    "Brilliant sarcasm deflates foolish pomposity"

    Ann Coulter's mercilessly evocative designation of Katie Couric as "the Eva Braun of morning television" was as apt a thumbnail epitaph as Couric is likely to inspire. Couric should have feigned cheerful outrage at her new avatar, while taking every back-handed measure to ensure that it stuck, on the principle that it is better to be famous for having an offensively funny nickname than not to be famous. An appropriate response might have been for Couric to smilingly compliment Coulter's full-throated and biting sarcasm, thus further chilling the cycle of obscurely nasty innuendo which, we all know, is best served cold. Coulter's last chapter has her delivering a witheringly hilarious rapid-fire standup comedy routine, attacking all of her adversaries, ranging from simple-minded liberals to jealously less-successful conservative pundits, who turn out to be her main opposition. Coulter's political drone strikes are launched with all of their usual laser-guided precision, but, in this book, her collateral humor seems to be an order of magnitude more devastating. In other words, I laughed out loud for hours listening to this audiobook. My highest recommendation.

    "Opposing voice"
    Any additional comments?

    I like to hear political views that are not mine. However, Ann Coulter is not so much giving arguments for her position as she is being witty and selling herself. Her favorite line is: I rest my case.
    And, I'm afraid I don't like her voice.
    So, despite the sometime hilarious parts, not my cup of tea.

    "Coulter at her goodest-- but not her greatest"

    Very good work by Ann. She is at her goodest but not her best. Definitely worth you money, and perhaps a bit more palletable for the more moderate reader out there.

    Still plenty to laugh at for her core audience-- conservatives. I only hope democrats don't actually read this, we don't want them to actually figure out how to not look so stupid do we. ;)

    "Where's the good stuff..."

    I am typically a big Ann Coulter fan because I think she's stupid...kind of like a Right Wing Jon Stewart. She says some of the silly things most normal people think in the back of their heads but the brain filters out as nonsensical ravings of a lunatic mind. I didn't like this book because it's a bunch of out-takes. They aren't even full articles, just paragraphs. As usual, it's off the wall silly, but quite disjointed. If you have read her articles or other books there is absolutely nothing new here. I'd give it a pass due to lack of originality...

    "sadly, no new vitriol"

    This book, by Coulter's own admission, is just a rehash of everything we have already heard her say or write. No new vitriol for us to feast upon.

    "come on Ann..."

    Ann Coulter in this book is funny and quick-witted. She is always fresh and witty in interview. Unfortunately life is not as simple as the Ann Coulter witticism would make it. We live in a diverse world that is not simply USA and us alone. I wish our world was the Ann Coulter image....it is not. If you want balance-this is not it. If you want comedy that is sadly onesided...this is it. I live with an Ann Coulter...they are beautifully rigid in their correct beliefs... but the world is fluid.
