Spotted at Barnes and Noble
I stopped by the local B&N this morning and what did my eyes behold? A stand-alone display, atop which perched an eye-catching "Choose Sides" sign. Below that were two arrows with the labels "Right" and "Left" pointing down to the books below. The Books? "Let Freedom Ring" by Hannity and "Red, White and Liberal" by Alan Colmes. Now there's a worthy rep. of the left to face off against the Scum Bag! How would the book be more convincing then the effort he makes on the air? What a fucking joke!

1. Put any other liberal author
up against Hannity, and Hannity gets his ass whoopped. I swear Colmes is like some kinda corporate conspiracy to make liberals look weak and ineffectual.

It would be different if they didn't (supposedly) represent two different sides on the same show. I can't imagine HANNITY'S book is any more articulate on his positions than colmes' is. But I can in this case understand Barnes & Noble marketing them that way.

4. Colmes is to Hannity
as the Washington Generals are to the Harlem Globetrotters.

5. Our Barnes and Noble has a display facing major street of Hillary's book.
I was shocked considering I live in Bill Thomas district and if thats not bad enough just to give you an idea of whats the people are like, on the news last nite they asked people what they thought about the Ahhnold and the Calif AG story. 3 said it was in the past and it should stay in the past and the Democrats should leave him alone. 1 said they didn't know anything about it. I don't remember any saying they were strongly in favor of an investigation into Ahhhnolds assault on women, whether it was true or not.

6. Get a marker
especially if they put "left" on the left, and Right on the right.

On Colmes's "left" sign write "Dumb"

On Hannity's "right" sign write "And Dumber"

Run for the exit once the security guard notices you!
