"The accuser made up so many stories about the incident that the Times was forced to offer her Jayson Blair's old position." - Ann Coulter

Best line in the whole article IMHO.

Actually while I am not a Duke defender or fan:

1. Coach K was quoted as saying to the effect that sonme people at Duke have forgotten they are in the kid business.

2. The woman's lacrosse coach has I believe made positive statements and allowed her player to wear something supportive of the lacrosee team in the women's NCAA lacrosse tourney last year.

So in fact two Duke coaches were the first employees to show any public support for the lacrosse team and the 3 accused players.

And I am fine with their level of support. I think while the Gang of 88 was wrong to prejudge, others at Duke did not need to prejudge the other way. Now by mid summer everyone at Duke should have known this was a hoax being used to win an election and certainlly students did rally to their fellow students and the voice of Duke sports refused to shake Nifong's hand when he was going in to vote.

Don't get me wrong. Duke is and will pay a price as I think they should. But the comments about Duke coaches have not been completely correct here.

OK - thanks. By this time, with all the tumult, it sort of gets lost who did or did not support the players.

I agree. It seems like no one at Duke supported them sometimes.

Also remember if you are a coach at Duke the Gang of 88 hates you and your players for the most part. They are jealous of the money K makes. They don't care for sports in general. They seem to have disproportionate influence at Duke. It take a brave person stand up and shot to the enemy remember me, I bet you don't dare attack me.

They're calling for Dick's head, not Mike's. There's no reason to go after Krzyzewski.

"That description fit none of the eventual defendants -- whom she repeatedly failed to pick out of photo lineups until Gottlieb finally gave up and presented her with a photo lineup of only Duke lacrosse players, to ensure that she couldn't guess wrong."

Ann got this part wrong. Mangum was never presented with anything but lax boys in any of the photo line-ups.

Otherwise, good article.

The NYT is a tabloid for the liberal elite.

...and those professors are especially PRIVILEGED when one considers the subject matter they teach. In fact, I would go so far as to say they are so privileged that they are actually academic welfare cases.

I think that is the best description of those particular classes I have read. "Academic welfare."

Lawyers make the rules, and prosecutors are lawyers. There are few means of constraining them or reining them in, yet we have plenty of laws constraining the actions and conduct of police officers and border patrol agents.

Oh good grief. And your own personal dislike of him has what to do with this case?

Mike is a Dick Head.

Ann Coulter could not possibly have chosen a better title.

"As the Times' most loyal reader, this came as welcome news."

I cannot BELIEVE Ann used a dangling participle. But I love her still.

Another outstanding article by Ann Coulter. Her articles are never light and easy, never "easy listening." But for those who think they can handle the truth, her articles are a great resource. They are always logical and informed. Her biases are the same as mine: truth, American patriotism, love of freedom and economic freedom, rejection of Marxism/socialism, family, the Boy Scouts, etc. She defends everything the left finds "controversial" and gores their sacred cows.
