"Why would it be an issue at all? Anticipating an attack from the even-further-right?

Improbable."

Hardly improbable!!   There are plenty of people who wish to control what people think and read.

Frankly, if the question were asked on a job interview, I don't think anyone would think twice. This has only become an issue because of who Palin is.   

There are plenty of other question marks with this wacko, and I'm beginning to think this is simply a right-wing diversion. Keep the public questioning a non-story on a hot trigger issue and the bigger issues with less press will float buy. The press will soon paint the people who question her "book banning" as the demons and wackos. It is not far fetched.

Her religious beliefs and how it will play on her decisions is of more concern. Her views on abortion alone is enough to scare the hell out of me. This woman cannot be put near the White House.

They are too damn scared to put her in front of the press.   Lovable Charlie Gibson gets the first shot at her.   They know her cracks will show if she gets grilled by the hard core press.
