"Mugged": Ann Coulter's Home Run
Jeffrey Lord reviews Ann Coulter's new book at American Spectator:
In writing her newest book, Mugged: Racial Demagoguery From the Seventies to Obama Ms. Coulter takes the time to carefully and in detail explode the self-made liberal myth of liberals and liberalism as heroes in the American civil rights movement. . . .
The idea of liberals as civil rights heroes is not only a tragedy and a myth but a seriously bad joke. . . .
[A]ny group on record with enthusiastic support for slavery, segregation, lynching, the Ku Klux Klan and, in today's world, everything from racial quotas to illegal immigration is decidedly no kind of American hero. . . .
[R]acism and the Left go together like ham and eggs or peanut butter and jelly. Without playing the race card the Left would die of political oxygen deprivation.
"Mugged isn't a book," Lord concludes. "It's a public service advertisement for a colorblind society. Martin Luther King would have loved Ann Coulter."
