Summary: As a liberal/progressive...THANK YOU ANN!!!
Review: Please Ann, keep up the good work. We haven't had such a good spokesperson for true conservative values since Newt! As a progressive liberal, I thank you for making such a fool of yourself and conservative ideas. I hope everyone in America reads this book and can see how conservatives REALLY think (in the TRUE "No Spin Zone").

Summary: ...
Review: The game of personal destrction never ends. This is a dusturbing book by the female version of Rush Limbaugh or Bill O'Reilly. The antics of Ann Coulter have been told in David Brocks outstanding book. Save the money for the book and political thought by following the money in the right wing world. As John Mellencamp said of Ronald Reagan'"He ain't gonna help no poor men, he ain't gonna help no children. Thank God he went back to California". Ann and her cronies fit those lines to perfection, and hopefully the game of personal destruction will end soon.

Summary: You Might Want to Take the Time to Read This
Review: I can't remember which author said it or the actual saying, but the gist was, the mark of a truly intelligent person is the ability to be able to hold two opposing views within the mind and accept the reality of both. I don't consider myself an extreme conservatist or liberal, I lie somewhere in the middle, as do most Americans, I think. What Ms. Coulter offers the reader in "Slander . . ." bears some consideration. A book that might cause you to look beyond your own perceptions.

Summary: Liberals supplied the rope, Ann just tied the knot
Review: I had to laugh while reading though a bunch of the snarky one star reviews--after reading this book, it was simple to recognize the various liberal "debating tactics" Ann shreds in Slander. No wonder the libs are foaming mad--she backs up everything with actual footnoted quotes, and provides just enough shrewd analysis to tie it all together. Beautiful! This book is much better than her columns, since she has lots of room to build her arguments and back them up with cold, hard facts, so she doesn't resort to her trademark zingers as often. Still, the claws come out a few times, but that's understandable. When you read some of the vicious quotes from the liberal media, you find yourself wanting to do a little butt-kicking yourself.
If you're a centrist or a libertarian, do yourself a favor and read this book, especially the chapter on the mythical "religious right." You may find you have more in common with those "mean old conservatives" than the "nice, sweet liberals."
As for hard-core liberals...read the book if you like, but make sure you're in good health or your heart won't be able to take it.

Summary: Ann Coulter Makes Her Case . . .
Review: Coulter makes a strong case that liberals have long given up legitimate debate in favor of name-calling and demonization. At the same time, her return fire is so hot she makes a case for herself as the most gifted polemicist of the last decade. Not even William F. Buckley at his most withering generated the kind of heat Coulter does. It's clear that this book is the glove that slaps a face with every intention of starting a fight. As a conservative frustrated by being constantly compared to Nazi's and racists for opposing things like high taxes, I found myself hoping someone would accept her challenge.The only possible criticism of the book is that Ann stoops the level of her opponents on several occasions by calling them dumb. In fairness to her, she provides the evidence for her charge more often than not!

Summary: A SPOTLIGHT THROWN ON PATHOLOGICAL LIBERAL THINKING
Review: As a retired psychotherapist I had to read "Slander" myself because it was obviously hitting a nerve in some reviewers. I discovered that there is no in-between on Ann Coulter's book; you will either love it or hate it. I loved its crystal-clear, well-documentated examples of pervasive liberal fuzzy thinking. It hits liberals in their weak spot by revealing their flawed logic and utter lack of objectivity. Coulter illustrates with hilarious wit how liberals consider intellectualism to be their private domain, and how they squeal loudly when their intelligence is attacked with documented examples. Their only defense in such instances is to mount personal attacks on the author, in this case, Ann Coulter, and start name-calling. I have enjoyed the one and two star reviews on "Slander" almost as much as I enjoyed the book itself. I expect the percentage ratio of "help" versus "no-help" responses to this review to further reflect the liberal bias of some of the readers. What fun to twist their tails..!! BUY AND READ THIS BOOK...!! Al Thompson, Brady, Texas

Summary: intellectual dishonesty or infantile subjection to Rushbo?
Review: Coulter engages in the name-calling, fabrications, and character assassination that she maintains is the exclusive realm of liberals. She, like Limbaugh, et al, are bringing political analysis to a new low, trying to appeal to the lowest denominator of our nature. She is the radical republican attack puppy, nipping away and hoping something will hurt, wishing it will sell. Her statement that "an attack on America by fanatical Muslims had finally provided liberals with a religion they could respect" is just one example of the ridiculous and outrageous statments that make up this book. On an emotional level it may appeal to some people, but this book is a shallow analysis, and I am certain is being read for it's entertainment or "Wow!" factor. That's what I got out of it.

Summary: An excellent book
Review: This book was the best [money] I have spent in a long time! Coulter's "Slander" and Goldberg's "Bias" is a must-read for anyone wanting to take an serious look at the leftwing bias in major media networks. It warms my heart to see that Coulter's book is now Nr. 1 in the nation. Has a leftwing columnist ever been number one? No. Leftists and liberals do not control the medium of the mind and logic.
There is hope for our great Republic yet!

Summary: Thanks a lot Ann, I hope it was worth it! $
Review: Ann Coulter is an embarrassment to the right. She uses every lowdown slimy trick in the liberal book to sell hers. She's absolutely no better than they are and this book clearly shows that. I thought she might have something new to add to political awareness or that she might have a fresh perspective on politics in general, NOT! This book is just a rehash of the same old ... spun on television ever night of the week. Republicans and conservatives do not need to sink as low as Ann Coulter goes in this book, which is written in textbook liberal bleeding heart fashion. It's a ... sham that this self proclaimed representative of the right has chosen to drag the image of conservatism down to the depths of liberal ... throwing to put a few bucks in her purse. Maybe the liberals can somehow find a way to sue her for copyright infringement.

Summary: What's the point?
Review: I saw Coutler once on Politically Incorrect and thought she was funny. So I bought this book. It's a rip-off. Why read a whole book you can sum up in one sentence? Coutler's point is that the media is liberal, and liberals are evil. If you already believe this, there's no reason to read it. If you don't, this book won't convince you (Coutler's over-the-top style
and out-of-context "evidence" makes sure of that). "Slander" is a waste of time for the same reason as Michael Moore's "Stupid White Men". Both books discourage actual thinking, and exist only to reinforce the presumed bias of the reader. And both hide behind shock-radio hyperbole and name calling to obscure the fact that nothing of substance is being offered. If you find yourself mouthing "ditto" while listening to Rush Limbaugh, you might like this book. Otherwise, don't bother. You won't learn anything.
