Kerry could just address the points in the book and disprove them.


But that might hurt what little is left of his political career.

Kerry's real fear factor is showing. Banning books? What country in what century are we?

So I guess that means that there are no more liberal books coming out for this election season?

I'm with the Kerry camp!

Let's start by banning all Bush-bashing books.

Then we'll move to any cookbooks including tofu recipes.

Followed by any "Be a Mime in Six Easy Steps" instruction manuals...

Well I am glad Kerry's team is taking a stand against Micheal Moore's to be released book, 'Fahrenheit 911'.

Kerry is now advocating suppression of information and the freedom of speech. I wonder how many leftwing bookstores will gladly ban UFC and carry every Bush bashing book out there.

Free speech for me, but not for you.

Did anyone hear the caller on Hannity's radio show yesterday? She said she called a Borders book store yesterday, and the manager told her that "the book was being recalled due to all the lies". Can you believe this????

John Kerry is shooting himself in the foot.

Oh this would be great. Bush hasn't called for ONE of the hundreds of hit books about him to be "banned", or "not sold", or anything similar, in the past four years, but the DEMOCRATIC candidate will? This is too good to be true. I gotta be dreaming.

"Kerry could just address the points in the book and disprove them. But that might hurt what little is left of his political career."

They would 'ban' the truth; while Michael Moore gets an 'off the 'charts'celebratory status . . .

Would say 'go figure'; but for the lying Left; it just does.
