15. Getting an actual list is very important. As long as no names are attached,
the notion of censorship is abstract. When people find out that she wanted this book or that book banned, they'll see her for the Fascist she is!

13. Is there a real list out there somewhere? Or is this an 'urban legend'?
If she really did want to ban books, and there is a real list, I'm sending extra copies to her hometown library! With all the junk that was out there about Obama and Clinton, I'm taking all the junk about Palin with a grain of salt.

14. She probably had one, but didn't actually discuss it with the librarian.
It was brought up as a "theoretical question". She then tried to get the librarian fired shortly after the refusal. Now she claims it was just a "loyalty test." Any lists I've seen of books she wanted banned are suspect (some of the titles weren't even published at the time of the incident.)

The titles aren't really important, it's the idea of banning books.

16. The GOP has probably bought the librarian a nice new winter house in AZ
to help her forget the whole affair.
