[Marxism] Books Palin tried to ban

[David Thorstad <binesi@xxxxxxxxx>]

It seems possible that the list of books Sarah Palin allegedly tried to 
ban as mayor of the Alaska podunk (see my earlier post) is a hoax. Many 
of the books fall into the category of books right-wingers have long 
sought to ban from school libraries. Whether Palin herself attempted to 
get them banned is not reliably determined, it seems. I have written the 
alleged compiler (a professor at the University of Wisconsin), but 
haven't received a reply yet. A google search turns up a number of sites 
about the list, including a /Los Angeles Times/ article that does not 
entirely lay to rest the issue. Here is one of the sites that claims the 
list is a hoax, for what it's worth.
