I haven' t blogged in a while. Going to try to get back in the habit, perhaps with short, less polished entries.
Ann Coulter is a crackhead, and made a crackhead remark about John Edwards's sexuality at the 2007 Conservative Political Action Conference. You shouldn't care about that.
What you should care about is the reaction of the audience. I didn't hear any boos or hisses in the relatively large audience following her slur. I heard some surprise, than some delirious, hooting laughter mixed with substantial applause. And as far as I can tell this isn't a conference attended by your garden-variety wackos, either. At least, both last year and this year CPAC has featured a lineup of mostly intelligent, reputable, and main-line conservatives.
The audience laughed; the audience cheered. Disgusting.
