The "Ann Coulter Wing" Of The Republican Party-Restoring America's Balance
You know how GOP politicians and Mediawhores like to say "Michael Moore Wing" of the Democratic Party?

And pretend many Democratic politicians are at the extreme Left of the political spectrum?

And thereby pull American politics and discourse ever further to the Right?

Well, it seems perfectly clear we need to start calling Frist, McCain etc members of the Ann Coulter Wing of the GOP.

You can also use "Pat Robertson Wing" of the GOP, if you like.

1. It's the "Un-Cultured Wing" of the GOP
to be precise.

3. In today's world, they are not a wing. They're the heart of the GOP.
I can count the number of Republicans to the left of them on one hand.

5. Sorry
Already used "Ann Coulter Wing of the GOP" in a response to my sister forwarding me the infamous "Cindy Sheehan gave Casey up in divorce & hasn't put up a headstone yet" email this weekend. Wouldn't have wasted my time responding point by point, but I've sent her the address of snopes.com a hundred times and she still doesn't check it before emailing me & asking "is this true?" So I told her that this was a form of debate reserved for the Ann Coulter Wing of the GOP - ignore the question and launch a personal attack of the questioner.

Ann Coulter is as unbalanced as they get.

8. It's not the Ann Coulter or Pat Robertson Wing...
They are the mainstream of today's Republican Party. The ones that are in a (very small) wing of their own are moderates like Chafee of Rhode Island or Shays & Rell of Connecticut... maybe we can call them the reality-based wing of the Republican Party?
