Coulter demonstrates that she is both an intentional liar and an incompetent writer.

Well. Larry, You snipped this. So get busy to back it up.

I read the screed. You bold up two paagraphs. You need to back up the one sentence above, or shut up.

My post was directed at Publius who claimed that Conason didn't engage his subject. He's wrong.

I said that I haven't done the work necessary to speak to whether Coulter or Conason is right - but I do have an opinion.

So the rubes who buy "Treason" will believe her when she accuses George Catlett Marshall, the great general who oversaw the reconstruction of Europe, of nurturing a "strange attraction" to "sedition" and of scheming to assist rather than hinder Soviet expansion.

If she really does accuse Marshall I don't have to read any further - her stuff is trash.

More generally, she's right that far too many on the Left reflexively take anti-American positions - always criticising us, never seeing the faults of our enemies.

But she's wrong to label that treason and to put such great emphasis on supressing it. I have paid some attention to the development of atomic weapons and to the "loss of China". Spying and treason were not the reason Chiang lost and not the reason the USSR got atomic weapons.

Usually, when asked to backup ridiculous statements or shut up, they do neither.
They spout more vitriol and lunacy and never get to the point, nor defend or explain anything.
And when you finally DO get out of them what they honestly DO believe, it's pure BS.
