Kesher Talk

Ann Coulter is a passing fad Dept. Anne Applebaum - author of a recent history of Stalin's Gulag and nobody's fellow traveler - fisks Ann Coulter.

I have spent a great deal of time -- perhaps the better part of the last 10 years -- writing about communism, Stalinism and the West's relationship to both. Yet about halfway through Treason, an extended rant on these subjects, I felt a strong urge to get up, throw the book across the room, and join up with whatever Leninist-Trotskyite-Marxist political parties still exist in America. Even the company of Maoist insurgents would be more intellectually invigorating than that of Ann Coulter. More to the point, whatever side this woman is on, I don't want to be on it.

Can I say that Anne Applebaum is the female Charles Krauthammer? Read the whole thing. (via - you guessed it - Amygdala)
