"Unfit for Command": A Review Posted by McQ
Ive read Unfit for Command. Thats the easy part. Since then Ive been struggling to find a way to explain why this is so important to many of us out here to those who dont find it to be important.

I just called my local Barnes and Noble to ask AGAIN when they will have it. The guy was very snippy and said that it was supposed to be September 1st, but it MAY come in earlier. I said, I can't believe you don't know when it's going to come in. I was told alot of people have been asking for it. He got all pissy and repeated, verbatim, what he said the first time and added, IT'S A SMALL PUBLISHER. I said, "it's not a small publisher, you have many books in your store from this publisher. He let out a big sigh. I told him I have his name and I am coming tomorrow to speak to the manager.
review of "unfit for command"
He might actually be right. I hear the book is in its 4th printing BECAUSE OF ACTUAL ORDERS. The local shops may be having trouble getting it.
I had a similar experience at my Barnes and Noble. They told me it was Sept 2st and that a lot of people had been asking for the book. I went in person and the obviously lefty staff was very uncomfortable.
Cute one! I'm still catching up on 40 some replies, LOL. I figure if I just ping them all a couple of times I can get off easy!

I ordered our copy on Barnes and Noble on line. It arrived yesterday (ordered 7/29). I d/n have to deal with any prissy, petulant left leaning types. I am too old and too disgusted with this nonsense to put up with book store types with their knickers in a knot! My apologies to any bookstore clerks, owners, etc.--I am in a bad mood. My husband got to read "Unfit for Command" first--he won the toss!
Did you see the Canteen thread with all the music?
I started shouting in the Wichita Barnes and Noble the other day.
I normally keep my cool in public, but this lady set me off.
I asked her about when she would have it in. She then read a statement she had that it was published by a publisher known for publishing "books with a definite right-wing bent" and that it would not be published until Aug 15.
Let me tell you.......that just set me off. Especially because right next to it on the desk were these anti-Bush bumper stickers in a booklet.
I just ripped into her.....people started staring at my yelling about how they stuck all the liberal books at front and then dare to attack Regenery and claiming to be non-partisan while having anti-Bush bumper stickers on the customer service desk for sale.
I am sorry.....I exploded very quickly.
Amazon still says the publishing date is not until Aug 15, but then how the heck is it already out? It was supposedly out last week and members of the general public are getting copies.
