Talk:Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right

- Is this comment directed towards the goal of improving the article? --Ed Poor 10:51, 21 April 2007 (EDT)
- How about making it more accurate by actually quoting the kind of venonmous invective this woman typically uses? --PF Fox 19:24, 4 May 2007 (EDT)
- Why is it a blockable offense to include the actual quotes from Ann Coulter in this article? --PF Fox 19:50, 4 May 2007 (EDT)

- Among the other inaccuracies were Coulter’s claim that “In 1993 Al Gore saw busts of Washington and Franklin and asked, ‘Who are these guys?’ The story was carried only by USA Today.” (in fact, the account had been repeated in several papers, including the New York Times, and Al Gore was referring not to busts of Washington and Franklin, but to busts of John Paul Jones and Marquis de Lafayette) RobS 16:12, 5 May 2007 (EDT)

Examples?
If its packed with well-documented ezxamples, let's have some. The one you give - that all over the country people were questioning Bush's ability, is probably quite true: all over the US, people were. Maybe not as many as voted for him, but they were nevertheless.
