Conservatives and the war

As I've mentioned previously on this blog, though I consider my political views to be liberal-leaning, I'm currently reading a few books by prominent conservative extremists in an attempt to hear the other side. Among these people is Ann Coulter- an infamous ultra-conservative who pretty much everyone considers to be insane.

Ann Coulter may very well be insane- I'm not sure- but I've got to say, she does a very good job of clearly explaining the conservative frame of mind when it comes to America's foreign policy vis-a-vis the War on Terror. Here's a clip of Ann reading from her book Treason, in which she compares her vision of the liberal view toward defending America with the conservative.

I imagine this clip will strike most people as, well, insane. As I was listening to this tonight, my initial reaction was, "Holy crap, this woman's insane!"

But you know what? As un-PC as her remarks may be, there's a degree of truth behind them. Is she really nuts? I don't know. I invite debate.
