its the same story at barnes and noble

On the other hand, I was in the B&N in Santa Monica last weekend--as liberal a bastion as you can find--and they had "Unfit" front and center in the store, on its own table with lots of copies.

The Barnes & Noble over by me has always been a good place to buy. I've never seen where they were hiding anything or trying to damage conservative books. I've bought two Ann Coulter books there and as new releases they were featured prominently towards the front on the Bestsellers' area. And the employees have always been quite nice - even when paying for books like 'Hillary's Secret War' and Sean Hannity's latest book when I could tell that the guy or girl at the register had about as much in common with me politically as I do with... oh say a duckbilled platypus.

well, i guess it all depends on the lot who run the stores and the workers who move the books around. I suppose it cannot all be the fault of the parent company.

But still, i am suspicious of b and noble because of the fact the website had "fit for command" up.

and to be fair, if i was a bookstore manager i would not have an al franken book up front and center. Although, i would not destroy the copies of the books. That is illegal.
