Ann is being intellectually dishonest here, and selective with her Chambers' quotes

Why don't you write a book about how Chambers opposed McCarthy then? That isn't the topic of her book. Her book is about Democrats who favored enemies of America. Coulter spends about 35 out of 292 pages on Chambers. I am sure there is a lot she didn't say.

Don't you think that Chambers speaking out repeatedly against McCarthy is pretty darn relevant to the subject of her book, particularly when she cherrypicked one quote to make it appear that Chambers was a McCarthy fan? If Michael Moore had done something like that, freepers would be all over him, particularly if he spent 35 pages on the person, and never mentioned that fact.

Sorry, I don't like people who are intellectually dishonest, no matter what side they're on, or how shiny their hair is. And Ann Coulter is doing more harm than good with her bomb-throwing in this book. I haven't thought much of her since I heard her flippantly suggest that Timothy McVeigh should have bombed the New York Times building.
