Since then, Bush has won two wars against countries that harbored Muslim fanatics, captured Saddam Hussein, immobilized Osama bin Laden, destroyed al-Qaida's base, and begun to create the only functioning democracy in the Middle East other than Israel.

It's impressive to see so much crap in such a small space -- the op-ed equivalent of ten pounds of shit in a five-pound bag. Afghanistan harbored Muslim fanatics; Iraq did not. We captured Saddam Hussein, but it's anyone's guess where Osama bin Laden is. Who knows whether we've destroyed Al Qaeda's base? Smart people (smarter than Coulter) fear that it has reacted by decentralizing, which -- if so -- would make this impossible by definition. And Iraq is going to be a "functioning democracy" around the time Coulter wins the Nobel Prize for Literature.

Democrats opposed it all – except their phony support for war with Afghanistan, which they immediately complained about and said would be a Vietnam quagmire.

What a load of horseshit. It's a neat trick Coulter has of demonizing Democrats -- they either disagree openly or they're lying. (And I think the people tossing the word quagmire around were talking about Iraq.)

And now they claim to be outraged that in the months before 9-11, Bush did not do everything Democrats opposed doing after 9-11.

More horseshit. The outrage is that Bush sat on the Clinton programme for eight months until 9/11 diverted his attention from missile defense and planning the invasion of Iraq.
Reading Coulter is like a substitute for thinking.
