Summary: How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must): Review and Analysis of Ann Coulters Book

Maybe I like horrifying my peers when I refuse to switch the station. But isn't it fascinating to observe the folks at work? It's as if someone- either us or them- is missing a crucial part of the brain, and thus the two groups will never see anything in the same way. Ann Coulter calls John Edwards a faggot, and she's immediately praised by one sector and reviled by the other. Nobody has to spend a lot of time trying to decide whether he or she likes Ms.

Coulter- you either do, or you don't. And you do so with a passion. The moral of the story? In a world where pretty much nothing is black and white, right or wrong, blah blah blah, Ann Coulter and her innate desire to bring back the word "pinko" give us something around which we can unite. And i hate to say it, but she's kind of hot- for a fag-hatin' Commie-slayin' warmongering wench.

I'm sure you think I'm just being glib. Let me assure you, I'm not being glib at all.

Every time someone says that this hypocritical and bigoted idiot's points are 'sound,' or anything of the sort, I quite literally feel my eyes well up with tears, and am overcome with the urge to go back in time and bring Socrates or Cicero to America so he can argue down every flawed, holey argument she made.

I'm not going to degenerate into capslock, though it's tempting, and I'm not going to go so far as to say this book should be burned, along with the two others I've read both of which I just don't have the courage or stamina to review , but honestly: Do you know, I have no end to that statement.

It's like the people who are so liberal they become vegans and only clothe themselves in hemp - except a lot more people read her books than makes that analogy feasible. I'm just going to finish up this review which is quickly becoming incoherent, I know by saying that this book would make a logician cry; and not only that, but become so despondent at the state of humanity that he had no choice but to fling himself off something very high and onto something very hard.

Please, for God's sake, this woman is nothing but a manipulator, and a terrible writer on top of that. Half the 'facts' in this must have been gotten off of Rush Limbaugh alone, because they have no basis in reality - or have been skewed to the point that, though real, their actual meaning has no basis in the meaning she assigns to them.

Jun 02, Ken rated it did not like it Shelves: Her nonsensical rantings are surprisingly easy to read, which probably speaks to the literacy of her audience. Lies, contempt, nastiness, and a complete disregard for anything resembling humanity. Even Joe McCarthy would have been uncomfortable around this creature. View all 3 comments. Jun 04, Nandakishore Varma rated it did not like it Shelves: The essence of being a liberal: I thought that this was the essence of being Ann Coulter.

Jan 10, Erick rated it it was amazing. Okay, this book is seriously funny! If you're a conservative, you'll laugh until you can't catch your breath! If you're a liberal, you'll probably set this book on fire and send hate mail to the author! Don't take this book too seriously. Many good points are made and she really nails the liberal thought process, which can be helpful in a heated debate but everything shoud be taken in moderation and "moderation" isn't one of her strong points!

Just enjoy the ride and take some notes! View all 5 comments. May 01, Tamra rated it did not like it Recommends it for: I saw this book on a library shelf and brought it home. I knew nothing about Ann Coulter, and I thought the book was something of a joke. You know, "Ha, ha, liberals are the worst people in the world. Now, seriously, getting down to business: It wasn't a joke. There was nothing productive about the book.

How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must)

She only used insults to appeal to the hatred inside people. I know someone else who used this tactic well. A I saw this book on a library shelf and brought it home. Ann Coulter should make Conservatives ashamed to claim her. I think Ann Coulter might be insane. If she's not, she's simply mean and spiteful and angry and I just can't put into words the amount of pity I feel for a person as one-sided and mean as Ann Coulter.

Or is that too hippy liberal for you? View all 8 comments. Nov 20, David Simonetti rated it it was amazing Shelves: The woman the left loves to hate gives them plenty of material in this book. Ann Coulter is provacative, funny and on point with respect to many issues. But because she can sometimes express her point of view in such biting tones, she takes a way from some of her substantive arguments. But instead of throwing pies at her or heckling her speeches, the left would be well advised to take her point of view and consider.

She makes some very interesting and provocative points, but I guess the left doe The woman the left loves to hate gives them plenty of material in this book. She makes some very interesting and provocative points, but I guess the left doesn't really care to enforce the First Amendment unless it applies to their point of view. View all 6 comments.

She fails to grasp even the most basic tenets of either conservatism or liberalism even dating back to inception within 17th century Europe and instead replaces true definitions with her own, which of course, are outlandish and nothing more than pure propaganda. In her eyes, a liberal is someone who hates America, hates God, and hates applie pie. If Ann Coulter was ready to have a proper debate withou Ann Coulter truly outdoes herself in this ridiculous screed against a spectre of an opponent.

If Ann Coulter was ready to have a proper debate without acting like a young child, as she often acts in debates and in her writing, it would be possible to read her books. Unfortunetely, that is not the case. Her continual use of hyperbole to the extent of incitement of felonies is particularly frightening. One must ask oneself if this type of dialogue is for the benefit of the nation, or simply Ms. May 15, Steph rated it it was amazing Shelves: Most people won't agree with everything Ann Coulter has to say.

