In a related chapter, "The Martyr: Willie Horton," Coulter provides detailed information about Horton's crimes, Michael Dukakis' furlough program, and the precise nature of the Horton ads aired in the 1988 presidential campaign

I hope Ann pointed out that it was Algore, who first brought up Willie Horton against Dukakis during the Democratic primaries.

She does, indeed. But she also takes it one step further. She points out that in the 2000 RAT primaries Bill Bradley also brought up the fact that Algore created the Willie Horton ad but for some strange reason the press was no longer interested in the racist component of the Willie Horton ad.

As a some wise guy once said, "If it wasn't for double-standards, Liberals would have no standards at all."
