Limbaugh went on to note that the popular Democratic Underground website named DeBrecht to its "Top 10 Conservative Idiots" list, and that the highly trafficked left-wing blog Daily Kos likened her book to Nazi propaganda

Ok....Let's keep reading.

The book is being hailed by traditional values advocates as an alternative to liberal books such as "Rainbow Fish" (where a fish is hectored into giving away his beautiful scales so that all the fish look the same) and "King & King" (where two princes marry each other and adopt a little girl), which are often found in our nation's classrooms.

If that isn't Marxist-Leninist propaganda, then I'm not sure what is. But of course, Nazis are worse than Communists. Always. /sarcasm

I just checked Amazon and the book is Number 10 overall vs. HP and the Halfblood Prince is at Number 2.

HP has been out for months, it sold millions of copies in ONE DAY. Millions of children partied the night it came out. JK Rowling did a reading at a castle. Limbaugh mentions it and it has a blip in sales.

I agree with a previous post. Kids need to be taught social skills about debate and facts. Questions like: How to you prove something in a debate, what are logical fallacies, how do you gracefully deal with someone that disagrees with your opinions, what is the difference between opinion and fact?

But if it is age appropriate, cool. But it is not selling MILLIONS.
