This great book is hitting the bookstores in force. Folks are no doubt getting their Amazon.com deliveries. The newspapers are beginning to take up the story of the SWIFTVETS.

Here is an idea to get the word out even more at the grassroots level in America. Spread the world about "UNFIT FOR COMMAND" in your own special way!

[AmericanInTokyo]

It will be coming to Costco, yes. (But not COSCO, the Red Chinese shipping outfit no doubt!)

You forgot to tell them that this is a poster.
Dimensions: Size: 23.0" x 32.0"

And any restrictions to make a high-quality color copy of it, in order to put on cars, etc. as the idea floated?

I am more interested in derailing Kerry's bid at this time, than in reselling the book at some time in the future.

Right click -> copy -> paste into word processor -> click -> enlarge.

[MeekOneGOP]

Oh, yeah !

[HawkeyeLonewolf]

That works too! Enjoy!

You could just put it under the windshield wiper of a car with a SKerry bumper sticker.

[OldFriend]

I'll keep carrying the book in public long after I've finished reading it.

I don't think so, if it can be done without damage. You might be surprised what this book might bring down the road, might make a good inheritence for your grandkids.

Excellent idea, AIT. You too, Spoiler2.

BTW, how's it playing in Japan?

You could just put it under the windshield wiper of a car with a SKerry bumper sticker.

New idea: I could make copies of the cover at the office and follow your advice multiple times. Only problem is that I live in conservative Orange Co, FL and work in an equally conservative area north of here and have seen probably 2 kerry stickers. Guess I could try to dodge the security at Disney and help inform some tourists.

touching other people's cars- not cool. besides, may set off an alarm.

[AmericanInTokyo]

It would have to be in Japanese in Japan to have any effect or gain any attention. I am sure it will go on sale at places like Kinokuniya in the foreigner's section (English books) but they probably won't have many copies and they may be astronomical.

You gave me an idea.

I will give the authors of that book a cut rate price to translate it into Japanese and of course find them a publisher. I might take me a good three weeks if I worked at it. I'll contact them.

Add this to the signature file of your E-mail program. Each email you send out will be labelled

Meet the real John Kerry - read UNFIT FOR COMMAND

It will spread like bush fire

FYI, here is the URL to the Amazon.com Japanese website showing new releases for NON FICTION.

You'll need a japanese browser, but even if you don't have the fonts, you'll see that for Japanese buying books from Amazon, the top book is the 9-11 report at this time.....

[Savage Beast]

Another excellent idea, AIT! Keep it up!

[nomad]

Why not just go to Kinkos and blow it up to poster size?

[ConservativeMan55]

bttt

The news is getting the story>>?? HA! Try again.

On ABC news radio at the top of the hour, they played a sound bite of EFnK's latest diatribe against them, as well as alluding to, as fact, the notion that they are funded by republicrats.

The leftist MSM gets NOTHING...ever. But I can tell you what we SHOULD give them....

Hellofanidea!
