Coulter, who has publicly endorsed Romney and who will never say anything that can get her disinvited from CPAC or kicked off Fox News, now says that calling John Edwards a faggot was just a joke.

“It was an offensive remark. Governor Romney believes all people should be treated with dignity and respect.”
