I dont' know if this has made news elsewhere, but somewhere here in Sonoma County, a Mormon junior high girl was disciplined at school for saying "God, that's so gay" about something. Rather than simply challenge the wisdom of this action, her parents have filed a religious discrimination lawsuit. The trial has concluded, and the judge will issue a decision soon. In the political context, I guess Coulter would describe Edwards's desire to withdraw the troops as "totally gay." His comeback, I suppose, would be "you f***ing dyke."
Apparently the kids today also say "Don't be so Jewish" when someone doesn't want to spend their money. In the political context, I guess we could criticize government spending by saying that if Congress only acted like a bunch of Jews--maybe even Jews on the sabbath--the country would be in better shape.
