I want to see this issue debated fully BEFORE the election.

If that changed caused the sales, methinks there are going to be a bunch of unhappy buyers. *\:-)

Why do I get the feeling this was done by some Kerry hating hackers!

Curiousity factor strikes again! Look what O'Reilly did to Al Franken's book sales when he continually kept talking about suing him for stealing Fox's "Fair and Balanced" slogan...sales went from something like #300 to #1. It's nice to see it backfire on the other side for a change....

Which one is the unauthorised cover? How did it get on Barnes and Noble's website?

"Look what O'Reilly did to Al Franken's book sales"

Speaking of O'Reilly someone on a thread this morning said one of the swift boat men was going to be on O'Reilly today. Has anyone seen that program and how did he fair with O'Reilly?

Perhaps a bunch of Bush haters thought they were buying a pro-Kerry book.

This is great! This could only hurt Kerry when all the loyal Democrats buy what they think is a book on his Vietnam heroics (mostly because no one is quite sure what they actually were).

When I went to the Barnes and Nobel site the one with the picture of Kerry was there, so when did the other one appear?

I thought O'Reilly was less than fair with the Swift Boat Veteran, but then, I think O'Reilly is a pig.

Twas already #2 on Amazon over the weekend. I am showing up in person to pick my copy up Wednesday...to show my support.

Kerry had to hire lawyers from the DNC and contact all media outlets against the release of the Swift Boat vets ads..the President didn't hire lawyers against Moore's movie and books, MoveOn.org or any or the other Hate Bush/Republicans publications out there.

Wonder if the liberals will hold a book burning soon!;)

I'll bet John Kerry wishes he could go back to bunny suit gate.

O'Reilly has outlived his usefulness at Fox. I hope they will replace him with someone more interesting and less pompous within the next year. His schtick is worn out.

The site appears to be slashdotted or down: what's the story ?
