I happened to hear a C-Span re-run of a speech by David Horowitz to Georgetown students in October, 2004. His general theme was that left wing faculty have allied themselves with Islamic (terrorist) radicals against the United States. It was instructive to see how many of his claims there have been subsequently disproved. But one of the real howlers was to accuse feisty Texas columnist, Molly Ivins, of being one of the enemies identified above:

She may not be the best friend of George Bush, but scarcely a terrorist or supporter of same. Her phones may well have been tapped nevertheless, I guess. But for Horowitz presumably anyone connected, as she is, with the ACLU is suspect.
