So I go to Barnes and Noble tonite. I despise the store but I have a gift certificate from Christmas and I thought I would use it to buy Michael Savage's best Seller "Savage Nation". (It's currently #1 on the New York Times Best Seller List.)
So I'm in the store with the Missus and we don't see the book anywhere. Not in front with the best sellers nor in the back in the Current Affairs section.
So I think, "This liberal book store is suppressing the sale of a popular conservative book by hiding it from the public." A not uncommon practice as Ann Coulter describes in her own book, "Slander".
I finally go the the information desk and ask where I could find a copy of "Savage Nation."
The lady looks puzzeled for a moment, then says "we don't carry it."
I feign shock and say "You don't carry the number one best seller!!"
She then checks something on her computer terminal and says "I could order it for you - could get it here in three days."
"No thank you, I'll find it at Books-A-Million."
So my Richmond FRiends, I need you all to go to Barnes & Noble and ask for "Savage Nation". Force them to put conservative books on the shelves.
I am not surprised you had problems w/ B&N. Back when Sammon's book came out about Al Gore's attempted theft of the 2000 election, I had to look high and low to find it at the B&N out by me. It was pretty frustrating. I have 2 gift certificates that I need to use - I think I'll stick to buying music (I'm always looking for music for skating programs) or DVD's and skip trying to use it on books.
I used to belong to Book-of-the-Month club. I recently cancelled my membership w/them because they didn't have Hannity's book.
The bias is pervasive. It's full-time job trying to root it out. It's like kudzu.
BTW, how's your Dad? Has he had his surgery yet? How are YOU holding up?
