So the San Francisco Chronicle website posts some dumb thing about a horse at the SF Zoo that shares a name with a beloved political humorist, and we link to it because it mentions funny gal Ann Coulter, and now the zoo wants us to post a correction?

A correction to what? Is this what public-relations people really do all day?

In fact, the zoo’s statement is a classic non-denial denial that does nothing to kill speculation that the zoo horse was indeed named for America’s sweetheart. All that’s been clarified is that the horse was (allegedly) named by its breeder in 2001. And we’re supposed to believe Ann Coulter was born from the sea like Athena in 2002? (Oh wait, Venus was born from the sea after it was fertilized with the mutilated testicles of Uranus … Athena was born from the split-open skull of Zeus. We always mix those up.)

Read the actual letter from the actual San Francisco Zoo regarding a horse named “Coulter,” after the jump.

Republicans learned long ago that Democrats are big meanies, so the latest outrage out of “Moscow by the Bay” really shouldn’t come as a shock.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, the city zoo has named one of its horses “Coulter” — a direct attack on the beauty of best-selling humorist Ann Coulter!

Sadly, we’re not done with Ann Coulter. Happily, we have worthwhile gossip to spread. In honor of this day I offer: The Ana Marie Cox Memorial Anonymous Sex Rumor.

Tammy Bruce — conservative writer, former president of NOW in Los Angeles, former KFI-AM radio talk show host — is said to be a lover of Ann Coulter. Bruce has always disclosed on her radio show that she is a full-on lesbian. It’s said that Coulter and Bruce were seen at a women’s bar on “little Santa Monica Blvd” called Palms just west of La Cienega in West Hollywood. MORE »

The scolds at David Brock’s Media Matters think MSNBC was in the wrong for - like us - hyping Ann Coulter’s insane “Bill Clinton: Meat eater” interview.

Despite her vitriolic attacks on the 9-11 widows, highlighted by NBC’s Today host Matt Lauer, Coulter’s appearances on the July 26 editions of The Big Idea and Hardball will mark at least the sixth and seventh times NBC, or one of its cable news channels, has hosted Coulter since the publication of her book, Godless: The Church of Liberalism.

Yeah, but it’s the first time she’s called Bill Clinton gay. MORE »

You can only bash 9/11 widows for so long before your book starts slip-sliding down the charts. Solution: Call Bill Clinton gay. A source from “The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch” handed us this transcript from tonight’s 10 pm ET show, during which Deutsch notes that Coulter was talking about Bill Clinton off the air and goads her into repeating what she said.

Ms. COULTER: I think that sort of rampant promiscuity does show some level of latent homosexuality.

DEUTSCH: OK, I think you need to say that again. That Bill Clinton, you think on some level, has — is a latent homosexual, is that what you’re saying?

Ms. COULTER: Yeah.

The rest of this history-changing exchange is below the fold.
