A backlash against the move is happening especially on Facebook. Boycott being urged.

Costco owner is big Obama supporter.

I just read on Facebook that Costco has changed it's mind and will restock the book.

CEO found out about it on the news, just like Obama.

Said it was localized to the Cincinnati Costco location only-manager went rogue.

Regional management thought about sending resources to make sure books were not pulled, but decided against it because there was a lot of traffic and there would be no way to get there in time.

I'd venture a guess it's not as effective as the Costco backlash

I love how, in the day and age where we are more connected than we have ever been in history, none of these people are in touch with each other.

From what I understand about this, it was because of a video on YouTube.

Has anyone checked his e-mails?

I'm pretty sure that was sarcasm directed at the IRS's mess.
