Product Description: “Uttering lines that send liberals into paroxysms of rage, otherwise known as ‘citing facts,’ is the spice of life. When I see the hot spittle flying from their mouths and the veins bulging and pulsing above their eyes, well, that’s when I feel truly alive.”
So begins If Democrats Had Any Brains, They’d Be Republicans, Ann Coulter’s funniest, most devastating, and, yes, most outrageous book to date.
Coulter has become the brightest star in the conservative firmament thanks to her razor-sharp reasoning and biting wit. Of course, practically any time she opens her mouth, liberal elites denounce Ann, insisting that “She’s gone too far!” and hopefully predicting that this time it will bring a crashing end to her career.
Now you can read all the quotes that have so outraged her enemies and so delighted her legions of fans. More than just the definitive collection of Coulterisms, If Democrats Had Any Brains, They’d Be Republicans includes dozens of brand-new commentaries written by Coulter and hundreds of never-before-published quotations. This is Ann at her best, covering every topic from A to Z. Here you’ll read Coulter’s take on:
• Her politics: “As far as I’m concerned, I’m a middle-of-the-road moderate and the rest of you are crazy.” • Hillary Clinton: “Hillary wants to be the first woman president, which would also make her the first woman in a Clinton administration to sit behind the desk in the Oval Office instead of under it.” • The environment: “God gave us the earth. We have dominion over the plants, the animals, the trees. God said, ‘Earth is yours. Take it. Rape it. It’s yours.’” • Religion: “It’s become increasingly difficult to distinguish the pronouncements of the Episcopal Church from the latest Madonna video.” • Global warming: “The temperature of the planet has increased about one degree Fahrenheit in the last century. So imagine a summer afternoon when it’s 63 degrees and the next thing you know it’s . . . 64 degrees. Ahhhh!!!! Run for your lives, everybody! Women and children first!” • Gun control: “Mass murderers apparently can’t read, since they are constantly shooting up ‘gun-free zones.’” • Bill Clinton: “Bill Clinton’s library is the first one to ever feature an Adults Only section.” • Illegal aliens: “I am the illegal alien of commentary. I will do the jokes that no one else will do.”
If Democrats Had Any Brains, They’d Be Republicans is a must-have for anyone who loves (or loves to hate) Ann Coulter.
Partisan ranting. As a middle- of-the-road American, I'm always curious to find out what the partisan extremes are thinking; therefore I gave this a try. I've read and listened to Coulter in various contexts, so this review speaks for her other publications as well. Ann Coulter is everything that's wrong with Generation X(of which I'm also a memeber) in its most concentrated form; cold, hard, cynical, "it's all about ME", unsympathetic, self absorbed, grab and get ahead and God help who gets in my way, all taken to its insane extreme, as it were. After reading this you will know what she's against, ad nauseum. What the moderate, middle-of-the-road reader may well wonder is what she's FOR. My litmus test for people, their opinions and their books is, would I have this person at my dinner table? Would I care to spend any time in this person's company? Could I lean over my fence and gain something from this person that would make my world a better place, even just for a few hours? In Coulter's case no, no and no. As for her book, once you put it down, you cannot pick it back up again.
Ann Coulter Ann Coulter represents a very slim portion of the population. She's also clearly delusional when it comes to environmental issues. Why do they allow crazy people to publish books, Hunter S. Thompson excluded?
Lonely stick-woman calls people names, writes another book It just doesn't stop. What is this, the sixth book by stick-woman? Does it matter? It's the same book, every year. The same shtick, all the time.
I'd like to write a wittier review of this book, but it's difficult. I never bought a Coulter book, I never will. I preview these books along with other pundit offerings in bookstores, reading through them (that's 'reading' through them) until I get that shifting feeling in my stomach that tells me it's time to find a restroom. It's kind of not funny anymore. It's not answerable. You have to be immersed in the current media culture, a funny one where the media themselves take shots at 'the media' and blame liberals or conservatives or other bogeymen, in order to comment on this book in any serious way. How long can this show hold up?
This woman needs something else in her life. She's 46 or 47 now---her alleged lying about her age makes no difference anymore as she's thankfully past the expiration date for having demon spawn. She has no chance of children, which is good for the human race, but it sadly guarantees more trees will die for dozens more books. Her self hatred, deep and deeply masked, is psychically affecting the country in ways we cannot quantify. She is a pathetic little person, educated and rich and completely empty. Anyone who thrives on this kind of controversy and hatred has issues that no bestseller list will solve.
Ann Coulter once said that perhaps women shouldn't vote, since in most recent elections a Republican would have been elected every time if only men voted. Her criticisms of herself don't even make sense. Bizarrely, Ann Coulter herself is proof that women shouldn't vote, go to school (particularly law school), own property, work, or leave the house. That would put the USA on the level of the nations Coulter hates on (invade their countries and blah blah blah), which is another odd twist in her whole act.
Recommended for those just about to go over the edge, or the clinically constipated.
Hysteria, and its Implications Ann Coulter has my deepest sympathy. Hysteria can be a very debilitating disease, causing hallucinations as well as violent and vulgar outbursts. She suffers from delusions and severe self-loathing, which results in incoherent babbling and rambling about things that she is not even aware. Serious psychological counseling may help elevate this problem, however a better remedy might be a serious commitment to another human being. With her social life in disarray, she has jumped off the cliff of normalcy, into the dark and murky waters of mania. She like many others such as Rush Limbaugh (who suffers from a Napoleonic Complex, as well as addiction to pain relievers), and Bill O'Reilly who has delusions of self-grandeur, all could use some serious psychological counseling. Their ramblings and ranting are consistent with a total loss of mental and emotional control. Without realizing it, they have all become embarrassments to themselves and their "professions." Hopefully, they will all get the counseling they need before they express themselves verbally.
This is a must read for liberals and conservatives alike Coulter's books should be required reading in our public schools. She is a constitutional scholar, theologian and a literary talent of the highest order. Her passionate, yet entirely factual, arguments about why we should kill all the muslims and 9/11 widows and convert them to christianity are well reasoned and irrefutable. Although I don't completely understand how you would convert somebody to christianity after you have killed them, I certainly agree with her premise that we are obligated as a Christian nation to go out into the world to torture and kill all those who have not accepted our beliefs and our way of life. It is the principal on which this nation was founded.
She has openly and proudly admitted that she does not strive for objectivity or fairness. But that does not negate the facts which she presents such as Larry Craig being the greatest Senator of all time or that the hurricane katrina victims had it coming. Although she is admittedly one-sided, she is a popular commentator who is frequently seen on TV talk shows, so her opinions are valuable and must be published and sold in bookstores around the country year after year even if they may seem a bit repetitious. I, like many other 5-star reviewers here, am a die-hard liberal. But I find Coulter to be among the most reasoned and intelligent of today's political commentators. To many people it may not make sense for a liberal to recommend this book so highly, or to suggest that it should be required reading for both liberals and conservatives. Nonetheless, I thank Amazon for allowing me to express my deeply held opinion on this subject.
