Well some dufus in the Costco book department seems to have stepped in it big time.  Talk about being ill informed and ideological.  But no, this isn't censorship.  You can get the book at a multitude of other places.  This is just a dumb business decision that will cost Costco tens of millions of dollars as many of their customers will go elsewhere.  But over time they will be back because regardless of the leftist leanings of their CEO they provide good products at competitive prices.  And unlike left wing nuts and far too many on the right these days I am not going to boycott them although I will think twice about a purchase there if I can get it elsewhere.  But I buy from Amazon all the time and they are run by leftists. There are better ways to get the message out........just let them try their failed ideology every 25 or 30 years and that pretty much takes care of it.

Interestingly, I went to costco.com today and their site seems to be down.  I know they have been inundated by complaints and it makes me wonder if they crashed or took the site down to wait out the furor they have created. Probably a smart idea if its the latter although it could cost them in sales.

Someone at Costco had a National  promotion on Hillary Clinton's book . They were giving one free with a Slurpee. No one wanted the book but they ran out of Slurpees. Cherry was the favorite flavor.

John, that's cool. Billary is viewed in the same way as George Washington. He cut down the cherry tree and told the truth and Billary tells the truth and sells cherry slurpees.

Billary in 2016.....................

you get your news from HuffnPuff and pmsmBS........some moron at Costco decided to pull Dinesh D'Souza's book about America the week before the movie opened in 1,000 theaters.  They claimed it was because of a lack of sales but they have other political books front and center that are selling worse but have not been pulled.  Obviously done either at the request of the CEO (a TOTUS butt buddy) or to try to suck up to him.  The excrement hit the fan and they reversed course.  Not much of a rant in the first place.......

Honestly GF, you really need to expand your horizons beyond left ing nuts outlets........you are the quintessential low information voter.

My leftist vote cancels out your highly educated 1%er vote. That should make your day.

BILLARY 2016............
