To the freep who put the Larry McMurtry book in front of Al Franken's book

[Lex]

at the SuperTarget in Durham, NC: I moved it out of the front of Franken's book and put it in front of Sean Hannity's Moronic Book.

So bite me, asshole.


(Just sayin'.)

1. I arrange books all the time..

I move them from the bottom shelf to eye level..and put the RW books on the bottom shelf. LOL

[Shopaholic]

2. I don't know how it happens but

every single time I'm in Target, Hannity & O'Reilly books seem to end up covered by Michael Moore & Al Franken's books. . . .I can't imagine how that happens.:evilgrin:

[Lex]

4. It was *so obvious* that a freeper-type had put a bunch of

Larry McMurtry books in front of Al Franken's book. Just when I wasn't thinking about how much I despise them, then *BLAM*, there are those books obviously moved to obscure Franken's book.

:grrrrr:

10. Heh, me, too, using liberal authors' books to cover right wingers' all the

time! Wonder if the bookstore employees notice.

[ET Awful]

3. That reminds me . . . to the dolt that used copies of Unfit for Command

to cover up all the copies of My Life, Unfit Commander, and both of Moore's new books on the book table at Costco, kiss my white hairy ass, your petty bullshit simply proves your ignorance and dishonesty.

5. Not entirely sure reading a McMurtry book would make a ...

RepubliBorg feel any better. McMurtry's fairly populist, and there's lots of that stuff they like to call 'moral relativism' in his stuff. That might be almost as bad as just reading Franken, for most of them!

[Taverner]

6. Most Freepers read "Lonesome Dove" and long for that world

Even though it was a bloody, dangerous and chaotic one...

The irony is that McMurty was not trying to glorify the cowboy life with that book but to show how vicious it was...

[Philostopher]

17. Hell, yeah -- even the TV miniseries couldn't gloss over that.

It was the motivations of the characters that really counted.

[JanMichael]

9. And Gus is practically a socialist anyway.

No need to look up quotes but he's a pre-20th century Lefty.

[Philostopher]

18. You're right -- and most of McMurtry's main characters ...

are, though somewhat self-involved, basically kind to others, including the characters in Lonesome Dove.

[Zomby Woof]

11. McMurtry is a lefty

He defended Clinton's memoirs in a review when just about everyone else scuttled it. You can get the gist of his politics from the review.

[Philostopher]

19. You could barely read his books and not know that.

One of my favorites is one that's very hard to find -- ever read 'Cadillac Jack?' I think that was the second one of his I read. Great book, even though his technique improved later on. The main character was one of my favorites he ever created.

7. I just put the covers upside-down and backwards,

then hang around and see how many of the illiterate bastards try to pretend they're reading them that way

[murielm99]

12. Put the jackets of the conservative books on the liberal

books.

Most freepers are so stupid, they would get halfway through one of Franken or Moore's books before they caught on.

[qnr]

15. wow, stealth indoctrination - I like it :) n/t

[GingerSnaps]

8. Sex Ed books works for me

I find one that has orgasm or some other sexual word on the front cover and I place it in front of the rethugs books. :evilgrin:

[tanyev]

14. Ooh, ooh!

Put it just underneath the top book so when they pick it up to look at it they will get a surprise. :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

[Goathead]

13. I do that too!

I put Hillary's book in front of Anne Coulter's book's. I think that it is hilarious.

[GingerSnaps]

16. Sex Changes for Ann Coulters books & Perverts for O'Liely books

:evilgrin:

[Flammable Materials]

20. That's okay, I 86'd "FahrenHYPE 911" at Best Buy

I walked in the store the week that F911 came out on DVD. EVERYWHERE there were F911 discs on display, someone had dropped a copy of "FahrenHYPE 911" next to it like a freshly laid turd.

I scanned through the store, locating each copy and creatively locating it where it would not be found until the next inventory.

[morillon]

21. Not saying you SHOULD do this, but...

What if you took one of Hannity's (or Coulter's, O'Reilly's, etc.) books and "accidentally" reshelved it in a part of the bookstore (or book department) that gets virtually no traffic or where it'll get a good laugh?

My only hesitation in making this a regular habit is that I'd hate to cause more work for those nice people who work at the bookstore.
