Dewey Decimated System?........

The ALA is dominated by Marxists. Its a wonder they haven't purged our libraries of politically incorrect books - yet.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

The governing council of the ALA says it has expressed "deep concern" about the jailed librarians but refuses to recognize that book collections in their libraries were burned. And the ALA council — in defiance of a Jan. 25, 2006 poll in the official American Libraries e-mail newsletter, AL Direct, in which 76 percent of the rank-and-file membership urged emancipation — continues its refusal to call for the release of what some ALA leaders deride as "so-called librarians."

Yet the library associations of Poland, Estonia, Latvia, the Czech Republic and Slovakia have vigorously demanded their release. Those countries know what it is to live under communism.

At the ALA conference, a Freadomista flyer ended with a reminder from Martin Luther King Jr., whose biography was burned by Castro judges: "In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies but the silence of our friends."

If you wait for significant numbers of leftists to rise against a communist state in defense of your liberty, you’ll die disappointed in prison.

Nat Hentoff will be there, but he’ll probably be by himself.

The ALA is dominated by fringe nutjobs who are ignored by 90% of librarians.

Moore answered that he asked only about Cuba's health care system while he was there.

One of the Lefts most important tools of propaganda is asking the correct questions of the correct people so as to get the correct answers.

It is just like being a good lawyer never ask a question you don’t know the answer to.

Of course Moore knows that if he asks the wrong questions in Cuba he never get invited back.

At the Washington meeting of the ALA, there were counterdemonstrators with such signs as "Defend the Cuban Revolution!" and "'Independent' Libraries Are A FRAUD!" One passerby — wearing an official ALA identification tag — looked at the Freadomistas signs, refused to take a flyer and snarled, "I am on the other side."

You can't make it much clearer than that. Hentoff is an old lefty who actually believes in the ideals that got him there and acts on them. This particular ALA cockroach believes in something that is incompatible with human freedom. Choose your side.

Makes me feel better that there are some sane librarians out there....other than me :)

American Library Association members calling anyone or anything “FreAdomistas” ? ? ? ?

Make ‘em write “The Spel checquer is my friend.” 100 times.

Apologies to Harry Potter, et al.
