Earlier this week, I posted that John McCain had picked “sexy librarian” as his running mate. (If we're going with librarian stereotypes, we should also mention that McCain personifies “Grumpy Old Man”, Obama is “Keener Weiner” and Biden is “that one city councilor who supports the library but probably never sets foot in the door”.)
Anyhow, I have to issue a retraction. Apparently Sarah Palin is as far from sexy librarian as you can get.
Stein says that as mayor, Palin continued to inject religious beliefs
into her policy at times. “She asked the library how she could go about
banning books,” he says, because some voters thought they had
inappropriate language in them. “The librarian was aghast.” That woman,
Mary Ellen Baker, couldn't be reached for comment, but news reports
from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire Baker for not
giving “full support” to the mayor.
Oh, and Palin's in full favour of abstinence education programs too!
