I Agree With Elizabeth Edwards--AHHHHHHHHH!

Crazies to the Left, and Crazies to the Right. That's the way the hacks (political and otherwise) are making me feel these days. I almost think that looneys on each side of the aisle are actually drawing those of us in the middle together--you know, the ones with the common sense.


I was listening to Fox News on my way to work this morning and actually caught some banter between Edie Hill and Ann Coulter criticizing Rosie O'Donnell's use of her daughter for political fodder. You probably know what I'm talking about. Playing guerilla dress up to make a political statement. We've come to expect this repulsive and looney behavior from Rosie. Putting your children into a political statement is irresponsible in my opinion. But "responsible" isn't a word I would use to describe Rosie anyway.


Leave it to crazy Coulter to use this attempt to criticize the entire gay community. I believe the quote was something like Rosie "has set gay adoption back 20 years." Well maybe that's what Coulter hopes would happen. But personally I don't see what one has to do with the other. There are good parents and bad parents. When are people going to learn that gross generalization is wrong regardless of what side you are on.

Shame on Edie Hill and Fox News for presenting this woman as an expert on anything other than selling books. Here's something I thought I'd never say: I agree with Elizabeth Edwards on this one. Coulter is destroying the debate by inserting hate, just as the looneys have been on the left for quite some time.

P.S. Thanks to Bernie Goldberg for the "Crazies to the Left...." line.
