We were asleep at the switch during Tranny Annie’s latest stunt (why Ms. Coulter, we LOVE the way your Adam’s apple trembles when you say “faggot!”). All we could think about is how awesome it would be if super-dreamy John Edwards were gay. Here, Aaron Shure makes a good case for Coulter as the real-life Borat. Meanwhile, in London, a naked Daniel Radcliffe goes on trial for blinding six Ann Coulters in Equus. [Huffington Post]

America loves gay panic jokes! Faced with the option of seeing Wild Hogs, a star vehicle for John Travolta, Martin Lawrence and Tim Allen, audiences decided that three wrongs, in this case, make a right. Reviews site an overwhelming reliance on comic “misunderstandings” that cause Travolta, Lawrence, Allen and William H. Macy’s characters to be mistaken for (the horror!) gays. Between this and his upcoming drag role in Hairspray, Revolta’s closet issues are writ large in multiplexes this year. In this case, they also kicked the ass of David Fincher’s Zodiac, which is A) brilliant and B) features much hotter actors. Go figure. [Box Office Mojo]
it makes me really sad that this did better than zodiac. what the hell does that say about us? ugh. (okay well, not “us” but you know…)
Calling loathsome Coulter a “tranny”, albeit in jest, is actually even more insulting to the transex community than Coulter, also in jest, calling Edwards a “faggot”. “Faggot” is an uglier word in her mouth than tranny in yours but as you note, we faffots would be delighted to have Edwards on our team. Who, however, in their right mind would want Coulter on theirs? The discerning trannies I know wouldn’t piss down Coulter’s throat if her heart was on fire!
At any rate, while Coulter could kindly be described as equinely androgynous, her looks soooooo ain’t the problem! It’s her putrescent mouth. She’s also called Clinton & Gore “faggots”, called Muslims “ragheads”, advocated blowing up the NYTimes, poisoning a Supreme Court judge, called Barak Obama a “porch monkey”, said 9/11 widows were “witches” enjoying their husbands deaths… ad nauseum.
I’ve read that Coulter has a gay brother & the she’s close to him & his German husband, despite her vicious diatribes against same-sex marriage. (Or was that just an episode of Brothers & Sisters?). Whatever. “Some-of-my-best-friends-are….” like the “I-was-only-joking!” defense just don’t cut it anymore. Especially not when she’s being paid truckloads of cash to do her Tourettes-hate-schtick for conference halls full of snickering conservatives & their leaders.
So….you Log Cabin Republicans out there still buying all her books?
I was shocked by how many actors I recognized in Zodiac….even in small roles, every time someone walked on screen I thought, Hey! It’s That Guy! (Thanks to Fametracker for H!ITG)
