Being truthful means as much to Margaret Cho as being funny. And to prove it, she'll stare down embarrassment (perhaps you've heard her describes sh---ing her pants while driving in her car?), misery (after her disastrous short-lived series, All-American Girl, she went into a drug-fueled tailspin that became the basis for a little piece of genius called, I'm the One That I Want), and alienation (being "uninvited" to an HRC event celebrating GLBT unity to avoid controversy re-defines the word "notorious") – usually with hilarious results.A self-described "fag hag" "raised by drag queens" who's had a lesbian experience of her own, Cho always uses the terms "us" and "we" when talking about the gay and lesbian community. Never at a loss for words or without an opinion, the writer, performer and gay icon talked to AfterEllen about her upcoming feature film, Bam Bam and Celeste, hosting Cyndi Lauper's True Colors tour, the lack of Asians on television and racism.

Does anyone really take this cunt seriously?
Coulter: "Let me be the first to say: I ALWAYS agreed with the Rev. Falwell. Actually, there was one small item I think Falwell got wrong regarding his statement after 9/11 that 'the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians — who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle — the ACLU, People for the American Way, all of them who have tried to secularize America. I point the finger in their face and say, 'You helped this happen.'' First of all, I disagreed with that statement because Falwell neglected to specifically include Teddy Kennedy and 'the Reverend' Barry Lynn.""I note that in Falwell's list of Americans he blamed for ejecting God from public life, only the gays got a qualifier. Falwell referred to gays and lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle...What Falwell was referring to are the gay activists — the ones who spit the Eucharist on the floor at St. Patrick's Cathedral, blamed Reagan for AIDS, and keep trying to teach small schoolchildren about 'fisting.' Also the ones who promote the gay lifestyle in a children's cartoon." Source
He often regurgitated exhausted religious canards against sin, but not sinners, but this is the same fuckwad who said at Anita Bryant's 1979 "Save Our Children" rally, "So-called gay people would kill you just as soon as look at you." So much for "loving sinners", Ann, you Nazi. Source

Hatemonger Jerry Falwell dead at 73.
"(9/11 is the result of) throwing God out of the public square, out of the schools, the abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be mocked and when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad...I really believe that the pagans and the abortionists and the feminists and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People for the American Way, all of them who try to secularize America...I point the thing in their face and say you helped this happen."
Janet Charleton's Hollywood Whodunit
Our intentions aren't cruel, but we have to point out that this sweet actress is headed for heartbreak. After a series of disappointing relationships, she found happiness with her handsome new guy, but would she still be smiling if she found out he used to be a Gay for Pay escort? He didn't trade sex for money- he traded it for FAME. His "clients" include the editor of a top celebrity magazine. Recently he started choosing famous girlfriends who can boost his career. They can't help falling for him because he's so darn hot.
