more on Her 


Conservative (yes, I'm biased) writer David Horowitz has this to say about Ann's new book:
By failing to draw a clear line between satirical exaggeration and historical analysis, by refusing to credit the laudable role played by patriotic, anti- Communist liberals like Truman, Kennedy and Humphrey, Coulter has compromised her case and undermined her attempt to correct a record that desperately needs correction.

Satirical exaggeration? Isn't that exactly how Michael Moore defended all of the factual errors in "Stupid White Men"? I believe he said something like "It's not meant to be serious, it's a parody. Why would anyone take it (the book) seriously?"

David does go on to make some good points, which you can read here. Link via 'The Corner'.
