there’s no doubt that Palin discussed (a discussion she’s
subsequently labeled “rhetorical”) banning books with the City’s
librarian, the book list below canNOT be attributed to Palin. Its origins
seems to be this:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span class=ecapple-style-span><span style='color:black'>Let's
spend a few moments browsing the list of books Mayor Sarah Palin tried to get
town librarian Mary Ellen Baker to ban in the lovely, all-American town of
Wasilla, Alaska. When Baker refused to remove the books from the shelves,
Palin threatened to fire her. The story was reported in Time Magazine and
the list comes from the librarian.net website.</span></span><span
style='color:black'><br>
<br>
<span class=ecapple-style-span>I'm sure you'll find your own personal favorites
among the classics Palin wanted to protect the good people of Wasilla from, but
the ones that jumped out at me were the four Stephen King novels (way to go
Stephen, John Steinbeck only got three titles on the list), that notorious
piece of communist pornography "My Friend Flicka," the usual
assortment of Harry Potter books, works by Shakespeare, Walt Whitman, Kurt
Vonnegut, Mark Twain (always fun to see those two names together), Arthur
Miller, and Aristophanes, as well as "Our Bodies, Ourselves" (insert
your own Bristol Palin joke here), and the infamous one-two punch of
depravity: "To Kill a Mockingbird" and "Little Red Riding Hood."
But the cherry on the sundae, the topper, is Sarah Palin's passionate,
religious mission to clear the shelves of the Wasilia Public Library of that
ultimate evil tome: "Webster's Ninth New Collegiate
Dictionary." That's the one with " equality," "free
speech" and "justice " in it.</span><br>
<br>
<span class=ecapple-style-span>Go over to your book case and take down one of
the books you'll find on the list (I know you've got a couple) and give it a
read in honor of the founding fathers. Then tell me I'm not the only
voter who doesn't want this woman within thirty feet of the United States
Constitution. </span><br>
