Hypocrisy Rant

Let's take a moment to recognize the hypocrisy and evil of Ann Coulter.

If you didn't hear (and I'm not going to bother linking it) she made a "joke" in a recent speech. But it wasn't a joke, it was a bigoted slur. She called John Edwards a "Faggot." Why? Who knows what's going on in that insane, self-promoting head of hers. The point is that we should ALL be offended.

There is some debate on the actual connection of the epithet Faggot to actual "stacks of wood" but in this case thought forms reality. Anyone who's taken the time to consider this word, even in casual conversation, has probably made this connection. It doesn't matter if you relate the term to burning homosexuals at the stake in medieval England OR if you sing about it's connection to the Nazi Holocaust (Indigo Girls, This Train.) The bottom line is that the term is EVIL! Not just a slur, but EVIL!

I don't care what your actual position is on homosexuality. No one, especially not a Christian, should be using a term of evil. It is wrong. She is wrong.

And my rant is over...
