Your venomous attacks don't count for much, huh?

Fruitloop hardly goes as far as your savaging of my opinion. Really, if you want to influence people try being civil.

Pinkerton's abortion stance is not relevant to his opinion of Ann's book. In your world, does one have to be foaming at the mouth far right wing to avoid your caustic attitude?

Ann's done some great work in the past and I've been a vocal champion of hers. However, I'm beginning to see some inconsistencies with her though, and that sends up red flags. "Treason," as I've stated before, is way over the top to the detriment, in my opinion (which I believe we're still allowed to have in the United States), of the great points she does make, and will not advance her cause except among those who worship her.

You seem to have a problem with my opinion of the book. You aren't going to change my mind. Let it rest.

I don't "worship" Ann---I like her writing, and I agree with her points of view. I've read "Treason" cover-to-cover, think that her research and conclusions are impeccable, and have challenged you to rebut them. You have responded by calling me "naive," a "village idiot," and a "worshipper" of Ann Coulter---you even darkly suggest that I am trying to deprive you of the right to express your opinion. What I am trying to do, "if I'm still allowed to do that in the United States," is to challenge you to back up your opinion with substance. If you can't, you can't---you don't have to start crying.

You seem to have a problem with my opinion of the book. You aren't going to change my mind. Let it rest.

I have a problem with vituperative "conservatives" like you who attack a well-researched, well articulated book like Ann's on a topic like "McCarthyism" (which by the way is not the sole topic of her book, contrary to what so many people who haven't read her book seem to think) that is still relevant thanks to the War on Terror and which needs revisiting, with "opinions" they refuse to back up with anything but spleen and epithets.

I don't want to change your mind. I just want you to read Ann's new book. Fair enough?
