Summary: Similar to Stupid White Men, by Michael Moore
Review: Slamming of those with different view points, half truths, lopsided viewpoints, and downright irrationality. Coulter, The right's answer to Michael Moore, proves that smuggness and loathing are all it takes to sell a book in these divided times.Not a book for those easily nauseated. Pure tripe.

Summary: Refreshing Rebuke
Review: Ann Coulter's voice is a refreshing rebuke to the endless tripe the liberal media espouses. Her sarcastic wit may put this unabashed exposé of liberal treachery a little over the top for some, but she is right on the mark in nailing Liberals for what they are. There is a certain gratification while reading this book as it ruthlessly confirms notions and suspicions of Liberal motives. If you ever watched the Network News, read the New York Times, or suffered through Liberal rantings and wondered, "What planet are they living on?", then this book will go a long way in illuminating the underpinnings of their entire ethos.

Summary: Ann Coulter
Review: Ann Coulter's views on issues are similar to Rush Limbaugh who has some entertainment value, but no intellectual value. Ann Coulter is vulgar, racist, and boring.

Summary: Why do Democrats defend treason? Read and see.
Review: Although I am familiar with her columns, I have never read one of her books. Before reading this book, I was concerned that her style, which is well suited to column writing, might not translate well to a full length book. It turns out I was wrong. The book is an easy read, full of information that few people today will be aware of. This book will make dogmatic, knee-jerk Democrats wail. However, if read by more open minded folks, this book might just encourage some to take a closer look at the actual events of the "McCarthy" era rather than just what "everybody knows" about it. If you grant her her point, doesn't honesty require her to be outraged as she is? Yes. But the liberal sob sisters and fellow travellers will demonstrate their complicity with treason by not even admitting this point.

Summary: An excellent book
Review: I devoured Ann Coulter's previous book, 'Slander', and so I was eagerly awaiting 'Treason.' Coulter didn't dissapoint me. 'Slander' focused on the smear campaign liberals have waged against conservatives and gave many fascinating insights into the left's strategy and way of thinking. 'Treason' goes a step further and shows how liberals have sided with this country's enemies at every oppurtunity. It also debunks the liberal myths about 'McCarthyism' and shows how the left has used those myths as a shield from criticism. Coulter's no-holds-barred style will frighten and enrage many liberals, and it should. They have no answers for her powerful arguments, only the same tired tactics they've been employing for years. But what should really worry liberals is the fact that 'Slander' was a bestseller, and 'Treason' is destined to be one as well.

Summary: It's OK to call someone who really was a Commie a Commie
Review: Relying heavily but but not exclusively on the declassified Venona project cables (some of which can be seen on the web), Coulter names names and points out that all the darlings of the left, especially Alger Hiss, who starred in the spy scandals of the forties and fifties were really guilty as sin. These idealists sold out their country in favor of the charming people who brought you the Gulag and the Cultural Revolution.
Anyone with even a shred of intellectual honesty should enjoy this book. Those on the left, lacking in intellectual honesty, will decline the invitation to refute her contentions with facts and will either ignore the book or, in typical liberal fashion, resort to name calling.

Summary: A fair and balanced defense of McCarthyism
Review: Oh, yes, this is the kind of America I want to live in! An America where it is treasonous to criticize the president (unless he is a Democrat). Where only people that agree with ME are considered patriots! Where a Committee on Un-American Activities is a good thing! Yes! Let's have one in every community! We'll just let each community vote, anything unpopular will be declared Un-American! We could all turn in our neighbors if they criticized the government! What a great country this would be! Ann Coulter is not funny, she is scary. If it were up to people like her, America would not be worth defending. I have always considered myself a moderate, able to listen and learn from both sides. I have always believed that most conservatives and liberals are people of good faith, with common goals -- just disagreements about how best to reach them. If Ms. Coulter represents what conservative Americans believe then I have been very wrong and the historical ideals of America are in jeopardy. What about it, conservatives? Does Ms. Coulter speak for you?

Summary: Embarrassed for conservatives
Review: There are crazy people on both ends of the political spectrum. That's a given. But, while serious liberals tend to shun the patchouli-scented, hemp-supporting lunatics of their leftist left flank, it seems that conservatives really do embrace their nuts. There is no better example of this than Ann Coulter. This is a woman who said that her "only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building" and that Muslim countries should be invaded and forcibly converted to Christianity. Yet, her worst sin -- because, being obviously crazy she could hardly help these "Tourette's Syndrome" moments -- is that, even when she's obviously lucid enough to try to back up her arguments, she's intellectually dishonest at best. She was proven a liar by numerous writers after her first book and, if I had the time and inclination, I could spend days pointing out the obvious flaws in this most recent one. But, just look at the first page and you'll see the spinning of fact. If you're an honest thinker (on either side of the political divide), you'll drop the book and soak your hands quickly in alcohol. Let's give one short example of intellectual dishonesty. Coulter writes: 'Liberals mock Americans who love their country, calling them cowboys, warmongers, religious zealots, and jingoists. By contrast, America's enemies are called "Uncle Joe," "Fidel," "agrarian reformers," and practitioners of a "religion of peace."' It seems to me, though, that I remember a certain warmongering religious zealot jingoist cowboy named George W. Bush saying that Islam was "a religion of peace." If she thinks Bush is a liberal, then who qualifies as a conservative? Torquemada? There is also the inherent problem in Coulter's book that she defends Joseph McCarthy throughout, while saying that liberals who question their government are traitors. What, then, was McCarthy? At the basic level of his actions, he was question the direction of his government. Was this treason? Books like this are timed to come out every so often in order to force the media back onto the conservative side of arguments lest they be labeled liberal. They're especially needed now, when it seems obvious that the Bush Administration misled people and sent Americans to die based on incomplete or trumped up information. Maybe that's not such a bad thing, since some liberals do tend to get carried away and (in the interest of full disclosure) let me point out one person who said something terrible against our government. He said, "As you hear of this story of high treason, I know that you are saying to yourself well, why doesn't Congress do something about it? It is the result of an emotional hangover and a temporary moral lapse which follows every war." That, I'll admit is despicable. Why does the writer hate America so much? Why does that liberal think he can... Oh wait. That's McCarthy again. Never mind.
