The Coulter Doctrine
I still remember, amid my shock and revulsion at the 9/11 attacks, the additional layer of shock and revulsion I felt when I read Ann Coulter’s “We should invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity” National Review column. Not only had we been confronted with racial and religious hate raised to the level of mass murder from outside our borders, but now we were facing the same thing from inside as well, since people like this thoroughly vile woman were willing to promote themselves through appeals to the worst in all of us.
Now, Counterspin Central has a link to the following story from Newhouse News: Plans under way for Christianizing the enemy.
So, with the help of a president who doesn’t believe in thinking too hard about these sorts of things, Ann Coulter’s prescription for our national response to 9/11 has become, quite literally, the actual policy we are pursuing.
It’s a nightmare. And I can’t wake up.
