Will Kerry's supporters stop at nothing?
The cover of the new anti-Kerry book, Unfit for Command, set to hit shelves soon, has been given an alternative, pro-Kerry cover at the Barnes & Noble online store. The title of the book has been changed to Fit for Command, and the cover image has been changed from a close-up of a finger-pointing Kerry to a picture of Kerry in uniform with other Vietnam veterans. (The book currently sits at #7 on the Barnes & Noble Top 100 and at #2 on Amazon.)
The book, which challenges the "war hero" status of John Kerry's four months in Vietnam, was a part of a major firestorm last week as portions of the book were first revealed by The Drudge Report and a new anti-Kerry advertisement from the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth -- a "527" group of which the author of Unfit, John O'Neill, is a member -- was first reported by Human Events Online. Following the Human Events exclusive, a letter from DNC and Kerry lawyers to various TV stations attempting to intimidate them into blocking the ad from the airwaves was also exclusively revealed by Human Events Online.
Though no information on the source of the cover change has been found, the latest tactic from the pro-Kerry crowd -- whether from a computer hacker or an employee of Barnes & Noble -- can hardly be considered surprising.

This is just more bad news for Kerry. Everyone will be talking about the site hacking drawing attention to the real story of Vets saying he is UNFIT for COMMAND.
Kerry can play with his corn, his guitar, his cycle, his wang....But he has NO MESSAGE.
WOW! This changes everything. Gonna vote for him now.
B&N has taken down the picture now.
the photo is gone now
Bravo Sierra!! They had the correct cover on their website for days!!
And the altered cover is on display at B & N stores?
The cover has been changed at the B & N site- to the original one...although I'm sure many of us c/p the page ...I love campaign souveniers, don't you? :)

They corrected the photo

Come to think of it, I do, too. LOL.
That action had become so reflexive that I hadn't realized I've been doing it... until you mentioned it.
Kerry's manner of speaking is mind-numbing.
He should have considered a career as a hypnotist.
WOW.
It sure does.
Bastards.
Someone's head should roll.
Good thing I already bought my copy of Hugh's great book!
