You are OBSOLETE!

In honor of the 20-year marker of the 9/11 attacks, I thought I'd run excerpts from a few of my post-9/11 columns.
One point I politely refrained from making 20 years ago: Why was the president of the United States reading "The Pet Goat" to a class of second-graders at the moment our nation was attacked?
I think the "Attack France" column (Dec. 20, 2001) holds up well, mostly because I'd rather be bringing in hundreds of thousands of Frenchmen right now than hundreds of thousands of Afghans. (Who knew the golden ticket to U.S. citizenship was being the country that hosted Osama bin Laden?)
But that column didn't make the cut. In 2007, the magnificent Gallic made Nicolas Sarkozy the new president of France, and now we're friends again.
Finally, for the sub-literate: After the defeat of Japan in World War II, Gen. Douglas MacArthur, leader of the occupation, put out a call to American Christians: "Send missionaries and Bibles!" Thousands of missionaries poured in. The same thing happened after the Korean War, with greater success than in Japan.
On this point, there was surprising unanimity. Even President Truman agreed with his nemesis MacArthur, who said: "[Democracy] will endure when it rests firmly on the Christian conception of the individual and society."
Today, not even a Republican would say that. Good luck, America!

History will judge that we were not ruthless enough in our prosecution of the War on Terror. At least to date. Who knows about the future (at least, after Biden).
What a pathetic, ignorant question to ask. The people in charge execute the plans that exist. Bush could not get involved in decision making for hours.
Read the whole column and you will see that that is one question Ann Coulter would never have asked.
Poor excuse for an editorialist. More respected if she kept her mouth shut. Of course, all of the TV Media whores would be.
No thanks, Mann. Go praise Biden for “having the balls” to flee Afghanistan, again.
Healthy countries don’t commemorate getting their asses kicked.
Yeah, go regurgitate your old stuff and hope people forget what a bimbo you’ve shown yourself to be.
Ann seems to spend most of her work hours sticking pins in GOP voodoo dolls. I used to hang onto her every word, now, not so much. At least Peggy Noonan appears to see the bigger picture, well sometimes.
Exactly.
“My Pet Goat” sounds like a Muslim romance novel.
I loved that statement she made.
“Kill them or convert them.”
Of course, even then our treasonous wussy enemies didn’t like such offensive comments.
You are OBSOLETE!
Yeah, we promised we’d never forget. I guess we’ve finally surpassed “never”. Damned shame, that the people of this country are more forgiving of the people who wanted to kill us all just twenty years ago than the people of our own country that just wanted their independence a hundred and sixty years ago. I used to be so proud of “my” country. I don’t think I even have a country anymore. The f’n liberals have given it all away, too.
Me too but not at all.
Certainly good for her that she didn’t ask it, but everyone else did and that was my point.
Coulter no longer has anything to say. i didn’t even give this the usual FR skim.
Mama says Anne Coulter is like a box of chocolates: you never know what you’re gonna get.
There’s definitely some cheap hardware rattling around in her noggin.
