		<description>Bullshit.  Ann Coulter was attempting to blast Edwards by calling him a faggot.  It was code for sissy or unmanly, but she used an epithet for gay males.  No one would defend her if she used the word nigger, spic, kike, etc.  It is only because she used an anti-gay slur that conservatives would even bother defending her.  Unfortunately for Coulter, it is becoming apparent that this slur is no longer considered acceptable.  This has nothing to do with the First Amendment; if Coulter was arrested for saying faggot, I have no doubt the ACLU would rush to her defense.  

 If conservatives do not want to be associated with outright bigotry, I suggest that CPAC refrain from providing a forum to those who use bigotry for laughs.  While I understand that adult debate is more difficult than the childish mores of Coulter and her fans, I suspect that many conservatives are prepared for it.</description>

		<description>Why should any conservative make excuses for Coulter?

Im tired of the political correctness police telling me what to aplogize for. 

Its not my fault some of my ancesters owned slaves.  Its not my fault, the Scots revolted from the Anglos.

When liberals castigate some of their own loose cannons, I might think about it.

		<description>The First Amendment is irrelevant unless Congress is passing a law -- read the Constitution sometime. It has to do with decorum, professionalism, decency, and maturity. If Ann Coulter were my employee and speaking as such at an event and said that, I would fire her immediately.

Ann can say what she likes on her own time, but CPAC is not her own time. She should have been tarred and feathered.

So would you feel the same if she had called Obama a nigger?

I always wonder about you people defending that indefensible remark, how old are you?</description>

		<description>I sincerely disagree.  

"&lt;i&gt;Coulter’s comment clearly referred to limp-wristed, spineless, whiney philosophical fags rather than homosexuality.&lt;/i&gt;"

I took it as a direct reference to homosexuality, and I think everyone did.

"&lt;i&gt;blatant anti-Semitic venom that flows so freely throughout our Democrat-controlled schools&lt;/i&gt;"

True, but bad behavior by one group is not an excuse for bad behavior by another.  

I like Coulter.  I think she is a brilliant woman with a very deep understanding of our nation and our nation's politics.  However, this comment detracts from her intelligence and hurts Republicans.  Instead of being able to win on the issues, it allows Democrats to skate by perpetuating a stereotype that Republicans are racists and biggots.  That is not true.  As Coulter put it, "my party freed the slaves".</description>

		<description>Many Republicans have shown moral character in this episode, joining Edwards, Democrats and patriots in castigating Coulter. Too bad Clark Baker is not among them&lt;/a&gt;.</description>
