Topic: Book Banning by Palin | |
---|---|
More and more crap. Libs just don't like it. They just said that Sarah's husband had a DUI. It was only 22 years ago! Bet if they dig further they will find that he used to crap in his diapers. I think you're his inspiration... Im waiting for the final count on all the hurricanes... |

She has stated on many occasions that she is glad that the earth is striking back at civilization and is happy especially when the tsunami hit Indonesia and Thailand. Well, if true, that's pretty fu6ked up thinking... |

well if you ask me I think Palin would be the type to take away the freedoms all of us vets have faught for, like the freedom of choice to get pregnant and a freedom of what book you could choose to read.

Guess it's not my thread, but this thread was about Palin and the specific topic of banning books. Oh yeah. Well, imo, any inquiry into banning books or attempt to do so makes someone ill-suited for an executive position in the United States of America. |

Well said. I have to have a copy of the Bill of Rights in my my classroom that was printed in the US. Wonder if she would pass my test on it? |

Well, D!ck Cheney said, "In the final analysis we will find that the Iraqis did have a robust program." So WTF are they? Got nothing on this, huh? Confirmed US Deaths: 4152 War in Iraq Costs: $552,077,857,154 How many deaths and cost (inflation adjusted) did we have against Hitler? Wasn't it a democrat that got us involved in that war? Did Hitler have any weapons of mass destruction? What is the death toll and ongoing cost of being in Korea? Who got us involved there? Any weapons of mass destruction found? What about Vietnam? Why do the Democrats always have us going to war in these countries so far away from the U.S. and at such a great financial and mortal cost to us? Do we really want another democrat when there are so many hot situations with Pakistan, Iran, Russia/Georgia, etc? |

BS Smokescreen... We invaded Iraq with fictional WMD's as justification. Reasons for invading Iraq as defined by George W. Bush (9/12/02) 1. To hunt down terrorists and remove any support for terrorism 2. Saddam Hussein ignored U.N. Resolutions that he initially agreed to. 3. To protect human rights 4. Iraq failed to disclose the disposition of all of it's biological weapons stockpiles 5. There were several indications that Iraq had programs in place to develop WMD's. 6. Iraq left unchecked was becoming a growing threat to the United States. http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2002/09/20020912-1.html |

I am just curious nothing else. I was on the official eh, health statistics page, but that is the only link that had an internal error... and it was tricky to find the statistics page as it was. I am more of like 'the more ya know' type of person. I'm curious why that was the only dead link- very well could of been a coincidence. Was odd all the same.. Thanks- |

1) The majority or terrorist that hit te WTC came from Saudi Arabia. Did we invade them?
2) We acted without the UN 3) We didn't give a rats behind about human rights when Saddam was gassing Kurdish people. Look at our pals the Saudi's and tell me we care about human rights. 4) Where were those weapons? So far they are undiscovered. 5) Indications that were fabricated in order to justify the invasion. 6) Given reasons 1 thru 5 what really was going on? Korea is a growing threat, china is a growing threat, ignorance is a growing threat... |

I gotta admit that McCain is growing on me (mainly because I think he's gonna win),maybe he wont be that bad. But this stuff about Palin is just weird. Its disturbing that any public official would attempt to ban any book.This is a fundamental right of free speech in all democratic nations. This is what our brave soldiers are fighting for. Its bizarre and I think it may even be unconstitutional.Im trying to be fair to this woman and give her a chance but this is a VERY serious issue.

I am sure the IT guys in Alaskan state government are pretty busy now.
The press worldwide and many private citizens are hitting government sites like crazy looking for all kinds of information. I tried off and on for a couple days to get onto several of their government sites without success. |

This is not something new and she is not the only one who has pushed this. They have been trying to ban the Harry potter books for Ions, Personally I have all the movies and I love them, but when it comes down to it, I pick and choose what is My Book Lbrary and as long as they don't tell me that I am not allowed to read it...... _____________________________________________ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_debates_over_Harry_Potter |
