Unquestionably, there are loons supporting either side, and the book-banners
probably supported Bush (if not Buchanan, who's truly out there), but I live
in Texas, put some time into looking at Bush, and this is *not* the sort of
thing he does. Calm down. All Republicans are not the "religious right." And
not all religious people are nuts--judging from the ones in a couple of
church libraries who have slavered thanks on me for donating Potter books,
since they were getting so many requests.

I can see disagreeing on issues, but why does everyone seem to think Bush is
evil incarnate? And even if he were, do you all think everyone in Washington
will just say "how high" when he says "jump"? The president isn't
omnipowerful.
