Moby... You really are becoming a left wing spin doctor aren't you? I may have to rethink my position on whether or not you are a nice guy.
p.51 - "When the United States made an alliance with mad mullahs in Afghanistan against the USSR, no sensible American would go sign up with the Taliban."
The Taliban did not have a militia until '94, 5 years after the Soviets withdrew.
Many of the Afghani mujahideen that fought the Soviets were the same idiots that later formed the Taliban. Yes, the mujahideen were (and are) a militia. A rose by any other name huh....
p. 225 - some congressmen went to Iraq. She says, "Weren't any Democrats the tiniest bit irritated that members of Congress were meeting with a tyrant as the U.S. prepared to attack him?"
The group did not meet with the tyrant.
Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Washington, Rep. David Bonior, D-Michigan, and Rep. Mike Thompson, D-California all made a trip together to Iraq last September. On the eve of war and right before Congress voted to use force against Iraq, it was certainly sedititious and quite possibly treasonous to make this trip and give aid and comfort to the enemy. But this is something modern Democrats do with total absolution these days. They may not have met Saddam personally, but they did meet with ranking members of the tyrannical Iraqi regime. Coulter never said they met Saddam. The whole regime were all tyrants.
p. 229 - she quotes Clinton: "They have good reason to hate us...after all, we sent the Crusaders to try and conquer them."
Clinton said no such thing. If you think he did, show some proof. (Coulter gave no source for her proof)
Nice try again. Clinton did say something almost identical to this in a disgraceful November 7, 2001 speech at Georgetown University. (He also arrived late and seemed drunk while giving the speech).
The following is a transcript of the speech:

Care to discuss Hillary Clinton's book of lies or how about Sidney Blumenthal's lengthy book of bullshit lies and spin?
