Nancy Pelosi's Book deluged with negative reviews on Amazon from Reich-wing zombies
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0385525869/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

How does this happen? Is there a some sort of concentrated effort? I mean, it's insane!

Every single one of these negative reviews reveals HUGE bias by the reviewer, and I'm willing to bet none of them have even opened it.

Anyway, just thought I'd draw attention to this. Not a particularly big fan of Pelosi, but anyway, here it is.

1. That is so unfair. She needs more reviews from the left-wing people who ALSO hate her. n/t

4. Like the chain emails, reich wingers have endless energy and
time for this crap.

One wonders if they are all college students, or retired, or even paid operatives.

The left never does this stuff. Maybe we have jobs?

6. Sad, because that supports the fiction that "Well, if both sides hate me...
then I must be doing something right." Which is hogwash.

But that flood of Republicon hate messaging will make her feel like a Democrat doing her duty.

When in fact the book title would make more sense as "ASSERTING YOUR POWER IS TOO DIVISIVE," since that seems to be her argument du jour against impeachment.

7. Par for the course
I've had books slimed at amazon by people who wanted to hurt me. No, they'd not read the books - that was obvious - and their "reviews" were simply hateful.

For the most part, amazon.com does a really good job of sanitizing those sites and taking down the offensive "reviews," but it will continue, because those jerks are nothing but hate and have nothing more than anonymity to give them false courage.

8. amazon reviews
Edited on Fri Aug-01-08 11:37 AM by 90-percent
read them this morning.

THEY WILL GO VIRAL MOMENTARILY!

I don't think it's confined to right wing hate. I think there's an equal smattering of left wing hate.

Might have something to do with having such a clueless twit in such an important position?

Anyone that asks on national TV: "If you can find a crime Bush committed, then we'll do something" is displaying ignorance or a willing suspension of disbelief. Or a complete contempt for the Constitution Nancy took an oath to uphold.

YO, NANCY! Piss on the Constitution at your own peril. Some of us are ready to bring our pitchforks and torches to DC because of the likes of you!

Put your country over yourself and your party goddammit!

9. Nancy Pelosi needs to be deluged....
... a few minutes of waterboarding might sharpen her mind vis a vis impeachment.

10. You know what's funny?
Clicking on "see all my reviews" on the reviewers. Most of these people didn't read the book and it's obvious. The only other things they ever reviewed, if anything, was a movie or video game.

Why would anyone be so dishonest as to review a book they never read? I couldn't bring myself to do that ever.

11. I think
Edited on Fri Aug-01-08 11:39 AM by 90-percent
I think this is happening because the American people are fed up with the entire Congress abdicating their Constitutional Responsibilities to act like a co-equal branch of government, and this is the peoples way of attacking them where it hurts.

NOTHING ELSE WE DO GETS TO THESE POEPLE! How the hell are we supposed to get them to listen to the people of America?

Nothing else we have all done is getting any of their attention. This could be the first breach in their castle walls to bring the lot of them down?

12. You have to read a book to review it?
I'd have never made it through high school if I actually read all the books I reported on.

13. Even better, I could review a book ...
... before it's written.

GWB's memoires, for example
:rofl:

17. So stupid they can't understand that she's been their very bestest friend in congress...
How the hell else do they think the Bushies have been able to roam free, continue their global crime wave and pursue their war against the American people and completely escape accountability, impeachment and prosecution?

If not for Ms. Nancy and her magic table, the country would be greatly improved and it's even a good bet that Bush and Cheney would have already been impeached and kicked out of office.

Better yet, facing federal indictments for everything from signing statements to high treason for the Plame episode, they'd be spending every possible minute with a team of criminal defense attorneys who plot, scheme and spend millions on bribes in a last-ditch effort to keep them from the gallows or life in a supermax without possibility of parole.

So rather than slandering her, they should get down on their knees and pray that their gawd of the eternal tax exemption will keep and preserve her for the duration of Bushie's term and for another four years of a McCorpse administration once they steal their third straight presidential election.

But because, at the core, they're too stupid to think their way out of a wet paper bag, they'll keep up the campaign of abuse and indulge their gift for shooting themselves in the foot once again.