In fact, most people would probably like to set her on fire. I can't say I agree. I enjoy Ann's writing, and politics included, I enjoy her commentary. She's controversial, she says mean things. There is one article in here that wasn't printed in a women's journal, that I wish readers could disconnect from her political philosophy. The base of the argument was like attracts like, and if you think something is socially acc Most people won't agree with everything Ann Coulter has to say. The base of the argument was like attracts like, and if you think something is socially acceptable, you will flock toward others that feel the same.

Summary of How to Talk to a Liberal (If You Must) - Ann Coulter by Capitol Reader

Ann was on a radio talk show and a caller was trying to say marital cheating happens everywhere, because she had been cheated on, and it's a common thing. Ann argues it is only common around cheaters, and that doesn't make it okay. Jun 02, Mandy rated it it was ok Shelves: This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. I'm having to read this one in small spurts, because that's about all I can stand.

I was looking for a bit of comedy as well as some insight to the conservative mind , but mostly it's just pissing me off. The woman talks about how liberals don't have their facts straight, but neither does she! The part that irritated me most thus far was her misinterpretation of Ex Parte Milligan as a Supreme Court opinion in order to further an argument about military tribunals in Guantanamo Bay. I'll elaborat I'm having to read this one in small spurts, because that's about all I can stand.

I'll elaborate more on this as I continue reading, but I'm tempted to get on her website and write a rebuttal. Jun 14, haley rated it did not like it Shelves: Ye gods, why the ever loving fuck did I think reading this would be a good idea? I only read the first chapter. Maybe I'll come back and finish it someday, but for now I need to lie down and take a break from this. I, quite frankly, wonder if Coulter actually believes the shit she wrote or if she was just trying to piss people off.

Let me share a few lovely gems major sarcasm that can be found in chapter 1. If you can somehow force a liberal into a point-counterp Ye gods, why the ever loving fuck did I think reading this would be a good idea? If you can somehow force a liberal into a point-counterpoint argument, his retorts will bear no relation to what you said- unless you were, in fact, talking about your looks, your age, your weight, your personal obsessions, or whether you are a fascist Page 3.

Come to think of it, since our side does not accept Klansmen, murderers, or rapists, this rule maybe be simplified to: Start with the maximum assertion about liberals and then push the envelope because, as we know, their evil is incalculable.

They stand for the godless rule of dictators. They apologize for abortion, adultery, and everything bestial in society. We just don't think they should get married. Liberals actually hate homosexuals Page Coulter accuses all liberals of always making baseless assertions that can't be backed up with evidence and painting all conservatives with the same brush.

Then she turns around and does the exact same thing to liberals. She is guilty of the very thing that she accuses all liberals of doing, and I can't stand it. So, Ann Coulter and people who are just like her: I can have a certain level of respect for people who disagree with me and are steadfast in their beliefs. But I have no respect for hypocrites. May 11, Tom Eldridge rated it did not like it. I am neither liberal nor conservative, but I would not put a dime in this whores pocket. Coulter is evil, she should be destroyed, the planet would be a nicer place without her ignorant presence on it.

And all this book is, is a collection of crappy pieces from the early 90's. Typical of this bitch to deceive people into thinking they were getting something new. Just a rehash of the same old hateful garbage, which wasn't particularly witty or entertaining to begin with. Go to hell Ann, I am su I am neither liberal nor conservative, but Go to hell Ann, I am sure there is a room reserved for you.

Oct 20, Samrat rated it did not like it Shelves: I like to keep up with "the other side", but her writing doesn't add anything substantive to the debate. Her criticisms of liberals are just dripping with dehumanizing condescension. I may think some Republicans are naive or callous or sometimes even dumb, but I think they deserve respect as human beings. She doesn't and doesn't care if you know it. And if that's what you want to read?

All power to you. And if you want to pick up her rhetorical style? I guess we have nothing mo Couldn't take it. I guess we have nothing more to say. Nov 23, Ronda Panucci rated it really liked it. I really enjoyed this high speed read book. Love her or hate her The dedicated assault on truth and fairness by the media is revealed in a convincing manner. Frankly, I'm left thoroughly discouraged by the unethical, and often illegal, methods of attack unleashed on Trump by the media and our government. Love him, or hate him, one must conclude that Trump is being treated most unfairly. I strongly recommend this book to anyone seeking clarity on what has happened to date in the Mueller probe.

My take on the book: An indictment of the Left, particularly the media, for using itself primarily to wrongly rake President Trump over the coals continually and constantly.

I agree with Ms. Coulter but wish that she would use her considerable talents for something other than turning out almost via mass production, a series of books the effectiveness of which probably won't outlast her own time on Earth. The thing about the book I like the most is the heading for her Conclusion: The people of the coasts and large cities deplore the fact that the rest of us, many like me Working Class , voted for OUR champion, Donald Trump! The fact that we number enough to have won, rankles hell our of those who consider themselves to be our betters.

President Trump is making the 4th branch of our government the unelected unaccountable bureaucracy , the historically Left biased media propaganda machine , etc. Another classic Coulter effort. President Trump is making the 4th branch of the government the unelected unaccountable bureaucracy and the media really nervous. See all reviews.
