4. Reading should probably be banned and punished with a long jail sentence... |
|
It would glamorize it and young people will start reading, exchanging, and probably even stealing books, any kind.. JUST KIDDING, HONEST!!!

5. The local RW'ers gained power in county politics, |
|
cut funding for libraries, started to petition for certain books to be removed from school libraries, and added several extremely RW POV books to community college libraries. These people love ignorance, fear readers. I hope they will be retreating soon if we win the election.

7. From the White House bio: |
|
"Mrs. Bush has a special place in her heart for books and libraries"
Or not. Why doesn't she give him hell about things like this?
