Un-freeping my book store. |
|
Was out shopping today and stopped in the bookstore. Imagine my surprise when I was in the "political aisle" and couldn't find "Lying Liars" or Hillary's book anywhere. After looking closely I found them, hidden ebhind a couple copies of Bill O'rieliy's trash, in front of "Liars" and "Treason" in front of Hillary. I did of course fix the situation. I did not, however, return the favor by covering the conservative books in question. I disapprove of sinking to their level. besides, covering up the truth is their tactic. Not one I think we should be using.

1. Of course, if you did it |
|
It wouldn't be considered covering up the truth. It would be more like spraying some carpet cleaner on the pile of cat shit in your bathroom floor. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some cat shit to clean up.

3. It's okay, you acted from emotion. |
|
Anyway, it's hard to apply high principles when dealing with the warmongering, murderous liars we have to have "rational" discussions with in this country. We forgive you.

Did you misread the post? It stated that the poster remedied the cover-up of the Franken and Clinton books, but did not retaliate in kind.

4. Rather childish of them |
|
I found all of Hillary's books turn over the last time I was shopping. I, too, refuse to stoop to that level.

...putting Hannity's book in the fiction section at Barnes & Noble. He was embarrassed when I came upon him doing this, but I just laughed and said, "Good job," and he continued on.

I "fix" every bookstore that I am in
Take all the liberal books and face them out and turn all the conservative books spine out. Just try and make sure that no employees are around -- they frown on that behavior

I went to my local book store to buy "Lying Liars" and after I had already bought the book the clerk pulled out a pretty nice book mark and gave it to my, when I said thank you she said " I wouldn't want you to lose your place in that pile of crap."

12. Should have turned around and negated the sale |
|
then went straight to her manager with a complaint, and then written the head of the company.
That kind of thing does really matter, in the long run.
