good book

I feel I have to set the record straight and counter the Coulter basher's ridiculous reviews. As will all of Ann's books, this is intelligent, thoughtful, and articulate. A must read for liberals (victims and perpetrators of brainwashing). Ann is well informed and refreshingly politically incorrect. (One wonders how much longer the liberals will allow her to speak out on their nonsense.)

Powerful and so true

I was one of those brainwashed into thinking joe McCarthy was the problem instead of the solution and will now read the Evona Project and the other scholarly book recommended by Ann in this book. She is so clear and documents everything so well - unlike so many today who make up facts to support their premise. I don't always like her analogies - "... by Truman would be like appointing Bin Laden to secretary of state ..." type things - but her writing style is really fun. This particular book clarifies so many things that were confusing to me in my early years and I purchased copies for three friends. It is very important to see just what so many in America are doing today to undermine this great country. It is especially important for the liberals to read this book so that they can redirect their efforts so as to still accomplish their exalted aims without causing so much harm. This book really is a must read - especially by the media moguls who are causing so much harm with their "America is always wrong" reporting.

Hilarious and Interesting

The more I read of Ann Coulter, the more I think she's the wittiest writer around today. She's just hilarious. It's worth also listening to the abridged audio books in the car just to hear her deliver the zingers herself. My husband and I listen to her audio books on long drives, and she has us laughing out loud the whole way. Aside from being highly entertaining, this book was interesting. She writes in detail about Soviet infiltration of our government and media during the Cold War. The book presented a lot of information that I had never heard before and made me want to investigate the subject further. Don't be fooled--this book has three stars because people who hate Ann Coulter's politics have been giving the book one star. Buy this book, and you won't be disappointed.

Proving Ann's Point

In this book Ann moves through the actual events and then compares them to the reporting of the events then and now. A very straight foreward read...

Courage To Baffle The Punditocracy

Ann Coulter's book Treason, the most important political book in the past half-century, is now available. It should be required reading for every American. Yes, I'm perfectly serious. Treason addresses the extraordinary contrast the Left's approach to national security makes with that of the Right. The first hundred twenty pages of the book are given to a shattering re-examination of the life and work of the most maligned figure in modern American politics: Senator Joseph McCarthy of Wisconsin. As was Slander, it's meticulously footnoted -- and all the references appear to check out perfectly. There are folks who dislike Coulter's take-no-prisoners style. "Of tastes there is nothing written," say the sages. There are folks who think no one would pay her any attention if she weren't a tall, beautiful blonde. Nearly all of these are her ideological adversaries. There are folks who think her willingness to say precisely what she thinks is somehow shameful, a detriment to the American political dialogue. These persons, who've dispensed a lot of slander at conservatives in their day, have a funny idea of the dictates of gentility. Ann Coulter has been called virtually every vicious name in the book for her opinions and her unabashed presentations thereof. I don't agree with all of her positions, but I admire her tremendously for her courage. When one makes one's living by the written word, to express oneself as she's done requires quite a lot of courage. As has been pointed out by many observers of the punditry scene, including Coulter herself, it's not conservative authors who rake in the big bucks for their work -- despite their enormous differential popularity among persons who buy nonfiction books. Name one person in public life these past fifty years who's had a kind word for Joe McCarthy. With the aid of the recently declassified Venona Project intercepts of Soviet cable transmissions, Coulter constructs an airtight case that McCarthy was dead accurate, which would make him the preeminent defender of the United States since the conclusion of World War II. She never flinches from this stance. She exposes a thousand libels and deliberate distortions of the record, perpetrated by the Democratic Party and its annex in the media, in the attempt to undermine McCarthy's case. She labels those who've rewritten history to defame the Senator in the years since his hearings as traitors -- a label they richly deserve. With Communism essentially defeated, defending the foremost crusader against Communist infiltration of the United States government, dead for almost a half-century, might seem like an unnecessary undertaking. Unnecessary or not, it is simple justice -- and for seeing to it, Ann Coulter deserves far more credit for her forthrightness, her clarity, and her courage than she's likely to get.
