Summary: Berkeley Liberal Highly Impressed
Review: I am an incredibly liberal student at the University of California, Berkeley. I really thought that this book would be full of incredulous statements without any backing at all. After reading it, I find myself questioning my liberal ideologies. Ms. Coulter's wit and trite statements has made me question liberalism in a way I never thought I would. As much as I hate to say it, I think I may no longer be able to identify with the left; they really have messed up our country in ways that I never realized. Thanks,Ms. Coulter, for helping me.

Summary: Compelling, well done; Guaranteed to provoke strong reaction
Review: This well written essay on American political culture is guaranteed to provoke a strong reaction from everyone who reads it, no matter which side of the aisle you come from. A blend of logically based political argument, mildly sardonic witicism and social commentary, Ann Coulter does some things few other authors do nearly as well. She clearly states her premise, documents and references the factual basis she used for her conclusions, uses nearly empiracal logic, and comes to final conclusions which are justified by the facts. She does not make argument for it's own sake, but rather, has a point to those issues she addresses.
I absolutely loved this book. At the same time, I know that anyone who doesn't share her conservative ideology will hate it as much as I loved it. Because she presents facts to back up her positions, and does so in a common-sense manner, it will undoubtedly infuriate those who take a different point of view, since it leaves little room to make an intelligent counterpoint. Slander is a powerful statement and an opportunity to provoke discussion on important issues. Ann Coulter is right up there with Rush Limbaugh, David Horowitz and other conservative commentators, but with a distinct difference: her strong use of logic in making argument, and her "cut to the chase" clarity of expression without the hyperbole. This book gets my highest recommendation. Even if you disagree with the authors point of view, this book is thought provoking and insightful.

Summary: Documentation Lost in the Pandering
Review: I still wonder what was Ann Coulter's point in writing this book. The material here isn't new or insightful. After reading this book, I came away from it wondering what kind of America she wants. Well, it is an America where her view of morality, ethics, and public policy reigns supreme, with little regard to what the people want. To be fair, the documentation in the book is pretty good. However, it is lost in the shuffel of her pandering to the right-wing of the country. Her complaints about the liberal media are right out of the 1980s. While she talks a good line about the media being shills for the Democratic party (a questionable claim at best), she glosses over the fact that talk radio is almost completely dominated by conservatives. As I finished the book, I thought about what her goal was. The book reads as a position paper that she hopes will forever catapult her into history as one of the prime lieutenants of the conservative movement, if not one of the prime movers and shakers. What she failed to understand is that books like this, with its pandering and take-no-prisoners tone, will pass into oblivion or become the source for humor on late-night television.

Summary: Truth in print
Review: How refreshing! It's so encouraging to read someone who's not afraid to tell the truth. Her statement that Liberals and media (possibly redundant) start with a pile of lies and it becomes impossible to debate them because one has to start from SOME truth. We end up having to "assume" some lie as fact in order to have a starting place. This is a must read.

Summary: #1 on Amazon's list and for good reason
Review: The book's popularity and the Amazon's reviews (6 so far)seem to be at polar opposites. Could it be that Ms. Coulter's reports have struck a nerve and folks want to read about it? I think so! Ms. Coulter's commentary is quite partisan but most readers know this already. I suspect that many conservatives will purchase this to have more examples of the ever apparent liberal bias that exists in the media today, Fox News notwithstanding. The reader will have many examples of liberal lies of the American Right. I look forward to the second edition!

Summary: Fantastic book
Review: Ann sums up all the left-wing lies, slander, and class bigotry that permeates politics and media today. Ever wonder why a liberal can't debate politics without calling you "Hitler" or a "Dittohead"? Read the book. Ever wonder why liberals constantly denounce "hate-speech" but seem to spew some of the most vile, hateful rhetoric? Read the book. Not since Robert Borks "Slouching Towards Gomorrah" have I found political commentary so compelling.

Summary: ann coulter terrifies the left

Summary: A fine piece of investigative reporting!!
Review: Any book about conservatives with as many negative reviews as it's gotten on this web site has to be a great book. I highly doubt any of the reviewers who gave this book such negative reviews actually bought this book much less read it, just a forum to spout their anti-conservative rhetoric and give authenticity to Ann Coulter's thesis. I have bought this book and read it just yesterday. These reviewers have no facts to back up their argument against Miss Coulter's book so they like any good liberal have made their book review a personal attack against Miss Coulter showing their true colors of intolerance. My suggestion is for all liberals to buy this book, read this book and then write a review on Amazon.com. For conservatives there's nothing in this book that you don't already know but buy it any way and give it to a liberal in your office or your cousin Eddy the Liberal. Read and enjoy

Summary: Sharp, Funny, True
Review: This book is hilarious--read how Carter, Dukakis and Mondale failed on account of being "too smart"; and how the killers of James Byrd, sentenced to death, were under-punished because they weren't sent to anger management classes. ..., Coulter does not "write bad". The book is heavily footnoted and supported, but it's a fun read, in the American tradition of puncturing the pompous...

Summary: Great book, frank and honest
Review: Ann's book clearly illustrates the political elite and media bias that is practiced on the left and right coasts. It seems to be that any time a liberal is losing an argument against a conservative, that same liberal resorts to name calling and personal attacks. Thanks, Ann, for shining the light of truth and making the liberals squirm. You go, girl!
