Joyner, along, apparently with the remainder of the sphere… and particularly the left, has been making rather a lot out of this.  I’ve been resisting commenting on this, but it’s just too rich.

Elizabeth Edwards called in to “Hardball” yesterday afternoon to confront Ann Coulter.

Steve Benen, whom I’ve skewered in this space before, whines…

This has been another installment of “There Is Nothing A Conservative Can Say To Get Ostracized From The Mainstream Media.”

Oh, please. Clearly, her being there serve the purpose of the left, by providing them a punching bag. Which, I would further suggest was the purpose of having Edwards wife on. We’re talking about a setup, here.
Interestingly, however, the point that Dave Wiegel makes goes a long way to suggesting that Coulters reference to Edwards as a wuss, wasn’t all that far off base.

Yes, that’s the way to rebut charges of wimpery: Send your wife to beg people to stop hitting you.

I mean, that’s just too rich for words.  Humor is only humor, you see, when there’s a grain of truth in it. Seems to me that grain of truth, has just been demonstrated quite clearly. in the funny part is, that Coulter, isn’t even the first to recognize this.  Wonkette, of all people, is. which, by the way, is where I swiped this particular photograph of the Breck girl. (Update: Drill the pic for a video of it all… thanks for DavidL...)

Here’s a clue, Democrats; When I see you denouncing Bill Maher, for his comments about Dick Cheney, and going after Wonkette for her implication of exactly the same point Coulter’s been making, I’ll take your complaint abouyt Coulter more seriously… particularly, as regards your charges of hypocrisy. Until then, shut up.

Period, full stop.

And since i’m such a great guy, here’s another clue ; getting Mommy to stand up for you, isn’t a way to lose the image of “wuss”.

Get the picture?
