Bill O'Lielly tops NYT Best Seller List

If you haven't bought a copy of Al Franken but intend to do so, now would be a good time to bump Bill out of the #1 position. I notice some other wingnut books have made it onto the list too. And I'm sure Michael Moore's new book will jump right in there also.

1. He's number 6 on USA Today
He got beat by both Dr. Phil and Lemony Snicket.

(Franken's at number 8)

2. I predict O'Reilly will have a one or two week run...
..before Moore's book smacks it down to #3 or 4.

3. Maybe people are buying it just to see if it's as dumb as it sounds?

4. It's the Wingnuts buying in bulk once again.
This is their MO and how they launder money to their media sluts.

5. Bulk sales influence?
There's no (+) to indicate bulk sales. Have the 'wingers found a loophole?

If you look at the sales numbers on Amazon.com (which I think is far more representative of the buying preferences of regular Americans), Franken's book is still at #5, and Bill the Bully has barely appeared in the top 10.

6. .....
They haven't found a loophole, he just pitches his book on his show every day.

10. It only takes one chart...
... for the neo-cons to have INCONTROVERTIBLE PROOF of O'Reilly's supremacy. Even if every other list showed O'Reilly languishing in the bottom 20, they'd still wave around that single list that shows him at #1.

9. Well, Riley won't last long.
It's a rule of "What the hell is he saying?" that someone would try to read his books in an attempt to figure him out.

Of course, this won't last that long, and soon the books will soon appear in used book stands by next year.

11. You say, "Rielly tops NYT Best Seller List."
I hear, "Democrats learn symbolic meaning of book burning."
