Ramesh, maybe you should start your get-together at Borders: everyone walking in at once asking for Unfit for Command. Here’s an e-mail:
Hi Kathryn:
Living in San Francisco, I’m rarely surprised by anything anti-Bush. Last weekend, I went to three different bookstores (B. Dalton, Waldenbooks, and a local store called Green Apple) before finally finding Unfit for Command at Borders. The catch? Someone had turned all of the copies around, so that they were facing backwards. Plus, there were only about 10 on display, in contrast with the umpteen copies of My Life and Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them (didn’t that book come out like 2 years ago?).
Anyway, I turned the copies back around, bought one (no snarky comment from the cashier, although it was a busy Saturday), and went about my day. And donated another few bucks to the Swiftees.
Keep up the great work on NRO — it helps to keep me sane out here!
