Dear Friends,
In 2004, Amazon.com gave 61% of its political donations to Republicans! It seems strange to me that a bookseller should support the party of fundamentalists, creationists, bookbanners and privacy-violators, but that is unfortunately the case. Click here for details: http://www.freenortheast.com/ltred.php .
You can send Amazon a protest e mail by going to http://www.amazon.com/contact-us .
Good on-line alternatives to Amazon are Barnes & Noble, which is on the "good list" of blue companies at http://www.projectbluechristmas.com and Powell's. And don't forget your local independent book store! If they don't have the book you want in stock, they may be able to order it.
Have a Blue Christmas,
Katha Pollitt
