The following quotes are from Ann Coulter's book, Treason: Liberal Treachery from the Cold War to the War on Terrorism
Here is what Ann Coulter has to say about the Vietnam War:
- "Vietnam is the Left's favorite war because America lost."
- "Historical accounts of the Vietnam War are incomprehensible because liberals refuse to admit the failure of their national security strategy. The only important lesson from the Vietnam War is this: Democrats lose wars."
- "In the great Democratic tradition of taking the nation to war without a plan to win, only the Democrats could have produced Vietnam."
- "President Lyndon Johnson, who inherited the war when Kenedy was assassinated, viewed the Vietnam War as a method of proving the Democrats could be trusted with foreign policy, which they cannot."
- "Nixon had been elected in part based on his promise to end the war honorably. He would have done so, too, but for Democrats in Congress,"
- "A Republican President either wouldn't have started that war, or would have won it pretty fast."
