I do not waver with my opinions, but in a nod to bipartisanship, let me see if I can placate both sides: ...

William Morrow, 2004
A fair look at president Bush

Treason: Liberal Treachery from the Cold War to the War on Terrorism

Solid
+ A must read
After having seen Miss Coulter being diabolised so much and so consistently, I thought I'd check her out. So I watched videos on YouTube. It was interesting enough, but I thought one should read her stuff to get a better idea. That's how I got to this book.
