Politicians - John & Elizabeth Edwards
If this article is right, Chris Matthews is sneaky, Ann Coulter has been quoted out of context, Bill Maher can say things without consequences, the Edwards don't communicate, and the media spins to suit their agenda.
Wow!...
Wow!...
I saw this in several places but this article by David Sanders in the Arkansas News tells it best:
"John Edwards has taken his campaign to new depths. Presidential candidates drowning in desperation do stupid things.
Surely you've heard about how Ann Coulter, the conservative fire-breather who makes a living saying things discerning people keep to themselves, was apparently set up by Chris Matthews and the Edwards' campaign.
Halfway through his cable news program on which Coulter was a guest, Matthews announced that Elizabeth Edwards, wife of candidate John, was on the phone with a message for Coulter: You've hurt our feelings, so quit attacking my husband.
Mrs. Edwards was supposedly upset by Coulter's comments on a network morning show the day before. The anchor had asked Coulter about a prior disparaging characterization of Mr. Edwards' sexuality. Coulter claimed that she'd only jokingly referred to Mr. Edwards as a 'faggot.'"
