Ann Coulter's New Book: Free Offer - Save Almost $32!
You have a once in a life time offer to get Ann Coulter's new book FREE -- with shipping that's a value of almost $32!

You want to read Ann's long-awaited new book. It's opened on the New York Times bestseller list at #1.

Now we know how it got there - they're giving it away. Just like she does - haw haw haw.

After a century and a half of examining the fossil record, Coulter states, evolution's proponents have failed to substantiate its claims, and instead one supposed piece of evidence after another has been exposed as a hoax.

But liberals cling devotedly to Darwinism, Coulter says, because they desperately need to disprove the possibility of God's existence at any cost - and will accept no challenges to their "official religion."

Yeah, all those librul scientists - what do THEY know? They're all a bunch of socialistic, French-looking, horsefaced flip floppers.

4. These right wing companies
buy the books in bulk and then offer them out to like minded RWers for next to nothing. That's how they get RW authors on the best sellers list. Newsmax and other places have been doing it for years.

7. haven't you noticed that just last week
they were almost giving it away already. It's been out 2 weeks or so and it was selling for like $5. best-sellers doesn't mean it made money, just that a lot of copies went out, most to the same people.

2. Sweet, I could use some new toilet paper.
And I'll put my paper shredder to use shredding the yearly subscription of Newsmax that comes with it.

6. OMG, I had no idea that she embraced creationism in her latest screed
I've generally considered Ms. Coulter to be quite intelligent-- smart people can have radically different views about social issues-- but CREATIONISM? Now I have to wonder whether she actually believes that or whether she's just whoring for the ignorant among her readership. Kind of seems like a contradiction in terms, doesn't it-- that anyone interested enough to read her books would be so ignorant as to reject evolution out of hand. Most people who do that ARE ignorant about what evolution is or how it works, so I'm not using the term disparagingly-- it's an accurate description of the most common reason for embracing creationism and rejecting the notion of biological evolution.

10. We don't know if she embraces creationism or not
When the BBC's Jeremy Paxman interviewed her, he asked incredulously if she believed that the world was created in six days and she refused to answer.

Before that, question 1 was): "Ms. Coulter, your publisher has given me Chapter 1 of your book and I read it. Does it get any better? "


IMO, she is doing a schtick in the same vein as an Andrew Dice Clay or Andy Kaufmann type performance. She is making money and laughing all the way to the bank.

8. This is the practice that cost Jim Wright the speakership and later
Newt Gingritch his speakership.

Newt claimed that the bulk purchase of Wright's book was tantamount to an illegal contribution. He later fell on the same sword.

14. one of my co-workers was going to buy it
right after it came out. he said this within earshot of me, but i no longer engage the koolaid drinker in political conversation. in his case, it's a waste of my breath and energy.

maybe i should check with him and see if he really bought it? i could save him some $$.

such a dilemma....should i or shouldn't i? hmmmmm...should i or shouldn't i?

:evilgrin:

16. Let him buy the book
If he buys the magazine he'll get 12 months worth of disinformation as opposed to a one shot deal in reading the book.

17. Ann Coulter continuing her “Hatespeak 2006” tour…
I posted this back on 6/15, but I thought it was relevant. Enjoy...


Ann Coulter, the blonde conshell who has raised eyebrows, blood pressures, and bile in my throat recently with her new book, “Godless: The Church of Liberalism”, and her deliberately insensitive remarks regarding 9/11 widows, continued her spew circuit last night with an appearance on The Tonight Show. Now I’m not generally a Leno fan, and I’m certainly not an Ann Coulter fan, but I did watch The Tonight Show last night, mainly because I love George Carlin and K.T. Tunstall. I was also somewhat hoping that Mr. Carlin would ream Ann a new one – it couldn’t happen to a nicer bitch, and it couldn’t come from a better source. Alas, that didn’t happen. Everyone pretty much behaved themselves.

I was rather surprised by the ovation Coulter received, and I suspect that Coulter’s people “stuffed the ballot box” as far as the crowd is concerned. Hey, it works for elections, why not talk shows? I was also reminded why it is that I’m not so fond of Jay Leno… The man can’t do an interview to save his life, and he actually called Coulter a “great writer” – no accounting for taste (perhaps Jay considers “great writing” to be the ability to form complete sentences). And while he paid lip service to the idea that Ann may have offended some people, he certainly didn’t take her to task for her rampant hate speech. If Tony Snow decides to leave the post as White House Press Secretary, they can always offer it to Leno – he can toss bad one-liners in with the misinformation.

All-in-all, it was a pretty tame show, with Coulter coming across as her usual sickeningly smug, superior-than-thou self, Leno coming across as the dolt he normally is, Carlin incredibly funny and irreverent, as always, and Tunstall sounding great as ever.

Now I thought that while I was on the subject of Ms. Coulter, I’d offer her some ideas for her next book:

Soulless: The Conservative Church of Greed and Corruption.

Shameless: How I made a fortune from the 9/11 tragedy by accusing real victims of doing the same thing.

Brainless: Intelligence is WAY overrated.

Spineless: The art of calling others cowards while hiding from reality.

Shemale: My secret life as a Nazi man in a neocon woman’s body.

And finally, in deference to Dale Carnegie…

How to make money and influence policy: Friends and people are WAY overrated.


Whadya think Ann? Have I pegged your ideological bent pretty accurately?
