VANITY: Amazon.com needs FReeping
amazon.com ^

Looks like people are staring to recommend anti-Bush books in addition to Unfit for Command. If you are an Amazon member, we could use your help to recommend better additional books.

I have added a pro-Bush Reviews and recommended conservative additional books, but the RATS are hitting the Amazon site hard.

I have written Amazon about the political comments being posted as a "Book Review" and asked them to quit posting lies on their site.

Only unless the site is Freeped will it get fixed.

I want my swift boat books. I ordered 2 of them a month ago and nothing yet.

Log into amazon.com, look up Unfit for Command on Amazon.com, then go to book details and scroll down, you will see where you can recommend a book

Also, it looks like someone's been hitting the reviews of the reviews (was this review helpful to you? question). The only reviews I could see after logging in were positive, so I voted "yes" in answer to the question about helpfulness of the review, but apparently, a great many people have been voting no. Sorry if that's not clear.

if i may....

My book "Playing A Bad Lie" is doing fairly well on Amazon.com. It is a scathing indictment of all who subscribe to the Democratic Platform. I know many who have ordered it are also fans of "Unfit For Command". If you need a conservative book to add on, all mention would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I know absolutely nothing about golf, (and it is nearly midnight here) so I didn't understand the title until I actually looked at the book on Amazon. Great title!

I'm sort of assuming here that when a customer at amazon looks at one book and then shops for another book from that page, amazon records it and markets those secondary books on the page showcasing the first book. A suggestion -- you could get some of your golfing buddies to shop for books about golf, and at the same click through to your book. (you've probably already thought of this -- I'm not very original at this time of night :-)

I write also, just don't have anything major published. One newspaper opinion column, a small children's book I published myself just for my family, and I'm working on a novel and a non-fiction book using adoption issues to explain the Christian life.

Best wishes in your quest to win the Masters!

The book was as fun an experience to write as I could have ever hoped. And I'm actually not that much of a writer, just very motivated by this political season. Yet, because of the book and it's success, I've been sent notes from our Governor, and our two senators, Zell Miller and Saxby Chambliss. I would encourage you greatly to follow your passion and keep working on getting your manuscript out there. My contact info is at the book's website (www.playingabadlie.com). Let me know if I can help.
