That's right. All they can do is keep trying to smear her with epithets and "insinuendo." Rolls right off of her though, and the books keep selling. The more they attack her, the more guys like buy her books.

I'm not disputing any of what you've said, but I do have two questions...
    1. Are you aware that the Howler has been caught in numerous lies, for example, misquoting Bush's SOTU address?

    2. Have you personally checked the accuracy of the Howler's claim, re the female insects?

Have you read Treason yet? If not, read it first. If you have read it, then you know the answer to your question.

Have you personally checked all of the original articles that the critics supposedly refute?

On the article on this thread Al Franken says that Ann Coulter's claim of Thomas Friedman being against racial profiling was wrong.

He said ""She's shameless" and "She deliberately misrepresents and distorts."

And the Associated Press published this claim as Gospel, apparently without even checking the Thomas Friedman article in question.

Now go back and read post 32.

The only fact(?) represented in the hackjob of an article was an outright lie spewed from AL FRANKEN. And based on this one lie the AP rights a hackjob filled with rhetoric and innuendo.

Don't you think that if there were such great refutations of the claims made by Ann Coulter the pristine Associated Press would have picked up it and stead of playing to a downright lie by AL FRANKEN?

And you said yourself, she makes the claim that all liberals in the last 50 years are guilty of treason. Dont you think it is ironic that the liberals are nitpicking over technicalities mentioned offhandedly in her book?

does anybody know what page in Ann Coulter's Treason that she says Evan Thomas is Norman Thomas's son and not his grandson?

Good post.

What is also interesting is how the AP has waited until now to attack the book and Coulter personally.

They have been viciously attacking Bush as of late, and now they are going after others who don't tow the leftist line. The media is fascist.

The timing and content clearly are designed to smear her and lessen the impact of her TV appearances. Does anyone actually think that they all of a sudden (after a month+) have decided to release this? If what it said were true, they would have released this right after she released the book, to hurt sales.

I found it interesting that franken claims he hasn't read Ann's book, but found the friedman quote browsing through it. He, (or the author of this article) then goes on to say that if Ann had "read" the friedman piece, she would understand it differently. Maybe if franken would read...

Seizing quite the opposite position, her book lionizes the 1950s Wisconsin senator for his holy war against Communist spies in the United States, a crusade she argues was done in by the soft-on-commies Democratic Party, which has since compounded the outrage by demonizing McCarthy with its "hegemonic control of the dissemination of information and historical fact," she says between bites of a turkey club.

Holy War???

And I couldn't help notice that this writer criticizes and comments on everything but what Anne wrote in her book

If Ann Coulter were lying in a bikini, would she have so many critics?

She's the vampire slayer for the right. With beauty and brains she delimbs the beastbred hags that rut and hobble from the sewers of the left. (Picture any of the clinton coven).

I was in a Sams a couple weeks back. In the book section, I saw Ann's book placed way before Hitlery's. There was only one row of Hillary's book. Rudy G's book was next to it, and so I took a copy of Rudy G's book and placed it in front of Lying History. Immediately, a man behind me said 'that's the best thing I've seen all day,' and then shook my hand. Made me feel good.

And as she kept saying in Treason - did the State Department have Soviet spies?

Is it not telling that people are still talking about Coulter's book but no one mentions Hitlery's Lying History?

All the claims of those who find fault with the book can simply be dismissed by actually OPENING THE BOOK and RESEARCHING IT!!

Excellent work!

"Slander" would be a great book even without Miss Coulter's humor thanks to its accuracy and the terrific clarity with which it brings together the pattern of unAmerican behavior displayed by Democrats. It just wouldn't be as fun.

Does anybody here honestly believe that all Democrats are traitors and Saddam loving America haters who want us to lose the war on terror and live under the rule of Islamic fundamentalists?

Someone once suggested that you should judge a tree by its fruits.

Her premise just silly.

You haven't read the book have you?
