Shooting Elephants In A Barrel

by Ann Coulter - March 7, 2007 - Townhall.com

It was not a crime to reveal Valerie Plame's name because she was not a covert agent. If it had been a crime, Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald could have wrapped up his investigation with an indictment of the State Department's Richard Armitage on the first day of his investigation since it was Armitage who revealed her name and Fitzgerald knew it.

. . . Libby is now a convicted felon for having a faulty memory of the person who first told him that Joe Wilson was a delusional boob who lied about his wife sending him to Niger.

This makes it official: It's illegal to be Republican.

Ann Coulter is hated by progressives and democrats. One thing they always try to claim is that she is "over the top" or "excessive". Actually Ann can more accurately be described as well researched and as a result more incensed at democrat actions.

Notwithstanding her calling Joe Wilson a boob so the democrats can call her excessive, this article is a litany of the prosecutor abuses that democrats have taken on behalf of the democrat party agenda. These partisan witch hunts are an insult to our nation and a total condemnation of the most corrupt court system on earth. That court system is ours.

From Kennedy to Berger, democrats either walk or get "community service" for actions that are arrogantly criminal. Does anyone remember the testimony of Hillary in the court case about her Rose Law Firm billing records. Something approaching 200 "I can't remember" or variations on that statement. When Republicans say they can't recall, they are held in contempt. When Republicans testify even the most insignificant flaw in memory results in perjury convictions. How did Hillary get away with this? She of course is a democrat.

The double standard Ann documents in this article is outrageous. It is time for more of the moderate and middle of the road Republicans, and America's large pool of independents, to start to notice this partisan abuse. If it continues there will be an escalation. The rage among Republicans is growing and open warfare is not far behind rage. Do we want another civil war?

See you in the streets.
