Move Bush's Book Where It Belongs - to the crime section



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

The trend that started with the release of Tony Blair's book continues.

Inspired by a British campaign which saw Tony Blair's autobiography, A Journey, appearing under crime, horror and even fantasy in UK bookshops, the protest blog Waging Nonviolence is urging its supporters to "Move Bush's Book Where It Belongs", and post pictures of the autobiography in its new location on a campaign Facebook page.

According to the campaign organiser Jasmine Faustino, Bush's memoir "defends several of the criminal policies that he implemented during his time in office, including the invasion of Iraq and the use of waterboarding". She calls on readers to "reshelve the book to where it really belongs", and "take a picture of your 'mission accomplished'".

Lyndsey German of UK anti-war group Stop the War Coalition was delighted to hear the campaign had spread to the US.
