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

Posted on 06/26/2003 10:20:38 PM PDT by 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.

One of the best books to recommend to read rather than Hillary's book of lies: Barbara Olson's "Hell to Pay: The Unfolding Story of Hillary Rodham Clinton".

ISBN #0895262746.

Yes but Mein Kompf is way out of line. The Communist Manafesto or anything by Chomsky would have been reasonable, but Mein Kompf?

Got this message:
"We only accept recommendations from customers who have placed orders at Amazon.com."

No Freeping way!

It would be a good point to make when referring to Barbara Olson's book. That her death and all of the 9/11 deaths occurred because the "two for one" partnership of the Clinton's was a failure in terms of national security.

May I recommend Ann's other books..."High crimes and Misdemeanors" and "Slander". Concentrate on the top right leaning books to knock out that Mein Kampf garbage. The LW loons have been busy. They hate Ann.

Hillary's book was the beneficiary of a massive, and frankly well-orchestrated pre-release publisher publicity campaign (barrage might be a better word) that was a text book example of "How to Hype a Book." It was brilliant and it did lead to massive sales in the first week.

Having congratulated the publisher on this brilliant job, let's move to week 2. It is an embarrassing nosedive, the massive printing order (part of the hype) and shrinking sales have led the book into remainder land in 2 weeks!

Huge library sales, school sales, union orders, etc. may bail out the publisher, but without the buying public it will take years, if it happens at all. Yeah I read the thing.(n.b. didn't buy it). It's crap. It's such bad crap that the liberal media elite could peddle it door-to-door for half-a-buck and still no one in their right mind would pay money for it.

BTW, Did I mention that politics aside even, Hillary's book was crap? Should have been entitled "Nancy Drew Runs Our Nation."

In regard to Ms. Coulter, she did a great job of research. As more and more comes out of the KGB files, embarassment and a violent left-wing reaction is to be expected. Me, I want to see two KGB Files, Bill CLinton's and Richard Holbrooke's... (not to mention Lee Harvey Oswalds REAL file.) Both of these guys, among others, spent a suspiciously long portion of their youths in the Soviet Union and satellites.

Uh, don't people around here encourage the same actions when a liberal book is the subject?
I had the same thought.

That maniacal socialists goblins and orcs take the time to submit entries on Amazon concerning Right-thinking literature is evidence only of how powerful such literature is in the free market.

Sorry, darling. I couldn't resist editing your post.

Actually Mein Kampf might not be all that bad. If you read Hitler's chapter on Propaganda, you can see he laid the blueprint for FDR's and Klinton's machinations.
