What's On Your Reading List? (Wednesday, September 3, 2008)

Sarah Palin, the Republican nominee for Vice President, is scary. I found an article about her from Time, with such wonderful details as:

...As mayor, Palin continued to inject religious beliefs into her policy at times. "She asked the library how she could go about banning books..." because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them. "The librarian was aghast..." News reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire Baker [the librarian] for not giving "full support" to the mayor.

I'm not sure what "values" the Republican base holds dear, but this isn't a value that I can stomach.
