Personally, I think when we see Palin's book in the bookstore - move it to the Fiction section
Edited on Thu Nov-19-09 04:33 PM by LynneSin
I mean, from what I've read about the book, 98% of it's fiction. Only facts I can see being real: Her name is Sarah Palin, her husband's name is Todd, she does have 5 kids, she did run for VP on the McCain ticket, she was a mayor of Wasilla and Governor of Alaska.

Above and beyond that I hold just about everything else suspect!

2. or, alternatively,
take it up to the clerk and politely tell them you found this work of fiction in the political section and they might want to rectify that.

3. Don't give this prankster any ideas.
I was thinking of going to the local Barnes and Noble and demanding that they put it in the "New Fiction" section. Maybe I'll bypass asking them, and just do it myself!
WTF -- It's only gonna end up in the bargain bins in a couple of months. When it's cheaper than toilet paper, THEN, and only then will I buy it.

9. You mean, we all don't do this all the time?!
My gosh, are you missing out! I like going into Borders (a Republican-supporting co., btw) and picking up a few books by Coulter and O'Reilly, say, and filing them on the proper shelves. (Coulter goes in the 'Horse' or 'Fantasy/Horror' section, O'Reilly goes to the 'True Crime' or 'Ancient History' or 'Abnormal Psychology' department. Palin.......Id probably put her in 'Foreign Lanugage.')

Talk about fun on a budget! I truly cannot believe we aren't all doing this. I can't go into a bookstore without taking some rightwinger's book 'for a walk'!

6. I like to turn the right-wing idiocy books face down at the bookstore...
...but sticking them in the fiction section would be good too!
