Book Reviews of If Democrats Had Any Brains, They'd Be Republicans
Book Review: Some good points, some things just put out there
Summary: 3 Stars
Coulter writes at what she does best, finding witty or witty sounding excuses to support Republicans over Democrats in any circumstance. Frankly, about the only thing she and Democrats probably agree on is that Bush Sr. did not do a good job with the war in Iraq, Afghanistan, and 9/11. But of course, Coulter has some kind of excuse to blame Bush's responsibility on "any old Democrat" even though Democrats may have nothing to do with Bush Sr.'s personal responsibilities or his decision for the country.
I think she makes some good points, and I think some things are just put out there and that she doesn't listen. She just wants only her opinion to be right to an extreme. She's good at analyzing situations, but she would not be good for a government position requiring much trust to keep stability, that is for sure. A "friend" a "Coulter Jr." told me about how great this book is. He acts just like Coulter, but just doesn't publish books and goes out and speaks like she does. Otherwise, he would probably be doing at least okay- (Coulter created and kept her niche first.) I am not particularly Democrat or Republican, but I try to give everything a chance. This book, while giving some fresh perspectives I would not have thought of, is quite hit or miss, too opinionated, and not always reasoning things out enough.
Summary of If Democrats Had Any Brains, They'd Be Republicans
"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.
