Help Me Fight The "Slandering" of Ann Coulter's New Book, "Treason" on Amazon

Today | Paul Klenk

[paulklenk]

As many of you know, Ann Coulter's new book "Treason" has jumped to number 2 on Amazon's Best Seller list.

However, those who hate Coulter and what she stands for are attacking her book, by using the "recommendations" feature at Amazon. "Mein Kampf" and "Big Lies: Right Wing Propaganda" are the only two choices being offered as recommendations. Of course, this is a nasty bit of slander against Ann.

Here is a link to Treason's page at Amazon.

There are two things you can do to help quash this effort:

1. Recommend another book. If we all start off by recommending the same book, it has a good chance of showing up. Feel free to recommend your own, too, but don't fail to recommend OUR choice: USE THE FOLLOWING ISBN NUMBER to make sure we are recommending the same item: 1400046610, which is Ann's book Slander. If you can come up with a better title, post the title and the ISBN number here so the rest of us can follow suit.

2. Let Amazon know that the other recommedations are inappropriate. Under the book recommendations, there is a link which says "Let us know if any of these recommendations are inappropriate." Follow that link and click "no" next the appropriate title, starting with "Mein Kampf."

Freep away in mass quantities, folks, and make me proud. You may run into some technical difficulties along the way. If you do, report back here and let's see if we can't share the solutions as well.

Those pics speak the truth and the liberall/leftisist/socialists/marxists are being burned by it.

Amen ! They sure do, and they sure are !!

When Hillary's book was first listed on Amazon (pre-publication sales), some wise-guys recommended some very funny additions to it. "Getting in Touch With Your Inner B!tch" was one hilarious suggestion. These Freeps lasted on Amazon for about two days, and then the powers that be at Amazon deleted the recommendations. "Inappropriate," is how they justified it.

I'd expect them to clean up the doo-doo left by the Left on Ann's book site, for the same reason.

did everyone notice that Amazon has reduced the price of Hitlery's fiction?

"Living His Story -- My Life as a Doormat" must be taking up too much shelf space at Amazon.

[My2Cents]

I basicly stated that Ann Coulter documented events during the Clinton years, and her book should be challenged on the merits rather than slandering her.

Hey! There's an idea! Maybe Ann should write a book on how the Left slanders conservatives!!...Oh, wait....Nevermind.

Well, all of the wise acres denouncing her on Amazon only proves the point in her previous book.

"Inappropriate," is how they justified it.

No, actually, when those comments appeared, Hillary's book had not yet been published. Amazon, justifiably, stated that it was removing the comments because no one could reasonably be expected to comment on a book they hadn't read. What they actually did, to their credit, was to completely remove the "Recommendations" section altogether, then put it back up for public submissions once the book was in stores.

Those morons have been doing it for 3 days. She needs help. Give some REAL recommendations in addition with Treason...something like "Slander", "Useful Idiots", or "The New Thought Police"

[lowbridge]

I note wit hsome satisfaction that Coulter's book is sending the Left ballistic. Good - let them be revealed for who and what they are.

One such reviewer from the left gives the book a one star rating, but a good review, then signs his/her name as "Leni Riefenstahl" (infectedpickle from Tempe, AZ United States June 24, 2003 review) So, the book review section needs a good dose of freeping as well.

I don't think that I saw anyone encourage fake reviews of Hillary's book. Frankly I don't think that this behavior hurts at all, on the contrary it probably boosts sales.
Posters should simply point out that it she is upsetting the left enough to make them attack her book, that the truth hurts and the Democrats have just proved the point of the book.

Heh heh heh...

Freeped

[My2Cents]

They hate Ann.

With good reason. In a fair fight, she kills them; takes no prisoners. She's rhetorical scorced-earth. She's a national treasure.

[My2Cents]

Good comment.

[HanneyBean]

Just went and did it, and for good measure I went to Shrillery's book and gave a recommendation of Robert Patterson's book, Dereliction of Duty (#0895261405).
Things like this don't really do much, but they ARE fun!

[JLAGRAYFOX]

Don't get all frazzeled up by the negative comments and Mein Kempf rhetoric. This is a liberal "Al Franken" tactic. You guys and gals don't get it. The Democrat, liberal, left-wing folks have never had to contend with anything like the onslaught of conservative books that have been so highly successful. Just think for a moment. Hillary Clinton has had hours of TV prime time build up and fluff interviews to push her book and little Ann Coulter is beating the pants off her. Sid Blumenthal's book, "The Clinton Wars is now #155 on the Amazon.com best seller list. Eric Alterman's book about the right wing media is currently #886 on Amazon.com. These liberals are toast and, fear not, Hillary Clinton will soon be following them as her book flushes down the toilet. We can win! Just go out and get Ann's book today, and we won't have to deal with the vermin traitors much longer. Ann's victory will only be symbolic, but it will send a message the whole country will hear. Plus, it is truly a book every American should read!

I know somebody who walks into bookstores, goes over to the Hillarious! book mountain and "accidentally" sneezes on it...

[paulklenk]

Good words -- thanks for posting them.

[Rummyfan]

Woo Hoo! If it hits 50% discount it's over!

[StayAt HomeMother]

It is working. The Amazon site now lists books Ann's readers are truly likely to read:

"Customers who bought this book also bought:
* Useful Idiots: How Liberals Got It Wrong in the Cold War and Still Blame America First by Mona Charen by Ann Coulter
* Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right
* Let Freedom Ring: Winning the War of Liberty over Liberalism by Sean Hannity
* Dereliction of Duty: The Eyewitness Account of How Bill Clinton Endangered America's Long-Term National Security by Robert Patterson
* The Savage Nation: Saving America from the Liberal Assault on Our Borders, Language and Culture by Michael Savage"

[StayAt HomeMother]

(Yes, somehow my column slipped a line. "by Ann Coulter" should be after the second book, not the first.)
