Barnes & Noble Website Carries Altered Cover of Anti-Kerry Book
Human Events Online ^

Posted on 08/09/2004 1:45:22 PM PDT by freespirited

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.

Despite all of our efforts, they continue on with their machinations.

The Media Research Council needs it's own cable network.

The cool thing is these bias machines in the MSM know we're alive, the bad thing is they don't give a dman.

No kiddin'! I hope nobody's foolish enough to use B&N secure online ordering after seeing how easily they're hacked by an apparent insider.

It's moved up to number 7 from 8 during all of this.

It's number 2 on Amazon. I wonder why there is a difference.

I plan on buying my copy of this book from B&N.

I think it is quite entertaining to plop my book down on the counter and loudly talk about how excited I am to finally get to read the book. When doing this, I plan to loudly announce a few facts I had read that were detailed by O'Neill.

If the cashier gives me grief about my purchase I get to call the manager and loudly complain how shabbily I've been treated.

I saw this first hand last December when I was there buying presents. I looked everywhere for a copy of Treason, and found ONE COPY, tucked away in the politics section. It could've been the last copy, but I doubt it. At the desk the clerk didn't say one word to me beyond the initial Hi (He must've really despised me, I was buying a copy of Starship Troopers too).

Then you send the name of the metal wearing metro sexual clerk and manager who abused you to the board of B&N. Ask them to clean up their act or get turned into the SEC for wasting $'s for political reasons instead of business reasons.

But he's got progressively more heinous as he's gone along. If he reunited the original Van Halen and cured the common a$$hole, I would still vote against him.
