Rating:  Summary: Pretty Much True Review: You'll not knock this off the hot sheet by rating it low. Buy this book, and put it on the right end of the shelf. Buy Moore's book, and put it on the left end of the shelf.
Rating:  Summary: Read this book! Review: All of the people below that rate this book with one star have not even read the book (it was just released). However, they realize Ann Coulter may hold a different opinion than their political correct indoctrination so they want to slander the book. I'm sure they are convinced they believe in free speech, but in reality, they are nothing but facists trying to prevent you from reading this book. Read the book and form your own opinion.
Rating:  Summary: EYE OPENING BOOK Review: This is a book that every person that considers themselves liberal minded needs to read. I will never vote for a liberal candidate again. I am like most average persons, just go on with my life, but this book has shown me that everyone needs to get involved again in politics. It is scary how far left this country has gone in the last 20 years.I find it dissapointing that a great many critics and readers are reviewing this through the lens of a political party and not the truth. America better open it's eyes and get involved.
Rating:  Summary: Finally a woman who speaks my language! Review: It is about time that someone has the guts to say the things she says. I saw an interview with Katie Courik(?) and Coulter's comparing her to Eva Braum (Hitler's Mistress) was outrageously funny and definately made me remember why we have the 1st amendment. Moments after that i rushed to buy the book. Wonderful!
Rating:  Summary: Right on target Review: Ann has outdone herself with her latest work. She has the guts to say what all conservatives think, but are afraid or reluctant to publicly admit. "Slander" does an excellent job of exposing the Democrat left as the dishonest, moral degenerates that they are. I am glad Ann is on our side.
Rating:  Summary: Don't believe the negative reviews... Review: This is a great book! Liberals, read this book if you dare. Open your minds, liberal media have habitually slandered anyone and labeled them right wing extremists if their views differ from "mainstream" media. This book is a great read!
Rating:  Summary: Ann tears the lid off of the liberal illusion Review: Unlike the so-called book reviews before my post, I actually did read the book. Ann defines how vicious and vindictive the left really are. She points a finger at who the real hate mongers are. Interestingly, they don't even attempt to challenge her ideas by taking a different approach to reviewing her book. You only need to read the negative reviews, barely a half step forward before what she says in the pages of her book become blazingly self evident. The book is filled with quotes from seemingly objective news sources about the hate that liberal's have for conservatives. All lies? No less than 35 pages are dedicated to documenting the sources of all the liberal lies about conservatives propagated by the liberal mainstream media. Following her well-documented footnotes quickly vanquishes any argument of "he said", "she said". The compilation of liberal vindictiveness and sources together in one place alone is a gold mine to take to task your local liberal at any fireside debate. She exposes the liberal argument's tactics, not to challenge the ideas of a conservative, but to simply attack the conservative. By page 30 you get a documented idea of who does most of the real "hating" in American political circles. A poster writes that she is "UN American". I graciously beg to differ. In just six posts, her patriotism and intelligence have already been questioned. The point of the book is quickly proven. I find it interesting that even with the detail at which she documents her sources, liberals will still call it lies while the rambling of some liberal writer without a single shred of documented evidence will be ordained as divine truth.
Rating:  Summary: The Negative Reviews Prove the Whole Point Review: Just started reading the book, and have thus far found it to be absolutely brilliant writing. Logged on to Amazon.com to have a look at customer reviews, and what do I find but a bunch of name-calling attacks which trash the book without ever mentioning or refuting a single argument or piece of evidence offered in the book itself. I find this to be absolutely hilarious, since it is exactly this kind of name-calling whining, free of all logic and argument, that the book was written against. I can't believe the negative reviewers have read so much as the introduction, for they are proving the whole thesis, which is already quite well established with numerous examples and excellent rhetorical style by page 15. I'd be laughing harder if it weren't for the fact that my vote in our endangered republic is canceled by folks such as these.
Rating:  Summary: All in all, an enjoyable read. Review: I found the uniquely homogenous string of single star reviews to Ms. Coulter's book so unusual that I figured it must be an organized smear campaign. If her book was so frightening as to evoke such vile and mean spirited response, well then, there must be something in there that is so blindingly truthful that it scares small minded people. Well, I read it cover to cover and interestingly enough, there really wasn't anything that I found all that objectionable. I found myself disagreeing with a good bit of it while other parts made me laugh out loud. Perhaps not intentionally, there were sections that made me ponder my own paranoid illusions. I found conflict, humor, empathy and some of the zaniest postulates this side of the X-files. Bottom line is, wether or not I agreed with any of it, I enjoyed it, which is a whole lot more that I can say for a lot of highly rated, politically correct books that I've read lately.
Rating:  Summary: Revealing and well-documented Review: I thought I knew of most of the instances of liberal bias by the media in recent times, but, boy was I wrong. Coulter documents EVERYTHING as she paints a revealing picture of the true state of journalism in America today. If you doubted that the media are overwhelmingly slanted to the left, you'll be convinced it's true after reading this book. Coulter uses a very powerful weapon to expose the bias among the media ... she uses their own, irrefutable words!
