Rep. Hunter: Ann Coulter Is ‘Approaching That Level Of Being A Great American’ »

Yesterday on MSNBC’s Hardball, Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-CA) defended Ann Coulter’s attacks on John Edwards, including that she wishes he “had been killed in a terrorist assassination plot.”

He said that Elizabeth Edwards’s calls to stop making “personal attacks” against her family were attempts to “silence conservative voices.” He added that Coulter “is a very articulate spokeswoman for the conservative view” and “closely approaching that level of being a great American.”

You would think that any sane politician would be distancing themselves as far as possible from the crazed harpie, not praising her as their "spokeswoman"! I guess that just goes to show that the repugs consider themselves murderous, hateful swine.

And I would be hard-pressed to find anyone who would say that asking someone to stop calling for the murder of their husband and making "jokes" about their dead son is a call to "silence conservative voices".
