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.
Ann doesn't dance like that. If it walks like a duck.... well, you know.
I, too, stand with Ann.
Pray for GW and the Truth
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.
