Do Ann Coulter a Favor

As many of you know, Ann Coulter has published a terrific work called "Treason" which, among other things, documents the complicitness of Democrats with Soviet espionage in America during the 1940's and 1950's. I bought it and I recommend it to everyone- it's an eye-opener which contradicts the liberal rendition of history that we've been handed down about Truman, Joe McCarthy, FDR, and Alger Hiss. The reason I write: many lowlife liberals are giving the book 1 star on Amazon.com to drive down its rating. The book is down to 3 stars out of 5 which is near the bottom for most books on Amazon.com. Conservatives need to support Ann, go to Amazon.com, and rate her book highly (5 stars) in order to counteract this liberal hit-job. The page to go to: Treason . On the left column, you can rate the book.

Sometimes you need to fight fire with fire.

Sheesh, the 1 star ratings aren't even worth the trouble. Here's a sample:

Yep, Coulter and others play the same game: they would prefer to play the part of Ebenezer Scrooge and believe any other consideration is worth nothing less than "Bah! Humbug". Can I suggest that Coulter spend less time writing columns and books, boosting her public profile by using self-aggrandising attack as some sort of platform for her "It's Everyone Else's Fault" beliefs, and less time playing the blame game... and perhaps a little more time contributing something positive to this world.

No commentary about the book, just some idiotic rambling.

[Woahhs]

When are we going to figure out listening to these people is counter-productive? For them, words are meaningless verbalizations that hinder their enemies. If they were interested in true discussion, they wouldn't use such loaded rhetoric.

Done!

[CyberAnt]

I'm reading it - it's a real eye-opener!

And .. it's no wonder the dems are screaming about it.

At last we have an icon that is dishing it back with enough of a popular following that the castratos on our side can't cripple her.

[CyberAnt]

Exactly!

>Sheesh, the 1 star ratings aren't even worth the trouble

I agree the reviews are unpersuasive. The problem though is that the "1 star" ratings add up and the overall rating for Ann's book is suffering. It hardly takes a minute to go to the site and give her a good rating to counteract this liberal sabotage.

[jagrmeister]

Don't listen to them. Don't argue with them. Just go to Ann's book page and rate the book 5 stars. It takes under a minute.

[jagrmeister]

>Done!

All right! Hopefully, we can get Ann's rating back up to 4 stars.

I love Ann as much as the next guy. I bought and read Treason. She just inked a deal for $3M. She doesn't need no steenkin' four stars. She doesn't need to be defended. She is capable of handling that on her own. She drives libs off the cliff like the lemmings that they are. Go Ann!

[XHogPilot]

Great idea, Jagmeister.

I believe you have come up with a method of freeping! Cruised by Hitlery's "Living History" to add an Amazon review, too. Hah!

[Woahhs]

Don't forget the "was this review helpful" button at the bottom of the detractors comments!

[putupon]

Please, there are the rules around here.

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

Sounds like Amazaon has a flawed system then. I think I'll give Hellery one star.

The thing about Ann's book vs Hill's is that I still haven't heard one fact based argument against Ann's book. The same can't be said of Hill's. Pretty good when you consider Ann was limited to working within facts, where Hill based her book on feelings and still got it wrong.

Saw this review and had to comment ( exerpt from Amazon );

"There is no factual analysis of a single piece of history. She picks up facts from history, omits the things she does not like and present them in mutilated form. In her book everything black and white."

It's called research you moron. Everyone author does it. It's up to the readers and historians to point out omissions and inaccuracies. So far no one had done this with "Treason". I'm still waiting. All they spit out are feelings based on years of being told "Senator McCarthy is bad, m'kay" without any real facts to back up their position.
How about the "major errors" in her book "Slander"? There were a couple of minor numerical errors in the footnotes and the libs acted like these goofs make the whole book invalid.

They are losing their minds over Coulter and a surgent conservatism. Check this out from the Idaho Mountain Express

Among other things, the writer dreams of "geomorphing" conservatives.

No commentary about the book, just some idiotic rambling.

I always thought that Amazon's screeners should reject reviews which do not exhibit any evidence that the reviewer has read the book. The same thing happened to Hillary's book, BTW. I would be tempted to give it one *, but what's the purpose, I didn't read it. Even some people apparently simpathetic to Hillary have given it * or **.

[CDHart]

Done! Will do the same for my husband -- he's reading it now.
