I was kinda wondering that too, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. So far, everything seems to be hearsay.

...in my view, it is not good to say "How do I ban books?" and leave it at that versus "Yeah, some of her constituents wanted her to do something about what got in the library and she asked the librarian about it." And that she also resisted some of the things the more zealous of her supporters wanted. I also don't like the bringing of national issues into a small, local race nor the firing of everyone.

Sure is a lot more to talk about than her preggo daughter.

It's more like lets sling this and see if it sticks...

P.S. The NY Times has lost a lot of credibility of the last 5 years or so because of its attempt to elevate their liberal views and pass disinformation on conservatives... Sounds like a blog??

They quoted someone in Alaska. Biographies do that all the time, when they're trying, in general, to introduce how the people feel about that someone.

I guess ESPN, The History Channel and Fox News are all blogs as well.

It's most annoying when they start a new thread about something that is already being discussed

Hmm, someone gets canned, complains about the one who canned them, never seen that before. Could be she just fires incompetents, thats a possibility.

Tom Sawyer comes to mind for some reason.

oh, I know, there was ONE WORD in the book that was considered offensive.
So, as long as someone finds offense, it should be ok to ban. based on the previous actions of the left.
I'd like to see the movie Song of the South on Television and watch reruns of the old Amos n' Andy shows on TV land. banned by the Lefties.

YouTube - Is This Racist? Song of the South Clip

Zip ah Dee Doo Daa lefties.

Yep, I'd classify that as interesting.
