My copy of the book came this morning and I finished it just a minute ago. While I have read much of the info here at FR, there is new (to me) info and the cumulative effect is devastating to John F'n Kerry.
I've read the entire article a second time now and I STILL cannot find any mention of the 'seventh' printing that you are chastising me for not knowing about. Please show me where that is in this article. Thanks.
Then let's put the whole thing to bed...Mr Kerry, sign the Form 180 and release all your military and medical records
Suspicions, sure. But it is bad for business for them to involve their bookstores in a political campaign. They make money from selling books on both sides of the aisle, not to mention the simple fact that "conservatives" probably tend to buy more books, music, and magazines, so why risk alienating at least half of their customer base?
Those CEOs would be booted so fast if they involved their politics in their business. Or rather, they'd be booted if they were caught.
So the question is if there is a memo stating that liberal, bush bashing books be given prominence over conservative, Kerry bashing books. If so, that memo should be outed to the board of directors and the shareholders.
Regnery seems to have screwed up Big Time on this one, by vastly underestimating the demand. They had better keep their presses running night and day.
Are we supposed to take his word on this, or should he just produce an X-Ray with his medical records? With all the windsurfing, biking & other yuppie sports, I'd say that that "shrapnel" is definitely a non-factor.
What "ani-Kerry" book? It is a book that tells the truth about a chapter in Nam. What business does AP have in characterizing the intent of a book for us? I understand that many AP folks are working for the CIA and Mossad in the middle-east and this gives them cover, but at least, let's pretent to have some objectivity. What was that hilarious phrase the Oliphant used the other night, "meet minimal journalistic integrity standards," yeah that was it. Funniest thing I've heard in years!!
And rice still in his ass from playing with high explosives. Would his medical records show he was stoned while doing that?
I am heading out that way and will see if they do have it or not. I will report back after I return
Okeydoke....:)
Naturally, there were copies aplenty of Clinton's book, Moore's books, and a wall of several other books trashing Bush. All prominently displayed near the entrance to the store, some in a special section called 'New Releases'. We did find, in the appropriate sections further back, but not in the 'New Releases', copies of books by Peggy Noonan, Ben Stein, Michelle Malkin and Laura Ingraham. At least 3 of these were new or recent releases, certainly as new as Clinton's or Moore's, but apparently undeserving of prominent display.
Concur. Does he set off the metal detector at the airport. Does he need to bring medical proof to the airport each time he flies, like my friend with "real" shrapnel in his leg?
Bookstore Employees LIE About UNFIT FOR COMMAND in Nashville
They sure did. The entire country is talking about this book and how demand has stripped bookstores clean across the fruited plain. Regnery must just be sick with remorse.
Okay, that's my sarcasm quotient for today.
I went to our local BAMM today to pick up my copy. When I checked out, the young lady said she had her copy and was going to start reading it tonight.
That doesn't dispute my premise. I do think that lower level employees are bringing partisan politics to their job. I don't think this is being orchestrated by the corporate office.
I've said before that if anyone runs into someone spouting lies like the employee in that link, we should get their name and submit a complaint to corporate. This is something that can hurt corporate and I'm sure corporate would like to know if employees are making official sounding statements and claims, without official sanction.
The store managers should also be turned in if they are doing the same. The power of the complaint, and if we do this right, more conservative and fair managers will be in place and conservative books will get equal prominent placement as befits their sales status, not the opinion of the manager.
Just paid top price at AMAZON to not have to wait 5-7 weeks for delivery
