The TRUTH hurts!

[NativeNewYorker]

I read Treason from cover to cover this week. It rocks. Period.

The Democrats have every reason to be scared sh!tless of a telegenic babe who calls a spade a spade.

[Dr Warmoose]

You people all notice that he levels unsubstantiated charges against her that the Ann Coulter who routinely verbally body slams any liberal through logic, reasoning and cutting wit, when composing her book uncharacteristically becomes "irrational".

Nothing but platitudes and whining. "Nothing" also describes the contents of their case against her.

[jimtorr]

.......quickly became notorious for its errors and distortions of the facts, which we detailed in our examination of the book.

As I recall, SpinCity's review of "Slander" was notorious for its errors and distortions of facts (commonly called lies). Brendan is at it again with "Treason".

Spin-Whatever is certainly aptly named.

[Lion Den Dan]

All of the foot note material is very painful.

[cubreporter]

If the writer and the dems can't stand the heat let them get the heck out of the kitchen!!!!

[Lancey Howard]

These college Democrats crack me up.
You can almost see this one crying in anger like a six year-old as he tries to compose his little "review" of Ann's thoroughly documented book.

Barf alert??

Truth hurts
Truth scars
Truth wounds and mars
Any heart not tough
Or strong enough
Take a lot of pain
Take a lot of pain
Truth is like a cloud
And it holds a lot of rain
Truth hurts
Oooh, truth hurts.

You're wrong, I know
Baby, what's so
I know a thing or two
Ooo honey, I learned from you
I really learned a lot
I really learned a lot
Truth is like a stove
It burns you when it's hot
Truth hurts, (ooooo), truth hurts

Ah Annie
That's my girl!!!

[Tamzee]

Typical slam of a conservative political argument... they can't deny the facts so they resort to name-calling and unsubstantiated accusations against the author.

It was entirely to be expected :-)

[ChadGore]

Wow, Ann really hit a never. She must have struck the truth.

[Bubba_Leroy]

Gee, I wonder what as the liberals so mad? Could it be ...

I'm tempted to Fisk this silly spinsanity screed, but the effort would be wasted.

He seems to be bent on proving Ann's point.

[Plutarch]

Throughout the book, she attributes outside book reviews, magazine profiles and op-eds to media outlets as if they were staff-written news reports, feeding the perception of bias on the part of these institutions. These include a New York Times Week in Review article by historian Richard Gid Powers cited as "According to the Times..." (p. 6);

Oh, this example just shatters Ann's credibility. We all know that the NYT Week in Review has a wide variety of opinion from right to left, and this citation just happened to be from a left wing historian.

The other examples of "factual errors" the writer cites are like this. Mainly technical errors that do not detract from the essential truth that Ann conveys.

[Dacus943]

"Screed: With Treason, Ann Coulter once again defines a new low in America's political debate"

So the unvarnished TRUTH is now deemed a new low in America's political debate.

[JennysCool]

For years, she has infused her syndicated columns with cheap shots and asides directed at targets like President Bill Clinton, the American Civil Liberties Union and Hustler publisher Larry Flynt

That the author sees this as a bad thing is all you need to know about him.

At times, Coulter portrays liberals and the left as engaged in a grand conspiracy to destroy the United States:
While undermining victory in the Cold War, liberals dedicated themselves to mainstreaming Communist ideals at home... Betraying the manifest national defense objectives of the country is only part of the left's treasonous scheme. They aim to destroy America from the inside with their relentless attacks on morality and the truth. (p. 289)

All true, so ... his point is???

[hosepipe]

He(Brendan Nyhan) gets, it.
The most serious challege to the democrat socialist machine since I've been an adult (that I know of).. Useing the word irrational of this book telegraphs dis-information because the book is supported in ever detail by solid data... One of the first many efforts to discredit it I believe.. The time is so right for this book... The democratic party has been totally co-opted and seemingly the co-opting of the republican party is well advanced... I think soon the biggest threat to the credibilty of this book will be from so-called conservatives.. since democrats have none.

The book is so well written it could be the most important and timely political book in the last 20 years because it goes for the bedrock issues of what is mainly wrong with America. Just saying "liberal" or "Socialist" are too weak because after all Communism "IS" Socialism and is where all Socialism is heading in the end.

I think this book is so important because of what it DON'T say but implies. No doubt in my mind that is the intent of the book, and it will work. Ann Coulter merely inseminated the reader with a seed.... and a fetus is growing.. Because if this book is true what have the american communists been doing since the House Commitee on Un-American Activitys CLOSED...

A very pregnant question, not asked directly, but implied..

Unbelievable. I went to Waldenbooks at the mall and Ann's book was in the entryway with #2 prominately displayed in front of 2 rows and 1 row of hitlery's book with #3. B&N didn't have any Treason's displayed but said they were just sold out. They would take my name and hold a copy yada, yada, yada. They did have many Lying History's laying around.
