Ann Coulter vs. Michael Moore
Newsmax ^ | 16 June 2006 | Humberto Fontova

Posted on 06/16/2006 5:05:55 PM PDT by ChessExpert

“As he turned to assault the next bunker an NVA machine gun opened up and he was mortally wounded. Captain Sosa-Camejo's valorous action and devotion to duty are in keeping with the highest traditions of the military service and reflect great credit upon himself, his unit, and the United States Army."

From his limousine Michael Moore sneers at this Cuban-American and his Band of Brothers as wimps and crybabies "with a yellow stripe down their backs."

Maybe I'm biased, but nothing – absolutely nothing – Ann Coulter has said about Murtha, Kerry or McClellan strikes me as remotely comparable in vileness, cowardice and rank stupidity as Michael Moore's blanket calumny against some of the bravest men of the 20th century.”

Really two articles in one: one on Ann Coulter and Michael Moore and how they are treated by the MSM; and the second one on the Bay of Pigs and Cuba.

It would be nice if we could just send Coulter and Moore off to some island where they can be alone with each other. Then they can lie and smear each other all they want and leave the rest of us alone.

Good find. God, if it weren't for the internet I'd probably still be a liberal. When they controlled the news and the universities, I never, ever heard the other side of the story, not on anything, not once.

I'd take Ann over Moore anytime myself. Unless of course, they're talking about a hot dog eating contest....LOL

Those cuffs would fall off like cheap jewelry.

Ann would have nothing to say if she were limited to telling lies about Moore. The man is truly smarmy!

LOL. We could call it "Shock-jock Island."

Anyone can be outrageous, it takes something more to score direct hits with class and aplomb. VP Cheney is a great example; he can deliver zingers that send the left into sanitariums without ever being trashy.

And the lie Coulter told was???

It would take a book to cover them all, but here's my personal favorite:

Giving slapdash, conservative polemic a bad name

Ann Coulter is the conservative babe whose modus vivendi, says Andrew Sullivan, is to "look amazing and ratchet up the rhetoric against the Left until it has the subtlety and nuance of a car alarm." Her latest book, "Treason" (2003), is one long accusation of disloyalty, and includes one paragraph about me.

As part of a chapter on media types being apologists for Reds, she attacks a newspaper book review I wrote on "The Spy Who Seduced America." The spy was Judith Coplon, convicted in 1950 after a public trial in which she was defended in the press by the liberals of the day. The two words Coulter quoted from my review said that the government's case against Coplon was "entirely circumstantial." Coulter replied:

"The circumstance was this: in March 1949, she was arrested while handing secret government documents to a Russian agent. I suppose you could call that a "circumstance." Needless to say, Soviet cables confirmed that Coplon was a Soviet agent. Liberal refusal to accept any evidence that any person ever spied for the Soviet Union would be exasperating if it weren't so comical."

I read this paragraph over a few times, hardly believing it. The book in question, written by FBI agent Thomas Mitchell and wife Marcia, had concluded that Coplon was guilty. I had agreed: Coplon was a communist spy. Indeed, the title of my review, which is accurately listed in Coulter's footnote, includes the words, "a True Tale of Espionage."

Further, I had said in the review that the labeling of the postwar spy cases as "witch hunts" and "McCarthyism" is a falsification, because there were communist employees in the government spying for the Soviet Union.

As for the "entirely circumstantial" evidence, Coplon, a federal employee, was arrested while meeting with a Russian agent. Coplon had not taken the classified documents from her purse, and was not handing them to him. In another five minutes she probably would have, and of course the meeting itself was damning (but circumstantial) evidence. Yes, Soviet cables confirmed that Coplon was a Soviet agent — but for security reasons, the government had not used those cables as evidence.

So here I was, a non-liberal favorably reviewing a book that exposes a communist spy, and I am accused of "refusal to accept any evidence that any person ever spied for the Soviet Union."

Well, I stopped reading her book. I couldn't believe a thing in it. — Bruce Ramsey

Maybe you can cite a couple of Coulter's lies so we can verify her duplicity.

Please document the "lies" and "smears" Ann has told.

Bonus points - Do it without taking her remarks out of context like liberals usually do.

Your link doesn't go anywhere except to a crude website.

Your citation contains no Coulter lies.

Try again.
