Summary: Awful Wretched Skank
Review: What an awful wretched skank this "woman" is. You don't even need to be a Liberal to hate her--just a woman, she doesn't think they deserve the right to vote. Liberal media bias? Where? Fox News? CNN (people call them LEFT? Nuts, shows how much the Right really knows about the Left), MSNBC? Colmes and Matthews are hardly liberal, in fact, Colmes is a Republican. Sorry, but there is no Liberal media, other than NPR, I suppose. Horrible, awful book. Filled with as much truth as the dossier on Iraq.PS: Hannity (of Fox News fame) thinks she's insane--and people still think she's right? Nuts.

Summary: Coulter does it again!
Review: After reading Slander and High Crimes and Misdemeanors, I could not wait for this book to come out. I preordered it and read it in two days. I was absolutely astonished. Coulter's latest book is a clear, logical analysis of the left's anti-American behavior during the past 50 years. (I have to admit that I thought Slander was a better book, simply because that's what really put her on the map, but this book is at the same level in terms of style and persuasiveness.) To get one thing clear, Coulter does not blame all liberals of treason -- she blames mostly the left elite. She is not talking about the little old lady next door who always votes for Democrats. (I picked this up from various interviews she did promoting the book.) Coulter is right on the money in her analysis of the McCarthy episode. She exposes the left's ambiguity and adamant denial of the truth McCarthy was trying to unveil. The left tried to make McCarthy seem like a complete bigot who destroyed thousands of lives (they have yet to name one individual affected by McCarthy). To the left, it was okay to let communists work within our government and collect money from the federal payroll. But when someone tries to point it out, they are guilty of infringing upon civil liberties. I don't recall anybody being praised for spying on their government and being paid to do so by our enemy. We caught Robert Hansen, so why couldn't we point out others decades before the Hansen incident? With Vietnam, she hits the head on the nail. The Pentagon Papers said LBJ was losing the war, so the left went into a tizzy and tried to make us lose. They lost hope in our leadership and pretty much gave up on America once and for all. Vietnam was the straw that broke the left's back; they lost all admiration for our government, values, and commitments. They did nothing to help America win that war. And now they use it as an excuse to not go to war ever again. If LBJ had the guts to actually make a valid effort to win in Vietnam, our perception of war in general wouldn't be so cynical and opposition to our current conflict in Iraq wouldn't have been so great. Coulter writes a couple of chapters on how Reagan won the Cold War. I have to admit I got tired of reading "Reagan won the Cold War" every other line, but she's right. If Reagan didn't win the Cold War, who did? Or were the United States and the USSR both losers? And she exposes the left's deep hatred for the Gipper too. SDI, Rekjavik, and Iran-Contra all sounded the alarms in the liberal community. And fortunately, they were all wrong on those issues, too. Conservatives need to stand up and let the truth be known. Coulter did so, and the left is simply aghast. (That would be the idea, wouldn't it?) Don't read the silly reviews at spinsanity.org because they just bring up a bunch of minor points and grievances with the book. They could never call her on the Venona Project, but on a minor detail in an article she wrote a few years ago that they slightly misunderstood. Do yourself and your country a favor this summer and read this book!

Summary: There is no zero rating
Review: As I read the reviews previously posted, I have to laugh and I have to cry. I laugh because the reviews are as fictional as the book. One reviewer counted 891 sources. Unfortunately, the reviewer failed to check (or apparently care) that many of the citations were works of fiction as well. Just because it is written doesn't mean it is true. Only people who cannot think for themselves accept the word of others as true without checking any of the facts for themselves. Ann Coulter is calculating, loud, rude, and worst of all a malicious liar who has misrepresented, it seems, at least a fact a page. She presents quotes from columnists whose columns appeared in The New York Times, but cites them as being the opinion of the newspaper, not the opinion of the columnist. She refers to a Secretary of State in Truman's administration from a time during which he was not Secretary of State, and attributes comments to Truman that were, in fact, made by someone else. That's just a few...if you read this book, beware. There are many, many more fabrications, errors and just plain lies. Verify before you accept anything she presents. A casual review of her publisher's catalogue would make most readers wince. This is not a publisher interested in ideas or truth, rather in blindly promoting a viscious agenda.

