My wife asked the manager today if they had "Unfit for Command" and he asked her two or three times to repeat the title, like he had never heard of it. She then informed him that it was #1 on NY Times best seller's list and #1 on Amazon. He then went to the computer and it said they had 36 copies....she said show me. He was unable to find them on display, but they had plenty of Clinton's rag and also a couple of other Bush bashing books. The even had a book by Edward's. We are simply sick of this bias. My wife wishes there was a way each city could get people together to run a full page in every paper. I would definitely donate in my town....just an idea, don't know how to make it happen.

Jay, when I got purchased my copy of the book at Costco here in N.Texas, the guy at the checkout counter looked at the title and said that some lady had threatened to sue the store if they didn't sell "Unfit for Command"
I'm not the lady that did that ... but hats off to her! |

The manager of Austin Costco told me UFC is offensive to most people. I e-mail Costsco home office Ddemanding if Costco refused to sell UFC then I'll call for a conservative boycott on Costco. Costco e-mail back by the dead line I gave them and say UFC is on order now.

The Costco Chairman is a publicly known supporter of Kerry.
However, I can get the book(3) from Costco out here in Northern CAA. |

I got a response from Costco here it is. Keep in mind this book has been out for over two weeks.
Dear Jay,
Thank you for e-mailing Costco Wholesale.
In response to your email, that book is brand new to our locations and
is selling out like crazy. Please understand we are not playing
politics. We are carrying the book. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth H.
