Does she still think that? From the Star-Tribune:

Ann Coulter should be slightly less adorable today for Congresswoman Michele Bachmann.

"In the terms of modern presidency, Ronald Reagan has been a tremendous hero of mine, as has Ann Coulter. I just adore Ann Coulter," Bachmann said in an April 2006 interview with thewindbe-neathmyright-wing.blogspot.com.

If the political provocateur has declined on Bachmann's idolatry-meter since Coulter lobbed a slur in John Edwards' direction, the Minnesota Republican was not confirming it.

The truly revealing and unfortunate thing about this is that Coulter's slur drew laughter and applause above any gasps.

Dumpbachmann.blogspot.-com contributor Karl Bremer e-mailed me about the congresswoman's quote of adoration.

Coulter's comment brought condemnation from the left and the right. She's not having it. In an appearance on "Hannity & Colmes," Coulter said that the f-word "isn't offensive to gays. ... It's a schoolyard taunt. ..."

Why, I wonder, is an adult resorting to childish behavior?

1. All schoolyard taunts are offensive. That's what makes them taunts.

7. How old is Ann Coulter? 45? School yard?

She sees herself as being on a level with grade-schoolers? She is, "hero," to republicans? Bwahahahahahahaha@ republicans....I truly feel sorry for them....

2. How does the old Sherlock Holmes line go?

The one about being as distinguished by our enemies as by our friends ... "I'm proud he wants
me dead". Same thing here. I'd feel very upset to ever be on the same side of any issue
with Bachmann or Coulter.

5. oh, god, she is SUCH a waste of skin...

WHEN are the voters of Washington County going to wake up and smell what she's been shoveling for so long?

Jeeeeeeeeeez, I know there are a lot of knuckle-draggers and corporate drones in that district, but COME ON....

Anyone know where Gary Ladig is these days? Ready for a comeback, maybe? As GOPpies went, he was only middling revolting...

disgustedly,
Bright

6. She hid behind a bush to avoid reporters, she clutched a Bush,

she foams religious right wing principles, and now she loves Ann Coulter. She justs keep dishing out that fodder for fun and good laughs.
