Summary: An unsettling trend
Review: History will not remember 'Treason', 'Slander', or probably any of Ann Coulter's work, but it will remember that we live in a time of great dissention between the left and the right. This book represents the worst of America, not because it is conservative, but because it is propaganda designed to inflame the passions and anger of both liberals and conservatives, thus selling books. The anger it incenses is the worst kind - hate born of ignorance and prejudice. For those who believe in America and a conservative idealogy, they would be better served reading more informative, mature material. For those who are of a liberal leaning, they would be well advised to ignore this particular work. By spending time reviewing knowlegable, educated works, we will all be in a better position to participate in the great social debate. Claptrap like this belongs rather in the rubbish bin. As a lifelong Republican and conservative, I find this work offensive, vulgar and a waste of time.

Summary: Awesome Ann!!!
Review: Ann is a true American patriot who has done a great service in meticulously outlining the despicable treachery of the Left. She skillfully tells how liberals have tried to harm America from the Cold War to the present. Carefully explaining the Left's infatuation with the communists and America's other enemies, Ann pulls no punches with this superb and refreshing expose of the truth about liberals. She references everything to back up her claims, and the liberals can't do anything to disprove her. They've tried, they've failed. This book should be required reading. Ann is a great heroine for America and conservatives should be proud to have her help.

Summary: Alternate title: "Mein PMS Kampf
Review: Ann is the poster child for the extra-chromosome, frothing-at-the-mouth wing of the Republican Party. Her vituperative and logically incoherent primal screams, "Treason" and "Slander", are perfect illustrations of all that is wrong with modern politics.Generations from now, historians will try to pinpoint the time at which American political life began its epic unraveling. To these yet-unborn generations, Ann's work will prove to be seminal.

Summary: Their own medicine
Review: Ann Coulter is giving the left (both the malignant narcissists and those in denial) some of their own medicine. That explains the impotent howls of rage displayed in many of these reviews. As for the book, it is factual, well researched and engaging. It also rehabilitates McCarthy after all the slander visited upon this patriot over many decades. I enjoy the author's keen insight and her confrontational approach. Long may she expose the real agenda of those who only seek power. Books of related interest include In Defense Of Global Capitalism by Johan Norberg, Anti-Americanism by French author Jean Francois Revel, The Death Of Right And Wrong by Tammy Bruce, The Quest For Cosmic Justice by Thomas Sowell, Envy: A Theory Of Social Behavior by Helmut Schoeck and The New Anti-Semitism by Phyllis Chesler.

Summary: Coulter proudly displays her "F" in Research
Review: Ms. Coulter should have stuck with her original title - "Lies: And the Lying Liar Who's Telling Them." For those looking for facts contrived from fairy dust, you won't be disappointed. Coulter writes for one audience: ostriches shouting from the podium, "I-read-it-so-it-must-be-true!" Her reputation for distorting truth reaches new heights, from flagrantly misappropriating NY Times writer Thomas Friedman's column on racial profiling to naive depictions of all Democrats as liberals. This is a woman whose right hand doesn't know what the left is doing and isn't taking a peek. That means research, and Coulter isn't about to check facts now. She's built a solid reputation for sloppy research and pandering to followers who say, "Golly gee, why git yer high school diploma or rede the paper when we got Ms. Ann here to do the ree-search for us and tell us ever'thing we needs to know!" My recommendation - wait for Ms. Coulter's next book: Rednecks: And other Republican Rights I Write For

Summary: Sloppy writing - not worth the paper it is written on.
Review: All you die hard conservatives who love Ann Coulter, check out this column from the National Review (one of the most conservative online magazine and Ann used to write a column for them). http://www.nationalreview.com/nr_comment/nr_comment100301.shtml You may not believe Al Franken when he says Coulter mis-represents facts but here you have a conservative publication pretty much saying the same thing. After reading this, if you still believe Ann, contact me, I have a bridge that I need to dispose of.
