Barnes and Noble supports Limbaugh
I am wondering if anyone else would be willing to end shopping at Barnes and Noble as long as they are advertising on Rush Limbaugh's website.

Am I the only one who understands how Google ads works?

Sorry--I have more important things to be outraged about, and B&N is a good employer (I'm a former employee) and 100% Blue.

Thanks anyhoo.

2. Agree. They are far better than Amazon for online book orders because they are so blue. nt

4. Interesting. Someone's spreading talking points? Barnes and Noble is BLUE.
I love shopping there.

There and Half Price Books & Records.

9. I think you invested well. Borders is in financial trouble due to an ill-advised Amazon partnership
too.

5. Barnes & Noble is thoroughly blue.
These ad buys are done in bulk. The OP is nonsense.

8. Perhaps it's more issues than that
Yes your experience in life is exactly like mine and perhaps just perhaps it's more than just this issue I deal with. my local B&N has started buying in bulk creationist books and filling up the science section with them. So I really don't feel the desire to buy from them. Corporate might be great and BLUE but my one right around the corner is starting to lean RIGHT. That and trying to force discount cards on me every visit has me sick of the company. Every man has a breaking point. In reality most RW books are bought in bulk and sit in warehouses to be given away as door gifts to fundie events. So why these stores buy so many to sit on their store self for months I'll never understand?

oh here's a liitle eye roll for you :eyes:

10. Perhaps your GF should investigate how Amazon does business with ultra-red Borders.
And that's just a start--their top ten bestsellers are driven by publisher reports--including ultra-ultra RW Regnery and Thomas J. Nelson...
