This is a good one. Interviewed by the Canadian Broadcasting Company's Bob McKeown for the investigative TV broadcast "The Fifth Estate,"
which devoted an hour-long January 26 special to how U.S. media have
been highjacked by conservative bullies, Coulter was berating Canada
for not sending troops to Iraq when she displayed her empty-headedness
in the following exchange:
Coulter: "Canada used to
be one of our most loyal friends and vice-versa. I mean Canada sent
troops to Vietnam - was Vietnam less containable and more of a threat
than Saddam Hussein?"
McKeown interrupts: "Canada didn't send troops to Vietnam."
Coulter: "I don't think that's right."
McKeown: "Canada did not send troops to Vietnam."
Coulter (looking desperate): "Indochina?"
McKeown: "Uh no. Canada ...second World War of course. Korea. Yes. Vietnam No."
Coulter: "I think you're wrong."
McKeown: "No, took a pass on Vietnam."
Coulter: "I think you're wrong."
McKeown: "No, Australia was there, not Canada."
Coulter: "I think Canada sent troops."
McKeown: "No."
Coulter: "Well. I'll get back to you on that."
McKeown tags out in script:
"Coulter never got back to us -- but for the record, like Iraq, Canada sent no troops to Vietnam."
