Big Bro Begins Book Purge

Havent heard about this, have you?

Children’s books burn, courtesy of the federal government.

If I had written this in 2007, you'd have said I was a right-wing conspiracist.
{added} To clarify.. that was last year, Pelosi, Reid and co got that through. Bush signed it. It's for the Chirrun, you know!

Well, there's much more to come.. in fact the Messiah and his archangels are making faster progress than even I imagined.

 

good try Don but about as silly as your "Alinsky and Obama dont exchange notes"

http://c3library.com/2009/01/05/cpsia-and-libraries/

Now there's a couple sites that say "Whew, the CPSC has clarified it. Big sigh of relief!"

Well, here's the 'clarification':

so.. where's the clarification? I sure dont see it.

Pretty damn sure you know what I'm getting at. More than one way to control stuff. and I SURE aint been desperate for Dem bashing fodder.. in fact the whole mess is so depressing I havent wanted to post.


What if I'd gotten upset over Obama suborning the census? Why bother! He's already paying off ACORN big. Let them run the census too.

 

Just as there was no evidence that 'climate Change' warnings as preached by Goreacle was anything but a genuine concern for our planet and not a long-term strategy to manage resources and commerce*. Well now the concensus of scientists that are actually IN the climate sciences is saying .. uh, no.
While Obama appoints a molecular scientist to make SURE we dont get more nukes, coal, drilling and use of tar-sands*. It makes wish I could come across that guy and debate in a bar at happy hour.

Lead and Asbestos content has been a boondoggle for decades, now it's convenient that chinese toys having opened up the subject gives credence to the need to take old books out of circulation*.
No.... it's not a great international plot. It's just a happy circumstance.. for the socialist world.
After all we will need NEW books to replace those that chicken little mommies will haul off to the haz-mat disposal*.

As Obama's Political Commissar said: "It would be a shame to waste a perfectly good crisis and we arent going to." And I assume that meant any crisis. Not just one that gives Dems a chance to pay off ACORN for all their good work*. In the past and future.

It's YOU that wears the tinfoil hat of hope and change, my friend.

* Do I need add: 'make some friends pretty wealthy?'

Well, I have some conservative friends who intend to cash in on it, too. Actually anyone can.. long as you just TRACK the kool-aid and dont drink it.

 

Dont let the fact that I voted for McCain get in the way, either. In fact you 'supported' Maverick with just about the same enthusiasm I did.

Sorta, like Hero of the Masses Montel Williams

Google: Results 1 - 10 of about 2,780 for montel obama coin ripoff.

- heh

 

Things just keep getting more ridiculous dont they. So are all the libraries going to get rid of their books that are pre 1985?

Yeah, so many kids over the last 100 years have gotten lead poisoning from their books. Exactly like asbsstos, something to frighten people into spending money.

 

You mean other than the fact that people DIE from asbestos-related diseases?

This is stupid but it's (SHOCKINGLY) hardly the Big Brother conspiracy 'fog is making it out to be.

 

..first books, then kids clothes.

... people die from choking on food... and asbestosis comes from spending years in asbestos plants, grinding brake shoes to fit and spraying asbestos on pipes and metal shields.
NOT from going to schools that use asbestos tile and insulation, that 'FALLS OFF' in shreds!

IT"S NOT A FUCKING CONSPIRACY, DUMBASS.. it's a result of overreach in statutory legislation.
I didnt say it WAS a conspiracy.. I said well meaning drones that pass this shit and get hired to enforce this shit create consequences.

People that have no fucking experience in the real world thus have no fuycking common sense... just as you apparently dont to say that!

And so do the people who believe this shit and vote for those FUCKING HYPOCRITES!.
And it's the 'little people' get hurt the worst.

Now GEE... did I need MY TINFOIL HAT hat to see that coming? No it's my FUCKING COMMON SENSE saw that coming... but NOT IN KID'S secondhand clothes. IT takes a fucking bureaucrat, put in place because of YOUR .. VOTES for a Democrat to do that.

And this is exactly why I'm not posting.. see I said I'd wait a week, but it's the little shit stuff like this that sets me off.

I see the BIG PICTURE IN LITTLE things and some.... calls me a 'conspiracist'

- putting my head in the paper bag, now {breathe, breathe....}
Then do an edit to remove incendiaries...

 

RE: ..first books, then kids clothes.

And BTW... I suggest some of you RE READ Orwell's 1984 and Animal Farm... evidently you didnt 'get it' the first time around.

THEN read Ayn Rand's 'Atlas Shrugged'. It's selling very very well, as if people saw something coming.

 

Beat me to it, Don.

 

Re: ..first books, then kids clothes.

So, I'm sorry... the point is that we shouldn't be removing asbestos from buildings? That's the boondoggle you're talking about?

 

RE: Re: ..first books, then kids clothes.

One lump or two, Mr. Fog??

 

Re: ..first books, then kids clothes.

When I write in detail, you say you skim over... when I make a general point you divert.. NoI didnt say that. The point is OVERENFORCEMENT CAUSING PAIN!

Watch TV you MORONS!!!!! "ME-SO-THE-LI-OMA"... now YOUR advocates for the Little guys... like John Edwards say there's "Second-hand" asbestosis.

Rest of you just continue this... after caterwauling about Dubya FASCISM, you see it RIGHT IN FRONT of you... transition to a National Socialist State.
and you point back at Dubya... who certainly set the stage, in his attempts at bi-partisanship.
Well... isnt that special!

 

RE: Re: ..first books, then kids clothes.

I made my point! YOu ... ignored it... point out the tinfoil hats at the Boston Globe; ...

 

And it's own CPSC advisory.

Now here's the thing.. the handbook makes a big deal out of 'you are not required to test' but the other verbiage suggests to anyone with a modicum of common sense that it is not worth it to even attempt to buy andor sell anything made for sub-teens.

obviously, you'll see libraries either trash a lot of old classics or put them into a sequester for 'researchers only'.

Now who's got the tinfoil hat?

 

Don... in no way is this an 'administration' conspiracy. It doesnt have to be.

It's a part of the same cult wave that exalts a personality in a political arena.

I'm pretty sure if you parse that sentence for keywords you will get my drift.

Tell you what... in a year or so, go to a flea market and try to find some 'Little Golden Books' of our childhoods.
Obviously you also wont find 'Little Black Sambo'

You calling Ray Bradbury a 'Tinfoil Hat', too? The only problem in F451 was Bradbury underestimated the power of negative thinking... there's more than ONE way to marginalize things you dont like.

Or how about 'The Landmark book Series*'? You thinkthis sitewill still be up in a year? It may be.. but they will have to find an angle, right?

These illustrate the contribution of my parents {Mom's idea, but dad made the sacrifice} to my self-education. And they followed that with the Reader's Digest Condensed Book series.

* Check out the titles and authors on that list... then compare to what Kidread offers today. Interesting, no? Esp check out the 'faq' and 'fast facts' purportedly about the book series.

I'll pass on the obvious comment on Kidsread mascot: 'Booker T Worm'. If I were really a tinfoil hat I could see an angle there... but I dont think bleeding heart libs are smart enough to use that one. Or are they?
