I was a great fan of Ann's but have had cause to reconsider, and not just because of this piece I have pointed out to you.

Look up the FR thread on this article. Horowitz never even read the book.

So Ann painted the liberal party with too broad a brush. Unless he's had a recent conversion, I've read more than once, Horowitz bemoaning the right's nice guy way of fighting political wars, and advocate that perhaps the right should adopt some of the tactics of the left.

As Horowitz points out, Ann's basic premise is correct. She just gave them a little ammo to fire back with.

Now.... take a nutball like Michael Moore where the entire premise is fantasy, the case concocted of lies, and the conclusions just plain wrong. I can't make any comparison between Coulter and Moore.

Can't do it.... wouldn't be prudent.

If you read the Horowitz review of Treason then you realize that David agrees with Ann on the facts. He simply thinks that Ann did not pay careful enough attention to the "complexities" of the numerous apparent acts of treason by the left over the decades, from FDR to Lyndon Johnson; that is, they sure do appear to be treasonous acts, but it's, well.... it's more "complex" than that. Etc.

Ann doesn't dance like that. If it walks like a duck.... well, you know.

I, too, stand with Ann.

Anny as far as Harry S Truman's position on Alger Hiss is concerned, Harry refused to fire Alger. When asked about Alger Hiss during the congressional hearings, Truman said the accusations about Hiss was just a Red Herring thrown out by Republicans to smear a good loyal American.

You can argue that Harry was stupid or too lazy to order an FBI investigating of Hiss, or that Harry was just ready to believe that Congressman Richard Nixon and Senator Joe McCarthy were just playing politics. But it can not be said that Harry Truman lifted even a little finger to get rid of real provable and known communists in our government.

We now know the following:

 
   1. Alger Hiss was a Russian spy.
      The Soviet Union records contained the secret 
      information he sent them with Hiss listed as a
      soviet union spy.

   2. We know that Congressman Richard Nixon and Senator 
      Joe McCarty had a heck of a time getting Hiss out of 
      the State Department and away from our national  
      secrets.

   3. We know for a fact that both Dean Acheson (Truman's 
      secretary of State) and President Truman defended 
      Hiss and accused Nixon and McCarthy of conducting a 
      witch hunt after an innocent man.

   4. Truman in a recorded and filmed press conference 
      called the attack on Hiss a Red Herring tactic 
      designed to ruin the reputation of Alger Hiss. Hiss
      was described as a loyal american who had served our 
      nation well under both FDR and HST. Truman's position
      was that he knew HIss was innocent and he was not 
      going to waste any time looking at evidence that 
      said otherwise. Sort of like the Senate's position  
      on the Clinton evidence.

   5. Saying that Nixon and McCarthy were bad Americans 
      for trying to force Acheson and Truman to fire Hiss
      is a big stretch. 

I take a lot of what Horowitz says with a grain of salt. This is not the first time Horowitz has shaded the truth to attack Anne Coulter and others. I think Horowitz is jealous of Anne.

I have never caught Anne playing with the truth. I have caught Horowitz several times. YOu will notice HOrowitz says Anne goes off the deep end or goes too far.. He does not say what she writes is not the truth or that it is a lie. He just makes negative connotations about what she says and the way she says it.

You can do a google search on Harry S. truman and Red Herring to find the truth of what I say. And if you are not familiar with the term Red Herring and what it means, you can look that up too.
