      Reich-wingers are such retards, and believe in advocating wars and spreading imperialism.

      I agree with Coulter on the CIA issue but.... I believe in reforming the CIA. They are corrupt and Former President Harry Truman regretted signing and executive order creating the CIA officially in 1948 or 1949. They focus more on covert actions instead of actual intelligence. Thank you Allen Dulles!!!

      SMH!

        Didn't JFK get so PO'd at the CIA after the Bay of Pigs fiasco that he said he was going to "smash the CIA into a thousand pieces"?

          Yep...and then, if memory serves me correctly, he gave Allen Dulles (the deposed head of the CIA) a medal.

        Interesting story about how Bush became head of the CIA. When Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney orchestrated their promotions in the Ford White House they talked Ford into appointing Bush head of the CIA because it was considered such a dead-end position at the time. Rumsfeld had Presidential aspirations and wanted to send one of his anticipated opponents, Bush, to Siberia.

      So says another chickenhawk, while ensconced among her well-heeled friends. Talk is cheap.

      I volunteer to fly up to DC and drive Ms (allegedly) Coulter to CIA headquarters in Langley, VA so that she can tell them face to face what she thinks about the CIA.

        "Ms (allegedly) Coulter"

        Is that really necessary? Is it honestly necessary to make hateful comments like that? There are plenty of things you can say about The Coultergeist without resorting to smears about transsexuals.

      Ann did not say one thing that was factually incorrect. You may not agree with her opinions but she did not misstate any facts.

        Bombs do not take territory. Bombs do not leave a place for a rational government to be created. Bombs do not win hearts.

        Air deliverred bombs are just another image of an imaginary push botton war. Where no one gets dirty and only the evil are hurt and killed.

          Too true. Not only that, but aerial bombardment without any group forces have been shown to fail (Vietnam for example). On the other hand, Coulter never tells the truth, so why should she start now?
