1. It would be interesting to know what else was in the pamphlet

They probably slipped some words from the Declaration of Independence in with a bunch of obviously inappropriate material, so that when the pamphlet was banned over the latter was banned, they could claim it was over the former. An old trick, if that's what was done.

2. Of course!

I read the article when it was posted earlier. Whoever wrote the original headline just wanted to stir up the fundies.

Don't we have enough trouble without the media promoting even more??

3. A sanctimonious rigt wing radio host in LA was in a snide,

sneering little tizzy about this yesterday. Now that the right controls all the government and the press - they're going to be reduced to making up little things like this on talk radio to whip up and whip saw their 'audiences'. Since there is no one else for them to hate and they are responsible for the government - what else will they have to blather and bloviate about?

4. Another bit of sensationalism that drudge removed

without so much as an explanation.

Time to demand why, via his "scoops" box...

5. Blogs aren't LBN

Post the link directly to the Reuters story if you want to post in LBN.
