Rating:  Summary: Right on the Money Review: Ignore the whining left. This is a fun book and right on the money.Yesterday I was talking about this book with my one token liberal friend and the Florida vote in the last presidential election came up. My friend claims to live by the rule of Occam's razor, "All other things being equal, the simplest solution is usually the correct one". So I pointed out that maybe the simplest reason Bush won 8 recounts, all of which were done at the request of the democrats and some of which were done by democrats was that Bush actually got more votes. But my liberal friend had a "simpler" solution. All the democrats involved in the recounts had been bought out by the republicans. Liberals really do live in their own fantasy world. If you can read that last sentence and not starting foaming at the mouth you will love this book.
Rating:  Summary: Politically incorrect but correct Review: It is amazing in these times to find someone who isn't afraid to be politically incorrect and very correct on the subject. In Slander, Coulter shows in detail how the media have distorted facts to fit their liberal agenda. For some, the book is/will be too direct and cutting to the quick. I, however, appreciate the truth in a hard-hitting, right-in-my-face fashion. If you want to tip-toe through the tulips on the truth, then you won't want to read this book. I like Coulter's wit and sarcasm especially when she is exposing the truth, real and uncovered by liberal slant and hatred. It is a joy to read but also very disturbing to see how the masses are deceived daily by newspapers, columnists, and newschannels with an obvious goal towards that end.
Rating:  Summary: Outstanding Insight by a Fantastic Writer Review: Just finished this book. Wow. Ann hits it dead on. This should be required reading for all thinking Americans. This has to scare liberals to death. Watch them get out their flame-thowers and attempt to discount Ann's truths.
Rating:  Summary: Liberals Exposed Review: Ms. Coulter hits a grand slam with this book detailing the liberal hypocricies in this country. She lays out a great case of how liberals continue to lie and spread their own propaganda to advance their own shallow idealogy. Liberals have become so mean spirited and unwilling to debate anything beyond calling conservatives names and it is great that they can no longer get away with it now that the conservative point of view can now get out there with Fox News and conservative books. Liberals complain that they can't get their message out there but the fact is that they still have control over all the major news networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) and CNN. They just can't accept the fact that their message is out there, but Americans don't want to hear it anymore. Great book!!!
Rating:  Summary: Adds little to political discourse in United States Review: A poorly written and researched book, "Slander" attempts to offer reasons why liberal policy and politics are inherently flawed. Coulter makes broad generalizations and stereotypes all liberals while using inconclusive sources to support her own theories. Intrisically, Ann Coulter disregards much of her own rhetoric about liberals being closed to alternative viewpoints by dismissing all liberal viewpoints. The intent of this work is clearly to provide a platform for political pundits that wears the guise of credible work. "Slander" does little to improve the political discourse in the United States, but effectively injects more divisiveness into the discussion. I would suggest David Frum as an author that more effectively and eloquently articulates the conservative world view.
Rating:  Summary: Total garbage Review: Please allow me to summarize Ms. Coulter's thesis: all of the problems that we experience in the United States have been caused by liberals so if everyone would just be conservative like me the world would be a happy happy place. If you are honestly dillusional enough to accept this then by all means buy this book, you two deserve each other.
Rating:  Summary: truth! slander Review: Liberals Just can't handle the truth! Slander is right on the mark. Facts facts facts plain simple truthful, no bull recommended read for any College Kid. you go Ann!
Rating:  Summary: Antidote to Semantic Bedlam of the Left Review: Coulter once again takes pen in hand and impales the political left on their own words. In light of the disgraceful fall of the New York Times editorial staff for persistently shoddy journalism, Coulter appears to be almost prophetic. Probably the best line in the book is the terse observation that: "Liberals argue by creating semantic bedlam." Anyone who has had the misfortune of having to argue anything with a liberal knows the truth of that simple statement. The American public has grown tired of liberal hectoring and screaming. This well written and eminently readable books is a good antidote to the poison put out by the main scream media. A must read!
Rating:  Summary: Pure Garbage Review: This one will end up in the land fills like all of her other offerings. And I'm sure there will be more hate to come from her. A waste of money!
Rating:  Summary: Some people need to check their facts Review: the ONE thing Coulter did in her life which deserves praise, it the one thing ignored in these reviews by conservatives. She WAS THE ONE WHO GOT "Stupid White Men" published!!! She made the call to the publisher to help Moore get the book to print. Moore's book IS researched and cited from cover to cover. Sadly, Ms. Coulter does not take the time to do the same, and her "facts" are more tilted that a windmill in Don Quixiote. Her prose reads more like bitter angry prose than a hard core examination of truth.
