    The Perverse Vulgarity Of Book Banning

    Columnists Jim Hightower - 0

    Excuse me for using explicit language here, but it seems to me that today’s most vulgar expression of right-wing extremist dogma is its unhealthy obsession with banning books. It’s a political perversion that, ironically, its participants usually rationalize by claiming they are “battling vulgarity.” And, boy, are they hot to trot! Of course, pious book-banners […]
