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.

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.


So did Bill Clinton, Operation Desert Fox, Killed about 600 to 2000 Iraqis, You can see on my Previous posts
waving What do you think about this bookbanning issue kerbear? smile2 It looks like there may be something to some of this?smile2


I am not exactly a Fan of book banning. but it is not exactly Banning it all together, More like banning from the library, But as long as you can still buy the books...
:smile: But why would someone want to take books out that are already in the library?:smile: Especially books that are considered classic by popular acclaim.:smile: Those books are the kinda books libraries are supposed to have.:smile:


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......

:smile: But its obvious that Harry Potter books are going to be considered classics. Stephen King books are considered classics now. I just had an entire college course that was mostly discussion of Stephen King. So J.K. Rowling will be the same way. People used to want to ban Mark Twain from libraries as well. The public libraries are there to provide access to popular (and controversial) literature to people who otherwise cant afford to buy them.:smile:

Well, the Mark Twain books, you can blame that on Political Correctness..


Much modern scholarship of Huckleberry Finn has focused on its treatment of race. Many Twain scholars have argued that the book, by humanizing Jim and exposing the fallacies of the racist assumptions of slavery, is an attack on racism.[15] Others have argued that the book falls short on this score, especially in its depiction of Jim.[11] According to Professor Stephen Railton of the University of Virginia, Twain was unable to fully rise above the stereotypes of black people that white readers of his era expected and enjoyed. Twain therefore resorted to minstrel show-style comedy to provide humor at Jim's expense, and ended up confirming rather than challenging late-19th century racist stereotypes.[16]

I agree mirror it is an important discussion. and i for one would not ever ban/burn a book. not even pornography, lol.
I could research it, and havent....but GUT instinct would tell me that Palin did not try to ban all the books on that list.
and if the list is a figment of somebody's imagination..then I would question if she just inquired about having A book banned just to see what it would take. I will admit at this point...I am curious on what it takes to get a book banned from a library or even all libraries.
just for curiosities sake.

Sarah Palin is intelligent, personable, and most effective and engaging as she demonstrated in her acceptance speach tuesday night last.

She is a self declared 'bible believing' fundamentalist christian, and 'political reformer'. As such, and in keeping with their beliefs, they see 'evil' in numerous places, including BOOKS on public library shelves.

It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that a bible believing fundamentalist christian WILL PUT RELIGION AHEAD OF STATE!!!

Sarah Palin is intelligent, personable, and most effective and engaging as a human being. She is also very clear in the positions and convictions she will be championing if elected Vice-president, a stone throw away from President.

If you are a bible believing religious fundamentalist, NRA card carrying member, ennemy of free choice, and a die-hard conservative, vote for the McCain-Palin ticket.

If on the other hand you are 'moderate' anything (republican, democrat or independent), the choice is just as clear the other way: STAY WELL AWAY FROM THE McCain-Palin ticket!!!

No need for personal attacks, or inaccurate associations, Sarah Palin's positions couldn't be more explicit, and THE CHOICE COULDN'T BE CLEARER!!!

She is a self declared 'bible believing' fundamentalist christian, and 'political reformer'. As such, and in keeping with their beliefs, they see 'evil' in numerous places, including BOOKS on public library shelves.

It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that a bible believing fundamentalist christian WILL PUT RELIGION AHEAD OF STATE!!!

Sarah Palin is intelligent, personable, and most effective and engaging as a human being. She is also very clear in the positions and convictions she will be championing if elected Vice-president, a stone throw away from President.

If you are a bible believing religious fundamentalist, NRA card carrying member, ennemy of free choice, and a die-hard conservative, vote for the McCain-Palin ticket.

If on the other hand you are 'moderate' anything (republican, democrat or independent), the choice is just as clear the other way: STAY WELL AWAY FROM THE McCain-Palin ticket!!!

No need for personal attacks, or inaccurate associations, Sarah Palin's positions couldn't be more explicit, and THE CHOICE COULDN'T BE CLEARER!!!
offtopic



I'm afraid it is YOUR 'off topic' gizzmo that is ...

Could it be she doesn't feel that public monies should be spent on having these books rather than the books thenselves?

Hell I've read a lot of those books on the list. I think I am still a regestered Rep. but I generally disagree with those who ban books.
