Now pull the other leg.
Tereza H. and her book burners are probably buying up all stocks they can get their hands on. On the other hand, Hillary and her cohorts are probably donating money to get more copies into print.
My local Amazon (Montclair, CA) just got a fresh batch in today.
BS. They should threaten to fire those associates that misled buyers....I heard several lies on people walking in to buy the book.
What's ths score now? Something like Kerry - 16 Swift Vets 254?
At the local Border's book store I noticed that 'Unfit' was nowhere to be found. I mentioned this and their story was that it was 'sold out and on backorder' ...
Which one of B&N's employees changed their cover photo and title on their website?
I thought if you made money, by selling books, you were profitable.
"Riggio said Barnes & Noble would not remove any title from its shelves, nor does it have any political agenda."
I haven't shopped at the local B&N since just after 9/11. B&N sponsored a book tour by Bill Ayers, head of the Weathermen (domestic terrorists of the radical Left), just days after 9/11. The form letter I received in response to my complaint read like a PR piece for him! Shortly after, when I was in the store looking for Barbara Olson's last book, and told the clerk that I couldn't find it, his response was "Oh, really!" No offer to look for it, order it, nada. By the way, Riggio is a BIG contributor to the Dems.

Unfit for Command (book sales in Bay Area)

Went into Barnes & Noble (Emeryville CA) to see if they had Unfit for sale and displayed.
WOW - The store has had 2 shipments in and both were sold out within HOURS!. They are expecting another shipment in within days.
So I called around to the major bookstores in the Peoples Republic of the Bay Area. Most have not received any books yet and are miffed because they are missing out on a big profit item. Very large demand and the attitude of the staff I talked with was positive for the book.
Those that had received them are sold out.
Most expect their allotment in a few days and expect to be sold out quickly - I am amazed with the demand here in the BA. I mean - MoveOn HQ is just a couple miles from where I live.
There may be hope for us in CA yet.
No mention that some of the complaints that Barnes & Noble received were over the false title and graphic on the website.
Even after the "hack" was corrected, the incorrect image REMAINED on the B&N server for days (a week?) afterwards.
Some FReepers have also mentioned that they have been treated rudely by clerks when they inquired about the book.
I went to my local Barnes & Noble today to buy the Swiftvet book. It was nowhere to be found, but the lady at the info desk was very nice. She said they sold out rapidly and she put me on a list to get a copy when the next shipment comes in. She even took my home & work phone number and promised to call me when it arrives. I don't know about stores elsewhere, but I think it was simply a case of the demand for the book being greater than expected. I had no reason to think they were trying to squash the book or anything like that. They had a big table filled with political books. Most of them bashed Bush, but they also had pro-Bush books there, too. It's just that there simply are more anti-Bush books on the market.
I spent 7$ MORE to buy it B&N....just to increase their numbers on the book. It was worth it....2 other 'military' type guys had copies when I was checking out. The clerks did not seem amused by the interest in the book....or it's implications. sad, so sad.
What are there now, a dozen? How many of the vets who are supporting Kerry were members of VVAW?
I just got a copy ordered from Conservative Book Service.

I called Regnery today since my local Borders has not been able to stock it. Regnery said it's shipping and has plenty of books.
The B&N here in Beavercreek, Ohio told me it wouldn't be out till mid September a couple of weeks ago so I got it on Amazon.
LOL. Squirm, Pinkos!!!
