Sarah Palin isn’t a big fan of “Daddy’s Roommate”.
Ok, I’m sure this doesn’t really come as a shock to anyone but Sarah Palin, that weird unblinking hunchback running to be John McCain’s understudy, doesn’t approve of you and your dang alternative lifestyle. And she most certainly does not want anyone, least of all herself, reading books about it.
…in 1995, Ms. Palin, then a city councilwoman, told colleagues that she had noticed the book “Daddy’s Roommate” on the shelves and that it did not belong there, according to Ms. Chase and Mr. Stein. Ms. Chase read the book, which helps children understand homosexuality, and said it was inoffensive; she suggested that Ms. Palin read it.
“Sarah said she didn’t need to read that stuff,” Ms. Chase said. “It was disturbing that someone would be willing to remove a book from the library and she didn’t even read it.”
Ah yes. Good old fashioned family themed intolerance! You ever notice they never read the books?