Summary: Coultier's "facts" are not really facts
Review: One should not assume that something is a fact simply because the author presents a footnote. Coultier repeatedly misattributes quotes and, in some cases says things in her book that are absolute bald-faced lies. Here are just two examples of misrepresentations and utter falsehoods in Coultier's writing: 1) She says that the New York Times "barely mentioned the release" of the Venona Project," because it would have detracted from stories of victims of McCarthyism. This is an outright lie. The Times ran a 1,000 word story on the declassification when it happened.. a far cry from "barely mentioning" it. 2)Coultier states that Ramsey Clark, who had been Attorney General under Lyndon Johnson, said that Iran should be able to "determine its own fate." This was actually a reporter's paraphrase summarizing what Clark had said the Ayatolla's views are. Clark himself had never presented this as HIS view, or ever even used those words, and it is obvious to anyone who reads the actual article (including Coultier, I'm sure, who has obviously misquoted him for the purpose of furthering the validity of her own views upon the reader) that this was not presented as his view. Coultier consistently distorts facts to the point of buidling up a straw man and openly deceiving the reader. She has no qualms about bending facts like rubber bands, or even manufacturing her own quotes based on very loose hearsay (which is obvious when a search of the references she cites brings up something very different) in order to impress her opinion upon the reader. If you decide to read this book, I strongly recommend that you be prepared to check the sources referred to by Coultier, rather than assuming the accuracy of ANYTHING she quotes in the book.

Summary: Great History Lesson
Review: I found this book to be as informative as it was entertaining. The most significant section of the book is her defense of Senator McCarthy. This is a man who has been vilified by history book authors for too many years. Ms. Coulter demonstrates that he was a patriot who was steadfast in the defense of the USA in the face of actual Soviet agents operating in the federal government. The chapter on the Chambers-Hiss matter was also a great history lesson on a subject that is now often forgotten. I also would recommend Chambers' book "Witness" as a fascinating personal account of this important chapter in American history.

Summary: Treason
Review: Queen Ann has done it again! With her God given gifts for writing, Coulter has produced another blockbuster. TREASON is a hard right punch to the liberal's midsection. Over and over again, she presents facts (documented in her references) which show that the left has intentionally censored important historical information from the American people. In doing so she exposes the left's arguments for the shams that they have always been. When you combine that with the fact that she is one of the most entertaining current affairs writers of our time, you can understand why the liberals have come to fear and despise her. (A fact which Coulter takes great pride in.) Coulter readers number in the hundreds of thousands. But unfortunately for the left they are the NEW movers and shakers of our society. TREASON is the third in Coulter's "take no liberal prisoners" trilogy. If you love America then you should delight in this read. But if you don't and if you feel guilty and ashamed about America's role in the world, then it would be best if you invested your time and monies on one of the works by America's passe leftists.

Summary: Informative and detailed Information about the Left
Review: Ann Coulter, backs up all of her statements about the Liberal Left, with evidence. All the reviews of her books that I have read by the Liberal Left, do not come out and say, Ann Coutler said this...and it is not true because of this reason.... All of their reviews are fluff, with no proof.
It is an easy read. Very informative. I recommend it highly.

Summary: You Conservative Hypocrites
Review: Boy, you right wingers really are nuts, aren't you? How dare you people talk about a liberal controlled media when news networks like CNN and MSNBC have had their noses so far up the Bush administration's rear end since 9/11 that I'm surprised they have room to breathe. And to talk about how liberals re-write history? Cripes, like conservatives didn't do that with regard to things like the Iran-Contra affair and the S&L scandals. Also, don't forget how George W. is removing entire sections from an EPA report because it will expose the evils our SUV nation is having upon the environment. Give me a break you turkeys. I think the Democrats are almost as evil as the Republicans, something I'm willing to admit as a liberal minded person, but you conservatives really can do no wrong can you? Your poop never stinks does it? Do us all a favor and get the hell out of this great country.

Summary: Perfect except for one thing
Review: I loved this book. It finally brought the true story of Joe McCarthy into light. I, myself, had never heard of the Venona project, and, even as a conservative, had thought McCarthy was a paranoid fanatic. I now see that, many more times than not, he was right. I do have one problem, though. She says that all liberals are traitors. While I agree that (and would bet money on) the fact that most traitors in this country are from the left, and think that most of the rest are un-American in their thoughts, I do not think that they are all traitorous fiends. This cost her a fifth star. That point aside, it is a great book. And for those uninformed liberals who immediately go on the defensive at the mention of the name "Ann Coulter": Did it ever occur to you that someone on the right (politically speaking) might actually be in the right (as in being correct)? ...

Summary: wow....
Review: How can she say these kinds of things? Everything in this book is a huge steriotype thats based on lie's itself! The title of this book itself is a huge giveaway - "Liberal Treachery from the Cold War to the War on Terrorism." Now tell me, you being the reader, is being anti war and beliving in equality treachery? If this is true than isent "Patriotism" is the act of being PRO war and against equality? What does that say about our country? And if this statment is true, then doesent that mean that the Womens Suffreage Act, and the freedom of blacks purely liberal acts? I can hardely see why anyone would see those acts as being "treachery." Overall, I give this book a 1 out of five, there wasent a zero.
