Ann Coulter: sloppy demagogue

Ann Coulter isn't so much a conservative as she is a neo-McCarthyite. In Ann's worldview, Tailgunner Joe was a swell guy who was misunderstood. I wonder if she approves of Roy Cohn's ... preferences. Anyway... Ann, she of "Slander" and "Treason" fame, has taken to slandering George Soros, a Hungarian Jew who escaped the Nazis and Communists, as well as Michael Moore, whose only treachery is having made an opinionated movie, which no one is forced to see. To underscore the inanity and sloppiness of her latest screed: "Saddam In Custody -- Moore, Soros, Dean Still At Large" (which obviously equates - morally and criminally - Michael Moore, George Soros, and Howard Dean (!?) with Saddam Hussein), note this passage: "Soros later denied comparing Bush to the Nazis, saying he had merely said Bush reminded him of "the Germans." Hmmm, which Germans was Soros referring to -- the Von Trapp Family?" The Sound of Music was released in 1965. Any idiot who can sit through and comprehend the first 30 minutes of the film quickly learns that the von Trapps are Austrian. Only Hitler considered the Austrians to be German. What does that tell you?
