Right-winged mouthpiece Ann Coulter's recent gum flappings as a result of being "bumped from a scheduled NBC appearance" seems to have gotten "her and her new book more press than if she’d gone on air as originally planned." The OC Register's Total Buzz blog notes that Coulter has managed to draw a sell-out crowd for an upcoming Orange County appearance. Coulter is scheduled to make a February 5th stop at the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda on her promo tour for her latest tome, Guilty: Liberal ‘Victims’ and Their Assault on America. Following public statements from NBC saying Coulter's anti-Obama stance was a real "downer," the opinionated Ann remarked on her website today that her book actually happens to be "the downer America has been waiting for."

Today's Wall Street Journal reports that '24' co-creator Joel Surnow is bailing from the show and the Fox network. Surnow is the "right-wing nutjob" who is a personal friend of Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, and President Bush - he's the one that had the brilliant idea to come up with a right wing "answer" to 'The Daily Show' for Fox, but the failure to produce one is evidence he never understood the question.

Leah Kauffman's hilarious and scathing love song to Ann Coulter. A few lines of this satire had me rolling. Of course, Coulter makes it so easy....

Ann Coulter is not a tasteless, trouble-making, uninformed, clueless bimbo, though she often plays one on TV. At least that's what we were led to believe during a nearly ten minute, extended Wikipedia-style introduction of the lawyer-turned-talking head at USC's Annenberg Auditorium. "I’ve never seen such a friendly crowd at a college campus," Coulter beamed as the standing-room audience of about 250 settled down after the majority greeted her with a standing ovation. Coulter...

I am not going to mention Ann Coulter's visit to LA this week or the location. To be honest, I am at a loss for words with THAT woman. I mean does someone ever anger you so much that your nose just twitches and your head shakes side-to-side like a horse swatting a fly and shivers are sent through your whole body? Yup, that pretty much sums up Ann for me. I went to...

Gearing up for another War on Christmas, combative conservative columnist David Horowitz and the College Republicans are calling out to their hate squad and killing Halloween (not to mention a week of breast cancer awareness month) with what they've dubbed "Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week." Ann Coulter, recently listed as charging a $25,000 speaker fee by the Premiere Speakers Bureau (and now "call for fee") will speak in the name of Islamo-Fascism Awareness tomorrow night at USC....

Consolation Prize of a Lifetime - Al Gore is a man of peace and gets the homepage of Apple.com all to himself -- should we expect the iAl to come out by the holidays? The Catalina Island Avalon city employee who beheaded a deer and left it in a soccer net is definitely not getting any peace prize. There was another suspicious package today left around City Hall, forcing street closures and the evacuation...

In case anybody was worried, Jews for Jesus are alive and kicking in L.A. I chanced upon the above gem as I was walking across the UCLA campus last night – the placement of which, it turns out, is (surprise!) no coincidence: “You will find us Jews for Jesus out on the streets and on college campuses handing out our gospel tracts… It is all part of our Jews for Jesus commitment to remain...

When Howard Stern left the airwaves, many of us in LA were too cheap, or too lazy, or too broke to follow him to Sirius. Adam Carolla took over, coming from years of experience in radio, and a frequent guest on the Stern show when it was on KLSX. Adam has since built his following, fine tuned the show, and is kicking ass in morning radio.

We're not even gay and we love Kathy Griffin. In fact of all the people who have tried to fill the shoes of Joan Rivers on the Red Carpet, we believe that Kathy did it better than all of them combined. And what was her reward? E! put her way up as far off the red carpet as they could so as not to fluster the celebs. Poor babies. And poor viewers. Kathy has...

Paris Hilton went on Larry King last night. It was her first tee vee interview after spending twentysomething days in the slammer. Before the interview Paris said that jail had changed her for the better. During the interview she told Larry that she had never done drugs. King: "Ever taken drugs?" Hilton: "No." Unfortunately Paris must had forgotten about all of those videos that came out last year on the ParisExposed.com website that showed...

Water-coloring, jazz-listening, horse track-attending, local politics-loving, cocktail-making, Joseph Mailander is stepping down from the blog he helped form, the Martini Republic. LAist has the exclusive interview with one of our favorite LA bloggers who dares say something about the Yankees which we recommend that you ignore as we have done. LAist: There appears to be some major changes in Martini Republic, namely I see that you are not the Editor of the site any...

In another example of a Chicagoan coming to LA to change something sacred comes the story of Carl Amari who is putting together a box set of cds that will contain the dramatic reading of The Bible by Hollywood actors. For some reason they can't figure out who to play Satan. The first part of the project, a 20-CD set of the New Testament for $49.95, will arrive in stores in October. Considering the...

