You have got to be kidding me. Please someone tell me this is a prank or a joke.

Doesn’t this mean the White House can not receive any “stimulus” money?

Important to read what you sign, dingbats.

A local non-profit University’s library has a continuing display in their front window. The name of the display is “new books at __ Univ.”

I am willing to bet that every Redstater knows what type of titles the worthy University’s library highlights in their front window,

Most titles are “social” science PC crap and just what you would expect from the namesake president whose likeness festoons multiple hallways.

Freudian Slip? that they would place a book about growing up behind the Iron Curtain of a boy who idolizes the greatness of western culture next to a firm believer in socialism.

I wanna see you on the Steps of the Capital!!!!

Get on fox and give em Heck!!!!!

(1) this idiotic display or (2) that there are at least six children’s books published about a guy who’s been in office for 15 minutes. I mean, really, are bookstore’s in Hamburg filled with aisles and aisles of books titled “The Angela Mekel Story”? Please.

In order to believe that this isn’t some kind of shopped photo, I’d like to see someone go in and capture this on video. Seriously. If this is an actual store in Dallas there should be no problem with someone in this readership taking a trek down to it with a video camera or even the movie capture feature on their digital camera and make it 100% hoax-proof.

If it’s true, it’s seriously disturbing. It’s even more disturbing that the featured display of that section contains no other books actually pertaining to religion. What would make it less disturbing and actually funny is if the owner of the store is a conservative and set that up to make a statement.

Famous Kenyans?

There has been some debate on this thread as to the authenticity of the photo itself or whether the arrangement of the books under the “religion” sign was the work of pranksters.

Please do not let said debate get in the way of the funny.

Which this is. Very.

I work as an Inventory Process Specialist at a Borders Books, so I have some personal insight into these kind of things:

1) The signs are fixed, not interchangable, and no one at the store level has the authority to attempt to such a change.

2) The location of such signs vary from store to store and are related to where sections were located when the store first opened. However, over time, sections have to be expanded, condensed, or shifted in response to demand and changing quantities of titles.

3) Display formats like this are made at the corporate level and sent to the Merchandise Manager, who is responsible for then setting it up. However, because sign locations are not standard, corporate had no way of knowing that the Obama display would go under the religion sign, and the Merch team has little flexibility. They could shift the display bays slightly, but not much, and as I noted above, the overhead signs cannot be taken down. To move the Obama display from out under the Religion sign would necessitate the moving something else into that space, and risk a reprimand from higer ups. In this economy, why take a chance of getting fired over a display that will come down in a few weeks?

I would chalk this one up to an unfortunate circumstance, and not corporate malfeasance.
