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.

im just gonna cut to the chase. it sucks big ones. i've read some sucky books before but this one takes the cake. don't buy it! you will thank me later. reading this book is a form of brain rape in more advanced societies! the title of this book should be "if people had brains they would stop buying my crappy books". also ann coulture should get a new dress. we get it! you want to look pretty but you look like a transvestite with a blond wig who's suffering from full blown AIDS (i mean that in the kindest way). get a new dress and eat something. if not for you're bulk book buying fan club, then for the children who you skare with you're skeletor like appearance.. anyways in summary if i had to rate this book it would be rated A MILLION THUMBS DOWN!
 Ann Coulter tells it like it is November 12, 2008
I devoured this book in about a day and a half. Ms Coulter has gathered a plethora of some of her best columns, interviews and books from the past decade and arranged them by subject under different chapters revealing how ridiculous, out-of-touch, or downright dangerous the Democratic Party has become. I especially love her quote about how it is almost always the best decision to do the exact opposite of what Jimmy Carter says. Great stuff. I can't wait to see what she has to say over the next two years, with Obama and a Congress that no longer has to pretend it wants to cater to the middle.

If you're a conservative looking for a book to reinforce your predefined views of liberalism, this book is for you. If you're looking for a little more substance, though, move along.

Loved this book. Ann has the guts to be brutally honest about the democrats. She says the things that most people are thinking in their minds but cannot say for fear of retaliation.
As a democrat, I see and hear the hypocrisy from them every day. They will lie, cheat and steal to achieve their goals- be it abortion, affirmative action or redistribution of wealth. I stay a democrat (and vote Republican whenever I can) so that I can vote for the candidate least likely to win in any local, state or national elections.
This book exposes the truth, which the democrats hide from, like roaches from light.
This book should be required reading in every public school, providing they can read.
Keep it up Ann, we need you.
Biting, Sarcastic, and Highly Intelligent October 23, 2008

"If what I say is so outrageous, why don't they quote me accurately?"
- page 80 (Hardback edition)
Since she burst on the political commentary scene in 1996, Ann Coulter has been both adored and hated for her sarcastic conservative comments. With no attempt being made to hide her right-wing bias, she is unashamedly blunt about her views, often coating them in biting repartee. It seems that each time Coulter opens her mouth (or posts another column on her website), the mainstream media screams that she's "done it this time!" Yet her books are bestsellers, and she continues to be published. As she points out, if she's so over-the-top, why are people continuing to read her work?
In her sixth book, "If Democrats Had Any Brains, They'd Be Republicans," Ann assembles a collection of her most famous quotes, columns, and interviews on subjects from airport security to taxes, and everything in between. Each chapter contains a brief commentary on the subject, followed by a collection of dated quotes illustrating her beliefs and opinions.
I must admit that, in the past, I have stayed away from political non-fiction. As a conservative Republican, I have found much of it to be in disagreement with my personal views on matters, and I like reading as a way to escape the seriousness of my everyday life. But as I thumbed through a copy of this book at Borders a week ago, I knew I had to read it. Coulter's wit and humor make the book a fast read, and her comments are intelligent enough to get you thinking while funny enough to make you laugh. And, while I can't say that I agree with her viewpoints on everything, I agree enough to have made this book worth my time.
If you are not a conservative, do not agree with Ann's points of view, or are a liberal Democrat, then you probably will not enjoy this book. If, however, you do enjoy reading an intelligent yet witty commentary on the current state of political affairs in the United States (with an admittedly right-wing voice), this book is for you.