Sorta sucks when the doctors are right. Two days ago Cathy's lungs collapsed and the doctors said she only had two days left. She had been fighting lung cancer for years and as far as I could tell she was fighting it beautifully and with grace.

Journalist and blogger Cathy Seipp has been sick for a while but you wouldn't know it. In between writing and blogging and being interviewed and hosting backyard parties attended by the likes of Ann Coulter to holding a roast for herself that asked (and received) no holds barred, Seipp just hasn't had time to get sick enough to be of any seriously serious concern, so friends simply cherished each encounter as if it was its last, and now it appears things have turned very bad.

Now, not only is Al Gore "a total fag", but John Edwards is too? Just when you thought the ultra-blond, ultra-conservative pundit had made her last hateful remark, she goes and does it again. And gets cheers for that matter. After the jump read what Edwards' wife had to say about all of this....

Not to pooh-pooh the gang sitch in LA, as yes, Coulter is a bimbo, but it was only yesterday that Mayor Tony said the following (regarding the 204th Street gang -- not WeHo's licensed weed vendors) with FBI Director Robert Mueller at his side:"We have a message for these gang leaders: We are coming with everything we have. We are coming with services and suppression, and we are putting you out of business." See...

A Word or 30: Golden Globes redux: was happy that Sacha Baron Cohen won; Forest Whitaker, OK; Alec Baldwin, thank you; but "Cars"? "Grey's Anatomy"? No wonder I hate those award skeet skeet sessions. Tonight - Tuesday - January 16th, 2007 Blues @ Ducks (PRIME, 7:00 p.m.) "American Idol" (Fox, 8:00 p.m.) 2 hour season premiere "America's Funniest Home Videos" (ABC, 8:00 p.m.) A two hour death march of fun "The Unit" (CBS, 9:00...

LA journalist Cathy Seipp is interviewed by adult video journalist Luke Ford, not about porn, but about silly things.

Joseph Mailander is like many native Los Angelenos that you will run into -- softspoken, easy-going, but sharp as a tack, and eloquent. Head honcho of the left-leaning Martini Republic, Mailander had the opportunity to meet Ann Coulter (pictured, above) this summer and had nice things to say about her in this exclusive interview -- the same can't be said for his feelings about The Grove, Little Green Footballs, and the L.A. Times. 1....

"Love Pearl Jam. But Pearl Jam now is like the Gap crowd. The baggy trousers. It's a date. It's nice, lovely music. You know, there is a whole other world out there. But people are snobbish and don't want to mix with it. We love those people. We embrace them. They are as loyal as they can be." - Sharon Osbourne, LA Times 7/6

L.A. Times columnist, Steve Lopez is asking some not-so-tough questions to L.A. County's 5th District Supervisor - Michael D. Antonovich. Yet they are not really getting answered. While we only have Lopez's side of the story, we're going to take his word for it:

Martini Republic's Joseph Mailander has been noticably mum about his tête à tête with best-selling author Ann Coulter.

For a woman who claims to hate liberals so much, Ann Coulter has sure hung around lefty-lovin' Los Angeles lots lately.

On his own turf over at Slate, Mickey Kaus does a fair job of laying his jacket out for Ann Coulter as she steps through all the mud she loves to sling. Hopefully you read on Tuesday how he turned the tables on her critics by suggesting that Daily Kos helmsman Markos Moulitsas wrote far more offensive comments about dead soldiers than anything that Ms. Coulter is currently being lionized for, namely denouncing 9/11 widows by saying they're enjoying their husband's deaths.

Seattlest saw a house party get senselessly attacked with a shotgun and end in seven dead. A local senator is debated and their version of the big dig is investigated. To truly get to the bottom of it they interview the writer Jonathan Raban.

Hey, have you heard? Andy Mitch Hurwitz says he's leaving the job of Show Runner for Arrested Development behind. If you haven't heard, apparently this is the only blog you read as we've seen more notices about this non-story on more blogs today than maybe anything else. AD was cancelled months ago, the 4 part series finale gave a fitting end to the show and, really, we're sorry to tell you, that no matter how much you loved it, it would appear that only bloggers were watching.

We didn't make it to the debate between Al Franken and Ann Coulter last night at The Gibson (and sponsored by the University of Judaism) but Franken talked on his show (live from San Francisco) this morning about the remarks they each made during the sponsors dinner before hand.

Unless you spent the $225 for the series that includes Al Franken and Ann Coulter tonight at The Gibson, you’re out of luck. Rather, we recommend you check out local celebrity politico Eric Garcetti at the Improv Olympic on The Blank Blank Show in Hollywood.

But if we did endorse it, here are the five celebrities we'd most like to see with pie on their face:
