[kj] OT - List of books Sarah Palin wanted banned

[Alexander Smith]

We're just going to go in circles with this and not convince each  
other of anything. I don't know how you can listen to the words that  
spill directly out of Palin's mouth and not feel abject contempt. It's  
astounding, really. But -- to each their own.

You do know, by the way, that Evangelical Christians aren't interested  
in the "Holy Land" out of any concern for the Jews, right? You do know  
that, don't you? As far a they're concerned, Israelis are ultimately  
squatters until "The Rapture" comes. You might want to consider that.
