Shocking- The FBI Overreaching! Ann Coulter manages to shove her foot further down her own throat.

As linked a couple of days ago, Ann "I'd like to call you Cunter" Coulter has trying to extricate herself from the shitpile she ended up in when she publicly felt the need to refer to Jon Edwards as a faggot. She says, hey, using the term "faggot" isn't a derogatory slander of gay people. It's just meant as "wussy" as if, equating a derogatory term for gays and the definition "wussy" wasn't homophobic at all- which it clearly is.
A distinction she clearly doesn't get.
Also, she's tried to clarify that she wasn't calling Jon Edwards a faggot- that if you look closely at her words, she wasn't calling him anything. Which is true- technically. But that one reminds of Talladega Nights, where Ricky Bobby says, "I said, 'with all due respect' before insulting someone- as if that phrase "I would call him X" served the purpose to say anything. So she didn't call Jon Edwards a faggot- she just wanted to- terrific. Using that logic, I wouldn’t be remiss in saying, "I'd like to call you a stupid money grubbing whore who'll say any fucking thing to get some press because I'm a lonely bitch shitheel with no soul and only the vaguest hint of an intellect- but I won't because it's not nice."

Also, The FBI is up to it's old tricks. Why does America feel more like the 70's everyday?
Some highlights:
The Justice Department's inspector general looked at the FBI's use of national security letters (NSLs), in which agents demand personal and business information about individuals -- such as financial, phone, and Internet records -- without court orders. Civil libertarians have slammed the practice.
In "many instances," it said, the FBI "improperly obtained telephone toll billing records and subscriber information from three telephone companies pursuant to more than 700 'exigent letters' signed by personnel in the FBI's Counterterrorism Division without first issuing NSLs. ... These actions were compounded by the fact that the FBI sometimes used these exigent letters in nonemergency situations."

Oh This Is Too Good!

Well, it's been a rough couple of days if you are a right wing moron wacko. All of this would be really fun if it wasn't for the wars still raging because of these same idjits.

1) Scooter "The Leak" Libby is convicted on 4 of 5 counts. Nice. Cheney's next, until then, I just feel like Scooter is sucking the drain pipe for the whole administration.
2) Ann "Cunter" Coulter talks about faggots. It's not so much that she feels the need to talk this way in public- I mean, big surprise, she's a homophobic jackass- it's more about (for me) the assholes that buy this chick's books and watch her on TV and how they reveal themselves for the jackasses they are as well.
3) And finally, and most deliciously, the guy who's been on all the right wing talk shows this week, Cpl. Matt Sanchez, is an ex-porn star. Which again, I don't care if the guy's a porn star, but I bet all the conservo-monkeys that have been lapping up his complaints, are once again facing what is surely, for them, a fairly ironic state of affairs. (Not that they can understand complicated concepts like irony.)
