Despite a blizzard of negative press coverage, Ann Coulter’s new book "Godless: The Church of Liberalism” has surged all the way to No. 1 on Amazon.com’s list of bestsellers -- just two days after its official publication. [Editor’s Note: Get Ann’s book much cheaper than Amazon! Go Here Now]
On Wednesday Hillary Clinton lashed out at Coulter for what she called her "vicious, mean-spirited attack” on a group of outspoken 9/11 widows, whom the conservative television pundit described as "self-obsessed,” and said Coulter’s book should have been called "heartless.”
The media attack on Coulter began Tuesday with her first book interview on NBC’s Today Show. Host Matt Lauer claimed that Coulter had cruelly criticized several 9/11 widows.
But criticism from the establishment media hasn’t hurt sales of Coulter’s book at all.
In "Godless,” Coulter argues that in addition to being a political movement and philosophy, liberalism is a twisted religion whose deity is itself – and she details liberalism’s war on traditional religion and God. All of Coulter’s previous books have also been New York Times bestsellers: "How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must),” "Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right,” "Treason: Liberal Treachery from the Cold War to the War on Terrorism” and "High Crimes and Misdemeanors: The Case Against Bill Clinton.”
I cannot recall Hillary speaking out at all the disgusting, false accusations leveled against Ann. maybe I missed it.
"And maybe being courteous, being PC, will cause the loss of more lives of our American Military, the Iraqi Military, and the Iraqi citizens, and maybe American citizens.
Have you entertained your thoughts in this direction?"
Let me get this right.
Do I think telling some women that their dead husbands were probably contemplating divorce and that they should hurry up and pose for playboy will help our troops?
Ummmm.....no.
"Cesspool"? A fatuous overstatement"
I disagree.
"It's not a playground out there,"
It's getting to be that way.
"But it'd be nice if the liberals went and sat in the corner at your scolding the way you expect Ann to."
I dont' expect anyone to do anything. I am entitled to my opinion as are you.
I think it is funny that you expect me to give Ann a pass just because she is a conservative. You seem to think this makes her above reproach - she should be untouchable.
And that is the same attitude the iberals have towards these widows that is driving all of you crazy.
"At least it's an exercise in imagination to call the Fab Four, the Jersey Ghouls "harpies.""
Exercise in imagination?
Don't forget! She also snidely suggested these men could have been contemplating divorce. What is the purpose of such a dumb statement besides trying to cause the maximum amount of personal insult? It has nothing to do with the issues she claims to be so concerned about.
"I don't care who you worship.
Feel free to worship Satan like you usually do.
That's your problem, not mine.
Me? The only one I worship is God."
Oh please. Now you are just being outright silly.
Typical.
True.
When liberals fail to censure views they don't like outright they attempt to do it by discrediting, i.e. "Faux News" and "The F word network".
Ann is the best existing argument for cloning, as we need thousands more like her today teaching men how to act like men.
Yes, as am I. I bought the book and read it through in one sitting. If we are to survive as a nation, we need to keep delivering body blows to the mental illness that is liberalism. Keep it on the ropes and utterly destroy it. To do less is giving up. It is time to stop playing nice with those vermin. Ann gets it...
"Given their behavior since their husbands died, that is a strong possibility."
You have no clue - and neither does Ann. It adds nothing.
All it does is make Ann look like she is only interested in nasty personal insults.
"They already posed in slutty clothes for the cover of one of the New York magazines"
I get it. So the christian thing to do would be to tell them to take off all their clothes. Gotcha.
"You only whine when these Bush-hating harpies are called out for their rabid behavior"
This is a thread about Ann...so no - I haven't addressed other issues here. That would be hijacking.
You have no idea what opinions I have on other subjects.
You are whining that I don't have the same opinion as you.
Oh well.
"Only ones in the sewer are the 4 merry widows from Joisey, and they look very comfortable there too"
I wish you were right, but sadly Ann has decided to join them.
A Terrible Read,June 10,2006
Reviewer: aformerconservative (Ithica, NY USA)-See All My Reviews
after reading her book I am burning my republican party membership and joining the democrat party. she makes nothing but mean spirited attacks and is wrong on so points points its laughable. i've been posting reviews here under 100 different reviewer names the past 4 days, 24 hours a day using fake email addresses and assigning 1 star to try and make the rating as unfavorable as possible and da**it, those nasty conservatives keep coming on here and giving her book a favorable rating. I don't know how long I can keep this up with all those useless eaters in flyover country coming on here and giving her book a favorable rating I think I'll go postal if this keeps on too much longer free mumia Osama bin Laden is a great freedom fighter death to america Hillary is the greatest how dare all my sacred cows get skewered being paid a carton of cigarettes by the local democrat party office wasn't enough I felt a pop in my head arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!
"When a bunch of widows are partying a lot, not long after their husbands deaths, I say they are at least enjoying their freedom."
Wow. You are something.
So..how long is a woman supposed to wait after her husband's death before she is allowed to go out of the house?
What they don't understand, when they think they're trashing Ann, is the fact that there are so many reviews is revealing in and of itself. The more negative reviews, the better--people know the score, because they're still ordering.
"So..how long is a woman supposed to wait after her husband's death before she is allowed to go out of the house?"
Why don't you tell me?
You are an export on "sinking into the sewers" and all that, right?
Thank God for Ann.
This nation desperately needs her at this time in our history.
