Here's Coulter's quote from her websight...
Quote:

...Press passes can't be that hard to come by if the White House allows that old Arab Helen Thomas to sit within yards of the president. Still, it would be suspicious if Dowd were denied a press pass while someone from "Talon News" got one, even if he is a better reporter.

The implication is that Helen Thomas's Arabic ancestry wasn't a factor in her getting a press pass so why is it a problem believing the gay guy with the fake name & zero journalistic credentials getting one. Actually she mainly stresses Gannon homosexuality as being the real reason "Liberals" are out to get him. I recommend reading her whole column, it's a hoot. You can begin to imagine her on a gay pride float! Anyways Thomas was born in Kentucky a very long time ago. Yes, she is old & yes she is of Lebanese descent but above that she is [bold]American[/bold]. Coulter doesn't get that though.

Fair play!
