"Faggot" is a term that is commonly used to describe people who are pathetic, weak, annoying, etc. It is a slur against gay people, and I'm sure its offensive to many. However, it being offensive to some doesn't make it unfunny to me.
Of course, Coulter, in the same speech, went on to say that she didn't dislike gay people, but rather was against gay marriage. It was inappropriate, but not a sign of her hatred for gay people or homophobia. Of course, people on the left won't let the truth get in the way of misrepresentations.
If Coulter were a politician I think she should have to apologize, etc. However, she's not. She's a comedian/political analyst who offends people as her job. She's brilliant and hated. I think its probably the GOP's fault for including her too much into the party. She certainly has a role in conservative politics, but I don't think she belongs in partisan activities. I am rather surprised she said it at CPAC, however.
