NEW YORK Ann Coulter, fresh from implying that John Edwards is a "faggot," now has a statement on her Web site saying Edwards campaign manager David Bonior "is fronting for Arab terrorists."
Coulter made the slur about Edwards, a Democratic presidential candidate married to a woman, during a Friday speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference.
Soon after, Bonior announced he was sending out a fund-raising letter seeking "Coulter Cash" to "show every would-be Republican mouthpiece that their bigoted attacks will not intimidate this campaign."
A copy of Bonior's letter was posted on Coulter's Web site, with this note underneath: "It's always good to divert Bonior from his principal pastime which is fronting for Arab terrorists."
Bonior was elected to Congress half a dozen times in Michigan, and served in Vietnam.
Universal Press Syndicate distributes Coulter's weekly newspaper column.
A spokesperson there told E&P today that Universal would not comment about something Coulter said outside her column.
The syndicate also declined to comment on what steps it might be taking if Coulter had used the "N" word instead of the "F" word.
Coulter's Friday remark went as follows: "I was going to have a few comments on the other Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, but it turns out you have to go into rehab if you use the word 'faggot,' so I -- so kind of an impasse, can't really talk about Edwards."
Audience members at the conservative gathering initially appeared startled

CAIR buddy?
To be fair, the same could be said for James Baker.
the '08 elections cannot get here fast enough
How come Ann always seems to have all the fun.
Annie is sticking by her guns...lol
Good for Ann. Don't back down to the PC thought police. What she said pales in comparison to Maher wishing Cheney dead. Besides, Edwards is the Breck Girl, and he is kind of a fag.
Go Ann --- give those liberals hell! They deserve every name in the book --- PC is next worst disease next to liberalism and socialism.
James Baker has been bought and paid for by the Saudis. He has been their b*tch boy for years.
To be double fair, I don't like Baker either.
I have no problem with what Ann said...she was making a POINT!
These democrats will have this country sold out before 08 Im afraid
Go Annie go! Give those heterophobic fags a run for their money.
Smack!
Yeah. How devious of them to not comment on a hypothetical from a muckraker.
Edwards may or may not be a fag but he is definitely a dick.
"The syndicate also declined to comment on what steps it might be taking if Coulter had used the "N" word instead of the "F" word."
I don't get it. What's a Naggot?
"This isn't about money, this is about politics," former Rep. David Bonior (D-MI) said recently, flailing away at the mucky dust kicked up by his decision to keep campaign contributions from Hamas-, Hezbollah- and Islamic Jihad-supporting donors.
Chalk one up for the recently resigned Democratic House Whip now running for Michigan's statehouse: This controversy is about politics -- specifically, the politics of the money in question. Having raised, banked and retained $1,000 from Abdurahman Alamoudi and $3,200 from Sami and Nahla Al-Arian, Bonior has allowed supporters and promoters of terrorist organizations to further his political career. And what kind of politics is that? Not the best way to kick off a gubernatorial campaign. Or is it? You have to wonder what kind of signal Bonior thinks he's sending Michigan's sizable Muslim-American community by failing to renounce the support of those who openly sympathize with radical Islamic terrorists.
Google Bonior + Hamas and you'll find a lot more....
Couldn't expect the sorry excuse for the journalist(s) do that.....
They say that like it's not true.
"James Baker has been bought and paid for by the Saudis. He has been their b*tch boy for years."

In March 1997 Baker became the Personal Envoy of the UN Secretary-General for Western Sahara...to say nothing of his deep roots in the Bush Dynasty.

Ya Gotta Lov it.
She ought to get in a joke about Edward's urging genocide of Israel.
It could. Bonior is a tad closer to an assortment of groups, including CAIR. And donors
Sami al Arian's son Mohammed worked for him. Of course dad visited the White House.
I mentioned this in passing on another Coulter thread.
I'm sorry to see her do this. The day after her faggot comment. The charge that Bonior is fronting for Arab terrorists doesn't hold water. And simply allows him to cover his relationship with marginal characters with right wing bigotry.
Of course if Ann does have information, she should pass it along to the FBI.
An effeminate male (say with a penchant for hair) can often be "married to a woman".
Seems to me that Edwards meets that definition pretty well. What we used to call a "pretty boy".

