KT,

Coulter didn't actually call John Edwards a faggot. She said she didn't want to be sent to rehab for using the word faggot. That was an obvious joke about Edwards views on the war because an actor had just been sent to rehab for using that word and it is generally associated with less macho characteristics. She made it even clearer that it was joke when she apologized to the homosexual community for associating them with John Edwards.

She did "her thing".

What she was saying was that Edwards is an appeaser that would lack the courage to go to war and take casualities under almost any circumstances and not just in Iraq now.

However, saying it that way wouldn't be very funny to the far right, people that think sending an actor to rehab for saying that word was idiotic, or very timely given that no one had recently been sent to rehab for calling someone an appeaser.
