Coulter: Bill Clinton Is "A Little Bit Gay"

On the Donny Deutsch Show, Ann Coulter descends further into gibbering madness:

Under prodding from Deutsch, Coulter repeated on the air something she had told him just before the cameras went on: She thinks Bill Clinton is at least a little bit gay. Her evidence? Well, all those sexual relations he's had with women, of course. "I think that sort of rampant promiscuity does show some level of latent homosexuality," Coulter explained.

Coulter, who said she was "glued" to the Kenneth Starr report about the president, claimed that Clinton didn't know Monica Lewinsky's name "until their sixth sexual encounter," and she finds something "of the bathhouse about that." "It's reminiscent of a bathhouse," she said. "It's just this obsession with your own -- with your own essence."

Deutsch -- the reasonable one in this particular conversation -- asked whether it's possible that Clinton might be "narcissistic" or a "nymphomaniac" without being gay. "Well," Coulter responded, "there is something narcissistic about homosexuality, right? Because you're in love with someone who looks like you. I'm not breaking new territory here. Why are you looking at me like that?"

Gee, I dunno, Ann, maybe because you're raving like someone in the last stages of tertiary syphilis?

I watched that interview and marveled that the extremes in our nation have some otherwise rational people convinced she's an insightful genius. To me, she came across as a mouthy nutjob who made points by making vile comments and talking louder than anyone else.

I muted it and just watched her mouth flap, then turned it off.

IT was freaking me out a bit...

You got me hopeful for a moment there, D...

And she's apparently repeating it over and over, most recently on the Chris Matthews show.

Let's just make this really clear: Coulter's position is, he sleeps with a lot of women, so he must be a latent homosexual.

If that ain't classic wingnut logic, I don't know what is.

I read a really good Clinton biography recently that I purchased for $0.01 used on Amazon.com. Seriously, it cost me one cent; I figured it was worth the money...

First in His Class

It was actually a very good read.

If sleeping with women makes him Gay, would sleeping with Lance Bass make him straight?
