Amazon.com, which prohibits the public from writing personal attacks in their online book reviews, has lifted those restrictions for the anti-Kerry book ‘Unfit for Command,’ telling customers, ‘That policy in particular seems to be incompatible with presidential election year politics.

Therefore, short of obscenities, reviews on this book are now a free-for-all. … Aren’t presidential election years great? Have fun!’

Those restrictions, however, have not been lifted for John Kerry’s biography, or for the book ‘Against All Enemies,’ by Bush critic Richard Clarke, to name a couple.”

Amazon.com has taken a lot of money from me over the years, but this is just lame. Where’s the link to delete my account?
