Although this blog is generally opposed to censorship, some things really don't need to be said on the radio.
Some words really do belong only in discussions of why ignorant, lazy-minded, and mean-spirited people ever started using them in the first place.
In this video (I didn't watch it myself, but if you want to hear the words they're on it) Ann Coulter first seems to be heard as comparing John McCain to a disposable personal hygiene product that polite people rarely mention at all, especially not in the context of a war hero who is old enough to be their father. Then s/he denies having called him that and claims that what s/he said was a nonsense word that contains an embedded vulgarity.
Hello? Is this the same TV character whose big break involved denouncing the vulgarity of Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky? Where is the mature, educated, civilized explanation of exactly what Senator McCain did that merits criticism from the younger generation? Where is the difference between this performance and one Roseanne Barr might have done...after Prozac?
Makes me so glad I so seldom watch TV.
Coulter e-mailed The Blaze a challenge: "Perhaps you could take a poll for a better a one-word description for: a grandstanding narcissist who insults conservatives in order to be called ‘brave’ by the mainstream media."
Hmm...what about "Coulter"?
