Let's see, there are seven weeks to go till the election. If we all buy one or two books a week we can keep it on the top of the charts! Give them to your friends and family members who are undecided or who need a kick in the pants to get out and vote.
UFC continues to be #1 on Amazon

I bought the book, donated $25 two weeks ago and another $25 yesterday as per email request from the Swifties. Best money I ever spent during an election cycle! May God continue to bless....those of you with a direct line to God, please ask for mercy concerning the arrival of Ivan.

Got my copy at Costco this past weekend. There were only 3 copies available and now one of them is mine. As contrast, there were at least 3 huge stacks of Clinton's book of lies. I noticed a few people with Unfit for Command in their shopping carts - none of the Clinton book.
>>If we all buy one or two books a week we can keep it on the top of the charts!
AARG! If we could all FIND a copy. My local Borders and B Dalton are still without it. They said that every one that they've gotten so far has gone to people who've put their names on a list. I'm on the list waiting! :(
I've had one copy nearly a month ago from Amazon already, so I don't need one for myself, and have since sent that copy to my brother who's in the service, stationed at GTMO. But I sure wish my local bookstores would get their act together!
When I went through the checkout line with my copy of UFC, the cashier commented that this book must be really hot. He had not seen a book sell so well in all his time at Costco.
Anyone have a link to NYT reporting it as #1 on its list?
Go Swifties! I've donated twice and will again the 1st of the month. IMHO Kerry should have to resign from the Senate and face charges by the time this plays out.
1. UNFIT FOR COMMAND, by John E. O'Neill and Jerome R. Corsi
2. AMERICAN SOLDIER, by Tommy Franks with Malcolm McConnell
3. MY LIFE, by Bill Clinton
4. BUSHWORLD, by Maureen Dowd
5. EATS, SHOOTS & LEAVES, by Lynne Truss
My Costco had American Soldier too. There were significantly more copies of Clintons' book available than Tommy Franks too. It makes me smile to think that O'Neill and Franks will receive more royalties than Clinton (or their designated charities will receive the money).
Where do you buy it? The two bookstores in my hometown don't have it and claim that they can't get it.
I saw it at Sam's today. They have a big stack. There is a new cover now - yellow strip that says NYT Best Seller on upper right corner.
Its #2 now behind "Treachery : How America's Friends and Foes Are Secretly Arming Our Enemies". Kitty Litter's book is now up to #3 on Amazon.
