I'm disaffected? And you ASSUme I don't have/read her other books? And then you go on about being unfair? GET your oil checked.
Ad hominem criticisms of personal appearance as well as the worship of personal appearance also belong to the left, as highlighted by the witticism to which this discussion has responded.
Note - you posting about worship is laughable after reading your posts about Ann.
Ann sells conservatism because, by her own words, "Conservatism sells". She does NOT walk the talk. It has NOTHING to do with being perfect but honest.
It's never a good idea to align oneself so totally with any other human being that they cannot make a mistake without one's coming unglued. The depth of your bitterness indicates to me that you are the one who had been idolizing her, and are now disillusioned.
I have been inspired by her ever since Treason and have been consistently informed and entertained by much of her work. I give her credit where credit is due, and like many, stand in hopes that she will rethink some of her social liberalism. But I do not worship her and never have.
