Summary: Great book and should be read by all!!
Review: Next to Mike Savage's The Savage Nation and her own book, Treason, Ann Coulter's Slander is a great read. In the book, she indicates how the left is desparately trying to steal America by slandering their own country as well as those who are trying to protect it. A must read for government officials and anyone else who cares about the United States.

Summary: Quite a negative, hysterical back lash for no good reason
Review: Quite unsurprisingly of the negative responses to Ms. Coulter's book are an accompanying and complete lack of comprehension of the difference between "feelings" and "facts". This book, as well as being entertaining, is scholarly and carefully researched. I would recommend it, highly, to anyone that claims to have a thinking and open mind. Regarding the negative criticism, all that has been demonstrated are the usual vitriolic polemics aimed at someone who holds views opposed to their own; clearly, okay for liberals to stake a claim to the higher, moral ground but, how dare anyone else try it? Not just typical but pathetically so. No facts to counter with, just the same, tired, "Liar, liar, pants on fire" finger pointing tactics that have worked so well and so long for the left. Where is that vaunted "open mindedness and fairness to all" posture when you really need it most? Just a posture, I guess.Great material and thought provoking if anyone out there has but the eyes to see. And this opinion from a registered Democrat who feels as if the left has hoodwinked her.

Summary: Lies and fantasies make for great entertainment, but...
Review: There are so many factual errors and distortions in this book, all to entertain the neoconservative audience. One can only assume that the author lives in a fantasy world in which anyone who does not think like she does is by definition evil and thus deserving of the worst kind of verbal abuse. There's a psychological term for this kind of pathological black/white thinking, wish I could remember what it is. But it is definitely a pathology (that means mental illness for those who don't like multi-syllable words). This sort of weak-minded, immature entertainment is only a symptom of why neoconservative American politics cannot be take seriously. A shameful, pathetic replacement for what was once the honorable tradition of conservative American politics.

Summary: trash
Review: As many have said, the title of the book tells you what it is. Anne Coulter is an enigma, like most women who feel as she does about feminism. (That is to say, she buys the BS about women being enigmas). It's hard to guess what she thinks of all this: Is she so insane as to believe she's right? Is she laughing up her sleeves at all the people rallying behind her? Is she just making her living like everyone else, and she happens to do it by churning out political horsepoop? Or is she a fictional entity created by The Man to oppress us all? Really, one is as likely as the other, isn't it?

Summary: It's not good enough to serve as a coaster
Review: "The real value of Slander . . . is not in the jokes or devastating exposés of liberal politicians and their allies, but the serious and scholarly study of just how entrenched the media prejudice is against anyone whose politics are even faintly conservative."
-New York Sun The above quote has to be a joke. It has to be, because it's absolutely a lie. So is most of the book. I didn't see one single fact in this book. It was all lies. Ann Coulter is a liar, and judging from this book, may well be mentally ill. She manipulates her audience and obviously thinks her readers are stupid. The "facts" she uses are misquotes at the very least. Her "research" is lazy, if you want to be kind, or downright malicious if you want to be honest. I will never read another word she says. It's frightening that anyone would read what she has to say and believe it.

Summary: Extreme ignorance
Review: Coulter is a very interesting person. She has written a book based on her opinions and passes them off as truth. This book is very painful to read because the reader is trying to understand politics from a woman who did not see the message or truth in Bowling for Columbine. She, instead refers to Michael Moore not as a filmmaker or author but as " college dropout Michael Moore ....ect... This is how she refers to him and to many other people in her novel. She has no respect for others and can't even think abstractly, which is sad considering her education and current employment. She needs to stop this kind of hatred and realize that ignorance will turn off any curious reader with a brain.

Summary: Extreme Conservative
Review: Ann Coulter is one of the most extreme conservatives I've ever read. The title makes it clear: what the book focuses on is how liberals have pretty much destroyed the greatest country in the world. She's almost saying that Liberals' only purpose is to complain a lot and screw up politics. Just read the first few pages; she writes a pretty accurate thesis to the book. She seems to just blow everything out of proportion--way out of proportion. It seems to be just an outburst of frustration she has felt toward Liberals for a long time. This book is an angry attack on what she calls "the liberal cult." She's almost giving a bad name to conservatives, though she poses them as perfect beings. If this is your first book by a conservative, you might want to consider reading something a little milder first.

Summary: Ann Coulter is my new hero!
Review: I've watched Ann Coulter for years on the various talk shows she frequents, and was encouraged to read this book by a friend. I've not historically read a lot of books like this, though I try to stay in touch with current events as much as possible. Having just finished the book, I can happily report that Ann's book is not only one of the most enjoyable reads I've had in a long time (her sarcastic wit had me laughing out loud more than once), but I learned a great deal more about how the liberal media is currently seeking to control all flow of information, and to discredit anyone who disagrees with them. Ms. Coulter is a lawyer by training, and she presents a case that would easily stand up in a court of law. As a single example, her arguments about how Phyllis Schlafly was ignored for her single-handed defeat of the Equal Rights Amendment while Glorida Steinem was glorified because she managed to sleep with a guy so he'd bail her magazine out is just one of the scenarios in which Ms. Coulter shines the light of truth on the hypocrisy in the media today. This book builds some very compelling arguments, and provides tremendous supporting documentation to her claims. And it's painfully obvious after reading this book that the efforts to discredit conservatives in America are no accident (in fact, it's exactly the opposite - a deliberate attack that seeks to destroy opposition to liberal thought). This book is just the sort of ammunition that conservatives need to be able to craft reasonable arguments when liberals start their name-calling and try to degrade everything said by conservatives. And if you don't think that liberals use name calling, PLEASE read this book. It's liberally (no pun intended) sprinkled with references from national magazine and newspapers that prove this to be the case. The fact, as Ms. Coulter points out, since the liberal media has been so accustomed to having no opposition to their belief system, they are less equipped to present reasonable arguments. Conservatives, on the other hand, have been forced to do just that in order to survive. They can't resort to simple name-calling like the liberal media seems to love to do. There is no question...liberalism is at war with conservatism in America. This is because conservatism is threatening the elitist positions that liberals have been able to hold onto for the past several decades. They don't like it, and they're out to destroy anyone who they view as a threat. Read this book. If you're honest, you'll agree that this is the case. If you're one of the liberal elite that Ms. Coulter describes, then maybe you won't. After all, it takes honesty and courage to confront the truth. Ms. Coulter does that admirably in this book. I highly recommend that all of us who are interested in the survival of our country do the same.

Summary: Her Best Book.
Review: Slander lacks all the gratuitous venom of Treason. It is a stronger work as it attacks the liberal pundits and media that the author is extremely familiar with. It's also a very funny read. My favorite line in Slander is when she juxtaposes the male attitude towards work (it's a job) with the female one (it's a career). No more truer works have ever been spoken. You'll finish it in a day and be better off for it.
Rating:
Summary: Outstanding
Review: Liberals will rate this book 1 star because they don't want you to read the truth contained inside. Enjoy this masterful book.
