Amazon.com Unintentional Humor
Posted by Duncan on October 12th, 2008
From an email I just received:
Dear Amazon.com Customer,
We’ve noticed that customers who have purchased or rated The Revolution: A Manifesto by Ron Paul have also purchased Suddenly Blind Adult (SBA), Suddenly Disabled Adult (SDA), and Suddenly Ill Adult (SIA) Survivor’s Guide: The Emancipation Proclamation for Independent Living by Dr. Scott Bray. For this reason, you might like to know that Suddenly Blind Adult (SBA), Suddenly Disabled Adult (SDA), and Suddenly Ill Adult (SIA) Survivor’s Guide: The Emancipation Proclamation for Independent Living is now available. You can order yours for just $15.00 by following the link below.
Makes me kinda wonder exactly how many people who bought Ron Paul’s book decided to buy these other books. What kind of numbers would it take for Amazon to send out a mass emailing to people like me. Or possibly is this some kinda slam again Dr. Paul. I dunno. But its pretty humorous nonetheless.

That is weird….but consider Paul’s anti abortion stance, and his respect for disabled children and it makes sense. Maybe Amazon is trying to get people who read Paul’s book which included his abortion thoughts, read books about the “risks” and “results” (disabled) of unwanted pregnancies.
I dunno.
