Summary: Never trust a political writer who models...
Review: ...If you're looking for a testament to the lengths people are willing to go for selfish reasons, look no further. Ann Coulter is beyond over the top. It's impossible to take her book seriously; the title itself is dubious, and the militant claims she makes in "Treason's" pages are laughable. The only thing that keeps this book from being funny, and makes it disgusting, is that apparently many people actually believe her.If one looks up "lightweight intellectual" in the dictionary, one might find Ann Coulter's photo. It would also say "see hypocrisy, irony, deception," and "filth." This author has made a career out of political name-calling.

Summary: Shocking, Communists Spys Saved By Liberals
Review: Never in school had I learned the other half of McCarthyism, it please me that this book was published and held with a high regaurd. It exposes the Alexander Hiss and the rest of the elitest communist scum that were protected by liberals firends (socialist scum) while handing over US secrets to the evil empire. WTF! Bravo for Ann revealing this to the next generation, I know you derived many facts from others work, but if it wasn't for her I would not have been enlightened in this matter.

Summary: For those who want the truth.
Review: It seems that this review page is extremely liberal. I wish that the many on this review page that claim to be middle-of-the-road to strengthen their "objective" comments would just admit that they actually are liberals.
Ann coulter is right on. Today we see the same kind of thing happening as happened at the time of McCarthy. Al Gore (and he did actually lose the election!) just yestarday stated that the Bush administration has brought us closer to the Big Brother government foreseen by Orwell than he ever imagined possible. CAN SOMEBODY TELL ME WHO HAS LOST THEIR CIVIL RIGHTS BECAUSE OF THE PATRIOT ACT?!?! These men lie and they are not just missinformed; they are politicians of the worst kind. The Patriot Act was supported by both democrats and republicans. And now democrats like Gore want to twist it into saying it's a violation of civil liberties. I do believe there are honest and sincere politicians on both sides of the isle, yet it seems the demcratic party is being hijacked by the extreme left. Let us not forget the one of the most terrible violations of civil liberties in the last century was the internment of the Japanese under the hand of FDR.
It is time that honest men and women teach, write, and study real history and not the revisionist garbage that we get in our universities, newpapers, and mainstream media because knowledge is power. Thank you Ann Coulter for exposing one of the biggest lies of the 20th century.

Summary: Failures of Ms. Coulter
Review: Ms. Coulter tries to write an intriguing commentary on the left, yet she uses circular logic, uncited facts and mischaracterizes the works she does cite. Ms. Coulter will often go on page-long rants that include various uncited "facts". Also Ms. Coulter uses often one of the most deviant devices in debate: ad hominem attacks. She will vigorously attack all liberals and Democrats calling them "womanly", "whinning", "treacherous", "mean-sprited" and various other attacks. Yet, she takes great offense that people would attack Senator McCarthy by calling him a "bully" or other such comments. Ms. Coulter is to the right what Barbra Streisand is to the left: a blowhard who does not have enough sense to keep her mouth shut. At least though Streisand does not claim to be an intellectual.

Summary: Mein Kampf????
Review: Reminded me of Adolphs book. To much hate is not a good thing darlin. Why do you have so much anger? This book was not entertaining to me and I put it down after a few chapters. If your into anger and blameing everything on Democrats than read it. Most of us in this country are moderates. Neither to far to the right or left. I find the war between the far left and far right to be troublesome.

Summary: Bizarre
Review: This book is bizarre, she is bizarre, and embarassing to conservatives everywhere. This book is a bigoted mess. She has no understanding and empathy for anything outside of her narrow world. She either needs therapy or is "playing" to the fringe right for the money.

Summary: Didn't read it, but that title ...
Review: As a Vietnam vet who served his country for 4 years and his community (as a volunteer for a public agency aiding the mentally disabled) for years afterword, I am sick unto death of being called a "treasonous liberal" for being in favor of a balanced budget, preservation of natural resources, reluctance to go to war, expanded health care, to name a few of my "left wing" ideals. From Webster's Unabridged: Liberal: One who advocates greater freedom of thought or action Conservative: Tending to preserve old institutions, methods, customs, and the like. The terms are not opposites! They are not about socialism, capitalism, "left" or "right", pro- or anti- anything. If we are to take a book seriously, the debate has to contain words of meaning. "The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the
manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words,
you can control the people who must use the words."
(Philip K. Dick)

Summary: Love is the answer
Review: Well, I hate this book. I think the logic in it is deeply flawed and narrow. I think that even when she has good historical points she's privy to 20-20 hindsight and is unable (or refuses) to digest the many external variables that effected historical events. But more importantly, I'm very concerned about the corrosive nature of this kind of book on the country. I'm worried that there is a growing group on the far-right of the spectrum, perhaps 10 million people, who read this like gospel and thus live in a sort of dream-reality. It's a very unhealthy trend. She constantly says that her adversary is 'evil'. I believe Evil exists. Stalin was evil. To say that it's a common trait is an irresponsible and incendiary practice. I don't think she can be discredited, because I'm not sure she is able to feel any shame at being proven wrong. She'll refuse to accept it and just keep on going. And of course she has her right to freedom of speech. I only hope the country can withstand her.

Summary: Fact filled and intriguing
Review: Ann Coulter doesn't mind saying what she thinks. In this book she applies her spin to the political history of the McCarthy era. Her points are explained logically with concise details of history as she percieves it. This book certainly has a spin to it, but it also inspires thought and prodded me into doing a bit more research. I enjoy books that take a stance that is contrary to popular opinion and value them for inspiring thought and debate. This book is certainly capable of doing that and is a great alternative view for anyone interested in political history. It is best read with an open mind. Those with pre-formed opinions will either blindly love or hate this book depending on where their beliefs lie.
