3. I wouldn't give $0.02, so they're still priced too high. |

Maybe she'll make a little more off her books when she has that "prison" cachet.

they and other rw groups actually buy the books in bulk, which is why the tardscreeds like hers and O'Liely's make it into bestseller lists.

Also, wasn't there a keen republican who thought old books could be used as body armor in schools? Maybe he could buy a bunch for his local school district.

10. So, that rumor that Rightwing Companies buying up Rightwing books just... |
|
...to get them into 1st place on Amazon, and the NYT Bestseller lists, is true.
I believe it was Al Franken who once said that the reason why reichwingers like Coulter, Hannity and O'Reilly are on top of bestseller lists is because there is a concerted effort by Republican groups to buy up the books to make it look as if America is, indeed, more conservative (aka rightwing) than progressive.

21. Bulk sales are indicated by a dagger (†) |

on the NYTimes Bestseller list.
I learned that from another DUer's post a while back.

22. Yup. A huge percentage of her sales have ALWAYS been situations like this. |
|
Some of the RW sites had this one for 5 bucks the week it came out.

You couldn't give me copy of any of Ann's books.

17. Good for wobbly tables or chairs |

Don't waste money buying new furniture when the old is wobbly when Ann Coulter's books are around.

18. Hmmm, seems some people rigged the |
|
bestsellers list. How could it go from bestseller to trash heap prices in one month? It spent 12 weeks on the top 10 bestsellers list and now it is practically free? What happened?

I have the equivalent of Ann Coulter's collected works in my bathroom on a roll.

25. But you'd miss out on the four free issues of NewsMax! |

Don't you want the dirt on how Mexicans are taking over the country and how Hillary is going to turn our democracy into a lesbian dictatorship?

26. That WOULD be unfortunate. |

That's true...I would be missing those scintillating articles about Hillary forcing her "lesbian agenda" on America. Ah, well...I can go to Free Republic for more of the same, I guess. :puke:
