I agree. Ann does nothing more than preach to the converted. How does that help the conservative cause? We jump all over Dems who say stupid things, and then she makes ridiculous statements like women shouldn't have the right to vote. I've never met a single person who has been persuaded by anything she's said. All you get is the "woof woof woof" from those who already agree with her positions. Big deal.

To say that "Treason" targets only conservatives is incorrect. Hate to break it to you, but books that target conservatives rarely make it into the top ten nationwide. "Treason" more likely targets moderates first, then conservatives. From what I've read on FR, many conservatives need to read "Treason" just to cleanse the brainwashing of public education and too much network news from their minds.

"We jump all over Dems who say stupid things, and then she makes ridiculous statements like women shouldn't have the right to vote."

Actually we jump all over Dems for taking comments out of context and using them to critize others. Are you going to tell us that she made this comment in seriousness, or do you think she was kidding to make a point? Remember now, this is Ann we are talking about. :)

"I've never met a single person who has been persuaded by anything she's said. All you get is the "woof woof woof" from those who already agree with her positions. Big deal."

You must live in a rather small world. And you would have to have a rather small mind to think that if you have not experienced it, it hasn't happened. Perhaps it's just the people you choose to mingle with.

Even if she only "preaches to the converted" -- and I strongly disagree with you on that -- even that alone would "help the conservative cause" by providing us with tons of factual ammunition to use when *we* "preach to the unconverted".

Or are you going to try to tell me that you already knew every single bit of information and example and quote from all three of her books before you read them?
