James Kirkpatrick September 20, 2015
Ann Coulter must feel like someone trying to help a crack addict who keeps insisting he doesn’t have a problem. In the last GOP debate, most of the candidates showed a sociopathic indifference to the threat that immigration presents to the GOP’s (and America’s) future—even though the event was held in a state that Republicans have practically written off.
And there is increasing evidence that forces within the GOP see the
2016 election, not as an opportunity to retake the White House, but as
an excuse to conduct another Politically Correct purge within the
American Right.
Coulter herself is the first one on the hit list. In response to the question of what AMERICA
(!!!) will look like after they were President, candidates such as Ted
Cruz, Mike Huckabee, and Marco Rubio rhapsodized about Israel. As part
of Coulter’s running twitter commentary, she mocked the GOP’s obvious
pandering with tweets that the usual suspects called
“anti-Semitic”—despite Coulter’s very public record of support for the Jewish state.
Lost in the controversy: the simple truth that Coulter’s commentary
was a criticism of Republican pandering—not of the principle of support
for Israel or of the voting patterns of Jews. Coulter had spent the entire evening bashing the GOP for recycling decades-old talking points, including creepy invocations of Ronald Reagan and ludicrous plans to re-invade the Middle East.
