Summary: This book is awesome!
Review: "people should refuse to read it" ? Wel, thank you very much but it is our constitutional righ (yes, even for us, non-citizens, formerly of the Gulag to read it. Ann Coulter hits a home run. Now she is really getting to the liberals, Look how upset they are this time! It's the Rush-Hannity-Savage-Reagan-Ingraham-Coulter brigade - can't stop us!! Ann, I hope you enjoy reading these reviews - this is better than prime-time television. :) Notice all the personal remarks - aren't these people just the kindest most well-meaning people on this planet? And don't worry about Horowitz - he just can't believe your guts. :) Just like those Capital Report hosts you talked to the other day. :)

Summary: Oh, Be Quiet
Review: Reading TREASON by Ann Coulter is like reading a paper written by a third-grade playground bully. She name-calls (Janeane Garofalo is a "nitwit" and a "lemon pucker puss" just for being opposed to the war, and former president Jimmy Carter is "Lord Haw-Haw", just because she couldn't think up a more clever name for him) and she says really ignorant things such as "Everyone says that liberals love America, too. No, they don't." And the most disgusting thing is how pro-murder this woman is. She talks of war and killing Iraqis as if it's the greatest idea in the world. No wonder she considers herself and all other conservatives so pro-America - they want to kill everyone who is not American. Well pardon us liberals who don't always see it fit to slaughter people of other countries, just because they live in a place that contains tons of oil. Coulter spends the whole book "exposing" the truth about liberals and how evil they are, while failing to point out how many lousy things conservatives have done for this country as well. If she's going to point fingers, she'd better include everyone, because both sides have made mistakes. It's just the way politics work. Coulter tries so hard to be the conservative Michael Moore, but she lacks his humor and his intelligence. She whines and complains that liberals are anti-America when they speak their minds about the war, when the greatest thing about America is that you CAN speak your mind and not get dragged out into the street and shot for it. The fact that Ms. Coulter fails to see it that way tells me that she, herself, does not appreciate our country. She wants to point fingers? She should start with herself. TREASON will no doubt appeal to conservatives, and liberals will want to throw it in the fireplace. All of the 5-star reviews will have been written by conservatives, and the 1-star ones will be by liberals, no doubt. Yes, I'm a liberal, therefore her book offends me to a certain degree. But that's not the only reason I'm giving it one star. This woman is supposed to be a serious political writer, yet all the name-calling has her appearing very immature (she thinks she's being funny, but she's not). I won't even get into the fact that everyone says the book is not even well-researched, because truthfully I don't know a whole lot about political history, so I cannot confirm that. But I do know that this woman is seriously disturbed. And judging from most of the reviews on this site, I am not the only one who thinks so.

Summary: political pornography (or unintentional political humor?)
Review: So you want to know "Will I like and agree with Ann Coulter's new book?". It just so happens that the answer to that question is identical to the answers to the following questions: 1) Was Harry Truman an evil genius who hid his communist sympathies by fighting a very unpopular war against communism in Korea? 2) Could we have attacked China (Russia would probably have joined in) and won even though we were losing to the Chinese in North Korea? 3) Was Joe McCarthy someone you would want your daughter to marry? Answer these yes and you'll love the book. Answer them no and you'll hate the book.
At least it IS amusing.

Summary: Great!
Review: Another home run by the redoubtable Ms. Coulter. And the various one-star reviews keep proving her points, over and over. BTW, pay NO attention to reviewers like "A reader from Sacramento, CA " -- I can't IMAGINE a more bigoted response than to say that someone he disagrees with should be "prevented from reproducing"! And this person is, no doubt, VERY proud of his/her "tolerance"! Give me a BREAK!!

Summary: An upclose and personal look...
Review: If you want to see the conservative, radical right upclose and personal, read this book. What concerns me most is that (1) even though scholars dispute Coulter's "findings", people are buying into her revisionist view of history and (2) you're either "with 'em" or "agin 'em"....and if you're "agin 'em", you're destined to burn in hell. We'll always have radicals at both ends of the spectrum, but what scares me is that this new breed of the radical right is so mean and hate-filled. Venom virtually drips off every page of this book. Our country was founded on freedom of speech and while I disagree with every word of this book, I'll fight to defend Coulter's right to say them. I wonder if she'd do the same for James Carville.

Summary: Out of Control
Review: I did not buy this book and will not read it. Ann Coulter is so shrill and out of control, even die-hard conservatives are distancing themselves from this book. Joe McCarthy as a patriotic hero? Give me a break. And Coulter is as devoid of class as she is of logic, making "fat jokes" about Hillary Rodham Clinton on national TV as she was flogging her book. The First Amendment (which she otherwise disdains) gives her the right to publish this book...but people should refuse to read it.

Summary: Horrifying
Review: Ann Coulter's newest book, like her last one, is full of fallacies. She misquotes, misleads, and outright lies. A few of her "facts" are easily debunked by anyone picking up a history book.
For example: For all her McCarthy-worship, Coulter leaves out that the man had repeatedly lied in court during his defense of Nazi S.S. officers in 1949. Look it up. It happened. But facts like that matter little to Coulter's incredibly uneducated fans. Republicans and Democrats alike should be worried that this book has become so popular, and that Coulter has so many followers.

Summary: Know Your Enemy
Review: Ms. Coulter debates in tones of scorn, contempt and tortured logic not seen by this reader since the book, "Mein Kampf." The author gives little evidence that is not tainted by her partisan prejudice against the liberal left, airing the most outlandish accusations without regard for proof or logical argument. An apparently talented attorney gone berserk with hatred that is almost comical in its vituperation if not for the deadly seriousness of the author's intent. In a country that prides itself in the freedom of expression, I welcome this outlet for the deranged and hateful propogandists of the right. I believe that most thoughtful readers will be so offended by this screed that they will rightfully conclude the source of such diatribes are wrong and unbalanced in their mind. Those drawn to this pole of the political spectrum have no use for reason and place themselves so far outside the mainstream of American discourse as to be seen for the fringe element they represent.

Summary: Why such a fuss about a poorly written book?
Review: I frankly expected this book to be the usual morass of poorly written, abominably researched facts and a blatant grasp for notoriety at all costs. I was not disappointed. Ann Coulter apparently must believe she is superior to all human beings with any intelligence for she written such a vitriolic book full of half truths that words fail to express my outrage such a book is a best seller. But then, Coulter is paid to write and say anything. My advice: if you have the book....

Summary: Scary
Review: I used to think Ann Coulter had some valid, well thought-out ideas to improve the every day lives of American citizens. However, after reading her book I have come to the conclusion that she is delusional and border-line loco. This book is filled with half-truths and outright lies. I hope that people who read her claims research them on their own before believing her stories. When she gives interviews or participates in discussions, one gets a sense that she is rather full of herself. She thinks she knows it all, but she does not (I don't think anyone really does). Ann Coulter's ideas are scary. If half of what she preaches was practiced, I fear for the future of this country. I would not recommend this book to anyone.