I was there. I wasn't startled.
Don't you love biased reporting?
So Edwards guy served in Vietnam. Edwards didn't. In fact he lied about on TV. Still looking for the clip. When asked, Edwardssaid Vietnam wa al over when he was of draft age. He and I are the same age.
You're wrong. He's a pussy......or just a plain ol' wuss.
Whew! Glad this unbiased journalist without an agenda pointed this out!
You know, Mr. EastCoast Lib reporter, outhere in the flyover zone, there is no other kind of marraige, you arrogant elitist poofda. Someone with anykind of character would have written: "Coulter made the slur about Edwards, a married Democratic presidential candidate, during a Friday speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference."
"slur about Edwards, a Democratic presidential candidate married to a woman,"
Someone please call Jim McGreevey and tell him he must've been mistaken.
David Bonior has been know to us for over 20 years as friend to terrorists like Yasser Arafat and an enemy of Israel.
Not that there's anything wrong with that...
Coulter made the slur about Edwards, a Democratic presidential candidate married to a woman, during a Friday speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference.
Like that means anything. There are lots of instances of gay guys getting married and then later leaving their wives, or vice versa.
Notice how said sorry excuse makes the point that Bonior is not fronting for Arab terrorists:
A copy of Bonior's letter was posted on Coulter's Web site, with this note underneath: "It's always good to divert Bonior from his principal pastime which is fronting for Arab terrorists."
Bonior was elected to Congress half a dozen times in Michigan, and served in Vietnam.
See? Just as Edwards is married to a woman so he cannot be a fag, Bonior was elected and served in Vietnam, ergo he does not front for terrorists. Its not a non sequitor, its logic!
Good one. hahahahaha
Wasn't McGreevey 'married to a woman?'
Where are Black Americans with outrage over the left-wing attempt to make of "faggot" and "nigger" equivalent insults. Homosexuals come in all colors and were nver persecuted in America. They were never slaves. They were never beaten and flogged. They did not suffer a Middle Passage from one continent to another--having as much as 25% of their kind die on the way. If I were a descendant of slaves I would be furious over the fags trying to co-opt "civil rights" as their mantle.
Wow talk abut pretty ! The girls ain't bad either !!!
Did Ann have this up her sleeve when she didn't call Edwards a faggot?
LOL!
pathetic.
In sports, you *never* say anything to get the other side fired up. This is just giving them ammunition to use against us.
They already call conservaties mean and homophobes. Verbal slinging like this just will make it easier for them to convince some folks of that!
No surprise there, Bonior is a known traitor (and the idiot used to be my rep)
Back in the late 80's, I read an article (Nowak maybe) about Bonior being overheard on a Sandinista wiretap telling the communists about a US air drop location for the Contra's.
Maybe someone with Lexis access could find it.
LOL. Lets see if Dean Barrett and the rest of the ball less bloggers get their panties in a twist over this too.
Is Annie the only conservative with guts?
Wish she'd run for office instead of all these RINO wussies.
"Rule # 1: No pooftas."
Thank you, Pythons.
"...show every would-be republican mouthpiece that their bigoted attacks will not intimidate this campaign...."
there goes another democrat insinuating that there's an attempt at intimidation. i wonder how many acts of intimidation mr bonior engaged in during his tenure as a congressman. and...where was mr. bonior when his democrats cronies used the words nazi to describe republicans and the words idiot, ignorant, red-neck to describe christians. where was mr. bonior when there were allegations that hillary! had fbi files and was using them to intimidate political opponents. where was mr bonior when mr church exposed the names of so many cia operatives with the result that they were compromised.
mr bonior and his democrat cronies could answer alot of questions but they never will.
You may also remember that in the 90's he and that idiot Conyers were trying to get sanctions on Iraq lifted.
I'd say Ann is right on the money, as usual.
