When Michael Huttner and Jason Salzman's book, 50 Ways You Can Help Obama Change America, hit the book stands September 1st, the admittedly left-wing authors had high hopes of dislodging conservative books from Glenn Beck, Mark Levin, Michelle Malkin and others from Best Seller lists they have dominated for months. The 50 ways guide was publicized with glowing reviews from Hollywood celebrities and even the late Senator Ted Kennedy. At the Huffington Post, they have even offered a trip to Hawaii contest as an promotion for pushing sales. But alas, one week after the hyped release of the book, it appears that there is not as much interest in helping President Obama change America as the liberal authors had hoped. In fact, to put it simply, the book is bombing.

But bombing may be an understatement. Although it will...

Our County Library has 13 holds for Glenn’s book and the book is on order. I’m number 13.

Amazon already has slashed the price to $7.77 (hoping for a jackpot that won’t come)?

Conclusion: Liberals can’t read! /sarcasm

Probably more like they don’t read...rely on the “boob tube” for their news and information.

The “50 ways” book sounds like something you’d have to pay people to read, not something that would sell.

With apologies to Paul Simon, how about “50 ways to leave your overlord?”

Very true. I have a copy of Bastiat’s “The Law” that I’ve loaned to a dozen conservatives. They all read it in a day or two and returned it. I loaned it to two liberals and they each kept it for more than a week and eventually returned it, saying “I never finished it. It was just too much to read.”

It’s less than 100 pages long! I also have a copy of “The Communist Manifesto” and it was the same. Conservatives read it. Libs didn’t. It’s only 50 pages!

That's awfully expensive for toilet paper.

Wait until Sarah Palin releases her book. That is the Tsar Bomba of book releases.

Conservatives read it. Libs didn’t.

The same seems to be true on both the left and right coasts USA.

“50 Ways” is currently ranked #94 at Amazon; below such books as “Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders DSM-IV-TR “ at #92 and “A Writer’s Reference with 2009 MLA Update” at #93. To paraphrase Mark Twain, once you put the book down, you can’t pick it up.

It won’t be long until having engaged in Obama sycophancy will be something nobody, not even Hollywood stars, will want to admit to. He’s so yesterday.

I'm hoping that Rush Limbaugh writes another book soon--that book will FLY off the shelves at retailers in no time flat. But still, don't you just love it when Beck's unreleased book is already a hot seller, driving the liberals nuts?

3. Send some bubble wrap to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue so
Obama can pack up his crap and get the hell out of the
White House.
