Local wingnut columnist and talk-show host Mike Smerconish says it’s time for Republicans to criticize Ann Coulter, and he interviewed local politicians. This comment from Wacky Curt Weldon caught my eye:
When Congressman Curt Weldon was equally critical of what she’d written, I told him that I was happy to hear that she was not speaking for his brand of Republican.
“No. I think that is obscene, I mean to take to somebody in their darkest hour of grief and try to say that somehow they’re personally benefiting from that is just plain wrong, and while I generally support her I think she stepped way, way over the bounds on this one,” said Weldon.
“Generally” support her? Oh, I suppose when she says things like this:
(Responding to a question from a Catholic University student about her biggest moral or ethical dilemma) “There was one time I had a shot at Clinton. I thought ‘Ann, that’s not going to help your career.’”
