    See I do because it shows a defect of character. If she is willing to ban books she finds questionable then who is to say that it will end with a few books.

    True, but I think she has much more apparent problems; I wouldn't expect a Palin presidency to lead to massive book-bannings...I think the country is beyond that by now.

    No I don't think there would be mass book burning but I wouldn't put it past the masses to join in on a book burning if it came to it.

    it's not the actions as much as it is the mind set....

    Exactly. Banning a few books in some small Alaskan town, in the grand scheme of things, isn't that big of a deal. It's her ideology that anything she finds questionable, and now one is sure what she may find questionable now or in the future, she be banned.

    I can not believe the thought of even burning books. It all just discusts me any more.
