She needs help on Amazon. Lefties are recommending all sorts of stupid books in addition to hers...We need to get a REAL recommendation up like "Useful Idiots" or something by Tammy Bruce. Help her out!

[Cael]

Forgive me if I don't immediately believe that McCarthyism was a completely noble time for our country...In her book, does she give specific examples of people who, according to liberal history accounts, were wrongly targeted by McCarthyism...but were in actuality (from her opinion) *rightly* targeted? She seems kind of vague in the excerpt...

"I DARE CALL IT TREASON"

Me too.

I'll tell ya the truth. If Ann Coulter was as disgusting as Helen Thomas to look at, I'd still harbor secret fantasies about her.

What a pantingly hot, ideological Goddess!

[Focault's Pendulum]

.......And liberals will continue unabashedly invoking a lie in order to shield their ongoing traitorous behavior.

Her unabashed lack of candy coating makes me want to feel like the inside of an M&M......melting in her hand.

America cringed with terror at Ken Starr

I still cringe at Ken Starr. Didn't he turn treason into a plump, horny intern?

[liberalnot]

the los angeles times is one of the biggest promoters of this evil. regularly they run whine articles about how hollywood was oppressed by mccarthism.

also, the obits of hollywooders involved are opportunities for page-long diatribes.

[WL-law]

Someday, school children will be taught that all of America cringed with terror at Ken Starr, whose evil designs on the nation were frustrated only through the sacrifice of brave liberals. People will have vivid images of the pounding boots of Starr's subpoena-servers and the Gestapo-like wails of alarms as Ken Starr arrived to kick in the doors of innocent Americans and storm through their bedrooms.

I think she was describing Sidney Blumenthal's book.

Ann is right. and Hillary is the new Stalin.

This is why the Democrats love her so.

This week's article from Ann is an adaptation of one of the chapters from her best-seller Treason! Few Democrats really love this country in the way most of us do. For some reason only they know, America is the unhappiest place on Earth.

I sent you freep mail about the Venona Project. It is referenced in this body of the text.

[anncoulteriscool]

I bought Miss Coulter's book tonight at Bordors. It was 30% off and I gotta give Borders some credit it was right at the very front of the bookstore. Oh sure I could have bought it online but then I would have missed the expression on the face of the cashier as I pay for the book. LOL!....My one complaint about Slander and treason is that there are no pictures. BWAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

"In 1995, the U.S. government released its cache of Soviet cables that had been decoded during the Cold War in a top-secret undertaking known as the Venona Project."

For those interested on the Venona Project, refer to this week's Weekly Standard article

"The Origins of McCarthyism: What did Harry Truman know, and when did he know it?"

FoxFan ping!

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my infrequent FoxFan list.

[Loyal Buckeye]

The book, Before the Storm, which is about Goldwater and his transformation of the Republican party, mentions that Goldwater and McCarthy were very close. To me, this reinforces that McCarthy is not who he is portrayed to be. No politician was more patriotic than Goldwater.

[budwiesest]

Anybody know if Ann Coulter and Catherine Coulter are related? (Both attractive blondes who write)

[visitor]

There were, admittedly, a few rare and striking exceptions to the left's overall obtuseness to communist totalitarianism. John F. Kennedy's pronouncements on communism could have been spoken by Joe McCarthy.

An interesting fact is that JFK's father, Joe P. Kennedy, Ambassador to the Court of St. James, the one that Winston Churchill dismissed and sent back to FDR, was an avid supporter of Joe McCarthy, including him in Kennedy Family Events and arranged for Bobby Kennedy (RFK) to be on McCarthy's staff. Even though Joe P. Kennedy was a vocal supporter of Hitler, he hated Communism. This probably explains why JFK said the things he said about Communism, but fails to explain why he betrayed the Bay of Pigs and did not take pre-emptive action to stop the placement of MRBM/IRBM's during the Cuban Missele Crisis...rto

Ann is the Savage Nation right now...

BUMP

[zeugma]

When Clinton first showed his fat oleaginous mug to the nation, the Republicans screamed he was a draft-dodging, pot-smoking flim-flam artist.

oleaginous - what a wonderful five-dollar word!
