I not sure what part of my statement you have an issue with.

"Really" is a form of agreement. I extended from there.

As for Coulter, she's a vampire. 'nuff said

Yeah, and she is locked onto the liberal community's neck, and they can't shake her.

Do they still do that trick where they sell gobs of these books to bookstores (thus getting the book on the bestseller lists), then re-sell the books at discount rates to various foundations who give them away as freebies?

Ann had a marketing failure this time, for one thing. Usually, immediately before she releases a book, she deliberately says something horrible like "The 9'11 widows are attention whores" or whatever, there's a big brouhaha, and she gets lots of free publicity. This time she hasn't managed to get that publicity. I wonder what she said that was ignored this time.

Ann Coulter's newest came out the same time as President Obama took office - I do believe that most Americans want the President to succeed in the general sense of the term and is more than willing to give any new President a break from the incessant partisanship (notice I state Americans and not the political class). It would have been smarter for her to wait until President Obama's poll numbers start dropping to release the book but I guess she was first out of the gate and the paperback should be out by Christmas.

Anderson I wasn’t sure. Sometime you think someone mean a post one way and it isn’t or that they a being sarcastic and they are not. So instead of jumping to conclusions at what I think people mean I thought I would just ask.

Now, I love Ann Coulter, but, quite frankly, Guilty was only so-so. Bernie Goldbergs's book was rather weak, too.

She may have lost a few conservatives with her comments about campaigning for Hillary if McCain got the GOP nomination. I crossed her off my buy list at that point.

Wayne, I think Bitsy was agreeing with you.

Legion, she's a cynical fascist posing as a drag queen.

Bit
I not sure what part of my statement you have an issue with. I was trying to point out people will twist any situation to push their agenda. I.E. Ann decrease of sales of one book even though it is still high as proof that “people are tired of her schtick” even though the opposite result wouldn’t draw the opposite conclusion. Politicians do the same thing with elections. When they win it is “the people have spoken and they want “all” of our agenda to pass” vs. when they lose then it is “we didn’t get our message out and it is not a mandate for the other party agenda”.

Granted everyone has a right to their opinion but I have a right to rebuttal.

Even if that is true, Babe Ruth did not blast it over the fence every time he stepped to the plate.

Over the long run, she has been and will continue to be a very provocative person. She will probably sell more books in the future that she has in the past.

Wayne; really.
And of course, there's a slight downturn in sales, just now for her latest book... after all, it's already several months out from day of release. (December 30th, if I"m not much mistaken)

Look, let's simply assume Bercovici is enguaged in leftie cheerleading, having apparently nothing more substansive to write about of late, that fits within his mantra. Like for example, he could write about the screaming failure of the Obama misadministration. But no, that wouldn't do very well for the picture he wants to paint, would it?

Mpppphhhhpppfff.

No, no - Coulter's a fascist posing as a drag queen. "Hey! You got your drag queen in my fascism!" "Oh yeah? You got your fascism in my drag queen!"

“is that people are tired of her schtick.”

So if her next book does well or if there is a sudden uptick in sales with this one, will you be writing that the opposite is true or will you come up with some other excuse?
