King doesn’t do subtle. In the book Stillson is a Bible salesman who kicks a dog. In the Green Mile, an abusive orderly at a nursing home drives off and his car has a Newt Gingrich sticker on it. In a terrible book called Lisey’s Story, a woman has mental issues and to test her cognitive abilities, a cop asks her to name the president. “George W. Bush, unfortunately.” I didn’t read it, but I understand Under the Dome has Sarah Palin-bashing. King doesn’t do subtle.
Hateful leftist propaganda (is there any other kind ?). I tried to watch the CBS series version of “Under the Dome”, got a few minutes into it and there was the in-your-face lesbian storyline. Had enough of that crap.
