1) Paperback Book Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right by Three Rivers Press. If you´re a conservative looking for a book to reinforce your predefined views of liberalism, this book is for you. If you´re looking for a little more substance, though, move along.¤

2) Paperback Book Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right by Three Rivers Press. This has got to be one of the worst books I´ve ever read. Ann Coulter might be a fairly intelligent woman, but her writing would never have you know it, as she unfortunately takes the tone of a conservative Michael Moore. On nearly every page of this ironically-titled book, Coulter does exactly what she accuses the Left of doing: she resorts to name-calling and joke cracking, she manipulates information, tells half-truths, and constantly makes ridiculous generalizations, avoiding the hard work of actually forming sound, convincing arguments. Of course all of her wonderful "references" are tucked away in endnotes rather than footnotes so that all of you fact-checkers are made to flip all the way to the back of the book and hunt down each source every time she seeks to give weight to one of her ridiculous claims. This book might be good for a [conservative] laugh, but other than that, it really cannot be taken seriously, as Coulter does her best to stoop to the exact same level of those "liars" about which she writes. The book would be best put to use in an introductory logic class in college, where students will be able to find a treasure trove of fallacies committed in Coulter´s "arguments."¤

3) Paperback Book Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right by Three Rivers Press. I really enjoyed this book. Ann Coulter really knows her stuff and I was impressed by all of the facts she presented in each of her arguments. She also writes with a sense of humor.¤

That reported in the media erroneously can sometimes be classified as libel. Lies repeated at cocktail parties, even by those in the media, merit the classification of slander.

Those struggling to discover what is cropping up on the political horizon need only read Ms. Coulter´s excellent book.

Published in 2002, this work proves two realities. How truth never changes, and how seldom politics ever does.

Anyone wondering at the blackout of once rising star Mike Huckabee can do the math from these pages. The reader may also deduce how Huckabee, with no national coverage in the months following his victory, rarely even a mention of his name, still won 35 percent of the vote in Texas. Notably the media commented not at all.

Though Coulter´s review of American politics does not predict three Democrats, one in Republican mantle, would be in the presidential race at this time, yet her book points to this outcome. In fact, the implication of her work begs the question why more pastors don´t disavow congregants.


Ms. Coulter´s greatest contribution in this work is her prophetic pronouncement that the Internet would become the final bastion of free speech. Good thing Gore invented it. Though not for him, of course.

5) Paperback Book Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right by Three Rivers Press. I thought that I knew Miss Coulter from her television/radio appearances coupled with her columns. However, I was wrong. Her book is thoughtful and insightful. The rhetoric is far above her columns and while the bombs are there, she adds supporting data. Considering it was written in the last election cycle, it is very revealing in the Hilliary/Obama/McCain fiasco. I suspect that most of her detractors haven´t read book because they focus on the minutae not the substance. It is a shame because she makes a very strong case about the bias in the MSM.¤

“[Ann Coulter] is never in doubt. And that, along with her bright writing, sense of irony and outrage, and her relish at finally hitting back at political opponents (especially in the media) is what makes Slander such refreshing and provocative reading.”
—Los Angeles Times

“[Ann Coulter] is a fluent polemicist with a gift for Menckenesque invective . . . and she can harness such language to subtle, syllogistic argument.”
—Washington Post Book World

“The most popular nonfiction book in America.”—New York Times

“The real value of Slander . . . is not in the jokes or devastating exposés of liberal politicians and their allies, but the serious and scholarly study of just how entrenched the media prejudice is against anyone whose politics are even faintly conservative.”
—New York Sun

“Written with a great deal of passion . . . the real source of its strength—and its usefulness—was its painstaking marshalling of evidence . . . More important than [High Crimes and Misdemeanors] because it addresses a much broader issue, and one of lasting significance.”—National Review¤

7) Paperback Book Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right by Three Rivers Press. "Liberals have been wrong about everything in the last half century," writes conservative pundit Ann Coulter, author of the bestselling anti-Clinton tome High Crimes and Misdemeanors. They´ve been especially wrong about Republicans, she writes. The bulk of Slander, in fact, is a well-documented brief dedicated to the proposition that most of the media despises anybody whose political opinions lie an inch to the right of the New York Times editorial page. This is hardly an original observation, though few have presented it with such verve. Coulter is the shock-jock of right-wing political commentary, able to dash off page after page of over-the-top but hilarious one-liners: "Liberals dispute slight reductions in the marginal tax rates as if they are trying to prevent Charles Manson from slaughtering baby seals." There´s a certain amount of irony about an author who says "liberals prefer invective to engagement" also declaring, "The good part of being a Democrat is that you can commit crimes, sell out your base, bomb foreigners, and rape women, and the Democratic faithful will still think you´re the greatest." But then carefully measured criticism never has been Coulter´s shtick--or her appeal. Fans of Rush Limbaugh and admirers of Bernard Goldberg´s Bias won´t want to miss Slander. --John Miller¤
