My Swiftboat book experience

Posted on 08/28/2004 3:14:19 PM PDT by WillT

What a day !! I went to the two largest book chains in the country and what an experience !! First, Barnes and Noble has the book but it's not on sale, for some reason. I told the manager that the book is #1 on the NY Times Bestseller list and all of those books are discounted. But not "Unfit For Command." So I told them I would go to Borders.....what a mistake !!!

No book. They have a waiting list for reserve copies. As I asked the store clerk why they don't have the #1 book in the country, some maggot-infested, dope-smoking, lefty whirls around and starts shouting at the top of his lungs that the "right wing, capitalist pig republicans didn't print enough books." I said, "Do you work here?" Of course he didn't work there. I asked if he was upset that the book was #1, but he continued to rant and rave. Just then, another customer walked up and told the lefty to watch his language and calm down.

I told the store manager that the man was an embarassment and should have been escorted off the premises. But she said nothing. So I told her she just lost a customer. All I wanted was a book !! lol

My daughter brought a copy from the local library where it was hiding on a low shelf.

An admirable goal it is...

It took me several book stores to find Ollie North's book War Stories.

Costco. Friday lunchtime. Big stack. No problem. Bought a hotdog on the way out.
