COULTER AT 14:59? TRY 15:01

In case you're wondering whether Ann Coulter has any fresh jokes, I'm looking at her brand-new column and I see that she calls Al Gore "vaguely gay."

Now, let's see: Last year she said Gore "seemed kind of gay." Then she said Bill Clinton "is a latent homosexual." Then she called Gore a "total fag." Then she foresaw Hillary Clinton "coming out of the closet." Then she essentially called John Edwards a "faggot."

This isn't a tactic anymore -- it's a tic. It's like a foul-mouthed version of compulsive hand-washing. Are there no drugs or behavioral therapies to help this pathetic creature?
