm sure the Coulter book sales outpace anyone else's at CPAC, Jeremayakovka. Hundreds of people were lining up waiting for her book signing, even while she was speaking & calling Edwards names.
That's all she's about: it's always about her and nothing else.
As a satirist, for Ann it's "always about" employing classically liberal means to destroy contemporary liberal myths. That's how I see it and I'm with her 100% on that. Free speech, like freedom, isn't free.
As a movement conservative and lifetime Republican, Ann fights tooth and nail to keep their symbiotic relationship alive. That is, so that the movement drives the party and the party drives the movement. I'm not with her 100% on that, but I don't expect her to change her ways - nor would I want her to change them.
Last year you posted the You Tube clip of Edwards prepping his coif before going on camera, the one where he uses a woman's compact mirror. You've posted other visuals mocking his masculinity (or imputing a woeful lack of it). Clearly, Fausta, you find purpose and humor in all that and even take pleasure in doing so.

I sure do, Jeremayakova, but I do see a huge difference between showing him making a fool of himself, and actually going out and calling him a faggot while making a public speech that was broadcast to the whole country.
Vive la difference!
Mitt Romney, who preceded her, said with emphasis and a smile that her appearance would be "a good thing." Not "nice," as in pleasant, but "good" - borrowing from the Biblical sense, as in it, ".... And it was good," as in righteous.
The joke was qualified by "if" and "the word 'faggot'." Nor did she say exactly how she would apply the adjective, whether it would be qualified or not.
Schwarzenegger specifically labeled several Democratic opponents "girlie men." Is that permissible? Impermissible? Worse? Better?
Split hairs all you want, Jeremayakovka, but the woman remains a self-absorbed polemicist whose entire game is "all about Ann", all the time.
