Well, of course there is. The Bush administration, prior to being in office, postulated that an event such as , in their words, a “New Pearl Harbor” would be necessary to garner public support for a new level of global militarization that they laid out in their “rebuilding americans defenses” doctrine in the late 90s. Hey, they said it, not me.
Her contempt was directed at a September 25 San Francisco Chronicle story reporting that former NFL star and Army Ranger war hero Pat Tillman, who was killed in Afghanistan last year, believed the US war on Iraq was “f***ing illegal” and counted Noam Chomsky among his favorite authors. It must have been quite a moment for Coulter, who upon Tillman’s death described him in her inimitably creepy fashion as “an American original–virtuous, pure and masculine like only an American male can be.” She tried to discredit the story as San Francisco agitprop, but this approach ran into a slight problem: The article’s source was Pat Tillman’s mother, Mary.
Of course, the entire right wing pundit circuit decided Pat’s mother and Chomsky were lying.
