"In a joint press release issued Friday, New Jersey Assemblywomen Joan Quigley and Linda Stender say they want New Jersey retailers to "ban the sale of [Coulter's] book throughout the state."

Well, words have meaning Mike. I can agree that Quigly and Stender are not calling for a Government ban on the book. But they are asking for someone else to "ban" the book. They are not asking for a "boycott," they are asking for a "ban."

It's close but no cigar.

The government officials are "asking" private citizens to "ban" these books form their retail stores.

Private citizens can ban and government officials can ask.

Anyway, these two air head politicians need to be banned from office next voting cycle.
