Summary: LIberals ARE unpatriotic
Review: Ann Coulter gives us the discussion liberals have previously not allowed us to have; and that is that liberals are in fact UNpatriotic. Though they claim the opposite, in fact Ann brings to our attention the notion we always knew in our minds but weren't allowed (by liberals) to say-- that liberals are forever harping on America and constantly criticizing it. They are decidedly NOT patriotic. Thank you, Ann, for once again telling the truth and debunking more liberal lies.

Summary: Do you want to go where the "Progressives" want us to?
Review: In Treason, Ann Coulter makes a compelling case for the absolute, mind-boggling pro-Communist attitude within the Democratic party. From the 1946 election wipeout caused by pro-Communist attitudes coming to the forefront, to the evidence of the policy of containment's failure to contain Communism, Coulter pulls no punches in her criticism of the liberal positions on foreign policy. In one of the more daring parts of the book, she gives credit to Joe McCarthy for his efforts in trying to root out Communism and actually finding spies in the government. She works to prove that McCarthy was a saint, not a sinner, for finding spies such as Alger Hiss, the Rosenbergs, and other Communist spies. Some may say, "Why revisit this whole episode?" The answer is simple, progressives play mostly by the same playbook that they used to destroy McCarthy (who effectively nailed Communist moles even as media and Congress went on a witch hunt that cost him his career and health), always using other people's words to paint a picture of Joesph McCarthy as a fascist and a right wing nutball like they do with other conservatives today. Coulter also praises former President Reagan, as she exorts her readers to uses the "Reagan won the Cold War" litmus test to draw liberals out of the woodwork. She also talks about she draws the Orwellian parallels between the Communists and modern-day Progressives, documenting the behavior of liberals from the end of World War II to the end of the Soviet Empire and beyond, also taking time to point to the pro-Communist attitudes of Hollywood actors such as Ed Asner, Mike Farrell, and Janeane Garofalo, just Whether you are conservative, liberal, or just out there, this book comes to the table with with no punches pulled and the vivid writing style that you have come to expect from Ann Coulter. It will make you think, it will challenge you, and it might even make you very angry, depending on your political background.

Summary: Uncovering The Commie Left In America
Review: Ann Coulter does it again!Fantastic research, she tells the true story of Senator Joe McCarthy's exposure of the actual hidden Commies in the US government and and shows why 57 current Democrat members of the US Congress admit to being members of the Socialist Democrats of America.Whether they hide from the tag "liberal" or attempt to be reborn claiming the "progressive" label, they are still hiding under the pillowcase from exposure as Socialist Communists.What a page turner!Atta lady Annie!Books don't get any better then this!

Summary: Another Winner
Review: Having just read Hillary's screed, "Living History," and now Ann Coulter's "Treason," I must say Ann's book is a much better read. It doesn't read as if it was written by several writers with different styles and, like in her other books, her sources are well-documented. Her grasp of actual history compares favorably with Hillary's made up version. Ann is a bright and humorous writer in a subject area that seems to elicit a considerable amount of animosity. Well done, Ann. I can hardly wait for your next book.

Summary: Glad We Are On The Same Side.
Review: Liberal Weenies must be running for cover. Ms Coulter has done it again. When God gave out talents he endowed Ms Coulter with beauty and brains. This dynamic lady should aim for the White House. I'll pound on doors for her in a heart beat. Hillary talks about "gasping for air". Ann talks with credentials and backs up her statements with the truth. Ms. Coulter nails Nobel Peace Prize winner Jimmy Carter and his honest buddy, Clinton. I'm so glad that Ann and I are on the same side. I can tell you now I wouldn't stand a chance in debate with this talented lady. This is "must reading" for all America.

Summary: A rallying cry for America's future Amish
Review: I've always appreciated Conservative rants as a form of post-cyberpunk metafiction. To read the rantings of a Sean Hannity or Michael Savage, one can actually believe one is living in an accelerating, fragmenting future similar to the worlds described in Alvin Toffler's "Future Shock" or Neal Stephenson's "Diamond Age" -- i.e. a world where nation states are breaking down and being replaced by small, ideologically-defined tribal networks. Indeed, one can easily imagine today's cult of Conservatism becoming something akin to a high-tech Amish culture 20 years from now, complete with anachronistic dress codes and their own special "Conservative meal" menus served on airliners. Ann Coulter's new book, unfortunately, fails to deliver that crazy magic thrill of being part of a "society in transformation" which other Conservative writers have delivered in recent years. Ms. Coulter, to her credit, knows her tribal niche market well and pours on the "Us versus Them" rhetoric in generous slop buckets, undiluted by facts, footnotes or logic. Unfortunately there's no intellectual ammo to be found in this book. Ms. Coulter asserts everything and proves nothing. What this means for you, the Culture War Consumer, is a good sustained adrenaline rush and a renewed sense of outrage against your hated "Liberal" enemy, but no persuasive arguments to wield against said enemy. Likewise, for normal Americans who are curious about the game rules of Conservative tribalism, you'll find nothing useful here. It's all pretty much a rallying cry and no discussion of first principles. You'd be much better off reading "Savage Nation" or revisiting the classic works of William F. Buckley. And for the pop-futurist, interested in scanning the media for emerging nodes of social change, definitely pick up Bruce Sterling's "Tomorrow Now," which has an excellent chapter dedicated to the breakdown of the nation state and the rise of neo-tribalism. Ann Coulter's book is, however, notable for its exploitation of the cultural amnesia regarding the infamous Joe McCarthy. There's a gap in public memory just big enough for Ms. Coulter to drive her lumbering truck of a book through, and she floors it, safely betting that few of her fans ever saw the March 9th, 1954 edition of Edward R. Murrow's "See It Now" (or if they did see it, they've forgotten it.) You can perhaps find this video at your city library. The sight and sound of Joe McCarthy repeatedly breaking into squealing, high-pitched giggles during an otherwise sober Congressional hearing did more to destroy his reputation than the alleged armies of revisionist Liberal historians ever could. Simply by pointing a video camera at the man and letting him fulminate and gibber, Edward R. Murrow exposed McCarthy for the fruitcake he was. It's remarkable now to realize that this 30 minutes of famous and important television, a pillar of America's public consciousness a generation ago, has faded so completely into obscurity.

Summary: Ann Coulter Needs Medication...No Kidding
Review: After reading this book I'm more sure than ever that Ann Coulter needs some serious psychiatric help. Zyprexa might be good to help deal with her hallucinations/psychotic meanderings and paranoia. Maybe a good SSRI like celexa or paxil to help even out her neurotic obsession with seeing the world as so "black and white", refusing to acknowledge the inevitability of "grey areas" that the rest of us deal with on a daily basis. Please don't put money in this woman's hands by buying this book. If you must, send her information on medications that could help her live her life more fully and with alot more grace.
