Why? Because he’s slept with a lot of women. Now, we generally try to pay as little attention to Coulter as possible, but this one was just too damn good. Wonkette had advance notice about Coulter’s appearance on Donny Deutsch’s CNBC talk show last night. Apparently Deutsch, likely sensing some juicy lunacy from his guest, goaded Ann into repeating an assertion she made off-camera: that something about Clinton’s promiscuity with women makes him latently homosexual. We’re not sure what the hell she’s talking about either, (Wonkette’s got the whole transcript), but here’s the choicest bit:

COULTER: No. I think anyone with that level of promiscuity where, you know, you—I mean, he didn’t know Monica’s name until their sixth sexual encounter. There is something that is—that is of the bathhouse about that.
DEUTSCH: But what is the homosexual—that’s—you could say somebody who maybe doesn’t celebrate women the way he should or just is that he’s a hound dog?
COULTER: No. It’s just random, is this obsession with his…
DEUTSCH: But where’s the—but where’s the homosexual part of that? I’m—once again, I’m speechless here.
COULTER: It’s reminiscent of a bathhouse. It’s just this obsession with your own—with your own essence.
DEUTSCH: But why is that homosexual? You could say narcissistic.
COULTER: Right.
DEUTSCH: You could say nymphomaniac.
COULTER: Well, there is something narcissistic about homosexuality. Right? Because you’re in love with someone who looks like you. I’m not breaking new territory here, why are you looking at me like that?

At what point does everyone agree that she’s off her rocker? Not yet? OK.

The news on the marriage front: the Washington state supreme court upheld the state’s same-sex marriage ban this morning, essentially tossing the hot potato back to the legislature like New York’s court did. The long-awaited decision was another big blow to the forces of matrimony. At least the gays still have New Jersey to pin their wedding hopes on. And, on the bright side, we did just recruit Lance Bass. Go team!

The New York tabs are buzzing about Christie Brinkley’s soon-to-be ex-hubby Peter Cook and his philandering-in-the-Hamptons ways. Gawker however, has a new spin, linking to a NY Post column by Linda Stasi that wonders aloud why men married to fabulously beautiful and famous women still find ways to cheat, while women never do. Her proof? She claims that any woman who would admit to cheating on George Clooney is either a “lunatic, a liar, or a lesbian.” So which are you? Gawker’s conducting a survey now.

The Daily News notes how Rosie O’Donnell’s impending arrival is sending the rest of the View ladies into a tizzy of lesbianism.

“Barbara is straight, okay? I can vouch for that,” Joy Behar bantered the other day.
“How about you, honey?” asked guest co-host Tanika Ray of “Extra.”
“Honey, no, don’t even,” Behar answered. “I’m looking forward to Rosie O’Donnell, okay? She’s my type.”
“Come this fall,” Walters chimed in, “she’s all of our types. Ba-dump-dump!”

This might be fun after all.

Nina Jacobson, the only openly gay movie studio exec that we know of, got canned yesterday after 8 years as president of the Walt Disney Motion Pictures Group. The news is a bit shocking considering Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean sequel is such a monster hit, and the choicest detail of her firing wasn’t lost on the LA Times. Her boss fired her over the phone while she was at the hospital after her partner had given birth to their third child.

Patricia Todd, an associate director of AIDS Alabama, squeaked out a victory in the Democratic primary for a district seat in Alabama. Since there’s no Republican running, she’s a sure-thing to win the general election and become the first ever openly-gay state legislator in Alabama. Alabama!
